Charlie Wilberforce 26 May 2025

Booked for Birthday party

Easy to book, great choice of food and just the right amounts. Top quality and throughly enjoyable. Genuinely impressed and very appreciative of the service. Can't fault Muriel and her Team. Thank you. Highly recommended.

David Cox15 Jul 2024

Booked for Birthday party

Rupert was amazing throughout, and the comms were prompt and clear. Most importantly the food was great, and there was plenty of it, so nothing but praise for Rupert and his team. My only constructive comment would be that despite explaining to his service team several times the different foods suitable for allergies, vegans etc..., the team forgot what they were, so it may be worth having a 'cheat sheet' ready for the servers, so they can be certain what everything is. However, this is a very minor observation, as on the whole I think Gibbons catering offered a fabulous spread at a very competitive price, and I will definitely be using them again in future, and would not hesitate to recommend them to others.

Booked for Anniversary

Veronika supplied us with a delicious and excellent quality buffet for our anniversary party. We had some dietary needs but Veronika was more than happy to accommodate these for us. The amount of food provided was more than enough - we were extremely well fed! Highly recommended and would definitely book again. Thanks Veronika!
