Absolutely fabulous hot buffet for my 50th , everyone commented saying it was the best buffet they’ve ever seen , highly recommend

We cannot recommend Sandra and her team highly enough! We had an amazing wedding day and they couldn't not have been more helpful and friendly! The food was exquisite and our guests talked non-stop about the buffet and then the beautiful pizzas freshly made in the evening. I loved that Sandra even came over to me and handed me food, making sure I ate something amidst the chaos of a beautiful day! Best decision we made to have this company to cater for us! Thank you all so much!!xxx

Sandra and her team did a super job of our wedding food. They managed to BBQ in some pretty rainy conditions, and prepared some really delicious food. Catering for 130 people is no mean feat, and they did an awesome job. I highly recommend North East Pig on a Spit. Thank you once again!

Thank you also for all your hard work in making this happen - you have been very patient with me especially after the mix up over the dates.

Good Morning Sandra,

I hope this email finds you well.

I just wanted to say on behalf of Elswick Harriers that the buffet food supplied on Saturday evening went down a treat and was most enjoyable. I don’t think there was much left!

I’m sure we will use Deli – Farm again in the future and I would have no hesitation in recommending your company for functions and parties.

Wedding Breakfast Crook Hall 28th August 2015

Hi Sandra, Just wanted to say thank you for your help and to let you know that the hog roast was a BIG success. We did manage to have drinks in the garden first but it turned really chilly about 3:30 and we had just decamped to the "party room" when the roast arrived. Masses of lovely food and even though many had seconds, friends still went home with doggie bags of everything - but I had first pick. All delicious but the crackling was unbelievably good. How do you manage that!!! We should be returning your plates on Wednesday.

Thank you once again. Anthea & John Thomson Drop-Off 26th July 2015

Hog Roast Appleby 4th April 2015

Dear Sandra and Iain,

I just wanted to thank you both.

Sandra who's over the seas and far away and Iain who was closer to home and was able to 'oversee' proceedings and make sure all went to plan. It did.

What a perfect service you provided.

The food arrived at 2.00 as requested and as promised. It was faultless and everything cooked to perfection. Enjoyed and commented on by everyone....... of course have given your name (and even number to a few) and will be highly recommending you and your team to anyone else who asks. Your 'drop off' menu was ideal for the size of party we were hosting and I was lucky to have found you.

Thank you both and the whole entire team who enabled us to have such good food for what turned out to be a brilliant day.

If you want to use us for a referral to anybody who is unsure of your 'drop off' menu I would be delighted to give you a glowing reference although I am sure you don't need it.

Thank you so so much.

Hope you had the time of your life in Oz Sandra...... hope you now get a break Iain!!

Cheers

I have been meaning to send this since Sunday to say how much Ray and I and also all of our guests enjoyed the hog roast. The pork was delicious and the vegetarians also enjoyed the nut roast. Most of them went home with a "doggy bag" of pork sandwiches and we have had several meals for this week and the freezer!

Janet Bower Piramal Family Day 14th April 2012

Hi Sandra,

Just want to say how well everything went on Sunday. The guys were so organised & efficient. Of course I'd way over catered with my estimate on numbersbut nothing was wasted. Every guest had nothing but praise for the quality of the food - it was all fantastic. There are a number of chefs in my family and very many keen cooks and foodies so it was important from my perspective that I served good quality food. How they managed to produce so much crispy crackling was amazing! The pig-on-a-spit certainly helped make my 60th one to remember.<
