Private Catering Near Me in Edgware: a taste of Chit Chaat
Searching for private catering near me in Edgware? Here is a look at the food and the room waiting for you at 135 High Street, Barnet.




Bringing an Edgware party over to Barnet
Edgware station is on the Northern line's Edgware branch, which does not run to High Barnet, so the tube is not the quick option here. Driving is: allow around 15 to 20 minutes, and park in one of the two car parks around the restaurant. For larger family groups, sharing a few cars or booking a minicab often works out simplest, and it means people can enjoy the evening without watching the clock.
What makes the journey worthwhile is the food and the way it is served. A celebration might open with pani puri, which guests fill and eat in a single bite, alongside Punjabi samosas and palak patta chaat. The tandoor brings chicken tikka, paneer tikka and lamb seekh kebab, and large plates such as dal makhani, chicken curry and lamb keema with pav follow, with garlic naan and tandoori roti. Halal meat, plenty of vegan and gluten-free choices and a completely nut- and seed-free kitchen help when you are hosting a big extended family.
If most of your guests live around Edgware and the Broadwalk and you would rather not ask them to travel, remember that Chit Chaat also offers catering. Shikha's business started out cooking for home parties, so if your living room or garden is the better setting, the team can bring the food to you. Send the details through the enquiry form and choose whichever suits your guests.

Questions from Edgware
Can I take the tube from Edgware to Chit Chaat?
Not directly. Edgware station is on the Edgware branch of the Northern line, while Chit Chaat is near High Barnet on the other branch, so the journey involves a change. Most Edgware guests drive instead, which takes around 15 to 20 minutes, and park in one of the two car parks around the restaurant.
Would you cater a party at our home in Edgware?
Catering is part of what Chit Chaat does, alongside private hire of the restaurant. Shikha Chadha started the business in 2018 catering home gatherings and larger parties across London. Send details of your event through the enquiry form at /private-catering/#enquire or call 07414 109555, and the team will discuss menus and how they can help.
What is a good menu for a large family celebration?
A generous approach is to start with pani puri, samosas and a chaat or two, then a mix of tandoor dishes such as chicken tikka and paneer tikka, followed by dal makhani, a lamb or chicken curry and a biryani with breads. Gulab jamun with vanilla ice cream makes a sweet finish. The team can advise on quantities.
