It was lovely that this was one thing we didn’t have to worry about
We just wanted to thank you for your excellent service yesterday. It goes without saying that it’s a stressful time and it was lovely that this was one thing we didn’t have to worry about. Everyone said how wonderful the food was, and how lovely, polite and attentive the staff who served us were. It was clear that a lot of effort and thought had gone into preparing all of the food – the tasty sandwiches were just as they should be - small, no crusts, nice bread and the right amount of filling. It was exactly what we had wanted for the sad occasion – good quality and homemade! Mum would definitely have approved!

Lovely people and amazing food
Dorset Delights Catering came as a suggested catering team from our venue. When we met we spoke of how for our wedding we wanted a relaxed buffet and canapés services that was full of choices and tastes and boy we weren’t disappointed. This amazing catering family team made and served such delicious delights that made all our guest so happy. The team lead by Alice on the day were friendly and caring, offering to get my new mother and father in laws cups of tea as they looked cold. I can’t recommend this group of lovey people and amazing food more.

Superb food, discrete service, and incredibly swift pack
Thank you so much for such superb food, discrete service, and incredibly swift pack up on Saturday. From initial inquiry to when your van drove away, you made it so good. Dorset Delights are simply superb at what they do. From friendly, helpful phone conversations with Alice about the needs for our event, to the superb food and unobtrusive and warm service on the day,they were great! We'd experienced their catering at a previous event, hence booking them for ours, and I am already recommending them to others!Thank you so much Alice and colleagues for helping make the day the success it was.

J Shepherd- Funeral Wake Catering, Sherborne, February 2023
A model of professionalism, friendliness and efficiency
We decided to engage Dorset Delights for a buffet after my Dad’s funeral, to be held at his home. I’m so glad we did.Alice and her colleagues produced a beautiful range of top quality food, and were a model of professionalism, friendliness and efficiency. The food itself was both delicious and perfectly presented. What was particularly nice was how they actively circulated with our guests, offering a good choice to people, many quite elderly, who couldn’t easily make their way to the table.Everyone was so appreciative, and the stress free way our initial approach was handled meant we could relax and concentrate on mingling with our guests and making them feel welcome.I would recommend Alice and her team to anyone thinking about what arrangements to make for such an important event.
G Underhill, Funeral Wake Catering, Weymouth, February 2023
It was perfect- the food, flowers and the service
A heartfelt thank you to you for a wonderful reception for my late mother. It was perfect - the food, flowers and the service. It was so lovely to come into the hall after the service and to find everything completely ready. I do hope you enjoy the flowers. We are leaving tomorrow so it was appropriate that you keep them to brighten your space. Everything was absolutely perfect, I can not recommend you highly enough.
A McFarland- Funeral Catering, Gillingham. February 2023
Thankyou so much to you and your team today
Just wanted to say thank you so much to you and your team today. So many said to us that the service and the delicious food was spot on! Hopefully you’ll be free when we have our garden party this summer. Thankyou again
C Davies- Funeral Catering, Semington Crematorium, February 2023
I could not recommend them more highly to anyone looking for caterers
What made my aunt's wake was the attention to detail and quiet brilliance of Dorset Delights Catering (based in North Cadbury).I could not recommend them more highly to anyone in their area looking for caterers for their wake (or indeed anything).The Conway sisters, Alice and Louise were very communicative, flexible and reasonable with deliciously prepared fresh food and drink which was just the right amount and imaginative, especially with vegetarian and vegan options beyond their illustrative set menus.Beyond a phone call and a few emails to choose, I was able to leave it all in their hands and concentrate on the rest of the day.A small team who set it up, served it with smiles and manner entirely matched to the event, and cleared away afterwards exactly to help manage the tricky "how do you make sure people leave in time to return the venue" question.In short, use them: you won't be disappointed
John- Funeral Catering, Mosterton, February 2023
Numerous people commented on how good it was
Many thanks for a lovely spread at Mums wake. Numerous people commented on how good it was, especially the tartlets and chocolate brownies! It was a relaxed yet professional atmosphere about the afternoon and it was truly appreciated.

Thankyou for the food and smiling service
Now that the emotion of yesterday has diminished I wanted to write and thank you for your food and smiling service in Mosterton which was perfectly judged and delicious.I couldn't have asked for a more apposite setting and manner of serving well balanced, presented, thoughtful and tasty food and drink.Your service style matched our occasion perfectly.As I promised I recommended you strongly to Jo at the Higher Ground Meadow who also provided fantastic service.
J Gower, Funeral Catering, Crewkerne. February 2023
Thank you so much for the wonderful food
I Just wanted to write and say thank you so much for the wonderful food for our funeral wake last Thursday. The food was perfect and commented upon by many of our guests.

