    Fosters looked after the catering for our wedding on 27 May '23 at Ufton Court and provided a full wrap around service that also included dressing the tables to our unique specification, running the bar, and all sorts of ad-hoc jobs to ensure the day went incredible smoothly. We had the best day of our lives and much was thanks to Foster's. The food options prior to the wedding were incredibly diverse and provided a wide range of informal and more formal options; we went for the "posh bbq" which was absolutely incredible and something our guests raved about. The options for evening food were equally generous and while we played it safe going for pizza, the pizza did not disappoint and many of our guests have since commented on how good it was. Prior to the wedding ceremony, Foster's also kindly set up an outside temporary bar and served the drinks we provided which added an extra dimension to the day and a really cool way to enjoy the pre-ceremony live music with a drink in the guests hand. While being impeccable caterers, they also ran a fun bar in the evening and weren't phased by some no doubt pretty drunk guests who were making the most of the wedding! They certainly went with the flow and made it a fun filled night. We would recommend Foster's in a heartbeat - we simply couldn't have asked for anything more and, importantly, we felt their prices were equally fair and their food was delicious; so many of our guests have since made comments about the food which speaks volumes. James & Heather

    From start to finish Darren and Kirsty were fantastic to work with. We opted for canapes then a BBQ for our main meal, due to numbers we had it served as sharing platters which worked perfectly. All our guests commented on the food plus the service, saying it was exceptional. For our evening food we had their fabulous breakfast baps which again we're a massive hit. We highly recommend Foster's!

    We are so happy to have chosen Fosters to cater for our wedding (at Ufton Court). We are both vegan, so wanted to have a vegan 3-course sit-down meal for the wedding breakfast and vegetarian/vegan pizzas in the evening. Most of our guests were not veggie/vegan but so many of them (incl. the committed meat-eaters) were telling us in the days and weeks after the wedding how much they loved the food. The most rave reviews were for the sun-dried tomato, spinach & chickpea pie; the avocado chocolate mouse; and the pizzas in the evening. We also had a couple of guests with potentially challenging dietary requirements who were happily catered for. Having compared to a few other catering companies, we felt the price was very good and excellent value for money. The costs were also really clear from the brochure and there were no hidden costs. Darren and Kirsty were great at answering our queries (in person, on Zoom and via email). They were also responsible for the timings and turning the rooms round at the venue, all of which went very smoothly. We are hugely grateful to the whole catering team! Josie & James

    Great caterers, professional and friendly. Weā€™ve had their pizza oven & the dirty fries van. I would recommend both. Darren has also catered at my house and heā€™s an amazing chef !

  • 5/5 Charlie Q. 10 months ago on Google
    We cannot speak highly enough of Fosters. Fantastic food at excellent value. One of the only wedding caterers we came across that had no hidden costs, and were happy to go the extra mile with a few unique choices we made. Our guests loved the food and we were really impressed with the service on the day. They are total pros and know exactly what they are doing - I would absolutely recommend them.

    It was fantastic to have Darren and Fosters as part of our special day. An excellent company who helped ensure our wedding day ran smoothly. Not only did they provide fantastic food they were crucial in the running of the day. The communication throughout the planning process was excellent and they catered for all of our guests who had dietary requirements. We had lots of compliments on how tasty the bbq and pizzas were. Highly recommend to anyone needing caterers for their wedding!

  • 5/5 Mark M. 10 months ago on Google
    Fosters catered for our wedding earlier this month, and they knocked it out of the park. All the food was lovely and the staff were all very friendly. Darren handled our food planning like a proper consultation, happy to work with us on ingredients, and provide suggestions from our vague ideas. The pizza cart was great. Very fresh, and the guys manning it were a right laugh. I would highly recommend them for anyone šŸ˜

    Foster's catered our wedding in February 2023 and we can't thank them enough for making the day so special. Darren, Kirsty and the team were so helpful and professional throughout the entire process, answering our many questions and going above and beyond to ensure everything was stress-free. The Mexican feast and wood-fired pizza at our wedding were absolutely delicious and our guests were singing their praises, with some commenting it was the best wedding food they'd ever had! Foster's also catered really well for children and for our guests with dietary requirements. We would recommend Foster's to anyone, our wedding really wouldn't have been the same without them.

