ABOUT US
How it All Started
HappyPlates was born out of a simple idea: food should not just fill plates, it should create lasting experiences. What began as a small team of passionate food enthusiasts in Bangalore has quickly grown into a trusted partner for companies, events, and celebrations.
From our earliest days, we focused on three non-negotiables — uncompromising quality, personalized service, and innovation in every menu we craft. Guided by these principles, HappyPlates set out to reimagine catering as more than a transactional service, but as a journey that blends flavors, presentation, and hospitality into one seamless experience.
Today, while our scale has grown, our founding spirit remains unchanged: to delight every guest we serve and to continuously raise the bar for catering standards in India.
