Our Story

At the heart of Chavi Events is our café, where we focus on fresh, approachable food made well and served with care. Alongside this, we offer reliable office and event catering, providing breakfast boxes, lunch boxes and shared platters designed to make feeding teams simple, stress-free and enjoyable.

Behind the scenes, Chavi Events is built on decades of experience across the hospitality industry. Our background includes owning and operating venues, developing menus, training staff, and working with cafés, restaurants, clubs and pubs to improve both food offerings and day-to-day operations. This depth of experience shapes everything we do — from the way we prepare our food to how we structure our catering menus and service.

For businesses looking to go further, Chavi Events also offers hospitality consulting, supporting venues with menu development, kitchen workflows and staff training. Our approach is practical and collaborative, focused on enhancing what already works without disrupting a business’s unique identity.

Whether you’re visiting our café, ordering catering for your team, or seeking expert guidance for your venue, Chavi Events is about good food, thoughtful service and solutions that work in the real world.

Proudly based in Mortdale, we’re passionate about supporting local businesses, teams and communities through food and hospitality done well.

Chavi Events brings together a passion for food, a welcoming café experience, and professional catering — all backed by over 25 years of hands-on hospitality expertise.