    Fosters Supported at our wedding this May. The food was perfect and all our guests keep commenting on how amazing the food was. The staff were so polite and helpful throughout the day. The support of Darren & Kirsty ahead of time was great and supported with timings and keeping us on track! Thank you so much!

    We booked Fosters for our wedding caterers (at Ufton Court) and were so thrilled with the amazing service they provided from the moment our booking was confirmed. They went above and beyond and we canā€™t thank them enough for making our day so magical. Our guests loved the food and the sharing bbq and pizzas were perfect for the beautiful sunny day we were blessed with. Lots of people commented on how friendly and smiley the Fosters staff members were, which helped to facilitate a lovely, laid back vibe to the day. We knew that Fosters (alongside the brilliant Chloe at Ufton Court) had everything in hand which meant we could truly relax and enjoy our day. During the planning stages Darren and Kirsty were friendly, helpful and always quick to reply to questions. We had a lovely tasting session with them. They ensured we had everything sorted in terms of set up (eg table decor, place names etc) checking in regularly and asking helpful questions ahead of the big day. On the day itself Fosters were so helpful, setting up the barn while also running our drinks reception and meals incredibly smoothly. They noticed I hadnā€™t had a pizza in the evening and boxed me up a special one (which I very much enjoyed at 3am that night!). It is these additional touches (as well as the delicious food of course) that puts Fosters so far ahead of other catering companies. Iā€™m so thrilled we booked them; I truly feel I experienced the best ever wedding catering at my own wedding which is a fantastic feeling! I would recommend them in a heart beat. So many of our guests said our wedding was the best theyā€™d ever attended and I know Fosters played a big part in that. Thank you so much Fosters!

    Weā€™ve eaten at multiple Michelin star restaurants and Fosters food beat them all. We struggled to actually pick what dessert the have they were all so amazing. The food on our day was incredible and all of our guests we so happy. We could not think of anyone better the cater our wedding. They managed our entire day impeccably and recommend them to anyone

    We booked Fosterā€™s Catering for our wedding in September at Ufton Court and we couldnā€™t have been happier with our decision. From the very beginning, all of our interactions with them were fantastic and made the whole process incredibly smooth and easy. Darren and Kirsty were incredibly helpful during our email conversations, initial meeting and tasting session and answered the huge amount of questions we had. Their experience and knowledge was clear and so useful for us to plan and make our day a day to remember. All of the food was spectacular and the wedding was everything weā€™d hoped it would be. One of the hardest decisions we had to make in the whole process was which of the different dishes served at the tasting session we wanted to pick for our menu as they were all incredible! On the day itself, all of the staff were fantastic, polite and couldnā€™t have done more to help us. We were always kept informed and told everything we needed to know and the whole day happened seamlessly without us worrying or needing to think about it at all. Not only were we completely happy with Fosterā€™s, we also received many compliments from our guests about how good the food and staff were. All in all, we donā€™t think we could have made a better choice.

  • 5/5 Ben P. 7 months ago on Google
    Right from our very first meeting with Darren the service that Fosters provided was first class. The tasting menu afternoon was brilliant and really helped us to whittle down our choices. On the day the food, table set up and service we're perfect. We had so many positive comments from friends and family about the meal. I don't think I can find any fault at all and wouldn't hesitate in recommending Fosters, for any event. Thank you all, so much, we loved it.

