Thank you for your efforts in thoroughly unpleasant circumstances on Saturday. The food was lovely and plentiful. All of the response about the food were positive. It helped to have you there to make the best of the horrible weather.

....the pig on the spit was a HUGE success. I can not thank you guys enough for the amazing service, quality of food, professionalism and attention to detail. It was so stess free because everything was taken care of, even the clean up. Our chef was amazing, he was friendly and very flexible with the timing etc. Honestly, it was the best decision to have you guys service my party. I will highly recommend you to others and hopefully we can host another event wher we can do a Barbiehire....

Thanks for the receipt and a big thank you to Todor our chef, he certainly made the evening easy for us! He is a real gentleman with a lovely nature. He was like a ninja lol- he came, unpacked, prepared, cooked, packed up - without me needing to do anything. The pork was tender and the salads were really tasty and refreshing. A thank you also to Franchesca in the office for kindly answering all my queries and to Geofrey for the discount and complimentary soft drinks - it was all very much appreciated! I don’t ever publicly place reviews so please accept our thanks here, however I will be verbally recommending your company to anyone I come across who is needing catering.

Just to let you know, that I wanted to leave a review on your google page, however, it requires me to sign into a google account, and I don’t have one. Also, I’m not on Facebook either. Sorry about that, but let me tell you the guests were very impressed with the catering and I have given them your details. I really hope you get business from it. Sometimes word of mouth is just as good as social media.

I would like to thank you for the fantastic catering service received yesterday 16 September, 2018.

The Chef Todo, ( Not sure if I've spelt it correctly), was a lovely man, and the food was brilliant.

Thank you so much and I'll definitely be using your services again and the guests were also very impressed.

I would like to take the opportunity to thank your team for their work at our event on Tuesday. It was a really hot day and cooking a BBQ would have been really tough, however your team cooked and served with smiles on their faces and made it such and enjoyable event for our Members and our staff. They went above and beyond and I want to take the opportunity to thank them. Merry Christmas and Happy new year.

I am writing to inform the management of the fabulous service that we received at our recent function. We were impressed from the beginning when Phillip talked to me about our options and made the choice to choose Barbehire a very easy one. Also uncomplicating a process that I was trying to make slightly complicated. Any issues I had prior to the Day were sorted out quickly and professionally by Amber who filled me with confidence.

Michael (our Chef) called prior to the function and was able to answer any further questions I had. On the day both Michael and Allen arrived at the time we had organised and were absolutely amazing. They fitted in perfectly with the relaxed atmosphere of our function and many of the guests commented on how friendly they were. 

The meat was cooked to perfection and I had guests comment both on the day and after that the meat was delicious. 

Thank you to the team for helping us share our special day. I would recommend Barbehire to any family or friends that were needing a caterer for a function.

Just wanted to say thank you for the golf day catering. The meat was delicious and Bill with Nikita did great job with cooking and service. Thank you and will be in touch for next big event

It was a pleasure to have Barbehire Cater our Friday night pre-wedding dinner in Kangaroo Valley, April 21, 2017. Here is my feedback below. Please reply to this email and  rate and/or comment beside the following questions: (1 – unsatisfactory, 2 – needs improvement, 3 – satisfactory, 4 – very good,  5 - excellent) 1.    How was your experience with the office?        Rating:       5        Comments:          The office staff were efficient and timely in their response to queries. 2.    How did the chef/s and assistants perform his/her duties?        Rating:       5        Comments:          The chef served the lamb on time, with selection of meat requested by guests.  The chef was congenial, easy going and delightful to deal with. 3.   Was the food cooked properly, enough amount and served on time?        Rating:       5        Comments:          The lamb was prepared perfectly, in sufficient quantity and on time.  We catered for 50 guests but only had 43 in attendance.  It might be advisable to provide a slightly greater quantity of food. 4.    Was the salads, bread rolls, pumpkin, onions and condiment(where applicable to your particular event) satisfactory to your expectation?        Rating:       4        Comments:          White bread rolls were not popular with our group.  Perhaps offer a healthier alternative at time of booking.  Increase quantity of salads similar to the meat comment above.         5.     Any other comments/reactions/observation/suggestion            It was very helpful to have Barbehire take away the rubbish as organised.  Clean up was orderly and quick.  Perhaps this could be a service offered at the time of booking.  The office should suggest bringing containers for left over food, if the guests desire. 6.        How did you find out about Barbehire?

