The 5 Best Birthday Caterers in Singapore for a Memorable Feast

  • Menu variety and customisation - We looked for diverse options, including local, international, and dietary-specific menus that can be tailored to the occasion’s theme or guest list.
  • Timely delivery and setup - Punctuality is crucial. A good caterer handles delivery, setup, and teardown smoothly so the client can focus on hosting.
  • Themed add-ons and services - We searched for caterers that offer live stations, themed decor, or entertainers to elevate the party beyond food. 
  • Portion size and quantity - A good caterer serves generous, well-estimated portions so you don’t run out of food, regardless of the number of guests.

I’ve planned more birthday parties than I can count, for kids, adults, and even a surprise one for my boss who hates surprises! If there’s one thing I learned from all that, it’s this: the food can make or break the vibe.

I’ve seen guests who remember the buffet more than the speeches, from ones who tried sambal stingray for the first time, to those who sank their teeth into unicorn cupcakes. Here are the best birthday caterers in Singapore I would RSVP for.

I find Amici’s menu impressively varied. At my most recent birthday celebration, my guests had everything from truffle mac and cheese to laksa shooters. The company also offers customisation for vegetarian and halal preferences without extra fuss.

Delivery was spot-on, arriving 15 minutes early with everything neatly packed and still warm. No chasing around happened because the setup was both quick and tidy.

I appreciated the little extras; Amici offered thematic setups and even helped source a gelato cart for my party! I also like how the staff stayed just long enough to ensure that everything looked and flowed right.

My guests kept asking me where the food was from, which says a lot. I suppose the consistently high scores Amici gets across platforms mirror the quality I experienced.

The downside? Expect premium pricing (Abundance Buffet is S$38/pax, minimum of 30 pax), especially with add-ons. You’ll also go through lots of email coordination because there’s no instant booking option, which might not sit well with last-minute planners.

Pros

  • Extensive menu variety
  • Timely service
  • Customisable add-ons

Cons

  • No instant online booking
  • Premium pricing

    The setup was impressively fast and efficient

    Absolutely my favourite caterer! The food was delicious, beautifully presented, and got rave reviews from everyone. Jim, Sombir and their team were professional, friendly, and made everything run smoothly. The setup was impressively fast and efficient. Always a pleasure working with them — highly recommended!

    The dried laksa was awesome, completely finished!

    Jason was early to set up the buffet. Despite some hiccups with the booking, which led to the late opening of the clubhouse, he was patient and helped to plan where to place the buffet line. Dried laksa was awesome, completely finished. First to go was the Yuzu drink, which everyone loves. Would try out your live station next time.

    Chilli Manis nailed the Peranakan vibe, from the ayam buah keluak (chicken in tamarind gravy) to the kueh salat (glutinous rice dessert). The menu felt like a heritage feast during my bestie’s birthday celebration.

    The caterer covers both traditional and modern bites, along with vegetarian and halal offerings. We like that the crew set everything up without needing reminders and that the food was packed well.

    The crew also helped with the Nyonya-themed layout, complete with printed menus and floral batik touches! It added just the right flair without being over-the-top.

    With solid online reviews and word-of-mouth recommendations, my best friend knew she was in good hands with Chilli Manis. Until today, we can’t stop raving about the otah and sambal prawns we had on her birthday.

    The downside is that most of its themes lean on the traditional, so custom non-Peranakan styles might be limited.

    Pros

    • Authentic Peranakan flavours
    • Strong menu variety
    • Creative thematic touches

    Cons

    • Niche presentation style
    • Not suited for smaller events (30 pax minimum)

      Buffet set-up is fast, and presentation is nice 

      Chilli Manis is one of my frequent vendors for my corporate events. I am happy with their service. Buffet set-up is fast, and presentation is nice too. Food selection is wider and, most importantly, tasty. Thank you to Joshua and Charlotte whom I liaise for my events.

      Kept us informed and updated on the delivery timing and all

      Thank you very much for your company’s service. We are very pleased with how professional your company is when it comes to taking our order, keeping your customer informed and updated of the delivery timing and all. Your seat up team was also very professional and prompt. Your company’s food is also tasty and good value for money. We are glad to have chosen your catering service. Thank you, Chilli Manis, for the great service experience. Thank you, Kate Leu, for your assistance in the administrative process that made the catering smooth.

      Orange Clove’s menu is one of the most extensive that my family’s seen. It’s got local delights, Western favourites, and even Thai and Japanese options in one spread! 

      My mom loved that the staff handled dietary restrictions like a pro, since her birthday feast had senior guests with strict halal, vegetarian, and other special food needs that required clear labelling.

