Testimonials
Ben and his wonderful team catered an event for me in Norfolk. Their food was delicious and served perfectly on time. I really appreciated Ben's clear communication leading up to the event and how self-sufficient he and his team were on the day. Highly recommend to others looking for a Hog Roast caterer!
We had these guys cater our wedding and it went down a treat! Even guests who didn't expect to like hog roasts from past experience absolutely LOVED the one at our wedding. Everyone left happy and full and the staff were lovely too! (As brief of an interaction as I had with them sorry!) Thank you so much!
We would strongly recommend Hog Roast Catering Company. Ben provided an excellent meal, and everyone complimented us on the Hog Roast. Arranging the meal with Ben was easy, everything was on time and his standards are very high. Service was good and clearing away undertaken efficiently. Excellent value for money. Well done Ben!
We had Ben cater for our garden party. Right from the off set he was professional and responded quickly and communicated well. He quoted and visited when he said he would. One the day he was on time and all went to plan as expected. The food was absolutely amazing, so many people went back for seconds and then feedback was unreal. We felt that Ben was really looking out for our best interests throughout the day and would whole heartedly recommend him. His colleague was friendly and nothing was too much trouble.