You catered the day after our wedding a few weeks ago in the hunter valley.

 Just wanted to say how amazing of a job you did, the food, the service and everything was seriously awesome! Everyone commented on how amazing the food was etc. could not have been happier with the service you provided!!!!!!!

 I would like to leave a review for you somewhere just to give you the applauds you deserve, how would I do this?

 Once again thank you for making our day so amazing!!!!!!!!!!

 Francesca  was  always  very  helpful  and  patient  in  explaining  the  options  when  I  was  organising  the  catering  package  with  her.    

 Todor  knows  his  'trade'  very  well.  He  was  good  to  work  with.  He  was  a  very  respectful  chef  and  ensure  everything  was  well  organised,  well  presented  and  there  was  no  mess  or  rubbish  to  be  seen.    

 The  food  was  done  just  right  and  it  was  absolutely  delicious  as  Todor  promised!  Our  guests  enjoyed  the  meat  very  much.  This  makes  us  very  happy  as  hosts.    

 Overall  the  food  provided  in  this  group  was  very  nice.  The  only  comment  I  have  is  the  rice  salad  with  Tandoori  chicken  which  could  be  better.  This  is  due  to  the  rice  being  refrigerated  previously,  hence  became  harden.  Personally,  I  could  not  eat  it  when  it  was  served.  I  later  microwaved  it  and  it  was  very  tasty,  when  the  rice  was  heated  through  and  softened.  Anyway,  this  was  my  experience,  food  for  thought  for  you  to  see  how  you  can  improve  this  dish  as  it  is  actually  a  very  tasty  salad  (when  the  rice  is  soft). 

 We  are  very  happy  with  our  recent  experience  with  Barbehire  and  would  consider  using  your  service  again  in  the  future.  We  would  also  ask  for  Todor  again  for  he  has  done  a  fine  job  at  our  site.

Thank you to " Barbehire for catering for a post-wedding function in Mittagong for us for 100 people. We couldn't have been happier with the perfectly cooked whole pig on a spit, delicious beef and tasty salads and vegetables. Their service and commitment to providing a reasonably priced feast was wonderful. "

A few word of thanks for the successful BBQ held yesterday at the Sydney Olympic Park catered by BarbeHire. The team of Mark & Co. were superb, they were efficient, friendly and hard working – everyone remarked how well runned the catering team performed – Mark & Co worked under very hot conditions but were marvellous. Congratulations on running a great company – and rest assured there will be a return booking. Pixie, the face painter and Santa were also great – working under very hot conditions but enjoyed by all the children. Thank you again – you’ve made my job so much easier.

A quick note to let you know that Barbehire are, without a doubt, the most efficient, courteous and punctual organisation I have ever had the pleasure of dealing with.    Phillip, I wish to express my sincere thanks for what was a fabulous day made all the better by the helpful nature of Matt, Steve and Will who looked after us on our very hectic day.   The lads were at the Homebush Bay site well in advance, and all our staff and their kids were extremely well fed and looked after. Nothing was a problem for the Barbehire staff.   I would also like to state that your caring and consoling nature following the debacle with “that other mob” was truly a light at the end of a very dark tunnel. I’m sure the day would have been a disaster without Barbehire. ..   … Once again, a job well done and I’m sure we’ll be in touch for future functions.”

