What our clients are saying...
Our sincere thanks to you and your team for the excellent catering yesterday. We and our guests were truly wowed by the quality of the service and food.The canapés were beautifully presented, and delicious too. We also received lots of compliments from the guests with dietary requirements who were very well catered for. All your staff were friendly and professional - no wonder you have won so many awards!

Thank you so much for the professionalism and the care that you brought to our wedding on Saturday. The food was exceptional and much appreciated by our guests who were bowled over by the creative menu. We knew that it was all in safe hands. It was a pleasure working with you on it.

I just wanted to thank you, and your whole team for all that you did at our wedding. I know that logistically the rain could not have made your job any harder! Yet despite everything, our guests enjoyed themselves (which was really important to us), and everyone said the food was the best they had ever been served at a wedding. So thank you all so much, for doing so much more than we anticipated and for making our day enjoyable despite the circumstances.

We really wanted to write to say thank you so much for everything you did. We were really impressed with how well organised the event was and the food was excellent. You worked so hard to make sure it ran as smoothly as it did and we really appreciated that, as we could just enjoy the day. So many of our friends and family have commented on how good you and your staff were, so thank you. You really helped make our day special.

We had the best day and in no small part thanks to the fab folk at Appetite Direct. Thanks again for making everything run so smoothly on the day. What a laugh. We had a total ball!

The first and most important function of the staff at Appetite was to establish trust between them and us. Sample menus and proposals quickly demonstrated an understanding of what private clients want. Transparency and a fair approach which mirrors how one would hope to be treated, rather than a compliance with the accepted norms of the world of corporate entertainment. From our experience of dealing with Appetite I can only say that it actually looked as though someone had sat down, deconstructed the usual approach taken by caterers, taken out the annoying niggling bits, left all the best bits in, then put it all back together again.
Another major advantage is that Appetite is independent. They are not tied in to any particular venue and just as importantly none of the venues we visited with their staff were tied in to working with them. Ultimately what won us over was that the staff at Appetite did not solely involve themselves as caterers but their role was much more one of hand-holding through the whole process. Advice on all other elements of our event was freely given when requested and from a perspective of experience.
Once our decision was made, we were kept closely abreast of developments as and when they arose. A wide choice of menus was offered, again at very reasonable prices, and once options were narrowed down, a tasting was arranged which was a delight. The chef was in attendance and freely offered advice as to changes which could be made if there were reservations about any elements of any of the meals selected and ultimately we catered for a dizzying array of dietary requirements. The attitude was very much one of "can do" not "no can do"; much more "why not?" than "why?"! Nothing was too much trouble. To accommodate the required numbers at our preferred venue staff worked tirelessly to turn the room around and it is solely as a result of this that our event went ahead as we wanted it, where we wanted it.”
