Be Different Catering

Be Different Catering is a family run business, led by Joseph Fagan, who has worked in the food industry for his entire career.

Be Different Catering is based at Joe’s residence, where we have a modern industrial sized Kitchen. This Kitchen is capable of meeting the needs of any event - be it dining for 2 or up to 2000+.

Be Different Catering is built around the ethos that everything should be fresh, hand made made from scratch, and given a personal touch - old fashioned cooking at its finest.

We have been hosting weekly cooking shows that have accrued views numbering in the hundreds of thousands!

In 2020, Be Different Catering was also featured in Daily Record local news - check out the article, here:

Meet the Team

Be Different Catering at it’s core is a family run business, headed by Joe Fagan and supported by his wife, Maureen Fagan. Beyond this, Be Different Catering also has access to more comprehensive and extensive staffing as-and-when required and appropriate.

Joe Fagan

Joe started as a Butcher when he left school & continued to work as such till he was 22. Broadening his skillset, he moved on to later become the manager of a food factory. Still not satisfied, Joe looked to further his knowledge & explore his passions for cooking - acquiring his degree to become a Chef, Joe then founded Be Different Catering.

Joe is often accompanied in this endeavour by his wife Maureen, & son James.

Maureen Fagan

Maureen Fagan is Joe’s other half, right-hand woman, & steadfast supporter. Maureen & Joe will soon be celebrating their Ruby wedding anniversary.

We’ve heard on the grapevine that their catering is sorted.

    My colleague and I joined a cook school class one evening with two others and we had an exceptional experience. What I found most impressive is Joe’s uncanny ability to know exactly what kind of support and direction each individual in the group needed right from the outset. I was in safe hands!

    We cooked up a deliciously spicy chicken curry meal. Sorted.

    Will definitely be back to learn how to make tablet.
