At The Hungry Horsebox we work with you to provide your guests with quality buffet food of a high standard. Again if your event is themed then we will work to ensure we fit that theme. From Victorian, eras or even different locations. We will work to a menu and give you a price accordingly. We cater for dietary requirements and will work with you and your guests to ensure they are well provided for. If we can adapt a dish that can be suitable for various dietary requirements then we will adapt accordingly. We work hard to ensure that everyone has a good range of food and if we can adapt dishes so that all parties can enjoy, we will.
We are able to provide..

Poor

These guys sent a text at 0630 for a 0730 event start to say they would not be coming.
The booking had been in the diary for 6 months with constant communication including a few days before the event.
Having read the above , it’s your choice if you feel they would come to your event or simply do the same as they did to me

Response from The Hungry Horsebox
I Understand that you were angry about the event. We contacted you at that said time as I did not want to go to hospital. I had Sepsis. It was not something that I would have picked to happen. Unfortunately people get sick. You can see from all my previous reviews that we are a good, reliable and well performed company that always put our customers needs at a high priority. Your review is the only bad review over 2 years and yes I can understand as to why you have given it to us, but this is not a true reflection as to who we are and how we work. Thank you for your review and we apologise for any inconvenience we may have caused you

Great service, wonderful food!

Annemarie and team did a wonderful job catering for our joint 50th in Winchester. The food was great and so was the service. They even provided bamboo plates and cutlery so we could avoid plastic waste! I would highly recommend them.

Excellent cold buffet

The Hungry Horsebox is a family catering business, who provided our wedding reception with a fantastic cold buffet. Everything was extremely professional, from the initial correspondence from Annmarie, who made sure every item we required, for the menu was provided. On the day everything was set up on time, with efficiency, coutesy, and a high level of personal customer service. Little touches like adding the tomato onsite to some of the sandwiches was noted, and one of my guests commenting that it was extremely rare to like all the food provided. For a 5 star company I will use Ann Marie as a caterer in the future, and won’t hesitate to refer them to people I know. Many thanks guys...Phil & Pauline.

Amazing food and service!

We used The Hungry Horsebox for our staff party and they did not disappoint! We had an amazing supply of food which was all delicious and homemade to a great standard. So happy to have experienced their food and they had some great vegan/veggie options as well. Thankyou so much!

Food and service was perfect

We had a family party of around 30 people for my husbands birthday. All communication beforehand was prompt and they were very helpful catering for allergies with gluten free options. The food delivered was of very good quality and we would have no hesitation recommending The Hungry Horsebox.

Lovely buffet and service, definately recommend!

I would without hesitation recommend Annemarie & Mark for a smooth and professional service.
The buffet selection was perfect, not too overwhelming and easy to make our specific choices.
I live in France, therefore trust and communication was really important. This they provided with no problem at all. Thank you so much for help and the food was delicious :)

Bespoke birthday dinner

It was obvious from the word go that The Hungry Horsebox genuinely cared about giving me a birthday dinner to remember. Annmarie made every effort to create a menu specifically around my preferences - taking time to find out what I liked, then making suggestions to come up with the perfect combinations at exceptional value too. The team were an absolute pleasure to work with on the night itself, the food was even better than expected and the whole experience contributed to a truly memorable birthday weekend. Don't hesitate to book with them, you won't regret it. Thank you for everything!!
