Mark Garvey11 Aug 2025

Booked for Corporate Function

I couldnt recommend Anees and his team enough. We hired them to feed our 45 person work summer party and the service was fantastic and the food even better. All of my staff have been talking about how delicious the food was (and a number of them took extra home for dinner!) Anees was available via email to answer any questions that I had and handled some complex dietry requirements with ease. All in all - a brilliant supplier who I am happy to recommend.
