Exceptional service from start to finish. Mark, Carla and the wider team really could not have done more to make our wedding day feel very special. From early enquiries, to the (phenomenal) tasting evening to the wedding day itself we felt very well looked after and in safe, experienced hands. So many options to choose from, but we would fully endorse the Thai menu, the food was phenomenal. We would have no hesitation in recommending the team for a wedding and wish we could do the whole day again with them alongside us!

We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better service from Man with a Pan for our wedding at Harewood Forrest.

The attention to detail was immaculate. From first enquiry the communication was second to none and very clear.

Claire organised all the front of house and the whole team were so helpful, friendly and professional. Nothing was too much trouble, which meant we could concentrate on enjoying our wedding day without having to worry about the logistics.

The cost was very comparable with other companies we looked at, but the standard was amazing. The BBQ and salads were fantastic, and the different pastas were absolutely delicious. So many of our guests commented on how good the food was.

The team even ran our Hugo Spritz bar, cleaned everything up afterwards, packed everything away and even took care of all the rubbish. It really was a completely stress-free service from start to finish.

There are a lot of catering companies out there, but Man with a Pan really do stand out from the rest. We would highly recommend them to anyone looking for wedding catering. Fantastic food, fantastic service and a fantastic team.

Thank you to Claire, Mark, Carla and everyone at Man with a Pan for helping make our wedding day so special! ❤️

We used Man with a Pan for our wedding and couldn’t have been happier, Mark and his team’s food was absolutely brilliant and our guests loved it! Carla was amazing with her organisation for getting everyone fed and a was on point even when our timings went a bit skewiff on the day. Nothing was stressful and they made it look easy, we would highly recommend these guys to anyone catering an event!

Man With A Pan catering our wedding at Harewood Forest in August and were amazing! The food was incredible and the portion sizes were great, everyone had plenty to eat. We opted for the BBQ and everything was cooked so perfectly and there was a big variety to have. The desserts were also great, as were the fish & chips for our evening food. They were so helpful throughout the planning of the wedding and great on the day too, couldn't recommend them enough!

I would highly recommend Man With A Pan Catering.
Mark and his team are brilliant, really professional, friendly, and passionate about what they do. The food is always superb and everything is done to such a high standard. A great local catering business and one I’m always happy to recommend 😊

We couldn’t have had a better experience with the Man with a Pan team. We had so many people rave about how good the food was at our wedding which was a beautiful fresh and delicious bbq style with yummy canapés before and cute desserts in kilner jars. We had a number of veggies too who were really happy with the food. We also booked Carla as our on the day coordinator as an add-on and we both agree we couldn’t have done our wedding without her. She was amazing, went the extra mile and was a pleasure to deal with throughout. She managed suppliers and logistics and finished off jobs we couldn’t squeeze in like finishing off our favours and place settings complete with napkin folding and personally ironing a Mr & Mrs table runner I’d bought but forgot to iron the night before! Carla even left the venue to drive my bridesmaids to the church in the morning when we had a transport issue. She managed the catering staff and took so much stress off us so we could focus on having the best day and we did. 10/10 experience thank you!

Delicious food, and Carla was an absolute champion throughout our entire wedding. Whenever we needed ANYTHING we'd turn around and discover she'd already done it. Amazing service and top notch grub. Highly recommend.

A man with a pan recently catered our August wedding. Managing the entire process from start to finish, Communication was excellent.  We’ve received nothing but positive feedback about the delicious food on the day. The front of house staff and catering team were exceptional, working seamlessly with our wedding coordinator to ensure a flawless food service. I highly recommend them to anyone.

Man with a Pan was excellent in every way - Mark catered for our daughter's 21st and everybody thought the Paellas were delicious.
We even changed from desserts to canapes without giving much notice on what was probably the busiest of June weekends but he took it all in his stride and everything worked out perfectly.  His staff were courteous, efficient and helpful and literally no mess left behind.  Highly recommend!

We booked Man With a Pan for our garden wedding and they were fantastic. The planning with the team was really easy and they were very flexible with dietaries and other requests. On the day, all the guests commented on how great the food was and there was plenty of it which was super important to us! The staff were all absolutely lovely and kept the vibes of the bar up well into the evening. Highly recommend!
