  WOW. Is all I can say about the service and food. From the start of enquiring all the way to the day of our wedding Andy, Debbie and team were there every step of the way. Nothing was too much for them and our guests are still saying how amazing the food was. We researched a lot into catering especially as we knew that Paella and tapas was the one thing we desperately wanted and so glad we booked the BEST in the business. Thank you so much Andy, Debbie and team you made our day perfect.

  Andy and his team did a great job at our wedding. They were friendly and professional from the our initial enquiries right through to the end of the day. The paella was delicious and a number of people came up to say how good the food was. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending them.

  Before the wedding Andy was so helpful, always answering questions quickly and being so helpful with everything. A DIY wedding is difficult and he came to the venue to meet us at the venue to help work out everything that needed to be done for the day, helping us with things we hadn't even thought about! Unfortunately the weekend of our wedding the "beast from the east" had arrived and the whole country was under snow and having significant problems and Andy and his team were in one of the the worst hit places. I cannot thank him enough for how helpful and calming he was on the very stressful day before the wedding. Even though I am sure he travelling in dangerous conditions with only a small team we were so grateful that they were able to make it on the day. The food was amazing, paella and evening BBQ and we had so many compliments from everyone. With all the problems we have no idea how he managed to pull it off but we could not be more grateful! I know we were so lucky to have such reliable and determined caterers for our day especially as we came soo close to cancelling everything. Cannot recommend Buen Apetito enough!!

  We used Buen Apetito for my daughters wedding. From the initial enquiry 12 months before to the actual wedding day contact with Andy and Debbie was first class. They visited the venue when passing (bearing in mind this was 100 odd miles from where they live) to check the facilities and outside areas. We had an evening where they came and cooked delicious paella, the food was fab and their company great. Andy and Debbie came the day before to set up, it was just like they were part of our party who were helping us decorate the venue, they are exceptionally easy to get along with and so helpful. On the day of the wedding they sorted out the DJ, singer and even turned on many many tea lights and strings of lights before we arrived for the wedding breakfast. Their staff are as superb as them, they were friendly, efficient and nothing was too much trouble making the day effortless, leaving us to enjoy and party! The food was FABULOUS, from the canapés to 3 different paella’s and delicious burgers in the evening. The comments from family and friends reinforced we had made a perfect choice in Buen Apetito. We couldn’t fault any of it. We couldn’t have wished for better caterers and wouldn’t hesitate in recommending them...10/10 and more from us all. Andy and Debbie...Thank You...

  Impossible to find fault, Andy and Debbie were supremely professional and efficient on Saturday evening. The Paellas and canapés were excellent. The set up and clear up was smooth from start to finish and everyone said how great the food was. Would definitely recommend and use again. First class catering for a very reasonable price.

  Andy, Debbie and the whole team were amazing throughout the planning, preparation and on our wedding day. Not only did they serve INCREDIBLE paella, but nothing was too much trouble from serving drinks to changing the room around for the evening. Start to finish Buen Apetito were great - they really made the day even more special. Everyone loved the food - we can't recommend them highly enough! Thanks again for everything you did for us!

  Book Buen Appetito!
  
  Of all the professional services we booked, or researched, for our wedding, Andy and Debbie at Buon Appetito were by far the easiest, most professional, flexible and accommodating.
  
  When they say nothing is too much trouble, it really isn't but unlike others it doesn't all come at additional cost. We had a budget, Buen Appetito respected that and worked within it. They came out and cooked for us in advance of the booking. Debbie prepared sample canapes and Andy cooked paella for seven of us. This was not the easiest seven either. A father-in-law who was a little reticent and not a lover of "foreign" food, a 15 year old whose favourite dish is paella, a 7 year old who at the time only really liked sausages, a fiancee who can be a little fussy and a fiance that likes to think he can point out where master chefs go wrong were all amongst the group. Seven empty plates told its own story!
  
  We chose our favourite canapes (not an easy choice because so many tasted, and looked fantastic) and opted for a paella marisco (seafood) and a paella valenciana (chicken and chorizo) along with a vegetarian paella and our favourite desserts, again a difficult choice due to all the delicious options.
  
  We barely knew that Andy and Debbie were around as they set up their prep area on Friday since they just got on with their own thing amongst the chaos surrounding them. They are totally self sufficient and put absolutely no demands on us for anything.
  
  On the day they were all set up and ready to cook on the dance floor in front of our guests. Three huge paella pans on display and smartly presented staff. Despite our best efforts at keeping to a time schedule the photographs over ran. Andy happily delayed cooking by 30 minutes to ensure that the food was cooked to perfection for when we sat down.
  
  Service was swift and efficient, (nothing worse than being the last table to be served having waited an age) and there was enough for everyone to go back for seconds,even thirds in some cases and it was all delicious. There was nothing left over bar one small portion of vegetable paella and all our guests commented on how fantastic everything was. The evening buffet was equally sumptuous although we perhaps didn't need quite as much as we ordered due to the paella having been such a hit.
  
  All in all, Buen Appetito were the consumate professionals but also the loveliest, most helpful people to deal with.
  
