We booked Dookies for our wedding

We booked Dookies for our wedding, 2 May 2026. Their customer service was great, with seamless communication despite our indecisive stance on which caterer to book. Dookies food was very tasty, incredibly flavoursome with a variety of meat, fish and vegetarian/vegan options.

We used Dookies Grill for our wedding…

We used Dookies Grill for our wedding and they were excellent.

From our very first interaction with Sean, he was professional, calm and easy to work with. After our tasting, we knew straight away they were the one, especially after comparing them with several other caterers we reviewed.

Caribbean food is very important to me. I grew up eating it every day, cooked by the best chef in the world — my mum. As she is no longer here, it meant a lot to find a caterer who could represent that standard and do it justice.

On our special day, everything was perfect. The food was outstanding, full of flavour, beautifully presented, and consistently praised by our guests. We had a mix of dishes including jerk chicken, oxtail and sea bass, and the rum punch went down extremely well.

The service was just as impressive, calm, organised, and everything ran smoothly from start to finish. They also treated the bride and groom like royalty, which made the whole experience feel even more special.

We highly recommend Dookies Grill and would definitely use their services again.

Thanks again for making our day special.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

The food at Dookies Caribbean Grill completely blew me away. The jerk chicken was smoky and tender, the plantains were perfectly caramelised, and the curry goat was rich and full of flavour — clearly made with real care. Everything tasted authentic and fresh, not like typical catering food. Generous portions, great presentation, and lovely staff to boot. I'll definitely recommend.

An absolutely outstanding experience

An absolutely outstanding experience. We had a Staff Wellbeing Day and needed catering for 300 people. Dookie's Grill were a pleasure to work with from start to finish. The food was incredible and we have never had so many compliments from staff - it was presented beautifully, piping hot and tasted delicious - no mean feat when catering for such a huge number! The team were lovely; attentive, professional, responsive and hardworking. I honestly can't recommend Dookie's Grill highly enough and wouldn't hesitate to use them again.

Excellent service and delicious food!

Dookies Grill catered for my Mum's 70th birthday party. The food was delicious and service was excellent from start to finish. Shaun and the team are so easy to work with and were happy to answer any questions I had promptly - nothing was too much.

The finishing touches and overall presentation of the food really elevated the event - simply beautiful!

Faultless, whole experience was 5 star

We used Dookies Grill for a celebration of life function and we were so pleased with everything from start to finish. Quick response times (within 24 hours I received a telephone call) excellent communication throughout, everyone was very professional, accommodating, helpful and most of all the food was delicious. All our guests commented on the food and how good it was. There was plenty to go round and many left with a take away box for later. This has been the best experience I’ve had with caterers, top quality, you’re doing a fantastic job, keen up the good work. Thank you all so very much 🙏

Absolutely amazing experience with…

Absolutely amazing experience with Dookies! The food was a hit from our food trial to our actually wedding day. Sean went above and beyond to not only ensure the food for our event was everything and more but to check in on how we were actually doing during the process. We can’t thank Sean and the team enough and we will be recommending Dookies to anyone that asks for a Caribbean caterer!

Wow!!


Wow, what can I even say?

The food was outstanding. I have hired caterers many times before and DOOKIES Grill is far by the best.

All my guests keep talking about the food, my mum even warmed up the last leftover 5 days later and happily ate it because it was so nice!!

I’m so grateful for the hard work that Sean and the team put in that day honestly I even think they did more than what I paid for.

My whole family is like when are you hiring them again? 😂😂 I’m literally looking for an excuse to book again!

Top notch service

I recently used this catering company for my birthday and retirement celebration at the weekend, and I couldn’t have been more impressed. The food was absolutely outstanding—beautifully presented and full of flavor.

The staff were friendly and welcoming yet remained highly professional throughout the entire evening. Everything ran smoothly, and the level of service was truly A1 from start to finish.

They helped make a very special occasion even more memorable. I would highly recommend them and would not hesitate to use their services again.
