The Kitchen at Primrose Hill Farm

Contemporary Event Catering Crafted with Seasonal Produce and Global Influence

The Kitchen celebrates seasonal British ingredients through contemporary, considered event catering. From our Cotswold setting at Primrose Hill Farm, we design and create distinctive menus that balance technical precision with exceptional flavour and genuine warmth.

Our culinary approach marries local in-season produce with Mediterranean influences and subtle Asian accents. This refined yet approachable style elevates celebrations of all kinds—from elegant weddings to sophisticated corporate gatherings and memorable private dining events.

Set within Primrose Hill Farm’s modern barn architecture and surrounded by rolling Cotswold countryside, our food finds its perfect context. Here, dining becomes more than just eating—it’s an experience that complements your occasion while creating moments of discovery and delight along the way.

Weddings

Modern Wedding Dining

At The Kitchen, we approach your wedding menu with imagination and care, creating dining experiences worthy of your celebration.

Working closely with each couple, we craft bespoke menus that reflect who you are and enhance your day’s natural flow. Choose from elegant plated courses that showcase refined culinary techniques, abundant sharing bowls and boards that get conversation flowing, or interactive food stations that create movement and discovery throughout your wedding day.

Our tasting experience allows for genuine collaboration, ensuring every element feels just right. From those first champagne reception canapés through to evening food that keeps the dance floor energised, each offering is thoughtfully conceived and beautifully executed.

Locally sourced, seasonally inspired, and served with genuine care—wedding dining that your guests will remember for all the right reasons.

Corporate Events

Corporate Events with Purpose

Bringing culinary excellence to corporate gatherings, we will work with you to elevate your next business event beyond the ordinary.

Within Primrose Hill Farm’s contemporary event spaces, we create menus that strike the perfect balance—refined enough to impress discerning clients yet approachable enough to encourage proper conversation and appreciative noises, with each dish reflecting our commitment to outstanding ingredients and considered presentation.

From focused working sessions to black-tie evening receptions, our approach combines creativity with professionalism. We know that well-designed, well-crafted food has a remarkable ability to transform business gatherings from functional to truly memorable—something we keep in mind with every corporate menu we create.

The food was absolutely delicious, and everything was perfection…

 We couldn’t have dreamed of a more amazing wedding day. The team can’t do enough for you. The attention to detail is like no other; the day ran so smoothly, and we couldn’t fault a thing. I could go on and on about how perfect Primrose is, but we would be here forever. Primrose will always have a special place in our hearts.

Seasonal platters encourage shared exploration, beautifully composed courses add moments of elegance, and interactive elements keep the experience lively and fun.

Paired with the Farm Bar’s carefully chosen drinks and framed by the contemporary barn backdrop, private celebrations find their perfect setting—one that balances countryside charm with modern sophistication.

Pop Up Events

Seasonal Dining Gatherings

Throughout the year, we open the doors for unique dining events that showcase our culinary approach in a more intimate setting. These gatherings celebrate what’s exceptional right now—seasonal ingredients, current techniques, and the pleasure of a shared dining table.

Summer evenings might feature abundant produce-forward menus in the light-filled barns, while autumn and winter gatherings offer decadent dishes enjoyed in softer, ambient lighting. What remains constant, however, is our commitment to quality and conviviality. This means limited seating, communal tables, and relaxed yet attentive service create a dining experience that feels special without being stuffy. Perfect for date nights, catching up with friends, or simply treating yourself to something a little different.

Our calendar changes with the seasons—go ahead and join our mailing list for first access to these consistently popular events.

We felt like our wedding was the only and most important event in their calendar; no ask or question was too much…

Primrose Hill Farm was the most glorious venue for our wedding. Words will never be enough to convey how fantastic the staff are equally at front of house, admin and management, and also the incredible partnership with the Kitchen at Primrose, whose food continues to blow us away. Every one of our guests was looked after to the highest standard, so much so that a family member has just booked her wedding to take place there too.

Our Team

Culinary Excellence, Genuine Hospitality

Anthony and Jo Robinson lead The Kitchen team, a team that brings together professional excellence and the warmest of hospitality. We approach each event with attention to what’s on the plate and the atmosphere around the table – both of which are equally important to us all. 

In the kitchen, our chefs work with seasonal ingredients to create dishes that simply make people happy, through flavour, texture, and clever composition. On the floor, our service team finds that perfect balance, anticipating needs while ensuring everyone feels comfortable rather than closely monitored.

However, what makes The Kitchen so special is our commitment to creating memorable dining experiences through both skill and genuine care, transforming even the most meticulously conceived menu into something that feels both exclusive and somehow down-to-earth, exactly at the same time.

We’ll forever be thankful to the whole Primrose team…

From meeting us with smiling faces at 8am, you made the day so stress-free and joyful. It honestly would not have been the same without your kindness and preparation. So many of our guests said it was the most gorgeous venue they had been to and could not get over how delicious the food was.  All of those with dietary requirements felt seen and were so appreciative.