    Booked Foster's for our wedding in July 2023. Fantastic from first enquiry right through to wedding day. Communication was excellent. Our food (posh BBQ & pizza oven) went down a storm! All of the guests commented on how much they enjoyed the food & all dietary needs were catered for. Would highly recommend Darren & his team. Thank you

  • 5/5 Gemma H. 8 months ago on Google
    Wow!! What amazing catering... From start to finish, Darren, Kirsty and the team accommodated our every request more than happily. The food on our wedding day was very important to us, ensuring it set the tone for the type of day we wanted and Fosters did not let us down. The canapes were incredible and plentiful, the BBQ was delicious and everyone commented on how great it was! The cheese and pizza's in the evening were amazing and went down an absolute storm. Thank you all for ensuring our day was a huge success! Despite the rain :)

  • 5/5 Emma H. 8 months ago on Google
    Darren and the team at Fosters were absolutely amazing! We were so happy with how great they were from start to finish - from the planning leading up to our wedding to how everything was on the day. Nothing was too much trouble for them and we had so many comments about how amazing the food was! Thank you so much Fosters, we couldnā€™t have asked for anything better!!

  • 5/5 Leanne B. 8 months ago on Google
    Wow!!! We thought the food Fosters provided was amazing but since our wedding we have had nothing but compliments & comments about the incredible food which was served. Both BBQ & Pizza was to die for, Darren & his cooks are amazing. We also had fosters supply us with bar staff which was also amazing service. Kirsty kept communicating with my husband & I throughout the day. They even helped with a little mishap with the cake which had nothing to do with them. Kirstys communication leading up to the wedding was spot on. Kirsty & Darren make an amazing team. Wish I could eat your food everyday. Thank you so much, Leigh & Leanne Morris

  • 5/5 Dan Le M. 2 years ago on Google
    Absolutely fantastic team that catered for our wedding. From start to finish the process was smooth, friendly and good value for money. The team on the day were excellent and without them our wedding wouldnā€™t have run the same way! Massive thank you from us!

  • 5/5 Celia H. 1 year ago on Google
    Fosters are amazing! They catered our wedding on 26/11/22. We had an unexpected delay on the day which meant our ceremony happened over an hour later but Fosters handled it all with such ease and patience. The food was incredible, we got married on a cold November day and didnā€™t want anything too formal but also didnā€™t want to compromise on quality and taste - Fosters delivered the most amazing canapĆ©s, sharing platter to start and individual pie and mash for the main - everyone loved it! The whole team during the day were so friendly and a delight to have with us - would 100% recommend! Thank you again Fosterā€™s!

  • 5/5 Pauline F. 1 year ago on Google
    Fosterā€™s provided the catering for our daughterā€™s wedding at Ufton Court last Sunday. We first contacted Darren in Feb 2020 in anticipation of a June 2021 wedding. Unfortunately we had to postpone a year due to Covid and Darren and Kirsty were happy to move the date. There were several options available and the food we chose was truly delicious, well presented and served. They all worked so hard. All our guests were very complimentary saying how much they enjoyed the food from the canapes at the drinks reception to the wedding breakfast and pizza in the evening. The waiting staff also served the drinks we provided for the drinks reception and wedding breakfast. Darren and Kirsty were very professional and we benefitted from their vast experience in catering for weddings with regards to timings for the day and liaising with the venue co-ordinator and other suppliers, which was very helpful. Fosterā€™s were excellent from start to finish and we would happily recommend them to family and friends. Thank you Darren, Kirsty and all your team!

  • 5/5 Vicky W. 1 year ago on Google
    Outstanding service and food. Fosters catered for my wedding of 120 guests, and even though we asked for a complicated, vegetarian-only menu, Darren and Kirsty were brilliant. We got so many comments from the guests saying how great the food was.

  • 5/5 Richard 1 year ago on Google
    We chose Fosters to cater our Wedding in 2020. COVID meant the day had to be postponed twice - Darren and team couldn't have been more flexible and understanding. During the planning phase, they were nothing but helpful, offering advice and expertise all the way through. On the day, the team ran everything slickly and professionally. The main event - the BBQ smoker menu - was superb and every bit as good as we hoped it would be. Even those who "don't like BBQ" changed their minds and everyone went away very well fed. Guests with dietary requirements were very impressed and felt catered for and not an afterthought. Comments from guests have been nothing but positive and for some, the food was the highlight of the day, not the actual wedding!! Big, big thanks to Darren, Kirsty and the Team for playing a big part in making a very special day.

