Testimonial

  • EatDrink catered our wedding in February 2020 and we couldn't have asked for a more professional, friendly and amazing team. The food was exquisite and has had a long lasting impression on all of us, from the mezze grazing table right through to our beautiful gelati parlour. Simon put together such a beautiful menu for the day, which truly felt like a gourmet food experience. Caia, and her staff were absolutely incredible - so professional, attentive, kind and lovely to everyone on the day.
    From our first email right up to saying goodbye on the night, the team has been kind, professional, generous and helpful - it’s been truly appreciated from the get go. All of our guests commented on what an incredible day it was and how the food and service was impeccable. We couldn't speak more highly of the eat drink catering team. they created such a magical and memorable day for us.

  • We have had the pleasure of engaging Eatdrink Caterers on 5 occasions, 1 small cocktail party for 15 guests, 2 private formal dinners for 8 guests each in a remote venue (no kitchen on site), 1 wedding for 110 guests (again a remote venue with no full kitchen) and 1 casual pool party with food station for 49 guests. The quality of food and the attentiveness and professionalism of staff has not wavered in any of these situations. Great inventiveness and variety of menu options is a strength of Eatdrink. Local fresh ingredients, well prepared and served with graciousness is also a trademark. Pre-event communication is clear and well organised. I would not hesitate to recommend them for small, medium or large events.

  • The photos are beyond amazing let us know if you want more...
    We just wanted to say you and the team at Eat Drink Catering not only created a fresh and delicious tasting menu for our Byron Bay wedding but also managed to make it look too good to eat. Almost every guest remarked on how impressive the catering and food styling was - rare for a city crowd! Thank you!
    Hope all is good with you and best of luck for the year ahead.

  • Hi Simon, I was a guest at Lorilie’s 60th birthday celebrations last Sunday. The service was so exceptional that I felt compelled to ask the staff who I could make a comment to.
    The food was just fantastic but it was the amazing service that I felt needed to be commended. The staff was extremely attentive, accommodating and incredibly friendly. In fact, the staff and the extraordinary service was one of the absolute highlights of a sensational party.
    In particular I would like to mention three staff members who really went ‘above and beyond’, they were: Mabil-Lee, Lisa and Sam. They were just so friendly and seemed to anticipate our every need. I can honestly say I cannot recall ever experiencing such exceptional service before. It is an absolute credit to you and your catering firm. I will certainly be keeping Eat Drink’s details for my own events in the future and also to recommend to others.
    All best wishes,
    Damien

  • Just wanted to say a huge thankyou to you all and your amazing team at Eat Drink. Clay and I had an amazing wedding day thanks to the smooth running of the day by Mo the event coordinator and all staff. Everyone commented on how delicious and well presented the food was and we couldn’t be happier. You were all such a pleasure to deal with leading up to the event which made everything a lot less stressful! I would highly recommend anyone having an event in Bryon Bay to use your services.
    Thanks again!

  • Now home and post wedding I just wanted to take time to thank you for the wonderful job Eatdrink did in catering for our daughters wedding held at the A & I Hall in Bangalow with 109 guests.
    The food was delicious, fresh, plenty of it and interesting. From the mezze platter at the start, the little food served continuously for an hour, and then the feasting sit down meal everything was superb! Our guests have continued to rave over the choice of food, the presentation and taste! AND, no one left hungry!
    The staff were friendly, smiling, efficient, nothing was too much trouble. You run a very efficient, professional business, you made it easy for us, enabling us to just get on and enjoy the day.
    The documentation and quoting was bang on! Every detail set out to ensure smooth running. You do it very well.
    I was particularly impressed with the clean up at the end after all guests had left, thank you so much.
    I would not hesitate to recommend Eat drink to anyone looking for a catering company.

  • “Words cannot express the sincere gratitude to you and your team for the amazing support and hard work leading up to and during the 10th Anniversary Celebration of Gaia Retreat & Spa. Without the great commitment and work of outstanding suppliers such as yourselves we would be at a loss to be able to deliver the service we do to our valued guests. Thank you enough for your incredible support. You jumped in at the 11th hour to deliver the most outstanding banquet. Your rich subtlety of flavours and the quality of food combinations entwined with stunning presentation – was simply superb! Our guests were lining up for seconds….

  • “Having EAT DRINK cater our wedding and recovery brunch was absolutely one of the best decisions we made. Your food was delicious, plentiful, of extraordinary quality, exquisitely presented and is still — months on — a talking point of our guests. Your organisation of every element completely exceeded expectations and we were left with nothing to do but enjoy the celebration. I couldn’t recommend using your coordination services highly enough! Our wedding was way beyond what I dreamt of and a huge part of that is thanks to your support, professionalism and guidance.

    Thank you.

  • We went to Bec and Nick's on Saturday night. I cannot say how spectacular it was, and how absolutely gorgeous your staff were!! I asked for a glass of ice early in the night, to add to my champagne, and I never asked again, or for a champagne. The food was sensational too, especially the antipasto platter. So please thank them all, from us all. We had a great night, and were looked after so well.

The venue had some tricky aspects - no problem for these guys. Professional yet easygoing and fun, they know their stuff.
