I cant recommend Nick and Food by Hope highly enough. We had an amazing 5 course dinner, along with bread. All courses were outstanding, and Nick and his team's service was perfect. I will definitely be using Food by Hope again and recommending to others - everything was faultless. Rave reviews by everyone that attended!

What a FANTASTIC find! These guys were amazing, from booking to service, I couldn't fault them! Exceptional customer service with a real friendly team providing some of the best BBQ food we've ever had. Set up and clear down was done so smoothly and efficiently, it really enhanced our work to not have to worry about clearing up or sorting anything out, they did it all! The quality of food was incredible and we will definitely be using them again!

We had the best experience with Chef Lopez! Such a professional and calm demeanour and the food was absolutely delicious. Really generous portions but we couldn’t bear to leave any behind so we ate until we could not move. I would highly recommended Chef Lopez and we hold most definitely book him again. Thank you for a great evening

I cannot recommended Antony enough! He offered a menu full of flavour and home grown produce. He was polite, a great host and left the kitchen spotless. Will be hiring again. Thanks Antony!
