Fully catered weekend

I honestly cannot recommend Tim and his team more, they catered for a weekend house party of 25 people for my 50th birthday. They were so professional, particularly given the slightly awkward venue. The food was absolutely wonderful, communication before the event was seamless, and they were more than happy to cater for various dietary requirements. We had a cold fork buffet, an afternoon tea and a formal dinner with canapés, all fantastic, and do not worry about under-catering, the portions were very generous!

Service was wonderful, just an absolutely fantastic company. All my guests were full of praise and it really made the weekend special. I've worked with caterers for my events before and Citreus are by far the best company I've used.

Highly recommended!

Thanks Tim, Craig & team.

Excellent hog roast

We used Citreus catering for my husband's 70th party and they were excellent.
We had a wonderful hog roast with lovely salads and Tim and Tyler were professional, efficient and effective throughout. They arrived on time and served the food when asked. They advised re best layout and set up for 80 guests in our smallish London garden. I would not hesitate to recommend them

Top notch food and attentive service!

Tim and Craig went above and beyond our expectations. We had a tasting as part of our booking and it was fab to taste the food and make any changes we wanted before the big day. Our guests were super pleased with the food which was amazing. We had brilliant vegetarian options and Craig was able to cater to our lactose and milk allergy guests who were amazed with their options! Tim made sure to meet them before sitting down for the meal and make sure everything was good with them.

Tim also acted as toast master, directing guests to drinks and to pray silent for the speeches. He was brilliant and our guests loved him.

They also left the kitchen spotless which was greatly appreciated when it came to us clearing up the rest of the hall!

Thank you ever so much Tim and Craig, we strongly recommend your services!

More than just caterers!!

Can't understate how much we loved working with Citreus. We had a vision for a mainly vegetarian wedding, with some of our favourite restaurant dishes, including ones lots might not have been familiar with, e.g. Korean Bokkeumbap, as well as Mediterranean and Middle Eastern style dishes, and the team put their everything into executing it all brilliantly, making recommendations, serving it beautifully (not easy to do with some dishes - fried eggs for 100 people!) and going out of their way to make the whole thing work. They also respected our budget and were super flexible when we needed to make changes! Beyond just delivering excellent food and service, it was so refreshing to have suppliers who felt like they could be part of the family! All of our relatives loved them, they were so fun and welcoming and friendly and it made such a difference to the atmosphere. Hope to have another occasion to celebrate with them and can't recommend them enough!

10/10 - would book you again tomorrow!

Citerus were a dream to work with from start to finish. They catered for x138 people at our wedding and x40 people at a BBQ the following day. Nothing was a stress, the food was unreal and the whole team act in a calm but professional way. We've been inundated with compliments about the food and service which wasn't easy to manage when the wedding timings slipped and they were managing all of this food in a small tent at the back of the marquee! Thank you again - we're already thinking of the next event to get you involved!

Citreus Catering

Charmaine and Tibor went above and beyond their duties. They helped me with my cheese boards and pizza boxes which was not even their responsibility. Charmaine checked if I had eaten and wouldn’t leave my side until I got food. They were polite and all round amazing. The food was full of flavour, hot and the most gorgeous meat I have ever eaten. Every single person commented on how amazing the food was. Couldn’t recommend Citreus anymore. Excellent food and amazing service

Exquisite Fine Dining

This is the second year I have trusted Craig and his team with planning and catering for Christmas Dinner but also my wifes 40th birthday party where an 8 course tasting menu was delivered. The communication beforehand is impeccable and everything is planned to your individual needs.
The events themselves then run smoothly with fantastic, first class service and extremely tasty and high quality food cooked to perfection. Thank you too Tibor. You are a highly skilled chef. I would recommend Citreus Catering to everyone.

Unilever Corporate Event

The service, food and presentation was all of high quality. Every team member was singing their praises and thrilled with the delicious food. They made sure to accommodate us with any requests we made, they were super flexible with the menu and dietary requirements and also put forward additional food options/ decorations to make our event even better. I would definitely recommend this company, they were easy and a pleasure to work with.

Absolutely exceptional

We hired Citreus for our wedding and we’re still blown away by how good they are. Craig and Tim are special humans! They made sure every part of our day went smoothly. The food was phenomenal. We had a full vegan menu and considering this was their first vegan wedding to cater for, it was out of this world. All of their catering staff were friendly, polite and professional. I will be using them again!

60th Birthday Dinner for 16

AMAZING! FABULOUS! FANTASTIC!
Overall an absolutely fabulous evening starting with Canapies & champagne followed by a 3 course dinner.
Not enough words to express how wonderful the evening was. I knew what I wanted for my 60th Birthday and Craig, Tim & the team smashed it right out the park.
The whole service from start to finish was exemplary.
The compliments on the food & service from everyone was second to none, with both vegan & vegetarian being catered for aswell, with everyone saying how lovely it was to see the chef Tim at every course & have him explain the menu, & not have a faceless chef. Lots of compliments for Gaynor too, especially when she was serving the canapies, from those that never try something out the norm. Not forgetting Tyler, we may not have seen much of him front of house, but still appreciate the work he did.
They left everywhere spotless before leaving too
Thankyou doesn't seem enough to express everything however that is all I have so Thank you.
