We first came across Buen Apetito when friends of ours used them for their wedding, and the food was so delicious that we knew we had to enquire with them for our own big day – honestly, it was the best decision we made!
From start to finish, the team were so friendly, accommodating, and professional. They worked seamlessly alongside another surprise supplier we had booked – a singing waiter that only the bride and suppliers knew about – and it all flowed perfectly on the day.
The food itself was absolutely outstanding and became such a talking point of the wedding. Guests were raving about it, with many going back for seconds (and even thirds!). We were especially grateful that they kept back separate boards for my husband and me during the drinks reception to make sure we actually got to eat something – such a thoughtful touch and such a yummy treat. On top of that, we were served our wedding breakfast first, which meant we could start enjoying it straight away before getting swept up in the excitement, which was really appreciated.
The weather was also on our side, so having the food served outside in the sunshine made everything feel even more special – it was such a lovely touch and looked incredible too.
What impressed us just as much was how considerate and flexible they were with allergens and dietary requirements. Some of our guests had quite serious allergies, but nothing was too much trouble for the team, and everything was handled with such care and reassurance.
We couldn’t recommend Buen Apetito highly enough for any event, especially weddings. They helped make our day so special, and I really hope I get to attend another event where they’re catering soon – their food is just incredible!

We are still so blown away by the delicious wedding breakfast you put together for us and the incredible service last year! Our friends and family are still telling us how delicious the food was and loved the interactive nature of the paella being served. The team who stayed on to run the bar were as excellent! We loved them!
Thank you so much! We even had the pleasure of having more Buen Apetito food at a friends wedding last month, and it was as good as I can remember it from out wedding.

Buen Apetito were absolutely amazing as our wedding caterers! From start to finish, they went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly – and most importantly, that everyone was well fed and happy (including us, the couple!).
The canapés were incredible – our guests couldn’t stop talking about them – and they also served our reception drinks with such care and professionalism. The paella (both veggie and non-veggie) was out of this world – full of flavour and perfect for the relaxed, joyful atmosphere we wanted.
Our guests are still raving about the food weeks later. Buen Apetito helped make our day so special – we can’t thank or recommend them enough! -

Buen apetito were absolutely amazing caterers to have at our wedding! They were great from start to finish, when we first enquired they sent us a huge brochure which had all of the information you needed which was really appreciated and so useful, they were also really great at responding to any queries we had throughout the entire process. We were able to go and taste the food before the wedding which was amazing as well! On the day it was completely seamless, we chose for people to be able to go up and get their own food and the set up looked amazing, and the food was incredible. So many of our guests said how good the food was and that they went up for seconds which we were so happy to hear. The antipasti starters were also a great hit and were placed on the tables as soon as people arrived for the wedding breakfast. I cannot recommend buen apetito enough, especially if you want a relaxed wedding breakfast but are not wanting to cut down on quality at all! Superb x

Andy, Debbie and team catered our wedding just last weekend, and we're absolutely fantastic. They are professional, friendly, considerate, and most importantly cooked up delicious food across the board. Everyone enjoyed the food, and the relaxed dining was faultless.
If I were ever to need a caterer for an event I would not hesitate to pick these guys, really can't express enough how fantastic they are. -

Andy and the Buen Apetito team recently provided canapés, one pots, and evening food for our wedding reception and we honestly couldn’t have been happier. The food was absolutely delicious — so many of our guests went back for seconds (and thirds!).
Andy was so approachable and always quick to reply to my endless emails! He and his team went above and beyond on the day, and we honestly couldn’t recommend them enough. Thank you so much! -

I cannot recommend Andy and team enough. The whole experience from first contact to the end has been outstanding. The food was amazing, we had canapés, paella and evening food. The guests were super complementary of the food, especially the smoked salmon and cream cheese Yorkshires!!!! Andy and team were so kind and supportive of us on the day. Truly could not have asked for more. Thank you.

