2023 – Local Catering Business Oh My Nosh Brings Delicious Food and Hospitality to Bedworth Community
Tucked away in the heart of Bedworth lies a hidden gem for fantastic food and hospitality – Oh My Nosh Catering. Established in 2015 and now being run solely by owner Sherrie Parsons since 2016, this family-owned business has become a staple in the community for any catering needs. With two local establishments serving food daily and a full-scale catering operation for events, Oh My Nosh brings delicious flavours and good old-fashioned service to Bedworth residents.
Getting Its Start as a Humble Potato Van
After a daring career change, Sherrie decided to take a chance in the food industry. Her business began operating a single potato van in Bedworth’s All Saints Square in 2015. Using fresh, high quality ingredients, the van quickly gained popularity among locals looking for a hearty lunch or snack on the go.
Within a few years, Sherrie had expanded the business by opening Oh My Nosh Cafe right in Bedworth Market. The addition of the cafe allowed for an expanded menu with cooked breakfasts, sandwiches, baked goods and more. Locals could now sit down and enjoy Sherrie’s cooking while getting to know the friendly staff.
Catering Services Tailored for Every Occasion
At the heart of Oh My Nosh are the catering services for special events and gatherings. Sherrie and her team handle all types of events including:

Recent Investment Fuels Expansion
In addition to meeting the growing demand for their catering services, Oh My Nosh Catering recently upgraded to a new van! You will definitely see the van in and around Bedworth, from the base at All Saints Square to events at The Miners Welfare Park.
This also presents an exciting opportunity for those planning weddings or any other special events. The van has been carefully customised and equipped to cater to a wide range of occasions, making it the perfect addition to any wedding celebration.
The catering van offers a versatile and convenient solution for couples looking to add a touch of culinary excellence to their special day. It has state-of-the-art facilities and follows food preparation and safety requirements. Whether it’s an intimate gathering or a grand affair, Oh My Nosh Catering’s van can be hired to cater weddings of any size.

Whether you’re envisioning a garden wedding or a rustic barn reception, Oh My Nosh Catering’s van can be there to create a memorable dining experience.
Evolving Into a Full-Service Catering Operation
The potato van and cafe formed a solid foundation, but Sherrie had even bigger plans – to bring her food directly to people’s events as a full-service caterer. She slowly grew the catering side of the business by providing food for nearby funerals, parties, weddings and special occasions.
As word spread of Sherrie’s affordable, tailored menus and dedicated service, the catering operation took off. Five years later, catering has now become the primary arm of Oh My Nosh. Sherrie and her team handle events both large and small, from intimately catered home gatherings to weddings of over 200 guests.
So what sets Oh My Nosh Catering apart? Sherrie explains, “We make an effort to really get to know our clients and what they envision for their special event. Then we craft a custom menu just for them and their guests. It’s always fresh food cooked from scratch, and we handle all the setup, service staff, and cleanup afterwards. We become an extension of their party.”
Focusing On Quality, Affordability and Service
Everything at Oh My Nosh – from the cafe food to event catering – revolves around three key principles: Quality, Affordability and Service. According to Sherrie:
“We believe that good food should be available to everyone in our community. That’s why we work hard to keep our prices low while still using fresh, high-quality ingredients. We want to make sure that everyone can enjoy our food without breaking the bank.”
Catering Packages for Any Occasion
From small gatherings to weddings for 200, Oh My Nosh offers packaged menus and catering services to suit any event. Guests can enjoy crowd-pleasing bites like sandwiches, crisps, sausage rolls, pork pies and pizza. Upgrade to the Silver or Gold packages for additional options like chicken goujons, samosas and sweet desserts.
For an additional charge, clients can add hot foods and entrees to complement their package. These range from curry, meatballs, fajitas and jacket potatoes to the local favourite – hot pork with stuffing. Everything is crafted using high quality ingredients sourced locally when possible.
Packages start at just £3.95 per person. However, most clients choose to customise their menus further based on their vision and budget. The Oh My Nosh team will work closely with each client to accommodate preferences and restrictions to delight all guests.
While the food delivers on taste and presentation, Sherrie insists the service is equally important:
“We treat every client like family. From the first consultation, to collaborating on a custom menu, to handling all the setup, service and cleanup… our clients shouldn’t have to worry about anything. We’ll make sure every detail is perfect so they can simply relax and have a great time with guests.”
Sherrie Parsons, owner
This personalised approach has earned rave reviews from the Bedworth community. Gareth Nash shared about his recent experience: “Oh My Nosh Catering provided a wonderful spread for my grandson’s birthday party. Such delicious food and plenty for all 60 guests. They really made the event hassle-free for us. I’d use them again in a heartbeat!”
8 Years of 5-Star Food Hygiene Ratings
While affordability and hospitality are hallmarks of Oh My Nosh, Sherrie never compromises on health and safety standards. She proudly boasts that both the cafe and catering operation have maintained 5-star food hygiene ratings from the Food Standards Agency for over 8 consecutive years.
Rigorous staff training along with diligent quality control and compliance procedures enable this exceptional track record. Customers can feel at ease knowing that Oh My Nosh takes every precaution in these areas.
