Catering a Hunter celebration often means cooking somewhere with no commercial kitchen: a vineyard lawn, a paddock marquee or the house your group has rented for the weekend. The caterers here split along those lines. The Wilderness Chef brings its self-contained Wilderness Kitchen to estates and marquees with nothing on site, and Billy Goat Catering cooks charcoal BBQ feasts, shared banquets and canapés on location with chef and waitstaff included.
For a dinner where you're staying, Hunter Valley Catering runs in-villa chef dinners from its Pokolbin kitchen, setting the table, serving and doing the washing up, while Monkey Place Catering in Broke supplies crockery, cutlery and table settings with its private chef service. Fennel & Co. Catering works from the venue end: it is in-house at Cezans at Krinklewood and on the preferred list at Cooinda Pokolbin and Stonehurst Cedar Creek, so check whether your venue already has a caterer before shopping around.
Per-head starting prices: Billy Goat Catering From $56 per person, Monkey Place Catering From $88 per person and Hunter Valley Catering From $104 per person. The Wagon Bar, a rustic horse float bar with RSA staff pouring the drinks you buy, starts From $1,720. Miss Mays Events, run by stylist Alice May, sets out styled luxury picnics at $55 per person.