An absolutely stunning spread
Thank you, that was an absolutely stunning spread, everyone raved over it. I don't know which item was most popular. And then the presentation was the best I've ever seen and so easy to clear up from, that is so much more pleasant for the organiser who's a nervous wreck by the end of the event. Thankyou so much. I'll also be sure to spread the word.
M Baker- RSPCA, Tintinhull, November 2022

I put my trust in you to organise everything and it was all done so beautifully
Just to say a very big thank you for all you and the team did for my father’s funeral wake on Friday. The flowers were perfect exactly what I had had in mind, thank you. Having Dorset Delights doing the setting up of the venue, the supply of the flowers, the crockery, glasses, cutlery and food etc was just so reassuring. I put my trust in you to organise everything and it was all done so beautifully. A huge thank you to Mary she really is lovely and helped me feel less anxious about the day ahead. The food was absolutely delicious, everyone enjoyed it and said how tasty it was. I would thoroughly recommend Dorset Delights to anyone looking for a professionally run family catering company with great personal care.Dad would have been extremely happy with how the wake went.Thank you all so much for taking a weight off my mind.With warmest wishes and grateful thanks

R Thompson- Funeral Tea, Barrington, November 2022
You made it so easy at a time none of us really wanted to have to think
We had many, many comments on how amazing the catering was and everything you did. Richard who you contacted via the hall said how brilliant you all were too at getting everything organised. Thank you for your fabulous service and food. It really meant a lot and you guys made everything so easy and ran it all so smoothly. We barely had to think and yet it was all there and wonderful. And all your staff were so lovely and friendly. You came to us via a recommendation of someone who had been to a couple of weddings you catered for. I had also enquired with another company about catering but you guys made it so easy at a time none of us really wanted to have to think (and id never organised catering before) with a good varied and delicious sounding menu, so it was an easy decision. Thank you again, it meant a lot to know it was all sorted, tasty and easy so that we could focus on saying goodbye.
E Pope- Funeral Wake Catering, Taunton, November 2022
Thankyou so very much for a wonderful spread
I wanted to thank you so very much for a wonderful spread and your two ladies were absolutely amazing.Although the day was a bit of a blur I heard so many positive words about the catering and I know mum would have been happy and proud with how it went as she was always content if family and friends had a cuppa and a full belly.Once again amazing and many thanks

There was an air of calm and competence in the room that was very welcome
I am writing to thank you for providing the catering following the service of thanksgiving for the life of Sheila on October 21st.

The food you provided was excellent and really enjoyed by everyone. There was an air of calm and competence in the room that was very welcome. Thankyou so much.

I Powell- Funeral tea, Sherborne, October 2022
I would not hesitate to recommend them for any event
From the moment I rang AliceI knew she would be perfect. And so it proved. I walked in the door from my Dad's funeral and Alice and her team were warm and kind, moving unobtrusively through our guests offering drinks and food (all delicious), then later magically cleared up and vanished without me noticing. I would not hesitate to recommend them for any event - they were an absolute pleasure and utterly professional.
E Ricketts- Funeral Wake, Dorchester October 2022

I would just like to thank you for the discreet and unobtrusive way in which you provided the refreshments for Liz’s wake on Friday last.Unfortunately, I didn’t see the hall before everybody started tucking in but anyone who has spoken about it said how beautifully it had been laid out and how inviting it all looked, so thank you very much for the care you took.All the food was excellent and all our guests obviously enjoyed it and the selection that was available.My particular thanks is for the way in which you accommodated our requests for our photos and flowers to be arranged; nothing seemed too much trouble for you and we were delighted in how they added to the celebration of Liz and her life.Thank you again for all you provided by way of service and refreshments.

Your attention to detail,your professionalism and above all your extraordinarily beautiful catering
I don’t know how I can begin to thank you for all your hard work in making the wake such a successful event - your attention to detail,your professionalism and above all your extraordinarily beautiful catering.On what was such a personally difficult day for me your skill and sure touch in managing the wake was and is beyond words,I walked in to the hall and just knew immediately from the volume of noise that everything was going wonderfully!Also the way a glass of red wine magically appeared in my hand was so much appreciated!Am so sorry that I didn’t see you before you left but am truly indebted to you both -your business deserves to go from strength to strength.

