Food for East Barnet parties, from Oak Hill Park to your front room
East Barnet has a strong neighbourhood feel, built around the old village, the green space of Oak Hill Park and streets of family homes. A lot of entertaining here happens at home: children's birthdays, a summer get-together that needs more than burgers, a housewarming, or relatives visiting for a festival weekend. The short drive from our Barnet kitchen over to East Barnet means hot food reaches you promptly.
For a children's party, masala fries, achari paneer tikka and tandoori chicken go down well, and our kids menu at the restaurant shows how gently we can cook. For adults, add aloo tikki chole chaat, lamb chops or lamb seekh kebabs, then palak paneer kofta, chicken tikka masala and chicken biryani with naan. If many of your guests are vegan or vegetarian, we will build the meal around plant-based dishes and confirm which ones suit them before the day. Sticky toffee cake is a reliable crowd-pleaser for mixed ages.
If you are hosting near New Barnet station or close to the park, give us the address and timing in your enquiry so we can plan the journey. Use the enquiry form, call 07414 109555 or email bookings@chitchaat.co. We will talk through numbers, dishes and dietary needs with you before anything is confirmed, so there are no surprises on the day and you can relax with your guests.

Questions from East Barnet
Can you cater a children's birthday party in East Barnet?
Yes. Children's parties are easy to plan with milder dishes such as tandoori chicken, achari paneer tikka and masala fries. Because the kitchen is nut- and seed-free, parents have one less thing to worry about. Tell us the age range and rough numbers when you enquire and we will suggest a menu.
How do you get the food over to East Barnet?
We prepare everything at our Barnet kitchen, about 2 miles away, and bring it over to your address. Share the venue, timings and any access notes in your enquiry, and we will agree the arrangements with you before the day so everything runs smoothly.
Can you cater a fully vegan party?
Many of our dishes are vegan, and North Indian cooking has plenty of vegetable, lentil and chickpea dishes to build a menu from. Let us know your guests are vegan when you enquire and we will suggest suitable dishes for each course, confirming every one with you before the event.
Do you cater housewarmings and smaller get-togethers?
Catering is not only for big occasions. Shikha's business began with intimate gatherings as well as large parties, so a housewarming or a small family celebration is very welcome. Send us your plans through the form at /private-catering/#enquire and we will suggest a menu that suits the size and style of your gathering.
