What our customers think...

I would be delighted to recommend The Guzzling Gander to you. I have known Charles for about 4 years we have always had a really great working relationship with him. We regularly book the bar for our Annual Summer Ball for approx 450 guests in a marquee and are always delighted with the service, range of drinks, staff, set up etc. As the event had a James Bond theme this year they had special cocktails available and offered table service to our guests which went down well.

I’ve re booked them for a Wedding we have in a marquee in August too and would have no hesitation in recommending them to you.”

"Right from the get go I knew we were dealing with professionals, every aspect of the booking was covered with a comprehensive check list of questions covering everything from access to how glass clearing would work in conjunction with the other staff working on bars. The cocktails were super and the set up is very classy with everything you would expect of a state of the art high street cocktail bar. Thanks Guzzling Gander and we will be booking again very soon."

Guys, what can I say, your bar looks stunning, as one guest said this is no ‘micky mouse setup!’ Your staff, service and professionalism are second to none along with your ability to deal with unexpected situations calmly and seamlessly! Drinks variety and quality are great, you were certainly a great focal point for the day and also being able to hire you for the Toastmaster service was a godsend. Would have no hesitation in recommending you. Thanks again.”

We cannot recommend the Guzzling Gander highly enough for their professionalism, full bar service and delightful staff during the Lambton Team Shoot. It is not easy to provide such a service in the middle of a field and especially when it rains! But it was accomplished from an organizers point of view easily and with expertise. We have no hesitation in asking the Guzzling Gander to return for our 2015 event. Of course the best recommendation is from our clients who have all commented extremely favourably.”
