The Culinary Journey Begins with Tempting Canapés 

At Haar Events, they believe in setting the stage for a memorable dining experience right from the start. As your guests arrive, they will be welcomed with a tantalising array of canapés, expertly crafted in five distinct styles. These bite-sized delights are not only a feast for the taste buds but also the perfect conversation starter, allowing your guests to mingle effortlessly while sipping on handcrafted cocktails made with artisan spirits.

A Three-Course Seated Extravaganza

The pièce de résistance of any event is undoubtedly the main meal, and at Haar Events, they take it to the next level. The three-course seated meal is a culinary journey like no other. Each course offers a delightful choice between two carefully curated options, ensuring that every guest can tailor their dining experience to their personal preferences.

Exceptional Ingredients for Unforgettable Flavours

What truly sets Haar Events apart is the quality of the ingredients. Chef Dean Banks is known for his unwavering commitment to sourcing the finest local and sustainable produce to create his menus. Among his signature dishes is the iconic St Andrews Bay lobster, a star of the show. Each dish is a masterpiece, harmoniously blending flavours from across Europe and Asia to create a symphony of taste that is truly unforgettable.

Beyond Formal Dining 

For those seeking a more casual affair, Haar Events offers a selection of upscale bar food options. Think loaded fries and Waagyu Burgers that add a touch of gourmet flair to late-night revelry. Whether you're planning an intimate gathering or a grand celebration, our team can host your event at either Dean's Haar in St Andrews or the Pompadour in Edinburgh, both of which exude an air of sophistication and elegance.

Personalise Your Indulgence

At Haar Events, they understand the value of personalisation. Guests can take their dining experience up a notch by supplementing their meals with premium ingredients such as fresh truffles or Exmoor caviar.

To complement the exquisite cuisine, Haar Events offers a full bar service that is nothing short of extraordinary. In addition to our carefully curated wine pairings, guests can indulge in craft cocktails or savour spirits at our very own mobile gin bar.
