I cannot recommend these guys enough. Mark was super friendly and easy to chat to on our first zoom call. As an expert in this field, he made suggestions for is to consider that would make our lives easier and ensure we could have the best time. We took it all on board and he was so right! He was so responsive on email about anything we asked. Nothing was too much trouble.
The team on the day, headed by Chris were superb. They delivered all the food on time and even cut our cake for us. They had thoughts on where abouts to set up their kit on the day. It was even better than where we thought originally. They really know their stuff.
The food, let's be fair, the most important part, was simply sensational. Everyone was raving about the food. One of our guests enquired about travelling to them for his 40th birthday next year. He is deadly serious about that as well!
We had approximately 135 guests that day and they put on a lunch with big Pan's and sides, cut the cake a little time after and then put on a BBQ in the evening. All with ease, or at least it seemed like it to us.
They not only helped with food but we wanted a fridge trailer for drinks after seeing this another party. Man With A Pan were able to supply this also. That took something off our minds.
All this was done at a very reasonable price indeed! We had quotes that were far more. But those companies did far less, I.e were unable to supply the fridge trailer or did not have staff to clear up and hand out drinks. The staff made so much difference!
I could go on for ages about how epic they were. Thankyou so so much. -

Amazing food, best service!
Mark and the whole team were nothing but amazing. From the get go, they really helped us shape our food menu for our wedding in Hampshire, fine tuning it to our specific needs and also adapting to the ever changing number of guests that me and my partner were figuring out with the wedding.
The tasting day was one of our personal highlights when planning our wedding, then Carla the front out house manager took everything we had planned and ran with it seamlessly so we did not bat an eye lid during the day.
At the event, the food was highlighted by multiple guests, and i can safely say that no glass was left unfilled. The staff were professional and fun. No questions at all during the run up or day of, just solutions matched with incredible food and service.
Cannot recommend them enough|!
Unfortunately i don't have any good images of the food or staff. But here is a photo of my groomsmen chowing down on some cake, which, the Marks team beautifully curated and sliced up after for our guests to have! -

We were completely blown away by Mark and his team at Man with a Pan. We decided to go for a fully vegetarian menu for our wedding, and the feedback from our guests was phenomenal - everybody absolutely LOVED the food (even the hardcore meat-eaters were raving about it!).
Communication in the lead-up was great - Mark and Clara were across everything and gave us complete peace of mind. On the day, the team ran everything seamlessly, from start to finish, including the evening bar. We’d asked that no guest ever have an empty glass, and they absolutely delivered - attentive, friendly, and effortlessly on top of everything.
The food was incredible, the service was impeccable, and we honestly couldn’t have asked for more. Thank you so much to Mark and the entire team for making our day so special. If you’re considering booking them, don’t hesitate - just do it! -

Alex Sent on 01/09/2025Perfect Caterer for our Big Day
We used Man With A Pan for the catering of our wedding and absolutely loved the service they provided. The food was brilliant, plentiful, varied, and made on time. Our guests were all going up for seconds (and some thirds). Mark was very helpful regarding food choices and preparation and Carla was amazing at organising all the finer details that we had no clue about! On our big day, Carla was brilliant and sought us out with food and drinks to make sure that we were having a perfect time.
I cannot recommend Man With A Pan enough! -

Our day went perfectly thanks to all the help from Man With A Pan. We're so glad we opted with the buffet style, which made our lives so much easier. The food was superb and everyone went back for seconds.
Mark and Carla were both super helpful and flexible. Working with us to decide on staffing for our bar, as well as the flow of the day.
We couldn't recommend them enough! -

Superb food
Mark and his team were really professional. All of the communication was responsive and on point. The food was sensational! We had a wedding bbq and then evening food. People are still raving about the food two weeks on. People have said it is the best wedding food they ever had. The staff made sure that we as the couple were well catered for even when we were busy. Liz was great! -

We were absolutely thrilled with the catering for our wedding at Poppydown Vineyard. From start to finish, the team were an absolute dream to work with – communication was excellent from day one, and everything ran so smoothly on the day.
The food was outstanding – the canapés, paella, salads, and desserts were all beautifully presented and completely delicious. Our guests are still talking about the evening mac and cheese, which was the perfect way to round off the celebrations!
The staff were incredibly professional, friendly, and accommodating throughout. Nothing was too much trouble, and their calm, attentive service really helped make the day feel special and relaxed.
We honestly couldn’t recommend them highly enough – thank you for helping make our wedding day so memorable! -
