The Team Behind Scotland’s Favourite Private Catering
At The Lunchbox Boys, we believe that food should do more than fill a plate. It should set the tone, spark conversation, and leave your guests smiling from ear to ear.
Whether it’s a castle wedding, a big boardroom do, or a cosy gathering with your nearest and dearest, we’re here to provide exceptional catering and service.
We’ve been lucky enough to cater some of Scotland’s most incredible events over the years, and we’ve learned one thing: no two days (or menus) should ever be the same.
We build every enquiry from the ground up, crafted around your vibe, your people, and your story.
Meet the Team Behind the Magic
We’re Sam and Dougal - good mates and proud Cairngorms locals.
What started as a few healthy lunch deliveries quickly grew into something bigger (and tastier), earning us a nod at the Highlands & Islands Food and Drink Awards and sparking the idea for The Lunchbox Boys.
We’ve built a brilliant team of 70 around us, bringing decades of experience in private and event catering to the table. With backgrounds in fine dining, large-scale events, and private cheffing, we’re united by a shared passion for exceptional food and standout service.
From intimate dinners to multi-course wedding feasts, we thrive on delivering fresh, creative, locally inspired food — always with quality, care, and a smile.
Our Philosophy - What Matters to Us
Local, Seasonal, Always Delicious
Scotland’s got one of the best natural larders in the world, and we’re proud to show it off on every dish.
Our chefs work closely with local farmers, fishermen, and producers, ensuring that every plate reflects:
