office
Nothing brings a hardworking team together like tasty treats to share at lunchtime. We can deliver delicious food to your office, or provide a more fun, interactive experience by cooking on-site, a popular option with a lot of our clients.
“Becky and Katie always bring sunshine to the office. They cook up the most delicious food whenever they come and they leave our kitchen sparkling.”

Our aim is to prepare and cook delicious food for any event, in any location. We curate a menu with you, for you. We offer private chef services in the UK and worldwide.

our story
Katie & Becky founded The Local Squeeze in 2017. We are a plant based catering company. Becky was working for Oddbox and they were both volunteering for a charity called The Felix Project, which rescues surplus food and redistributes it to people in need. Through their experience with these groups, they saw firsthand the harsh reality of food poverty and food waste in London. They started their business juicing surplus fruit and vegetables. Soon after, they began a weekly cafe residency at The Platform, a community cafe based in South London offering healthy and affordable food, made with homegrown and surplus produce via Local Greens. Becky moved to Wales and works as the head chef at Wild Thing a plant-based ‘pay what you feel’ cafe and provides plant-based catering as Only Love Kitchen. .
“Wowcha! What is that raspberry jam on the oats? It is unreal, how do you find time to make all these little extras for the crew?”
Katie’s culinary story
Katie began her journey as a child, her grandmother teaching her all her tips and tricks. Raised partially in Andalusia, she also learned many traditional Andalusian recipes from her neighbour Rosaria. Upon arriving back in London she worked in restaurants finessing her style. Upgrading traditional dishes into a modern, vegan meal is her specialty and she makes a banging Sunday roast.
“You guys, thank you so much for the excellent food and for keeping everyone extremely well fed over the weekend. That mac and cheese was up there with the best mac and cheese I have ever tasted. Everyone was raving about the food.”