  We would have no hesitation in recommending Andy and Debbie to anyone. Buen Appetito!! Jon and Caroline

  Buen Apetito provided a buffet for our Wedding in September down at Branksome Dene Rooms in Poole overlooking the beach. From the first time I spoke with Andy he put me completely at ease. I was in a fluster trying to arrange all the different aspects of our DIY wedding but he reassured me that once booked we could sort out the finer details nearer the time.
  We had several people who were either vegan or had food allergies and he worked with us to ensure that everyone was catered for.
  On the day Andy & his team just got on and set up. Our timings were a bit loose and they were very flexible.
  The food was absolutely fantastic and we receive comments from pretty much everyone raving about it! I particularly loved the toffee apple crumble but all of the food was delicious.
  If considering outside catering for your event don't even bother shopping around - Andy & his team will provide you with fantastic food and service with a smile.
  Thanks again
  Gill & Stewart

  Andy and Debbie cooked paella for 130 at our wedding back in July and they were brilliant.
  From the minute we got in touch more than a year before they couldn't have been more responsive or more helpful. We couldn't get to taste their paella at a public event so a few months before the wedding they came round to our house and cooked in our kitchen for 4 of us. The food was delicious and we really enjoyed the evening. It was a great way of getting to know Andy and Debbie and really getting a feel for how committed they are to providing an excellent service.
  Around the wedding date, nothing was too much trouble and nothing fazed Andy. The gazebo was put up at our convenience in torrential rain but there were no issues. On the day, Andy and his team just arrived and did their thing really surreptitiously! It was only when the delicious smells started that we realised they were there!
  We have had so many comments from guests about the paella, all of them raving about how delicious it was, how much there was of it, how friendly the team were. The speed with which all our guests were served was incredible.
  We would have no hesitation in recommending Andy and Debbie to anyone. The quality, value for money, convenience and professionalism we received was outstanding and contributed in no small way to the best day ever.
  Many many thanks
  Penny and Jo

  Buen Apetito provided the catering for our wedding breakfast on 29th July 2017 – we chose the plated service, and it was fabulous!!
  The service we received from Andy & Debbie at Buen Apetito was absolutely brilliant. From the very start it was always a personal, friendly and professional service. They were always there to answer any questions in the lead up to the wedding, and were very flexible and easy going. They allowed us to provide our own desserts and were happy to serve these for us, as it was important to us for some of our close family to make our desserts.
  On the day, the service was flawless and the food absolutely delicious! I spoke with Andy when he and his team arrived the day before the wedding, to agree all the final details – nothing was too much to ask and they even upgraded our tablecloths free of charge (to their own expense and hassle as they had to return to collect them the next day!) as those we had requested weren’t available. On the day, everything ran smoothly – they ran our bar for us, served our scones (in place of canapes) & prosecco, and of course served their wonderful paella. The team of staff were all very friendly and went above and beyond to make sure everything ran well – the food was served quickly and efficiently, drinks were kept topped up, tables cleared etc. The smell of the food cooking had everyone’s mouths watering and when it arrived it didn’t disappoint! Everyone loved it, and there was plenty of food – many people went up for seconds, thirds and even fourths!!
  The price they offered was unbeatable by any of the other caterers we enquired with, but nothing was compromised. We are so grateful to Buen Apetito for being part of our wedding day, and for serving such wonderful food that I think everyone will remember!!

  My Husband and I hired Buen Apetito to cater for our wedding at The Art Pavilion in Mile End Park, London this August 2017, and have absolutely no regrets. The food was delicious and every single guest went for second and third helpings of the paella - we received so many comments on how good the food was at the wedding so we definitely knew we had made the right choice in choosing Buen Apetito.
  
  From the very first email, Andy was friendly, helpful and professional which made the choice easy for us to go with this caterer, having researched local London caterers for months we were losing hope! Andy came to the rescue! We told him our budget and he worked with us without trying to push the price up as most London caterers will try to do. We were really impressed that he could provide a three course buffet with evening meal, crockery and glassware despite his location of Devon when we are in central London. He even organised a taste testing for us at my Father-in-Law's house in Devon - cooking so much food we ate paella for the rest of the weekend!
  
  On the day Andy and his team were swift, efficient and accommodating - which was especially appreciated by me as a stressed-out Bride in organisational chaos! Thank you Andy for helping us to make our day so special. We would recommend Buen Apetito unreservedly.

  Andy, Debbie and the team really made our wedding day, they went above and beyond and catered perfectly to our odd requests. The food was truly amaIng and went down a storm with our guests, they helped us keep to our timings and didn't bat an eyelid when things changed last minute. Andy's communication was fab, always quick to reply and he was really reassuring to talk too. I cannot possibly put into words quite how fabulous Andy and his team are! I would thourouly recommend them to everyone!

  Andy and Debbie kindly catered our wedding on the 8th August 2017 and our guests, as well as us, couldn't get enough of their food! Not only was their Paella sensational (out Spanish guests agreed!) they were both so well organised, accommodating, and lovely people to be part of our day! Nothing was too much trouble for this dynamic duo. From cake cutting, to dinner, everything was smooth, fun, and easy. I would have them cater every party we have! If you are looking for a well organised, smooth operation, with great tasting food, these two are the best! Thank you so much for making our wedding such an amazing day. All of our guests are still talking about the paella!
