About commonplaces

Passionate about creating exceptional culinary experiences that bring people together

Our Story

Founded in the vibrant city of Almere, commonplaces began with a simple belief: that exceptional food has the power to transform any gathering into a memorable experience. What started as a passion for culinary excellence has grown into a trusted catering service that serves clients throughout the Netherlands.

Our journey began when our founder recognised the need for truly personalised catering services that go beyond just providing food. We wanted to create experiences that reflect the unique character of each event and the people who attend them.

Today, commonplaces stands as a testament to the power of combining culinary artistry with genuine care for our clients. Every event we cater is an opportunity to create something special, something that brings people together around the shared joy of exceptional food.