I would just like to say thank you to you and your staff for a fantastic job you did for the Yr 3 Mosman Prep father/son camp. Since the boys have been home this afternoon I have received about 10 phone calls from fathers saying how fantastic the food was. The food has been described as “awesome”, “unbelievably good”, “fantastic”, “delicious” and compliments were also given to your two staff. One father I spoke to has your business card and said that he would definitely be spreading the good word and would be using your services when the need arises. I would personally like to thank you for making my difficult job so much easier. Your suggestions, easy going, nothing is a problem attitude, was a delight. I will be spreading the good word about your business and I hope you get some business from it. Please pass on our thanks to your staff for the wonderful job they did in not the easiest setting. It was a pleasure doing business with you Phillip

....once again I’d like to say “Thank you”, to you, Phillip & your staff.   It was a most enjoyable day & we’ve had such positive feedback, from our staff & their families regarding the day, in its entirety. Without Barbehire, the day would not have been possible.   I would not hesitate to recommend Barbehire to anyone which may be looking for this kind of event. Once Again Thank you & I look forward to working with your company in the near future

Just wanted to pass on a huge thanks for Saturday – it was such a fantastic day thanks to all your staff’s efforts. Everything went to plan and I didn’t have to worry about a thing! Joel and staff were very friendly and nothing was too much trouble. We especially loved Santa. He was brilliant!!! I believe he has done a few parties of ours and everyone commented about how wonderful he was, so please pass on my thanks to him!! Thanks again Amber. You have been wonderful with all our conversations and so helpful. Ill be honest and say that I haven’t come across such a professional, organised company for quite some time. I am very impressed and wont hesitate to use and recommend your company in the future

Paul

21 October 2013


I just wanted to let you know how happy Paul and I were with the service we received from Barbehire for our engagement party on Saturday.

From my very first contact with you, you were very helpful, friendly and professional and made the process very easy for me. Our chef for the evening Michael was absolutely amazing and can I please request that you ensure all the management team over at Barbehire are made aware of how happy we are with everything he did for us. He worked extremely hard, and his only goal that night was to ensure that Paul and I were very happy and that everything was perfect.

He literally never stopped from early afternoon until very late into the night, the food was amazing and there was sooooo much of it! He just did a fabulous job, and he was a hit with all of our guests. …

The wine that you picked for us for the bar was delicious and the lady who served the drinks was great too. …

Even the guy who delivered and picked up all the gear was great – professional and friendly. I would have no hesitation in recommending you guys for any events, everything you did and provided was of the highest quality and Paul and I both agreed that the value for money we received was unbelievable especially given the amount of man hours and effort that was put in by you and your staff for us.

Should you ever need it I would be more than happy for you to provide my contact details to anyone who would like a reference prior to booking your services.

Thanks once again for helping to make our engagement such a special event

Mandy

13 May 2012


Just wanted to let you know how great our party was, due to the fantastic food & the terrific effort of Joel & Ashley.

Joel set up the spit and cooked the meat to perfection. Ashley was a fantastic assistant, preparing serving and cleaning up. Nothing was too much trouble for either of them.

Our friends all commented on how great the food was and many went back for 2nds, even the younger Gen Y girls who usually don’t eat much at all! It was wonderful not to having to worry about cooking and preparing the food myself, setting up and more importantly washing & cleaning up. We shall certainly use your company again when we next have a function and will certainly recommend you to our friends. Hopefully some of our friends who were present on the night will be interested in using your company as well. So once again a big thank you to Joel, Ashley and yourself.

Tim and I just wanted to say thanks for organising my 30th. It was a great night and I had ample time to catch up with my friends rather than having to organise anything during the evening. I was not sure how it was all going to work but I just didn’t have to worry about it at all. The chef Mark was great and everyone was happy with the food. It was a very easy night made possible by Barbehire. Good delivery and pick up of chairs and tables and we would not have known the chef was here except for the fantastic smell of the spit!! We would not hesitate to use your company again and we have recommended Barbehire highly to all of our friends and family.”

Just a note to say THANKYOU!!! We had a great night on Saturday and a lot of that was due to the professional service we received from your office and the chef “Brendan” on the night. All of our guests were blown away by the quality of the food and service Brendan provided. As were we, it made our night easy and one we will remember. It was a great way to celebrate our engagement and my partners birthday. We had nothing to worry about and everything went so well.”