So so thankful to Buen Apetito. I’d previously worked with Buen Apetito some years ago in a professional capacity when they catered for a corporate event, so selecting them for our wedding was an easy decision.
My now-husband was immediately bought into them - he loved their generous portions, and fun, interactive catering experience. Our tasting before the wedding was a huge success, and we were kindly given extra portions to take home, which we shared with our family who were excited for the real deal on the wedding day.
Buen Appetito thought of everything. We had an at-home DIY wedding on our smallholding, but Buen Appetito made it easy and were entirely self-sufficient. Our wedding coordinator also loved them!
They provided beautiful terracotta dishes which looked incredible on the tables, and catering service was slick, efficient, generous and most importantly - tasty!
We created menus for each place setting, and I have very fond memories of my dad perusing the menu, deciding what to have for his second portion. Some of our guests even went up for thirds! We opted for the buffet service option, and I’m so glad we did. Our guests could watch the paellas and dishes being cooked, they could pick-and-mix from the variety of dishes, and it provided incredible photos (our photographer was so excited to get some photos of the dishes and heat!). It really added another layer to our wedding as an experience for our guests, and our wedding was description by several as the “classiest wedding they’d ever attended” - so don’t think that the buffet service is the lesser option. We’d chose it again, given the chance!
Thank you Andy, Johnny, Debbie and the team. We couldn’t be happier! -

Andy and the Buen Apetito team provided us with a relaxed buffet paella dining service and canapés for our wedding and it was perfect! The food was incredible, all the staff were so friendly and helpful. They are great for covering dietary requirements and had so much choice for gluten free, dairy free, vegetarians, vegans and meat eaters alike. Would absolutely recommend Buen Apetito and would love to use their service again sometime!

Andy and the team catered at our wedding in March. The food was fantastic and they offered such a vast selection to choose from. We went for 2 types of Paella, Tuscan chicken and chilli with the trio desserts. All were delicious, with plenty of guests going up for seconds, and possibly thirds.
The team were so friendly, really knowledgeable about allergies and the pricing was so straight forward. We would definitely recommend Buen Apetito. Thank you for making our day so special. -

Buen Apetito catered for our wedding at Colehayes Park. Their professionalism was first class. The menu, communication and the pre tasting was amazing. Nothing was too much trouble for them!!
Andy was great to deal with and helped us through the planning and menu for the wedding.
On the day the food was fantastic, from the canopies to the 3 main courses! We even had seconds!!!
They also supplied us with an evening grazing menu which was amazing. Everyone said it was tremendous. We all were quite full from the main course, so couldnt eat it all and saved it till the next day.
The breakfast meal, in the morning was superb too! People queueing up for seconds!!
Special thanks to Debbie, Josh and Jonny and team who worked so hard preparing and cooking and serving us!! They were there all day and most of the evening as well as returning the next day to do the breakfast!
Would absolutely recommend them!!!
Thankyou so much for making our wedding a day to remember!! -

It’s difficult to know where to start but this review is 5 star plus! I actually need 10 stars!
Andy, Debbie ,Joshua and Jonny enabled us as a family to successfully and calmly navigate the organisation of a “celebration of life” reception following our mums funeral. From the outset of enquiry to the delivery of the reception held at our home Buen Apetito were responsive, friendly, and respectful not to mention the delicious and plentiful canapés and magnificent grazing table. (Even takeaway boxes provided for those travelling distances or needing to leave early.)
A brilliant family run catering service delivered in a personal and intimate manner by a super talented crew! They certainly helped us celebrate a wonderful life, we can’t thank them enough. Simon & Debs Kerr

Buen were absolutely fantastic and completely blew us out the water! Not only was the food exceptional and scrummy, but the staff were so welcoming, caring and went above and beyond to make our wedding day fantastic! It felt like i'd known them for years, and very much felt them to be a part of the wedding.
Would recommend to anyone! Thank you Buen, we are so grateful!
