Our Wonderful Customers
“I have used Kavanagh’s Catering on a number of occasions and also attended events that Emma has catered. The food is always superb, from a bbq with a delicious selection of meat, vegetables and salads, a sit down meal with the most amazing lasagna and chocolate brownies, a roasted Turkey with all the accompaniments for a Christmas buffet and a wedding with salmon en croute and sides.”
“The food was delicious, and everyone was commenting on the quality and taste. Thank you Emma for helping to make our Golden Wedding Anniversary a special day. We would highly recommend you to anyone who is looking for a caterer for any celebration.”

“We used Kavanagh’s Catering for our wedding in July 2024, having been to our friends’ wedding a number of years ago at which Emma also provided the food.”
