Catering Company

Over the years we have been in the industry, we have developed an excellent sense of what our customers want from us as a catering company. In this guide, we will have a look at these factors and delve into the unique qualities that set us apart from many other catering options on the market.

With Angie’s, you receive a level of food quality, attention, and service that is extremely tough to find elsewhere. A part of our mission is to bring varied, delicious, and healthy options into the catering space, as in the past, this was certainly something that was lacking.

We seek to push the boundaries and set new standards for what individuals can expect from us as a catering company. So, join us as we dissect the Angie’s difference and attempt to quantify what makes our culinary services so highly sought after.

Growing With The Times

In recent years, it has become essential to adopt online services and technology to streamline the ordering and delivery process. At Angie’s, this has always been a focus of ours and we feel we have excelled in this area. Many other catering companies have struggled to adapt as quickly and are still operating in the same way that they were twenty years ago. However, this has an impact on your service and accessibility, as it can drive people away from your business.

Our website is remarkably simple to use, and our menus are easy to navigate. This helps our customers make their choices quickly and in a stress-free manner, which affords them more time to focus on other elements of their event or function. An entire order can be placed, scheduled for delivery, and confirmed in a matter of minutes – it truly does not get any more convenient. When you are searching for the ideal catering company for your purposes, it certainly helps to examine how well they have managed to grow with the times and the emphasis they have placed on innovation and technology.

Culinary Background And Expertise

Of course, perhaps the most crucial factor to look out for is the culinary ability of the catering company in question. We are sure that you want excellent quality food that has been put together with love and attention. At the end of the day, this will impress you and your guests more than anything else. Luckily, we have no shortage of expertise and experience in the culinary space, and this starts from the top and seeps down through our entire staff.

Our namesake and founder, Angie Steele, has a formidable cooking background and has worked for some of the best chefs in the world from a young age – including the likes of Gordon Ramsey and Jason Atherton, while simultaneously cooking privately for an impressive range of A-list celebrities. She has been featured on shows such as The ‘F’ Word, Kitchen Knightmares, and Iron Chef, to name a few. Basically, few people in the world are more qualified to curate a top-notch catering menu, and that is exactly what she has done.

Under her tutelage, the rest of our staff has flourished and have had the invaluable opportunity to learn directly from her. Her passion and attention to detail have become a staple at Angie’s, and every one of our employees has developed a love for the culinary arts. Catering companies often have a more fast-food approach to quality, however, this does not and should not be the case. We do not doubt that when the designated delivery time comes around, your guests will be absolutely blown away by not only the taste of the food itself, but the plating and aesthetics, and the quality of ingredients!

Consistently Fantastic Service

Beyond the delicious food, a huge part of any successful catering company is customer service. Ultimately, everyone would prefer to deal with businesses that place their clients first and go above and beyond to exceed expectations. At Angie’s, we have a friendly and competent team that coordinates orders seamlessly, answers questions and queries from customers, and works tirelessly to ensure exceptional service.

When considering your options for the ideal catering service that aligns with your preferences and expectations, the attentiveness and professionalism of the staff is certainly a vital factor. At the end of the day, this is beneficial for both the establishment and, of course, the client. This is the case because customers who receive the ultimate service satisfaction are considerably more likely to place their trust in the catering service again.

Menu Variety And Dietary Requirements

It is essential that a catering company leaves no stone unturned when it comes to the variety of their set menus and platters. By this, we mean placing a lot of emphasis on variety and options, as it is always beneficial to have more choices when deciding on your order. At the same time, the menu should be curated well enough that customers are not overwhelmed by the number of options – it is all about finding a happy medium. As we touched on earlier, most of our menu was created by Angie herself, and each platter and set menu has been painstakingly put together to blend many taste profiles, ingredients, and styles.

In the past, there was substantially less effort placed into accommodating dietary requirements and preferences. This may be because it is challenging to think outside the box and some chefs are not overly familiar with plant-based alternatives, which is why many catering companies stick to what they already know. However, it says a lot about the skill and culinary knowledge of a catering company to be able to adapt to different themes, dietary restrictions, and preferences. At Angie’s, we are proud to offer a wide selection of vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free, and vegetarian dishes to meet the requirements of any customer.

Whether you are hosting a formal event, an intimate get-together, or a business function, it is incredibly important to consider your guests’ dietary needs and requirements. This way, no one goes hungry or feels left out, and the best part of it all is that all our dishes are equally delectable.

Value For Money And Transparent Pricing

When thinking about catering options, a large factor is how clearly the business structures its pricing. Ultimately, nobody enjoys the process of going through an entire menu and carefully selecting options, only to be informed at the end that the cost is completely outside of your budget. It is for this reason that we transparently price each and every one of our set menus and platters. This allows our customers to quickly figure out if our prices align with their allocated catering budget. Besides a small delivery fee, there are no further charges and/or hidden costs.

When it comes to catering, value for money is crucial. When you choose us, you can be assured that you will get exactly what you paid for and then some. Our platters are large, and the serving size is clearly placed next to each item on our menu. If the suggestion says that it serves 10 – 12 people, you can be confident that it is realistic. The last thing we want is for anyone to leave your event hungry, or feeling like they were not able to try as many dishes as they wanted.

Presentation And Aesthetic Value

One of the best things about Angie’s catering is that our platters look just as amazing as they taste! A lot of energy goes into the composition of our dishes and menu items, as we know that at many events or functions, the food arrangement is one of the main attractions. With this in mind, we have made sure that our platters are eye-catching – this no doubt adds to the overall dining experience.

If you want to ensure that your guests remember the occasion for a long time to come, it pays to find a catering company that excels in the art of culinary presentation, as we do. However, you don’t need to take our word for it, we encourage you to go and have a look at some of our menu options to get a sense of their visual appeal yourself.

A Brief Look At A Few Catering Options We Provide

Now that we have covered some of the most crucial aspects of finding a top-notch catering company, allow us to walk you through some of our menu options and what you can expect from them.

Salad Platters

No food table is complete without the addition of a fresh, flavourful, and beautiful selection of salad platters. As you can imagine, our salad platters are some of the most inclusive dishes we create, and they can be enjoyed by almost everyone, regardless of dietary restrictions or preferences. Beyond this, these platters are packed with fresh, local produce and healthy ingredients. This means your guests will not only receive a delicious helping of salad, but they will also get all the healthy goodness that comes with high-quality ingredients.

One fantastic choice to look out for is the Aubergine with Tahini Dressing, which will undoubtedly blow your guests away with the unique combination of Middle-Eastern flavours – made using roasted aubergine wedges with a healthy drizzling of orange, tahini, and yoghurt dressing. To top it all off, we add flat leaf parsley, spring onions, and pomegranate seeds to bring plenty of fruity sweetness into the equation. This offering is also vegetarian and gluten-free, which makes it ideal for guests who have certain dietary preferences.

Meat And Fish Platters

Whatever your meat and seafood preferences, we surely have the perfect platter for you and your guests. One of our recommendations is the Rump of Beef with Chimichurri, which is served with tomato and red pepper Chimichurri sauce, topped with parsley and a tasty red wine vinegar dressing. The distinct flavours complement each other brilliantly, and the combination of herbs and spices results in a taste explosion. It is this sort of dish that should ensure that your event is spoken about for a long time to come.
