A fantastic, creative, wonderful team to work with. Arch was the caterer for our annual corporate event in Mayfair and they were brilliant in the creative / design phase all up to delivery on the night. Gorgeous food... would definitely recommend.

Why Choose Arch for Your London Event?

Bespoke Menus, Built Around You

No two events are the same. We create menus from scratch based on your event format, guest list, dietary requirements, and season. Our founder trained at Le Cordon Bleu, and our chefs bring backgrounds spanning Italian, Japanese, and international fine dining to every event we cater.

Genuinely Sustainable Catering

Sustainability isn't a marketing line at Arch — it's baked into how we operate. We use responsibly sourced, seasonal ingredients from trusted UK and European suppliers. We deliver in biodegradable or reusable packaging, minimise waste through fermenting and preserving, and commit to reducing our carbon footprint by 10% every year.

All Dietary Requirements Catered For

Our menus are designed to make sure no guest is an afterthought. We cater for vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, and other dietary needs as standard — with the same level of care and creativity as everything else on the table.

Seamless Service from Start to Finish

Our events team brings nearly 10 years of experience managing events at venues including the British Museum, Somerset House, the Science Museum, and Tower of London. We know how to navigate London venues and make sure nothing goes wrong on the day.

Trusted by Leading London Brands

Arch has catered for Net-a-Porter, Condé Nast, Sainsbury's, GQ, and many more. Whether it's a private team dinner or a 500-person brand event, we bring the same care and quality to every brief.
