anyone used waitrose entertaining? opinions?

[Tutter]

thinking of using them to supplement a barbecue (so, probably a leg of lamb plus salads and desserts)

very good
do it

their cakes aren't as good as homemade but the trifles etc are lush

Friends used it for their daughters christening and it was excellent.

We have used couple of times - very good.

I think you have to take into account it' made in advance

so things that should really be fresh and risk go hard/stale/soggy (cakes, canapes) migth be less than perfect, but the dressed/chopped salads, mean, salmon, pies etc are fine
actually the pies are more than fine.

I use them for our yearly summer party in the garden and have also used them for kids parties. I think they are great.

I used them a month ago mainly for salads and little cup cakes. Very good service, and the salads were lovely.

My colleague also used them last week - bought everything from there, and he couldn't fault it at all.

great, thanks

leg of lamb, barbecue meats, salad, puds and kids' cupcakes are on my list so far...
