Booked for Wedding

Wow, what a fantastic pair! Murilo has been totally epic through the whole thing, incredible communication. All of our guests were blown away by the quality of the food that was served, the horseradish burger went down particularly well. I had the barbecue burger and it was incredible, the fries were also out of this world. If you are looking for a great value for money fantastic quality food, book these guys. Thank you for making our wedding day the best day of our lives 🥰

Really happy with Christian and Mohammed. Great food, loved the kick in some of the dishes! On time, clean, tidy, accommodating, professional... absolutely spot on.

Booked for Corporate Function

There is only one word for Outdoor Food Company "AMAZING" the food was outstanding. Jason who runs Outdoor Food Company is the nicest guy, and will accommodate for every occasion. The set up they have, the produce they use is fantastic, my guests couldn't get enough of their perfectly cooked food. They were professional, clean and tidied all rubbish up at the end of the event. I can't recommend the Outdoor Food Company enough "AMAZING" Thank you!!

Booked for Birthday party

I was a little hesitant about using the service and also piggy piggy roast, because I’d never used either before. Gary and I spoke ahead of time and he managed the ever- increasing numbers (80 ultimately) and requests for 10 vegetarian dishes, with no problem. The team turned up on time, set up quickly and the food was a great hit! Would definitely use their services again. Thanks gents.

Booked for Corporate Function

Great flexible team , food was perfect and nobody wanted for anything on the day . We had 130 guests over an hour and a half and the service never faltered

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.
