Feast

If you didn’t know already, we’re real foodies here at Upton Barn.

We hugely appreciate the role that food plays in your wedding day and count ourselves as very lucky to work with two gastronomically enticing caterers!
Fig & Smoke and Milkshed are both renowned for their ridiculously delicious grub and quite frankly, incredible service! 

Milkshed 

Rooted in family values and refined through many years’ experience, Milkshed treats every wedding or event as if it were their own. They love getting to know their clients and they are equally happy cooking from their wide range of sample menus, or discussing a more bespoke menu personalised to you. 

From beautifully plated meals and delicious canapes to generous sharing platters, and wood-fired pizzas and feasts designed to fuel your dancefloor, every menu is thoughtfully put together and crafted with seasonal ingredients, creative flair and attention to every small detail.

Fig & Smoke 

A family-run business nestled in the heart of Dartmoor, creating unforgettable menus and delivering seamless service for your special day.

With dedicated events managers and a talented team of chefs, designing the perfect menu is simple and stress-free. Clients are guided every step of the way — whether they’re dreaming of the finesse of a fully plated affair, the relaxed atmosphere of a sharing-style feast, or a thoughtful blend of both.

Menus are inspired by the seasons and shaped by the surrounding landscape. Working closely with trusted local suppliers, Fig & Smoke sources the finest quality produce available, because exceptional food always begins with exceptional ingredients.

Their cooking balances modern creativity with a deep respect for traditional flavours, resulting in dishes that feel both innovative and familiar. A passion for local, sustainable ingredients underpins every menu and complements their commitment to outstanding service.

It’s about more than serving food — it’s about creating a day you and your guests will remember forever.

“Our son was married here on Friday 25th June. The place, both inside & the gardens are just incredible! So well kept, clean & tidy. The most perfect setting for a romantic wedding. The staff were also just amazing. They were there for what ever we asked – they were kind & helpful & just so lovely.  The food served was the most delicious duck I have ever eaten – it could have been served in a top class restaurant, not a meal for over 50 people.  I cannot thank the hosts & staff enough for everything they did for us. I am sure they have hosted lots of weddings, but they truly made us feel like it was an extra special occasion, which they were enjoying as much as we were! The most perfect day ever!  I cannot recommend this venue enough!”
