The Nags Bar and Kitchen were superb. We have had fantastic feedback from our customers for the taste of the food. James was great to deal with and delivered exactly what was expected of him. I would absolutely work with him again
Christine Reed
They catered their first vegan wedding for us and it was truly delicious! we had guests quite apprehensive that no meat nor dairy would be in their dinner but everyone loved it and commented on how amazing it was - especially those that previously had reservations!
James was extremely helpful and patient and I couldn't have hoped for a better company to cater our special day! Amazing!
