Booked for Birthday party

Without hesitation, one of the best buffets I have ever had. Amazing flavours, a real twist on the traditional finger buffet. Our guests LOVED the sausage rolls, in fact we had many compliments from guests over the quality of food. I cannot recommend highly enough. I look forward to using Simons Catering again in the future. I just need to find another resson to celebrate!

This was a top class service from beginning to end with a tracking service which allowed for exact time of delivery. Nicola was super to deal with and I’d highly recommend her business

The Afternoon tea was delicious 😊 it was just disappointing that it arrived late in the day when I had paid for it to be delivered in the morning.

Booked for Wedding

Sam catered our outdoor boho wedding and was absolutely amazing from start to finish. We had to rebook several times due to covid and change our numbers. He was super flexible and understanding. When it came to the food on the day it was absolutely incredible, every single guest complimented how delicious it was and I saw people go up for seconds, thirds and I think maybe one greedy fourths!! When there was food left over we got big takeaway trays to keep and kept eating it for the whole week after! I can’t recommend Sasquatch lodge enough!!!

Booked for Other Event

Marcello cooked our Christmas dinner for us at short notice so we could spend more time with our precious Mum. The food was amazing and Marcello is such a pleasure to have around. I would highly recommend Marcello and look forward to tasting his food and learning from him in the future. Thank you Marcello for helping to make our Christmas so special.

Booked for Celebration

Had a brilliant night with the band. In the run up to it they were very communicative and on the night talked people through the dances and when it moved to disco time the music selection was spot on

We delivered next level parties for exceptional companies

We also did more than 40,000 birthday parties. Probably, including your neighbour’s recent big bash.
