100/10 would recommend!!

We got married (in the wind and rain!) at Cissbury Barns on 22nd August, and Taste Caterer did the most incredible job! We feel so lucky to have had them as our caterers, they were just amazing from day one! Tom, Steve and Charlotte are THE actual dream team; right from the outset, we felt so well looked after, everything was bespoke to our requirements, nothing was too much trouble and the actual quality of all the food from our canapés to our evening food was just the best!! Tom was such a delight to deal with – he was so organised, professional and friendly and provided us with lots of helpful advice and guidance. He was ever-present throughout the whole day, shielded me from the wind and rain, and made sure that both John and I had everything we needed! Meeting Steve at our preliminary meeting was such a joy - hearing the way he spoke about food just further solidified that we’d made the right choice. Steve is an incredibly talented, passionate chef and this is clearly reflected in the amazing food he creates! Charlotte created our wedding stationary which we were so pleased with – her designs were so polished and elegant, and were in perfect harmony with the rest of our wedding aesthetic! We have to mention our favourite bit which were the bespoke Schitts Creek themed table names with accompanying illustrations for each location – these were so beautiful and we loved them! The whole team did such a wonderful job on the day; everyone was friendly, efficient and happy to help - we honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Our guests gave us lots of amazing feedback about the food and the service, which is honestly the icing on top of the cake! All in all, we would HIGHLY recommend Taste Caterer – if you’re looking, take this as a sign and go and book them right now!! A great big huge THANK YOU to the whole team at Taste Caterer! We love you guys!

above and beyond

We will be recommending Taste Caterer to everyone we know! We felt Steve and Charlotte went above and beyond to make sure the food on our wedding day was perfect and we could not be more grateful. Throughout the process they were so friendly and helpful, nothing was too much or too difficult. They totally understood our vision and our guests were just blown away. The food was delicious! It totally made our day and we could not thank them enough.

Taste Caterer absolutely made our wedding day!

Taste Caterer absolutely made our wedding day! Steve, Charlotte and Tom are an absolutely amazing team and we could not recommend them highly enough. If you’re looking for a team that can deliver your vision (and more) and that you can rely on to manage every detail, it’s them! We had some amazing feedback from our guests who loved the food and the service. We were also incredibly impressed with the last minute wet weather plan that the team pulled off, as it was just as great and meant...

'how did they do it in a tent'

The food was absolutely stunning, we enjoyed every bite! I would love to be able to say a favourite but I want to list off the whole menu… we so appreciated how bespoke we could make the menu, it felt so perfect for us. And all the special touches made it so magical. So many of our friends and family and complimented the food and raved about the canapés, mains, desserts and noodles!! Quotes such as ‘the best wedding food ever’ and ‘it felt like a restaurant, how did they do it in that tent’ are

The food was spectacular

We hosted the wedding reception for our son and his lovely wife in our garden and Steve and Charlotte and their team were absolutely amazing. The food was spectacular (Our nephew had been to 6 weddings previously this year and he said the food here was by far the best!!). It was beautifully presented and delicious! The team were so attentive throughout the day and could not do enough for us. Thank you so much you really made the day feel so special!

They will ensure your catering is the talk of town

Steven & Charlotte we absolutely wonderful to work with. From our first consultation with them, they made us feel that they were 100% invested in our wedding theme and were full of ideas on how to theme the food too. They took on board everything we had to say and gave us total freedom to personalise the dishes. They are also fantastic value for money and worth every penny. Not only was the wedding breakfast incredible but the canapés & evening buffet were fantastic too.
