Utterly mouthwatering 🤩

From our first interaction with Kearney’s, we were confident they’d be able to deliver the best food & WOW, they did just that!

The attention to detail in the presentation, the flavour, the service & professionalism, everything was just above & beyond what we could’ve wished for. We’ve had a number of comments from our guests about how amazing the food was, even from those guests who are usually a bit fussy!

From the incredible canapés, dinner & evening food, everything was phenomenal!!

Absolutely Amazing

The granary only recently changed to Kearney's Catering and we were the first or one of the first wedding to be held with the caterers and I’m so pleased we were. They were absolutely fantastic and the food was amazing, all our guests keep telling us 6 months down the line. They were so friendly to deal with and was happy to accommodate our original choice of food (however we did choose their canapés as they were better. Nothing was too much trouble to even helping with dietary needs.

Seamless Process

Planning the catering was the least stressful of tasks primarily because of the level of care Gary gave to us. Options were explained clearly with alternative solutions for people with special dietary requirements and the company seemed to know what to do regarding allergies. This really eased the pressure and made choosing the food a fun and enjoyable experience. On the day the food was excellent with just right portion sizes and delightful presentation. We were blessed to have Gary help us and the process was seamless.

Our Review of Kearney's Catering

Kearney's Catering provided exceptional service for our wedding at the Granary, Fawsley on 10/08. From the initial call with Gary to discuss menu options to the incredible food on the day, everything was flawless. We had a BBQ-style menu with two desserts, and all our guests, including the photographers, had high praise. The evening pulled pork rolls were a hit too. The staff were professional and made everything easy. I highly recommend Kearney's Catering.

Amazing, highly recommend

From start to finish Garry and his team at Kearney’s Catering were an absolute dream to work with. We got married in September 2024 and had a marquee wedding at my family home. Considering there was no equipment on site they organised everything amazingly with no stress on our side. The organisation was top notch and the service and kindness of the team was next level. On our wedding day we all felt truly relaxed even though we were hosting as we knew everything was in hand. The food was delicious and they were very receptive to adapting the menu and catered for dietary requirements brilliantly. So many people commented on how amazing the team and their organisation was and how delicious the food was. They also completely bought our vision to life for tables, the bar, and other areas of the day. Would highly recommend Kearney’s catering to anyone.

Amazing caterers, would choose them again for our wedding!

From the beginning, it felt like we were in a safe set of hands with the Kearney's team! The team's professionalism, organisation, experience and attention to detail was obvious from day 1. Their food was delicious, high quality and beautiful (the guests all raved about the food) - great selection and happy to customise/create dishes. Our wedding day was seamless, the team was super organised and friendly with our guests. The team really cared about all the elements and details of our day the way we did which made them a joy to work with. They included lots of thoughtful additions on the day of too, like serving us Caesar cocktails (my fav drink) as a surprise in between courses. Would choose them for our wedding again!

Impeccable food & service

We couldn’t recommend Kearneys highly enough and are so pleased that we chose them as caterers for our wedding day.

Garry and his team were incredibly helpful throughout the planning process, from the initial choices on meal and bar service, through the tasting (a lovely experience - recommend taking your wedding wine!), site visit and final tweaks to service timings in the run up. Whenever we had questions Garry was on hand by phone or email and it was a huge help to have the benefit of his experience as we planned.

On the day itself the food and service was impeccable. We had so many compliments from our guests, many of whom said it was restaurant standard and the best they’d ever had from a pop up kitchen. We opted to provide our own drinks and have the Kearney’s team run the bar, which also went down a storm and was very adaptable to our needs - we had a range of options including a customised wedding cocktail and beer keg. With a separate team to serve our drinks and food, both were faultless and our guests were very well looked after.

Absolutely fantastic catering company!

Where to start… Kearney’s Catering are absolutely fantastic. They recently catered for our wedding, in which a lot of our guests had dietary requirements - and they were brilliant at accommodating all of them! From start to finish, Garry was very professional and friendly; he asked us plenty of questions to help us determine what we wanted and nothing was ever ‘too much’ for them or too difficult.

The food itself was absolutely delicious. So many of our guests commented on how incredible the dishes were. The presentation was fab and even our ‘fussy eaters’ finished everything!

The team were very respectful on our wedding day and came to ask us between each course if we were ready for our next one as we were mingling with guests. We couldn’t be more pleased with Kearney’s, and we just wanted to say a huge thank you for providing us with our dream menu for our wedding day!

Great professional service and wonderful food

We used Kearneys to cater a wedding party held in our garden in July 2024. The service we recieved (emails and meetings) during planning, in the run-up and on the day was superb. We had a small number of guests (22) but Kearneys gave it their full attention and were very good at communicating prior to, and on the day.
The food was fabulous. We had canapes, mains and salads followed by puddings, with several dietary requirements fully catered for. Everything was delivered at the designated time, laid out beautifully in the marquee and fully labelled. The quality of the food (and quantity) was exceptional. Many of the guests commented on how wonderful it all was. I would highly recommend them - a gem of a local business in Banbury. Five stars! 10 out of 10.

Outstanding in every way!

We had very unique requirements for our large wedding and Garry & David understood immediately what we were trying to achieve and they came up with the perfect package. The combination of flavours and presentation of food was outstanding, communication throughout was excellent, their team on the day were just brilliant and what tops it all off is they are just really guys who are incredibly passionate for what they do and deserve to win this award. Would 1000% recommend them!
