Giant Pan Catering in Exeter
Giant pan catering in Exeter is paella, curry or chilli cooked live in a one-metre pan in front of your guests, so the cooking is part of the event. Our cook team works the pan on site through service and guests help themselves from the station, which suits festivals, weddings and street-food style gatherings. Prices start from £12.25pp including VAT, and cover the food, the equipment and the setup. The cook team is included in that price, and vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options carry no surcharge. We travel to Exeter from our Redruth kitchen, about 2 hours away, and cover it regularly. On site we need a level space of roughly three by six metres and vehicle access — nothing else, no kitchen and no power. Serving usually runs to around ninety minutes, and we agree the timings with you well before the day itself.
Exeter: As Devon's county city, Exeter hosts a wide range of corporate events, university functions, and celebrations. We travel regularly for larger bookings.
Popular events around Exeter include university events, corporate conferences, and cathedral functions. We cover Exeter and the area around Exeter Cathedral, Royal Albert Memorial Museum, and University of Exeter.
