VENUE HIRE

We use Karaka Catering regularly for board meeting lunches and events we have during the year. The standard of food is excellent, and we get so many comments on their working lunchboxes. Sander and his team a delight to deal with, they meet the brief and deliver every time. I would thoroughly recommend Karaka Catering; you won’t be disappointed.
