We just wanted to say thank you so much for everything you and the team did for us. Yesterday was absolutely magical for us and we are so grateful for everything you did leading up to and on the day. The food and service was absolutely perfect and beyond our dreams. And we appreciate so much how much you and David/Miles/team went out of your way to accommodate our (demanding!) menu. It turned out even better than we had imagined - and all our guests were extremely complimentary about the food and service. The venue is perfect but you and your team manage to make it even more special.

Thank you so much for what can only be described as an [absolutely] brilliant day. We were so happy with the full experience of having our wedding with you at Lauderdale House. From working with Kay to get everything into place, to Peter’s warm and calming energy on the day, to the impeccable timing and staffing of the food and evening activities. It has been such a pleasure and we are so happy with every element of the run up and the day! Please pass on our thanks to David too - the pies and sticky toffee pudding were DELICIOUS and we have had a lot of comments on them.

I wanted to offer a testimonial for you and couldn’t see how to do so on Google - so here it is: I attended a memorial service recently at Lauderdale House. From the moment I arrived I was impressed by Pink. A polite & friendly welcome was offered by servers who were very smartly dressed. The food was excellent, from the canapés to the delicious buffet. The service was highly professional and attentive without being intrusive ( offers to refresh drinks, for example). The presentation of the buffet was outstanding. I would not hesitate to approach this company for my own event in the future. Thank you to all.

I’m sorry it has taken me so long to be in touch to say thankyou for all you did to make Huw’s reception so lovely. I really appreciated the care the team took to make sure everyone was well looked after. They were all very attentive and very professional. The food was delicious…perfect comfort food after a sad morning. I’m sorry I didn’t get a chance to say thank you on the day but I saw you from afar managing everything and I felt very reassured which was brilliant. Thank you also for putting up with the emails and the over planning… I hope you can forgive me!

I just want to say that this is the most worthy invoice I have ever paid in my life, you can quote me! Kay and her team were phenomenal, I’m still reeling from such a fantastic weekend, so I haven’t quite got around to thanking Kay personally, but everyone raved about the food, and the service was superb!
Thank you so so so much. We had the best day of our lives.

I wanted to thank you so very much for the wonderful evening you provided foc us. You were all so nice and welcoming and made it easier for a rather reluctant 70 year old! So many people commented on the food saying how delicious it was. So I hope it will result in you getting more business. Hope your work goes from strength to strength.

We have been using the Pink Food company for a few years now for our childrens birthday party's and we will never go anywhere else. Merrilees understands exactly what we are looking for. Delicious, adventerous, so fresh and simple. We have never had a children's party where all the food has been eaten until now! We look forward to many more parties with Merrilees and hopefully not just children's.

We absolutely loved having our wedding at Cecil Sharp House and have the best memories to treasure. We’d do it all over again if we could. The staff were friendly, flexible and professional yet relaxed throughout. It is a fantastic, beautiful space to hold any event in and all our guests were wowed by the whole place, especially the Kennedy Room. The caterers Pink were wonderfully helpful and the food was amazing. Thank you to all in the CSH team!

Thank you very much. We had a lovely party on Sunday night. Your staff looked after us very well, and we all enjoyed the food a lot. I think I perhaps I had under ordered the canapés, as there must have been closer to 80 people who came but the bowl food made up for it, and they were delicious. Thank you to you and your staff, they really were very attentive, pleasant and helpful. It all worked out really well, and a successful celebration.

Pink catered our daughter’s wedding reception at Cecil Sharp House and produced a magnificent Italian-themed feast that was commented on favourably by many of the guests. From beginning to end they took the trouble to understand our requirements and tailor the menu to our precise wishes. They were extremely patient as we made a series of menu changes and the final result exceeded our expectations. As a team they were great to deal with and the service on the day was excellent.

Pink Food catered our Golden Wedding reception for 100 guests in September 2014 at the Church of St Mary the Virgin, Primrose Hill. The whole church was used. It was a great venue and looked wonderful and the food was praised by all our guests. Pink were great in liasing with the Church, in setting up and taking down and the service was brilliant.
