“Salt Wind Catering were a joy to work with - clear communication & excellent food. They catered for 100 people with different dietary requirements and were so professional. I would recommend to anyone.”
“I recently booked Salt Wind Catering for one of our corporate events and I can honestly say they exceeded expectations in every area. From the initial enquiry through to the event itself, the communication was excellent – clear, responsive, and professional, which made organising everything straightforward and stress-free. On the day, the team were punctual, well organised, and seamlessly fitted in with the flow of the event. The food was outstanding. High quality ingredients, cooked perfectly, and presented beautifully. It wasn’t just “good catering food” – it was genuinely impressive, and we received a constant stream of compliments from both our staff and guests throughout the event. What really stood out was the level of care and pride the team take in their work. They understand how important reliability and presentation are at corporate events, and they delivered both effortlessly. It made a big difference knowing we were in safe hands. I would confidently recommend Salt Wind Catering to any business or individual looking for exceptional food and a professional, dependable service. We’ll absolutely be using them again for future events. Owner, The Cleanno Group”

Carly·Wedding Buffet: delivered
“We ordered the Children's Buffet Party Food through Salt Wind Catering for our daughter's 4th birthday party, and my husband and I were very impressed and pleased with their product and service--as were several parents at the party, who asked who we used! The food arrived on time, beautifully presented, fresh, and plentiful, with a lovely variety of food which is perfect for young children--pleasing even the pickiest eaters. The menu was customised for us, down to the sandwich ratios. I tend to be a "stress head" so using Salt Wind instead of attempting to do all the food myself, greatly reduced my stress and it was better than what I could have prepared anyhow (among other things, there'd be no way I could manage the hot options). Overall it was great value and I highly recommend.”
