Who we work with across the borough
Jaflong has been catering school events, fundraisers and community celebrations in Surbiton, Kingston and Richmond since 2008. School catering has its own rules — fixed budgets, allergen paperwork, numbers that move in the final week and a hall that has to be cleared by a certain hour. We plan for all of it.
Secondary schools
Multi-year catering relationship with Hollyfield School in Surbiton — awards evenings, staff events and fundraisers.
PTAs & parent groups
Summer and Christmas fairs across Surbiton, Kingston, Richmond and Teddington, priced per head so committees can budget upfront.
Community festivals
Regular stallholder and caterer at Hollyfest and Ham Fair, plus borough events in and around Richmond Park.
Clubs & youth organisations
Sports clubs, scouts, guides and youth groups — flexible minimums for smaller gatherings.
Planning a multi-school event or a borough-wide fair? We're happy to provide references from schools and community organisers we already cater for.
Short-notice cover
Been let down by another caterer?
It happens more often than schools expect — a supplier cancels the week of the fair, or numbers double and the original quote no longer works. We keep capacity for short-notice school bookings and can usually confirm the same day.

Budget-friendly pricing for schools
Our Bronze package suits tight school budgets while still delivering food people talk about. Silver adds presentation and serving staff for awards evenings and parent-facing events. All prices are per head, quoted in writing, with no hidden service charges.

We cater schools and community organisations throughout Surbiton, Kingston, Richmond, Teddington, Twickenham and Hampton. Delivery is free within 10 miles of our Richmond kitchen; 10–20 miles carries a small delivery fee quoted upfront.
