'Many thanks for the hot fork buffet last week, there were lots and lots of very positive comments on the quality of the food and also the excellent service provided by you and your staff. I tried both the vegetarian dishes and they were absolutely delightful. The salad was lovely too. Personally, I love home cooked food and I particularly loved the fact that there were proper vegetables in the green Thai veggie curry. Your white chocolate Malteaser cheesecake went down very well with staff fighting over the leftovers the next day! Thanks again, it was all superb and I would recommend you anytime.'

'I wanted to say a massive 'Thank you!' for the lunches you've provided me at my place of work for the past 10 years. I've really enjoyed the variety of lunches you've provided, my favourites are probably the Cous Cous with Sundried Tomatoes and Mozzarella closely followed by the wild rice with chargrilled veggies and pine nuts. The bit that I've enjoyed the most about the service you've provided is not having to ask myself the daily question 'What am I going to have for lunch today?' and knowing that whatever I've ordered will be enjoyable, tasty and high quality food. I can say without a shadow of a doubt that my colleagues and I will certainly miss the wonderful cakes you have baked for us. Lunch will never be the same again! Massive Thanks'

'We have used Out to Lunch twice for all staff lunches. Both times the 'ladies' have arrived on time and with a smile. The food has been excellent and the portions big enough to satisfy even the largest appetite!. We have always had to have a veggie option and a meat choice, and we also have one person who is lactose intolerant. All this has been catered for with absolutely no fuss...and the best thing is they leave everything neat and tidy'
GHX, Science Park Cambridge. Corporate event - February 2013

I would definitely use them again and recommend them without hesitation.'

'Just a brief but very significant "Thank you" for your efforts on Sunday. We had a fantastic day and all who attended the afternoon were very impressed with what you provided. So thanks again. The sandwiches were very good, fresh with very nice choice of fillings, the cake was stunning and the fruit salad received so many accolades I was tempted to claim responsibility myself. I was sure 3 bowls was overly generous. Wrong. Second helpings all round. Need I say more'