The food and service was absolutely incredible
First of all, thank you so so much for all of your hard work on Friday and Saturday, you and your team are wonderful and made our day absolutely seamless, especially on what felt like the hottest day of the year! The food and service was absolutely incredible, so many of our guests have said it was one of the best meals that have had and the beef was just melt in your mouth! The salmon was divine, and the puddings were perfect, especially the lemon posset! The cheesewas a HUGE hit in the evening.We really cannot thank you all enough, having worked at events before, myself and my family know the stress which goes into catering for an afternoon like ours (especially in a marquee, in the middle of a field, on a farm!) but you made it look absolutely effortless! We will be recommending you to everyone we know who needs a caterer! Again, thank you for making our big day extra special, we really do appreciate all of your hard work!

Especially when I was feeling so stressed the day before the wedding ( sorry about that! ). Your team were so friendly and helpful and I could have eaten 100 canapes if I had said yes to every time someone asked me! :) We felt extremely looked after and it was just such a huge weight off of our shoulders to know that you guys were so on top of it and that you had everything under control. We are so happy that we chose Dorset Delights to cater for our special day. We cannot thank you enough.

On behalf of the family, I would like to thankyou for your help with the wake. Your mum, Mary, was lovely - a fantastic combination of professionalism and kindness, and her attention to detail was excellent. The whole team couldn't be faulted. There was plenty of food - in fact the leftovers provided lunch for my husband and I as well as picnics for 10 family members on their travels home! We wouldn't hesitate to recommend you and can understand why you have such an excellent reputation.

We had so many compliments about the food
Just wanted to say thank you so much for doing such an amazing job for our afternoon tea on Saturday. We had so many compliments about the food, the sandwiches, cakes and scones were so delicious! You and your staff were so attentive and so kind to do all the set up and serving champagne with the canapes. The afternoon tea looked so beautiful on the stands and it just fit the setting so well. You've been so great through all the changes of date and different plans, we're so grateful for your flexibility and organisation!

Dorset Delights catered for my little girls christening yesterday and it was fab. Everything was ready when we got back from the church. The food was delicious. We had so many comments from our guests saying how good the food and service was. They went above and beyond and thanks to them my little girls day was a success.

The food was delicious and presented perfectly, and the service 5 star.
Dorset Delights catered for our Wedding 05-05-2018. It was the most wonderful day and Dorset Delights were great. The food was delicious and presented perfectly, and the service 5 star. We couldn’t have asked for more from them. They were so easy to work with and allowed us to tweak parts that we wanted too. The staff were friendly, helpful and everything went so smoothly. They also kindly cut up our wedding cake so that wasn’t wasted! Everybody commented on how nice the food was and that there was plenty of it! We would definitely recommend them for any event! Thank you so much Dorset Delights

A rare company that went above and beyond our expectations.
Dorset Delights arrived earlier than asked and helped to set up ready for our daughters christening. Once the service had finished the guests were looked after attentively. The food was delicious and the day ran seamlessly. You went above and beyond our expectations. It was a perfect day for our daughter and we couldn’t have done it without you. Thank you ladies.

Delicious afternoon tea selection with superb service.
The afternoon tea selection was delicious and your service so efficient. Everyone was asking who made the lovely selection, I couldn’t recommend you highly enough. Amazing.
Alice. Afternoon Tea, Sandford Orcas
A team of efficient, kind people who understand how to make an event run smoothly.
We were so pleased that so many friends and family came back for a cuppa, sandwich and a piece of cake - they all spoke so highly of Dorset Delights. I think the numbers we planned for worked perfectly with only such a small amount left over. I have to say I was very impressed with your efficiency, courtesy, deftness and kindness in setting up, clearing up and everything in between. You and your girls were absolutely fabulous and I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending you to anyone. You were perfect and just what we needed on what could have been such a sad day - you helped to make it all run smoothly.
Christine, Funeral Wake Catering, Sherborne

It is a privilege to be able to thank you for contributing
I wanted to write in order to thank you all for Friday. It was so comforting to know that everything was being taken care of, at a worrying time, and the whole event at home was simply wonderful. I wanted Friday to be a celebration of life and you all contributed to that. That is a special quality and it is a privilege to be able to thank you all for contributing. Everything was fantastic and she would have absolutely loved your lemon drizzle and scones.
