Wedding "We cannot recommend highly enough
Hog-Roast-Direct. They supplied the marquee and catering
for our Son's Wedding and we could not fault their
organisational and management skills. The day went
without a hitch thanks to their creative ideas and
detailed planning with great home cooked food and their
marvellous hard working and personable staff. Nothing
was to much trouble and they created a truly magical day
for us all. We would not hesitate to use their services
again and would be happy to recommend them to all our
friends". Doug and Julia B of Haslemere, Surrey

Thank you so much for the Hog Roast on Saturday. It was
great to work with such nice, friendly people. The food
was delicious and people at church today were saying
what a great success it was. We were also impressed at
the way you left the church clean and tidy. We certainly
would not hesitate in recommending you to other
churches/schools and friends. So thanks once again, Jane

Dear Peter & Sue (and everyone) "How do I start
to thank you for everything you did to make my daughters
wedding day the success it was. You were all wonderful,
and the hog roast was more than perfect and several
people have asked for your details including the owner
of the venue, which as you know is only allowed to be
hired out in August. The rest of the time it is strictly
private but he hosts many events there for family and
friends. He said he had never tasted such a wonderful
roast and that your staff were all so friendly and
efficient. Thank you for leaving everywhere so tidy. A
special thanks to Sue for making it all so perfect. I am
basking in her reflected glory as I have received thanks
from everyone who attended. My daughter wanted a happy
country wedding and, mainly due to you she got exactly
that.
I will send photos of the barn as promised when I get
them. Thank you again Kind Regards" H**** C******* (name

Dear Peter, I was very pleased with all aspects of your
service, unfortunately both Debbie and I were so busy
ensuring our guests had a good time that we actually
forgot to eat any of the food ourselves! So much for an
informal wedding. However I have been reassured to
receive several compliments from guests, who all
commented on the quality of the catering. I would like
to give specific thanks to your staff who really could
not have been more helpful, it would only appear
patronising were I to go on too much. Jim H****

guests - Secret Location
This event was a Blue Chip Corporate client
launching a new product. We provided Teak Furniture,
heating, main course, desserts, drinks and other
services to the International Press, our principles and
their employees. This was a secret location in
the South of England where our guests were ambushed by
Special Armed Services in a volley of machine gun fire,
grenade and rocket attacks. Whilst under attack, guests
were rescued by trained drivers in fleet of the new
4 x 4 Mercedes-Benz M-Class off road vehicles and
taken to a place of safety for a drink and some food !
Dear Peter, I have had a lot of feedback from our guests
who all thought that the food and the service you
provided was well balanced for the location and
activities during the week particularly the teak
furniture with the table heaters. Please thank all your
staff....and we hope to be seeing you soon at the next
event...Rob

thank you to you and all of your staff for the fantastic
hog roast that you hosted for our wedding a couple of
weeks ago. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed the whole day and
especially the food - I believe that there wasn't much
left at then end! Sue & Max were great and we hope that
they had everything that they needed. Please thank them
for us - they went overboard in setting out the
strawberries for us, that was something that we were not
expecting. We hope that they had a good day too. Suzi

Zapcat Racing - August
Thank you so much, in return, we haven’t had a
caterer who not only delivered what he said he
would but also much much more. Lots of our
competitors and guests commented on how good the
food was and we were all very impressed. Your
girls were a credit to you, and I would have no
hesitation in recommending you and your team.
I was delighted and relieved (having been let
down before) that your team were so professional
not only with your catering, but in also helping
me out with the refreshment side of things as
well as everything else. The party was
resounding success and I am 100% sure that we
will repeat the process next year and I would be
delighted if you would look after us again on
the catering front........... Thank you once
again for making our evening the success that it
was. - Hayling Island - Hampshire
