Excellent menus and exemplary service

"Nothing is ever too much trouble for Tony and his team. We have been using Cooks Catering for a number of years for an annual event where members of the press are invited to our premises. He has never let us down and the menus are always imaginative and mouth-watering."

Fantastic corporate event catering!

"Having recently started in a new role, I was reliant on Tony and his team helping to bring everything together perfectly for the first corporate event I had been tasked with arranging. Nothing was too much trouble, and Tony went out of his way to ensure that every guest had something suitable for their dietary requirements. The food was superb in every way and Tony was such a delightful man to work alongside. Whatever event you are planning I would have no hesitation in recommending Tony and Cooks Catering as the team for the job, they will certainly surpass your expectations and I only hope that there will be the opportunity to bring him on for future events we may hold. Thanks Tony :-)"

Outstanding Service and Value

"I hired this company to provide the catering for a wedding breakfast I was holding at my home. I have nothing but the highest praise for it - and for its leader - Mr Tony Martin. From the very first moment of meeting him and beginning to discuss the arrangements, I had nothing but the greatest confidence in both him and his Company. The service which was then provided on the actual day was totally outstanding - utterly professional, caring, thoughtful, conscientious - and absolutely nothing was too much trouble. Also the service provided was exceptional in its value for money. This factor perhaps impressed me the most - that Tony was interested only in providing the best possible service - whatever the cost. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Cook's Catering. They really are outstanding. And Tony - you're a star!"
