Thanks so much for doing the pizzas at our wedding! Organising the event couldn't have been easier. Everything was taken care of, communication before the event was amazing and the pizzas on the day were fantastic! Thanks again.

Booked for Celebration

Andrea came alone to cater for our 50 guests at our relaxed day after the wedding party. He just kept the pizzas coming and all our guests loved them. Sadly, he didn't have the wood fired oven as it was not working, but the alternative ovens that were used didn't detract from the fantastic pizzas that he produced. Full of flavour and light as a feather bases, the vegetarians and gluten intolerant guests were thrilled with their alternative bases and toppings.

Booked for Birthday party

Googled a private chef due to recommendations being extortionately priced. We went to the south coast for a family holiday and surprised my brother-in-law for his 40th birthday. It was a great surprise for him. The food was absolutely fantastic. Chef Paul cooked us a theee course meal, he even catered for our children, which they loved! He was very very nice, friendly and a fantastic chef. I would absolutely recommend him and use him again if I ever needed. He left the kitchen spotless too! Perfect. My brother-in-law said it was the best surprise. When you get to 40 it’s memories that make a birthday special and this certainly did! Thank you. I found poptop website great and easy to use.