  • 5/5 Jackie K. 1 year ago on Google
    Used Fosters Catering for an after work BBQ. From the outset communication was prompt and efficient. Good choice of menus. On the day, set up was easy and we had a delicious BBQ cooked by Eric with a great selection of salads and meat and vegetarian options and a choice of desserts. Eric was very professional and nothing too much trouble. Would definitely recommend Fosters Catering and will be using again for future events

  • 5/5 Kevin B. 2 years ago on Google
    Fosters provided all the catering for my daughters wedding two weeks ago which had been on hold for two years. The starters were fantastic, the main meal superb and the deserts outstanding. Everyone that I talked to that day raved about your food. I have been to many weddings over the years and never have I had food like theirs. The whole team were very friendly and hard working, ( especially the nice couple running the bar ) Should I ever be in need of caterers in the future these people would be at the top of my list. Ps the breakfast rolls in the evening were also fabulous. Thank you so much for all your efforts. Kev

  • 5/5 Nicole W. 1 year ago on Google
    I cannot recommend Fosters Catering highly enough! They bring together a fantastic blend of great quality food, satisfyingly big portions and a lovely team to make it all happen on the day. We had the pleasure of enjoying their BBQ and smoker packages for our Wedding and our guests couldn't get enough! Everything was managed seamlessly, even with a few last minute changes thrown at them. Brilliant caterers that we would recommend to anyone we come across looking to hire :)

  • 5/5 Rebecca G. 2 years ago on Google
    Fosters provided the catering for our wedding at Ufton Court back in July and we couldn't fault them in any way. Their food is absolutely delicious! All our guests commented on how tasty it was. We had quite a few guests who are vegan or gluten intolerant and they all mentioned how good the team were at looking after them and providing delicious options for them. Darren and Kirsty are so friendly and helpful and communication was always prompt. Kirsty was with us on the day and she was super professional and kept incredibly calm when we had a slight delay to the day and things had to adapt. I'd recommend them to anyone without hesitation. Thank you so much Darren and Kirsty!

  • 5/5 Rich C. 2 years ago on Google
    Thank you so much to Darren and his team for our amazing wedding catering, the food was delicious and plenty of it. We went for the BBQ option and it went down so well with our guest, there wasn't a hungry mouth left at the wedding! Would highly recommend Fosters Catering and we are so happy that you were part of our wedding!

  • 5/5 Natalie M. 3 years ago on Google
    Thank you so very much for delivering my Mumā€™s hamper & flowers on Motherā€™s Day when we canā€™t visit her. Wonderful service, your food is amazing. Thank you Darren & the team, A1 service

  • 5/5 Jess B. 2 years ago on Google
    Amazing company to deal with, so helpful in the run up to our wedding and accommodating when plans kept changing due to covid including our wedding date changing and numbers changing up until very close to the wedding date. Both being vegetarian, we opted for all food at the wedding to be vegetarian and all our guests loved the food despite the majority of them not being vegetarian. Could not fault Fosters in anyway, they were amazing throughout and so glad we had them as our caterer! Would 110% use them for other events and recommend them to friends and family. Thank you so much!

  • 5/5 Helen H. 2 years ago on Google
    Darren and his Team took care of my wedding- and I still have comments months afterwards of people raving about how amazing the food was. I would not hesitate to recommend Fosters Catering for all events. Since our wedding we have sampled countless afternoon tea hampers and burger club and honestly cannot rave over the quality and amazing flavour in every single dish. Great people, great food- you cannot get any better

  • 5/5 Natalie D. 2 years ago on Google
    We were so happy we chose Fosters Catering and they helped us have a flawless day. We got married back in August and our wedding guests are still raving about how much they enjoyed the pizzas. Not only is it great tasting food but the team were also incredibly kind to accept a delay in the food service when a key guest was over an hour late.

  • 5/5 Amy C. 2 years ago on Google
    I just wanted to contact you both and tell you how amazing our food was last Thursday at our wedding at Pitt Hall. All of our guests were blown away including ourselves. Everything from start to finish was amazing and the service was faultless. Please thank all your waiters from us too, you all helped make our day so special and we cannot thank you enough!
