Argyll chefs table Full Description

Argyll Chef's Table brings restaurant-quality food to weddings across Argyll and the islands. Our head chef has 23 years' experience in kitchens all over the UK, up to the high end, and moved to Argyll for its scenery, its land and some of the finest produce and seafood in the country. Everything we cook is built around that larder and the people who produce it.


EMBER – live-fire wedding feasts

EMBER is our live-fire and smoker experience, cooked outdoors over flame and smoke and brought to the table family-style on long sharing boards. It's generous, relaxed and sociable: guests pass platters, talk and feast together. EMBER is available for weddings of 12 guests or more and works beautifully for larger celebrations, from marquees and barns to castles and beaches.


Seasonal private dining

For more intimate weddings, our Seasonal menu follows the Scottish year: spring, summer, autumn and winter. Expect local seafood, game, beef, cheese and garden produce, cooked with care and served as a refined multi-course dinner.


Canapés

A selection of canapés for your drinks reception, made with the same local produce and attention to detail.


Drinks

We can supply a curated wine selection to go with your menu.


The team on the day

Our team looks after you from the first course to the last, hosting and serving so you and your guests can relax and enjoy the day. For larger weddings we bring in extra local staff from your venue's area.


Where we work

We travel throughout Argyll and the islands, to private homes, estates, venues and remote locations. If you can get there, we'll cook there.


Menus shaped around you

Every wedding is different. Tell us about your day, your venue and the kind of food you love, and we'll put together a menu that suits you.

FAQs
Find out a bit more from our FAQs

How far do you travel?

We cater weddings throughout Argyll/Highlands/stirling and the islands, from Kintyre to Mull, Iona and beyond. Private homes, estates, castles, barns and beaches are all welcome. A travel charge applies, and for more remote venues an overnight stay nearby keeps it down.


What style of food do you offer?

Two main options. For intimate weddings, our Seasonal menu is a refined multi-course dinner that follows the Scottish year. For 12 guests or more, EMBER is our live-fire and smoker experience, served family-style on sharing platters. We also offer canapés for the drinks reception.


Can you cater for larger weddings?

Yes. For bigger celebrations, dinner is served family-style on our EMBER Table, with sharing platters for each table. It's generous, sociable and keeps the evening flowing. We bring in extra local staff from your venue's area to look after your guests.


Do you provide drinks?

We offer a curated wine list chosen to suit our menus, plus bottled cocktails and a selection of Scottish single malts by the dram. Glassware isn't included, so check with your venue or a hire company.
