Testimonials from those that have experienced the Whole Hog!
Thank you so so much again for everything, we literally have not stopped hearing how good the food was and how much there was! Everyone has been complimenting it :) I can't thank you enough, you were the most organised supplier we had, so organised that I barely needed to talk to you when you were out and I barely heard/seen you, you just worked away and did the best job :) I've heard such great things that all the chefs were so helpful to anyone with food allergies, etc. My cousin who has a nut allergy said the chefs were so good letting her know what she could and could not have and even made her special mashed potatoes which she was so touched by! Everyone was so happy with the food which is such a great thing!
Go raibh míle míle m'agaibh uilig :)
It's well deserved!
Thanks

Hi John,
I wanted to say a huge thank you to you and the team for a wonderful welcoming meal to the Castle on Friday night. From the beautiful smell of fine Irish pork wafting to greet all the guests to the fine feed that everyone enjoyed as they came to a traditional Irish party - I could not have asked for more. The rave reviews by the guests and the laden plates said it all - I'm sure you saved many from a mighty hangover to.
Your team were excellent throughout and apologies I didn’t get to thank them all personally for their work -
It has been a pleasure to deal with you throughout and you made a super contribution to our legendary weekend - thanks doesn't really seem enough.
Good luck for the summer and if there is ever anything you need from me John, just shout.
All the best

Hi John,
I just wanted to drop you a line to say thanks so much for catering in Blackwater Castle.
I didn't make it over in time for the meal myself but I managed to grab a pulled pork sandwich afterward and it was great!
All the reports were that it was a huge success; great service and the best food we've ever had at this event, so I thought I'd pass along the compliments!
Thanks again for the great work,
Kind Regards,

Hi John,
Just getting back in touch to extend a huge thank you to you for an amazing meal and service in Cork,
As you know I am extremely grateful to you for stepping in at short notice to cater our event.
From our first interaction to our last you have been an absolute pleasure to deal with, you solved all of my problems and a weight lifted that day. However, in addition to that you really did follow through with an amazing spread on the day, everyone was raving about the food, it was beautiful ,You managed the large numbers extremely well. From the moment you opened for service there was a massive queue, however this disappeared in the blink of an eye and before I knew it I had a room full of very well fed and very content guests.
Thank you so much for everything, I can't recommend you highly enough and will do so at every opportunity going forward.
If there's anything else I can do by way of recommendation, please let me know as I would be only delighted!
Best regards,
Sara

'Dear John and the whole hog team.
Chris and I want to extend our gratitude to you for your professionalism and quality of service throughout our dealings with you for our wedding preparations. You went above and beyond our expectations from the moment we decided you were the guy for catering for our wedding. As clients' we felt you went out of your way to sort things out and made our job of organising things from the UK a much easier task.
The food itself was absolutely amazing, high quality and way above our expectations. I am still getting feedback about how people loved the crackling especially. Your competitive pricing was the reason we chose your company and somehow despite keeping the costs low for us you still managed to provide high quality tasty food.
We would highly recommend 'The whole hog' for any event and both agree your meat was so succulent it could only have fallen off the bone as you suggest. Best of luck to you and we have no doubt your business will be extremely successful once more people hear about the whole hog experience. Thank you very much for making our wedding such a special occasion.

Hi John ,
Just about returning back to reality after what was the best weekend we have ever had.We wanted to say thanks to you and your team again so much for the hard work. I appreciate it was not an easy job. Your professionalism and calmness in what I can only imagine was a hectic day was something to behold, we couldn't have wished for anything more on our Wedding day. Whatever about what we have to say, we have had nothing but good feedback from the guests. In fact you stole the limelight - I thought people might be wowed by the fireworks, or impressed by the grand setting of the castle but no, the food seems to be one of the main talking points - everyone has been raving about it. So in short, a huge thank you from both of us, you made our day.

To John and all The Whole Hog crew - a sincere thank you for catering at our wedding party in June. From the outset, you were a pleasure to deal with. You were friendly, professional and accommodating and we really appreciated you making the whole experience as easy for us as possible.
The food was superb, and the feedback from our friends and family was excellent. It was so lovely for everyone to arrive to all the wonderful aromas and to the theatre of the pig on a spit!
