Dinner parties

A dinner party in your own home - as an alternative to going out to a restaurant - is a very special way of celebrating an anniversary, birthday, or other memorable occasion.

Hyndberry offers a bespoke dinner (or lunch) party for groups of six or more.  We can provide everything you need - from dressing the dining room to serving a fabulous dinner made from our finest Scottish seasonal produce. On the day, you have nothing to worry about, you can relax and enjoy being the host without any of the work or stress. 

There is usually a consultation beforehand to plan the event and agree all the details. Dinner parties are available throughout the Borders, Edinburgh and the Lothians.

As a bespoke service, prices depend on the menu, location, number of guests, style of service, and start at around £40.00 per person. We sell Gift Vouchers for dinner parties.

If you'd like to discuss your plans and reserve a date, please contact Hyndberry through the Contact page.
