We had Valentines in for my mums 60th suprise birthday party and they were brilliant. Nikki was our waitress and was amazing at helping me get organised and keeping calm as it was very overwhelming getting everything ready before my Mums entrance, she kept everything running smoothly through the night even though she was on her own and was serving the canapes as well as the drinks to everyone and also helping in the kitchen. David's food was sublime and he was also a very welcome calm and grounded energy to keep everything running perfectly. Everyone commented on how lovely the food and service

Knowing Olivia Carlos has been a blessing to Me, my family and friends, there's no disputing the fact that she is the best account manager ever. I just made another withdrawal few moments ago, it was so great this is really an opportunity knowing you wow friends I can't be so selfish enough to enjoy this blessing alone you can always contact her directly so she can help you too. She is ready to show you how you can trade and make profit, I'm a living testimony I invested $1000 and I got my profit today after 5 days trade I made a withdrawal of $13,600 as my profit in return wow I'm so happy believe

We cannot thank Valentine cuisine enough, for how amazing they were on our wedding on Saturday 2nd October at The Manor of Groves. A massive THANK YOU to Tony for cooking up an amazing 3 course meal and the most delightful canapés. Our guests are still talking about the food 4 days on, which is a testament to how amazing it all was. Thank you to all the staff for being so attentive and helpful throughout the whole day.
We would like to give a HUGE thank you and shoutout to the wonderful front of house Adrian! Thank you for always being one phone call away, and for making me feel calm throughout

Valentine’s catered for our daughter's wedding in September 2021.
They laid on a 3 course meal in a large Marque on our farmhouse lawn.
They were very well organised cooking in the service tent using calor gas cookers and a generator. The food was delicious, hot and plentiful.
All our guests commented on how great the food and service was.
Star of the show was Adrian.
He came to meet us well ahead to listen to what we wanted and check out the site.On the day he was very much in control and was a big asset "front of house" right until the very end.

We hired Valentine to cater our wedding and their fantastic team served such amazing food from Canapes to Butty service. Tony and his team were so wonderfully accommodating for the whole day and the food was incredible. We had so many lovely compliments from our guests and they made a few on-the-day variations to keep everyone happy which we really appreciated! The food was amazing and the staff were so lovely- the food just seemed to appear as if by magic right when we wanted it!

Many thanks to the team at Valentine Cuisine for making our Golden Wedding party a relaxed and happy experience. Wonderful food and friendly service. Tony, Theresa, Adrian and all your gang you really excel. Wish there were 6 stars above! Nothing was too much trouble even in the heat wave. Gavin and Maureen Cooper.

Earlier this month, Valentines provided all day food for our wedding and it was fantastic. Our Guests are still talking about the especially delicious canapés.
Not only was the food fantastic, we are also so grateful to all the staff who worked all day to make sure our guests always had a drink to hand especially as it was a very hot day.
Adrian, we are so grateful for your organisation and being chief of front of house & toastmaster. You made us feel so ease and the day went so smoothly because of all of your attention to detail on the day.
We would strongly recommend Valentines for Wedding

We have just had a sunday roast from here . It is the first time i have used this company and WOW .
The food quality was amazing , the staff are super friendly and the price is worth every penny .
The process was quick and easy .
Ordered slightly late and they still managed to fit us in. The quality of the beef was amazing . I would highly recommend the roast to anyone , better than restaurant quality . Will 100% use over and over again.
