Dining at Art Deco HouseUK

Fine Dining at The Art Deco HouseUK

Instead of going to the restaurant, why not have the restaurant come to you, with one of the Isle of Wight’s top chefs personally attending The Art Deco HouseUK to cook locally sourced ingredients and served by one of their team.

Our Chef team have worked at some of the best restaurants the island has to offer.

The impeccable style and ability to bring together plates of harmonious, charismatic and satisfying cuisine, makes fine dining at Marine Villa a dining experience that you will never forget. 

The menu will be decided after discussing directly with the chef what sort of dinner your prefer, and of course he can cater for specific dietary requirements.

Obviously having the chef and the serving staff dedicated to your own group is not necessarily a cheap option, so budget for around £70 a head when considering this, but then again, this is not just dining out, this is dining in with serious style, for a night you will always remember and so will all your guests! Why not make it a Black Tie Dinner, or a Gatsby evening with Glen Miller playing throughout the house, and add some magnums of champagne and wine too?

(please note, unfortunately we have encountered some external caterers on the Isle of Wight who are not properly insured to work for guests at premises other than their own, or provide services beyond take-away. We reserve the right to decline their entering our business premises and you would remain totally liable for any damage or losses caused by using them)

We prefer to always use local suppliers that we have evaluated and checked they offer a good service and are not only good value, but are also properly insured to work at our property and have Third Party Liability Insurance. We want to do our best to try to help you have the best day possible.

We do have a policy of using suppliers and contractors located on the Isle of Wight. If you do have preferred suppliers who are not on our list, please let us know, we do not mind, as long as we know in advance and they comply with our safety and insurance pre-requisites. We would need to have their contact details in advance. (several outside caterers in the past have unfortunately taken away more equipment than they came with, so we have to be careful)

If you do use a caterer that we have not reviewed and accepted, you personally remain liable for any risks, damage and losses to you, your guests or to The Art Deco HouseUK and it’s contractors.
