Testimonials

“Alastair and his team catered both of the Virgin Blue Charity Balls.  Each of them had around 3000 guests for a formal black tie sit down dinner.  At both events the food and service and pre-event management were exceptional.  To serve that quality of food to that volume of people out of a hangar with no kitchens is amazing – actually I still can’t figure out how they did it.  For the second ball we also respected earth hour – so they served 3000 main courses in black out conditions. Quite extraordinary.” Brett Godfrey, CEO, Virgin Blue

“We have enlisted the services of Bretts Wharf Event Catering for the past 6 years for a range of events and they have always exceeded our expectations! Our clients always comment on the professional nature of presentation and the ability of Bretts Wharf staff to deliver a premium event with real polish… From small to large events, often in very difficult sites, their attention to detail and continued belief in delivering exceptional service and quality catering sets them apart from the competition. It’s always a delight working with Alastair McLeod and the team from Bretts Wharf and they are always our first port of call when planning an event.”  Lindsay Bennett, Festival Director Mercedes-Benz Fashion Festival

“Over the past four years I have worked with Bretts Wharf on many high-profile events including the launch of David Jones Queens Plaza, the Mercedes-Benz Fashion Festival and the Alex Perry AEIOU Gala at City Hall. From the initial brief to the end product, Bretts work continually with the client to ensure that expectations are met.  Many of my clients expect the highest standards and every event has to reflect the prestigious nature of their brands.  Bretts Wharf assist me in achieving this.”  Sally Bell, SJB Events

“Bretts Wharf has catererd for us at both our own venue and at theirs many times over the past several years.  They’ve assisted us with everything from balls for more than 500 guests, to marquee events at the track or at Bretts Wharf for Melbourne Cup Day to launches in our showroom and private cooking demonstrations with Alastair.  Like us, they aim to always exceed their clients’ expectations – and they do.”  Christine Budd, Marketing Manager, Mercedes-Benz Brisbane

“Bretts has caterered for a range of events for us for about 5 years now – these have been everything from large dinners for several hundred, to our building opening to seminars to smaller boardroom dinners.  They’ve been held either at Bretts Wharf or off-site at a range of unique venues. When Bretts is on the job the event always runs seamlessly and the food and service impeccable.  I don’t want to be worried about the detail when I am hosting an event – I want to be able to concentrate on the guests, and I know that I will be able to do that with Bretts.  I couldn’t get them once as they were booked out, so I used another caterer – never again – it was a disaster! ”  Jon Mills, Managing Director, National Surgical

“Just wanted to send you a quick note to thank you for your assistance with the catering for our annual Editors’ Conference in Brisbane this week. The conference was a tremendous success and the catering proved to be extremely popular and well received. The food was exceptionally fresh and flavoursome and there was plenty of it!!  Thank you also to Tom and Amy for their assistance with setting up and serving the food.  They were very attentive, friendly and professional and I appreciated their support.  It was an absolute pleasure working with you Felix and I am most grateful to you for all of the hard work, time and effort you put in to ensuring our event was a success.”  Sarah Cullens, News Limited

“My compliments to your staff and chefs. The main waiter was so attentive, liaising with me all night. So I would say the service was excellent!  I would highly recommend your services to others. Thanks again.” Linda Seeto, Mary Ryans

"The food served at a catered event should be to the same standard as in the restaurant. It really doesn’t matter where the event is staged or how difficult the site – our track record proves we can ensure the quality of the food is excellent." - Alastair McLeod
