    Incredible!

    I’m a wedding florist and work frequently with the Foray team. I can’t say enough good things, about their food, which is just phenomenal, or the team. The service they provide to their couples is second to none and working with them is always a pleasure!

    Dream Food!

    The food everyone is still talking about.
    Oli, Alex and the team, were just a dream from start to finish!
    We can not recommend them enough.
    Nothing was too much of a hassle, we had a few dietary restrictions but that was no issue.
    The food, service, staff were all unbelievably amazing and would not hesitate to use them again! 1000/10!!!
    Thank you so much ☺️

    Extremely professional and wonderful food

    Foray catered our wedding at Allan Bank, Grasmere. They were consummate professionals throughout the process and we would wholeheartedly recommend them.

    From the beginning of the wedding planning process, they were accommodating and welcoming. They worked seamlessly with our other suppliers, and were very patient in meeting various requests (such as serving cake and tea) through the planning process.

    We were also very impressed with the menu tasting experience, delivered in their beautiful restaurant Aven, in Preston.

    They were especially impressive on the day, and numerous guests and suppliers commented on how exceptional the food was and how efficient and professional the team were.

    All the food was delicious and elegantly presented, and the canapés were particularly excellent!

    Special thanks to Stephen for coordinating the catering and on the day delivery so efficiently, and for reserving us canapes!

    Flavour served with professionalism

    From the start of your experience with this team you will be communicated to with a friendly and professional manner. Their team are fun, friendly and deliver wonderful food... what more do you need?! Each event I have worked on with them has gone wonderfully even in challenging venues. I appreciate their effort and good humour as well as flexibility.

    Amazing Food and Service for our Lake District Wedding!

    I couldn't recommend Foray Catering highly enough. The food obviously speaks for itself, which is no surprise given the credentials and experience of the two chefs, but what impressed me more about Foray was their process in the run up to the wedding, the people we dealt with (in particular Stephen and Voilaine and then the delivery on the day itself. Deciding on the caterer for your wedding is daunting and we found that we were all over the place initially. We both wanted amazing food but, beyond that, didn't really have any idea where to go. Foray have sample menus with guide prices (which many caterers don't offer) but you are then invited to essentially ask for whatever you want. We had an initial zoom about wedding numbers, location etc with Violaine. We were then invited to a taster evening (definitely do this) where both Stephen and Olly (one of the chefs) came to speak to us to discuss what we wanted, how they could amend the dishes (which was pretty much limitless) and also what they'd recommend. One key thing that Foray do is offer choice to your guests, so we were able to send our guests a menu first where they could pick their starter, desert and a main; they then even catered for dietary requirements outside of this. We ended up offering a meat option, a fish option and then a vegan option. They'll build it to fit with cost so, if you're into your food, this is a dream.

    Once the menu was nailed down I expected to not hear anything until the wedding... I was very wrong. They checked in with us regularly and even went above and beyond in helping us with some coordination which was well outside of their remit as caterers (table plans, layouts, timings, additional staff).

    Our venue didn't have a bar so we also used Foray's cocktail staff and waiting staff who were equally as amazing.

    On the day itself, their staff was hero's and really added to our enjoyment and experience; Stephen himself stepped in to help out with some coordination issues we had and we're both eternally grateful for this on what wad the biggest day of our life.

    This sounds like an exaggeration but our guests were absolutely blown away by the food. Many of our guests have never had the opportunity to enjoy food of this quality and we were really happy to be able to give them that experience.

    If you want food (and cocktails) to play a big part in your day, to have a tailored menu and don't want to have to worry *one bit* about the delivery, Foray is for you. They are worth every penny and more.

    Amazing in every way!

    What a team! Matt, Oli, Steve and Vi, we can’t thank you enough. Foray absolutely exceeded our expectations in every way. On the Saturday, everyone was commenting on how lovely and amazing your team were, and that the food was restaurant level. I think my favourite quote was ‘you had no business having such excellent pizza at a wedding’. Honestly the best decision we made for the wedding, we are so glad you could be part of it.

    Absolute professionals!

    Absolutely fantastic experience with Foray! For our wedding at the Silverholme Manor, the tent provider (All About ME Marquees) I chose neglected to do a site visit until 72 hours before the wedding. This resulted in very serious and major issues. The Foray team arrived on site early to figure out alternative solutions. What could have been an absolute nightmare turned out to be a beautiful event. This is because Stephen, Oli, and of course Violaine are true professionals who went beyond their roles and responsibilities to make sure things run smoothly. Oli designed a custom menu with British & local ingredients at heart and with Turkish and German influences. When we had our tasting appointment, it was so difficult to decide which option to go with because everything was so good. The pizza station we had the evening before the wedding was a great success despite the rain: even the most discerning of our guests went in for seconds. Violaine recommended the finest wine pairings but was also budget-conscious enough to suggest that we order some items from Tesco directly. Stephen and his service team were all absolute pro's: during the wedding breakfast, my husband remarked how, for every serving of every dish, Stephen comes out of the catering tent, with the ladies coming after him like beautiful ballerinas in perfect order and harmony. These are all small details, but hopefully I was able to communicate how the Foray team goes above and beyond to make sure the whole event is a success. From the bottom of my heart, thank you very much!

    Foray Catering's reply:

    Hello Birce and Max,
    Thank you for your kind words,
    We are delighted you enjoyed your bespoke menu with British, Turkish and German influence.
    It was such a pleasure to look after you and all of your guests throughout the day and glad we could play a small role in making your special day such a memorable one! We really hope to see you all again in the future and wish you a life time of happiness as Husband and Wife.
    Team Foray

    Outstanding food and exemplary service

    The Foray Catering team are absolutely fantastic. They catered our full wedding weekend, starting with pizzas & ice cream on the Friday night, brunch on Saturday, and then the wedding dinner, plus evening cheese! All the food was superb, matched by their service and professionalism.
    We would consider ourselves quite 'foody' people - we've eaten at many of the best restaurants in the UK - so food was really important to us at our wedding, and Oli and Matt surpassed our expectations. They were super relaxed about bespoking the menu to suit our specific tastes & preferences (including serving marmite butter - SO good!), and on top of it all they are some of the nicest people we've ever met.
    Stephen ran the service like clockwork, always making sure we were happy with everything (which we inevitably were), and ensured we could relax in the knowledge that our guests were well taken care of.
    We are immensely grateful to Oli, Matt, Stephen and Vi for making such a huge part of our wedding so memorable for all the right reasons.

    Foray Catering's reply:

    Hello Holly and David,
    We just loved your intimate weekend wedding, we are so pleased you enjoyed your pizza station and ice cream station on the Friday and your bespoke wedding menu on Saturday.
    Your marmite butter will be on the menu next year !!
    From the entire Foray Team we wish you both all the best for your married life
    and we hope to see you all again soon.
