Searching for private catering near me in Totteridge? Here is a look at the food and the room waiting for you at 135 High Street, Barnet.




Totteridge to the High Street for a private dinner
Getting a Totteridge party to Chit Chaat is straightforward. By car, it is a short drive from Totteridge Lane up to Barnet, with two car parks around the restaurant. If guests would like a drink without worrying about driving, Totteridge & Whetstone station is just one stop from High Barnet on the Northern line, and the walk from High Barnet to 135 High Street takes around ten minutes.
For a celebration with a little more polish, the cocktail bar is a good place to start while everyone arrives, alongside Indian soft drinks such as Thums Up, Limca and shikanji for those not drinking alcohol. At the table, lamb chops and malai chicken tikka from the tandoor, avocado chaat and palak patta chaat make a striking first course. Follow with fish curry, dal makhani and paneer makhani, plus cheese kulcha and chilli garlic naan. Rose milk cake is a pretty way to finish for a birthday.
Totteridge Green is a pleasant spot for a walk before a weekend lunch, and Saturday and Sunday opening runs right through the afternoon, which suits relaxed family celebrations that start early and finish late. For a work dinner or a client evening, weekday evenings from 17:30 are worth considering. Share the details in the enquiry form, and if a garden party at home is more your style, ask about catering instead.
