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.
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.
