About Us

Introducing Boxed Events Cambridge
Creative, innovative and professional caterers

At Boxed Events, we pride ourselves on having a team of creative professionals who are not only ideas-driven but champion inclusion and foster growth within the company.

Each and every one of our dedicated team members share an enthusiasm for success and a desire to exceed expectations with every event.

Our Food

Our mission is to deliver menus crafted with creativity, care and expertise.

We take great care in sourcing our produce locally and seasonally, always considering the impact on the environment with every event.

We are fortunate enough to be based among a series of local farms. Not only does this mean that much of our meat has a zero-mile impact, but we can also quite literally watch our produce grow in the surrounding fields.

A Note From James

Creating Inspiring Menus Since 2013

“Hello, I’m James. The Ideas Man and Company Director behind Boxed Events.
I enjoy taking people on a culinary journey that excites and inspires our wedding couples and clients.

Having honed my skills in France and later developing those in Southeast Asia, our menus reflect the fusion of flavours that these amazing places offer.

I am proud of what has been achieved and built over the years here at Boxed Events with my amazing team. Boxed Events has grown steadily and organically from a small team to where we are today. Our Head Chef, Operation manager, Event managers and our irreplaceable support team work together in harmony to deliver the perfect event. I am looking forward to taking the next exciting culinary journey with our couples and clients.”

Private birthday party
It doesn’t seem only a few weeks ago I was making sure everything went off with a big WOW! Actually, it did, thanks to James yourself and the team that you sent us.  David and the team worked well together. I hope you got the Thank You card. Will of course recommend you if any of my friends want a good caterer. With kind regards to all, Louise and Laurie Barber.

Private birthday Lunch
Dear James, Nick and Sarah, I want to thank you most sincerely for all the care and attention you put into my 80th birthday lunch on Saturday.  It was exactly what I wanted.  A lovely meal which we didn't have to worry about – we were just able to sit and enjoy.  The food was wonderful.  I am very glad we found you and asked you to provide the lunch. With our thanks and good wishes.

Private buffet
I’m grateful to your catering team at our family baptism at Wesley House on Saturday. Everything went smoothly and the food was delicious. Best wishes,
David
