Buffet delivery to Tavistock and the moor’s edge
From the town and Pannier Market to the surrounding villages and country-house venues, we deliver buffets for the events Tavistock books: parties, christenings, wakes, market and community events, and country-house gatherings. Cold finger buffets start at £7.95pp, fork buffets from £13.25pp and hot buffets from £16.95pp — all inclusive of VAT and, above the free-delivery threshold, delivery.
We ask for the time you’d like to eat, not just a drop-off slot, and aim to arrive around 30 minutes before — so a cold spread is at its best and a hot buffet arrives hot in thermal units. Every menu is built around your guests’ dietary needs at no extra charge.
