Catering Barcelona
Catering in Barcelona for weddings, corporate events and private dinners
Planning a corporate event, a wedding, a private party or a special gathering in Barcelona? We write the menu around your event and cook it with the best produce the city’s markets have to offer. Every menu starts from a blank page: your date, your guests, your venue.
Why choose The Zest in Barcelona
We shop at Barcelona’s markets and work with local suppliers for fresh, seasonal and, where possible, organic produce. Then we cook it our way: Mediterranean at heart, with Japanese, Mexican and French accents.
A seaside wedding in the Maresme, a company dinner in Eixample, a rooftop reception in the Gothic Quarter, a picnic in Montjuïc — we tailor the menu to the style, the theme and the dietary needs of your guests.
Corporate and business catering
Offsites, congress side events, client dinners, team lunches and Christmas parties. Barcelona’s congress calendar and year-end season book up early, so the sooner we have your date, the more options we can offer.
Reliable timings, discreet service and invoicing you can pass straight to finance. Browse our sample menus, see our catering prices, or read what corporate catering costs in Barcelona.
Weddings and private celebrations
Wedding receptions, engagement parties, birthdays and baby showers. Seated dinners, canapé receptions or relaxed buffets.
Most couples get in touch 6 to 12 months before the day. If your date is closer, ask anyway. Read what wedding catering costs in Barcelona.
Private chef and picnics
A chef in your kitchen or villa, or a picnic basket for the beach or park. Vegan, vegetarian and gluten-free options throughout.

Frequently asked questions
How far ahead should we book?
For weddings, 6 to 12 months. For corporate events, give us as much notice as you can, especially for congress weeks and December. Short notice? Ask. We’ll tell you honestly whether we can do it well.
How is the price worked out?
Every quote is built from three things: the menu, the service format and the venue. See how our pricing works, or send us your details for a quote.
Can you cater for allergies and dietary requirements?
Vegan, vegetarian and gluten-free options run through all our menus. For allergies, tell us when you enquire and our kitchen will confirm what we can safely offer for your event.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Date, venue or address, guest count, occasion, service format, any dietary needs and a rough budget. Half of that is enough to start.
