Booked for Other Event

This is the second time we have used this caterer and the second time we've had a really stress free and high quality output from them. There was extra admin required to gain access to our site and all communication between myself and the caterer was quick, clear and concise which made this an easy process. The food itself has been a hit in both the quality, variation and speed of production. I will be using these again when required. Also to the staff Sebastijan and Rachel, thankyou for both being so polite and helpful. I hope you also had a pleasurable experience at our event.

Booked for Wedding

Lucas provided a buffet style for our wedding reception, he answered all my questions from the beginning and was flexible and understanding when I told him what we needed. Everyone at the wedding was well fed and the food was amazing. If any other events come up I’ll definitely re-book.

Booked for Corporate Function

The person who set up the stand and served the hot dogs was great and the food went down really well. There was a bit of a delay in getting to the venue that wasn't communicated but they still were able to start on time. All in all, it was a great event.

Booked for Corporate Function

We had a corporate event and the ice cream was absolutely delicious. We got fantastic feedback from the staff and some of them went for seconds. The flavors we had was: Salted Caramel, Choc vanilla, Strawberry cheese cake and Elder flower sorbet. Don't hesitate to book, you will not be disappointed.
