Yes. One of Lettie's work collegues has bought the Cobbled Corner Cafe, at Chipping, in the Ribble Valley. She does outside catering and the food is excellent.
I had the pleasure to gatecrash a private party of Royal Blackburn Hospital's Delivery Suite a couple of weeks ago, purely in the capacity of culinary crash test dummy. I was suitably replete when I waddled out of the door, four hours later.

At work, we always use Gourmet Catering in Clayton .. 01254 875495 and never been disappointed yet.. however, 'ya ,makes yer choice as they say'

The buffet at the Sparks event (that you took pics for a few months ago, Kipax) was Yummies in Oswaldtwistle - they're always good value.

Gourmet catering are probably one of the best but they're also quite pricey - depends what your budget is.

then I would take your advice as users and contact them...

Sorry...funny ****** I know

For my husbands 50th in June we used Nutty Butty Shop, Union Road Osw. Can highly recommend them and the prices was very reasonable too. Buffet was good, food very fresh and plenty of variety. What i liked best was that they didn't set the buffet up before the party, they actually came a short time before it was served and set it up then. Sorry haven't got the shop number only the mobile no, which is: 07768760619

The Observatory in Blackburn (near Queens Park) did our wedding but I can't remember if it was any good. Some of the AccyWebber guests might remember. It was all a bit hectic to me with hilarious photography and a guest who didn't come due to balloon phobia.

I can vouch for the Nutty Butty Shop, in Ossy, as can Wingy and everyone on site who work at Emersons. We get our lunchtime butties from this establishment. Top banana!

Eileen Read at Rising Bridge she does a good buffet. She does ones for work sometimes and we had her back in jan.

Kipax - Stanleybabe's dad owns Prescotts Bakery in Ossy, I used them for my 18th and 21st. They are really good. I can PM you Kate's number, although I dont know the shops number.

Kisser · 25-11-2006, 17:31

Hmmmm for some reason no I cant PM you her number, I cant see the PM details for you. I can text it to Mrs Kipax if you like?
