Catering for 90th Birthday:
“Good morning Anita. Many thanks for the superb food which you provided for us on Saturday at Alison’s home. We had a lovely time, and everyone was most complementary about the food. I was particularly grateful to you as it released Alison to enjoy being host rather than caterer. I have had a marvellous 90th birthday.” Shirley (June 2024)

“Anita and her team catered for my mum’s 80th birthday lunch today. The food was beautifully cooked and presented and the staff were lovely. Everyone said how good a meal it was. The company were a pleasure to deal with and were very helpful right through from the initial inquiry to the final details. Highly recommended.” Helen Henry (2019)
“Thank you to you and your team for the great food and service that we had on Saturday. From the start when you said “it’s time to relax; we are here, and you’re going to have a good evening”, we knew we were in good hands. The set up, the drinks service, the wonderful food and delicious desserts and of course the team! You did us proud and then did an amazingly tidy up and departure. Amazing. Everyone has commented on the food and the team! You went down well!” Ray (2019)
“Just a quick note to say thank you so much for your fabulous food!! Had so many comments about it…and a particular gluten free guest couldn’t stop telling me how amazing her GF spread was. I also really appreciate you helping me out with my last minute coffee cup panic!! You must let me know if I owe you anything else for the coffee cups or the extra dietary bits. I don’t have the need for professional catering very often, but we’ll definitely be coming back to you if the need arises again.
Many thanks once again.” Helen & Hannah (2019)
“We would like to thank you for your wonderful catering for our funeral wake, it meant that it left us as a family completely free to chat to friends and family. It took all the stress, worry and the washing up away from us, so thank you so much.” Hazel, David, Beth, Katie & Tom (2019)
“Thank you very much for the catering at our Golden Wedding celebration in Hitchin, which went perfectly due to your company Clockhouse Catering. The staff were all very discrete and quietly efficient. The food was excellent and catered to everyone’s taste. The whole experience was a delight and made the whole experience totally relaxing. Everyone commented about the presentation of the food and we must thank once again for your excellence.We would happily recommend your company to everyone.” Michael & Sandy, Hitchin (2018)

“Thank you for your outstanding service provided to my family for our parents 50th Wedding anniversary. We were very pleased with your personal service and professional approach to this important family evening. You food was not only delicious, it was well presented and the exact right amount too. Everybody was happy and some of them took away your details for their own future events. We have had numerous family events over the years and have never consider caterers before but I wouldn’t hesitate to use or recommend your company to others for future occasions.” Nick, St Ippolyts (2016)
“Thank you so much to you and your team for helping to make Carla’s 18th party such a success. The food was fantastic and we received many complimentary comments from the guests. The ladies who ‘ran the show’ were delightful – efficient, friendly and extremely good at what they do. Please also pass on my thanks to them. From a customers perspective, I was delighted by the whole experience. From the initial meeting, where you quickly grasped the differing requirements (from party girl and parent) yet suggested a menu suitable to both. The inevitable changes to numbers that was facilitated without issue. The food, service and clear-up which ran with military precision. Thank you again. Linda, Hitchin (2016)
On behalf of the Partners and Staff of Wagstaffs can I take this opportunity to thank you and the girls for providing the food and service for our annual bash. As usual there were many compliments flying around and I am thrilled that you were able to get a further booking with Debenhams. As I recall you saying last year ‘word of mouth recommendations’ are the best advertising. We look forward to seeing you next year.” Alison, Stevenage (2017)
“Thank you so much for the lovely food you provided at our party. We gave you a challenge and you certainly rose to it. Please pass on our thanks to your staff for their support and professionalism.” Pam & Colin, Ickleford (2015)
“We couldn’t have been more delighted in how Alex and Jennifer’s wedding day went! Thank you so much for your part in this. The wedding breakfast picnic was excellent – we really appreciate the efforts you went to ensure everything was top quality…top faves (though everything was delicious) were the prize-winning Pork Pie with the added A & J topping, the made-by-you mackerel pate, eton mess and Prosecco jellies….FABULOUS. And then you followed all this up with an evening bbq. Thanks too to your ‘front-of-house’ Sarah and the rest of your team, they were lovely to deal with and very helpful and professional. All in all a HUGE SUCCESS….Thank you! Karen, Hexton (2015)
“I’m going to have to give Clockhouse 11 out of 10! Not only superb food and drink and flawless operation on the day, but we successfully reclaimed the surplus quantities, got them into our fridge at home for another couple of hours then delivered them to rehearsal where 130 hungry singers set upon them with surprised relish! More great comments on the quality all round. It would have been easy for you to be unhelpful about this but you took the extra trouble to help us out. I can’t tell you how pleased I was to see that you were already at the church before we got there. Success is usually all in the planning and preparation and there is no such thing as setting off too early. Geoffrey, Potters Bar (2015)
“We would like to extend our thanks to all at Clockhouse Catering for their service and high quality food provided at our Grand Opening Trade Event in January 2015. Our event was to celebrate our successful move into our new premises and was attended by 22 suppliers, Area Managers, National Account Managers, staff and customers, all of which enjoyed the “very special food” on offer. The service was professional and efficient from start to finish. They were able to offer advice on food choice and were able to work to the constraints placed on them by the limitation of our surroundings, we are a warehouse and the event was held amongst our racking. We were so impressed with the smoothness of the day and have since booked them again for our next event to be held in June this year. So once again thank you, it was a pleasure doing business and we would not hesitate to recommend Clockhouse Catering to anybody.” Harry, Brewers, Milton Keynes (2015)