      This catering company offers full thematic setups, including custom backdrops and table styling. My mom got her tropical-themed dream birthday celebration without lifting a finger.

      As a bonus, there were live stations like teppanyaki and satay that kept guests full and delighted! Everyone left the party impressed (and burping), including my pickiest auntie.

      Do note that packages are pricier (up to S$43/pax), especially with added decor and live stations. Also, some premium setups require early booking to secure availability.

      Pros

      • Extensive menu variety
      • Polished setup
      • Professional themed packages 

      Cons

      • Premium pricing on top-tier buffet sets 
      • Three-day lead time required

        All my family members enjoyed the food so much

        My first time ordering Mini Asia buffet set B (25 persons) for my house warning. Surprisingly, the food was delicious, especially the curry chicken. All my family members enjoyed the food so much. Special thanks to Sharon Lem for her quick response to my order through emails and last-minute changes to my order. The delivery was on time, too.

        Food was superb!

        Food was superb! Perhaps a bit more dishes but less rice would be good, to prevent wastage. Everything finished, but there was still a lot of rice left over. Delivery personnel Sunil and Chan were friendly and polite, and worked very quickly and neatly.

        From bento boxes to full buffet spreads, Four Seasons Catering never fails to impress my work colleagues whenever I book the company for events. Our favourite is the Asian Delights package because we can’t get enough of its curry chicken and eclairs.

        The food always arrives on the dot, with all the warmers and trays clean and ready to go. Surprisingly, there’s also a kids’ bento option aside from halal-certified menus, which makes things easier for mixed dietary needs.

        I didn’t expect themed add-ons from Four Seasons, though we (especially the decorating team) all appreciated that the staff helped dress the buffet line to match our pastel balloon setup.

        Reviews consistently mention good service, and we saw that first-hand with courteous staff and smooth coordination from booking to teardown. Everyone ate well, and I didn’t have to micro-manage a thing.

        The downside is that the setup is pretty basic unless you request enhancements. Also, the mini-buffet packages have a fixed menu with limited flexibility for substitutions.

        Pros

        • Affordable buffets
        • Reliable delivery and setup
        • Generous portions

        Cons

        • Surcharge structure can inflate costs
        • Fixed menus with limited substitutions

          I chose Four Seasons because their food looked appetising 

          Adel assisted with my order, ensuring it arrived on time. Food was delicious, and we wiped out. I chose Four Seasons because their food looked appetising from their photos, and was very presentable, which did not disappoint me on the actual day. Very pleased with this order and will definitely order from them again for other events/celebrations.

          The service from start to finish was excellent 

          Highly recommend caterers! Last weekend, our family and another family shared a combined reception for our children. There was good feedback from our guests about the F&B. I especially enjoyed the fish and chicken dishes. Importantly, the service from start to finish was excellent as well, especially with Mr Rudi, with whom we have worked since 2019 for our wedding day back then. Thank you, Four Seasons Catering!

          How’s Catering delivered a birthday spread for my dad that felt both premium and practical (just like he is). He chose the self-heating mini-buffet, so the food stayed warm throughout without any extra setup.

          The menu had a good mix, too. His guests loved the laksa, braised chicken, and kueh. There are also halal-certified options with everything clearly labelled and ready to serve.

          Even though it was a mini-buffet, the company added thoughtful touches like coordinated tableware and printed labels. It looked styled without needing a professional decorator.

          Its reviews weren’t kidding; delivery was on time, the portions were generous, and the service was smooth from start to finish. Everyone kept pestering my dad about the catering company’s contact info.

          The pricing is on the higher side for mini-buffets, though (from S$238 for 10 pax). Also, set menus can’t be customised unless you upgrade to a larger package.

          Pros

          • Innovative self-heating mini-buffet
          • Versatile menu
          • Simple but stylish setup

          Cons

          • Premium pricing for mini-buffets
          • Limited customisation for fixed packages

            Customer reviews

            The portions were a lot, and the food all tasted good

            I ordered a Premium International Buffet for my son’s birthday. The portions were a lot, and the food all tasted good. It’s very savoury, especially the laksa. All my visitors like it. The potato gratin, shepherd’s pie and fried rice are also the best. It’s worth the price. The set-up was good. We’ll recommend to others or we will order again for the next occasion.

            The food has been awesome every single time

            We’ve used How’s Catering three times, and the food has been awesome every single time. Today’s set-up crew was extremely pleasant, had a great attitude, and did their work to the utmost perfection. Always appreciate their service and quality of How’s.
