We recently had the pleasure of welcoming Kevin and his incredible team to Coppermaker Square, where they hosted an immersive event for our residents-and what an amazing experience it was! From start to finish, the event was engaging, thrilling, and expertly executed, leaving everyone talking about it long after it ended. Kevin fully embodied the role of Claudia, complete with the iconic black wig, and his commitment to the character was nothing short of brilliant. He kept the energy high, the suspense building, and the gameplay running seamlessly. His charisma, humour, and ability to create an authentic atmosphere made the experience truly next level. The structure of the event was spot on-challenging, fun, and incredibly well thought out. Residents were completely absorbed in the strategy, deception, and teamwork involved, and the game unfolded with plenty of unexpected twists and dramatic reveals that kept everyone on their toes. To top it all off, the team even brought in a professional bartender to craft delicious cocktails throughout the night, adding an extra special touch to the experience. The attention to detail-from the seamless facilitation of the game to the hospitality and atmosphere-showed just how much effort went into making the evening memorable for all who attended. The feedback from our residents has been fantastic, with many saying it was one of the most exciting and enjoyable events we've ever had at Coppermaker Square. It was clear that Kevin and his team put in so much effort to create a truly immersive, high-quality experience, and it certainly paid off! If you’re looking for a unique, interactive, and brilliantly executed event, I highly recommend Kevin and his team. Their professionalism, creativity, and ability to engage an audience is unmatched. We would absolutely love to have them back for another event in the future! ⭐ Five stars all the way! ⭐
Having Jamie with us has made the party a real success. Jamie was professional and friendly. The cocktails were excellent! We will all remember this amazing evening forever. Thank you HOMETAINMENT !
Amazing Poker Night!
Mimi was such a pleasure to have with us on holiday in France. She had an almost impossible task to cater for thirty-two very demanding people throughout the course of a week. Not only is she an immense amount fun to be around, but she produced some of the most delicious food I have ever tasted. She designed, planned and executed an amazing menu which everyone loved. I could not recommend her more!

Had a wonderful session with Ekta, very calming and friendly atmosphere and the process I very much enjoyed, which helped me to relax, and taught me how observe my mind. The final completed Mandala is beautiful and I find it will hold meaning on this current period in my life - love the class and highly recommend!
Dominique and team curated a sensational event, ensuring every detail was fine tuned, service was impeccable. Guests had only positive feedback on the oysters, caviar and service. The team were very warm and attentive. Could not recommend enough and thank you!
Our bartender, Mattia, was truly outstanding! We had to make a last-minute booking just four hours before our company event due to a change in plans. The support team at HOMETAINMENT, along with Mattia, displayed exceptional speed and professionalism in accommodating our request. Mattia quickly took charge of our bar, offering fantastic cocktail suggestions that perfectly complemented the party's atmosphere. His mixing skills were precise and impeccable, and he even extended his service for an additional 30 minutes to ensure our evening continued smoothly. We extend our heartfelt thanks to Mattia for his contributions. This marked our second successful OFFICETAINMENT event, and it was made memorable by his exceptional service.
We were very fortunate to have Mimi cater our wedding. From the get-go Mimi was super engaged, flexible and approachable. When it came to the actual weekend Mimi was a force of good-natured efficiency. She kept us aware of any issues that need our input but without adding to the inevitable last-minute wedding stress. She was even up at 4 AM checking on the slow cooking lamb! On the day it was all better than we could have hoped for. Everything was utterly delicious, but also and importantly for us not the standard wedding fare (apart from honey mustard sausages obvs). The Asian pork belly was a particular favourite canape of mine as was the tuna tartare. The lamb for the main was honestly the best I have had, and I know several typically non lamb-eating friends had to do some soul searching afterwards. I would recommend Mimi to anyone for whom food is a priority. She provides something a bit different (and in my experience better) that most catering companies, helping to create an atmosphere that will feel uniquely yours
