Booked for Celebration

Liza delivered a delicious SE Asian meal for 2 veggies and 2 carnivores. We were all sated and smiling at the end. The service was friendly and professional, and the kitchen was immaculate when finished. I had been nervous to book, but highly recommend. It made a planned special occasion spring to life. Thank you Liza.

Booked for Birthday party

Thank you so much for delivering a delightful afternoon tea for 2 for my mums birthday. My parents absolutely loved it and enjoyed every part of it. They have told me it was all presented and packaged beautifully. Thanks again and would certainly recommend your afternoon tea.

Emma Hewitt27 Jul 2018

Booked for Birthday party

I used the services of Five catering for my husbands surprise 40th BBQ and I was extremely pleased with them. The communication from initial enquiry right through to turning up on time, which was important given it was a surprise, and the quality of food cannot be faulted. The weather was not great but the chef worked out where to position the gazebo and the food so it worked out fine. All my guests commented on how tasty the food was, the variety and even down to the condiments. Simply everything was provided and meant I could fully relax and spend time with our guests. I would definitely recommend Five catering to anyone who wants quality food and catering for excellent value for money. Thank you Five!

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.
