I'm truly impressed with this team's service. They were a joy to interact with, always willing to go the extra mile. Everyone loved the food. On a particularly warm day, they thoughtfully left behind cool bags to keep the sandwiches fresh and even came back to collect them. I'll certainly be returning to them in the future.

Superb!

Can’t speak highly enough of these guys. An absolute delight to deal with - nothing too much trouble- and the food was thoroughly enjoyed by all. They even left the cool bags as it was a hot day so the sandwiches didn’t wilt - AND they picked them up. Will definitely be using again.

Delicious

Delicious, creative, refreshing alternative to the beige pastry buffets so many events offer! Was attending a Birmingham Chamber event and couldn’t believe how lucky we were to have such beautiful food!

Went to Caroline's blind wine tasting evening at The Steam Room, which was informative, without being stuffy, accompanied with tasty bits from Festen- hope this will be repeated.

Friday night staple

Lovely fresh, home-cooked food. So far we've had the Middle Eastern lamb meatballs with tomato sauce and orzo salad, chicken and leek pie, aubergine parmigiana and fish pie. Their roast potatoes are the best I've ever had.

I have been having weekly Festen meals for quite a long time and they are a culinary delight which I look forward to every week. Fresh, delicious dishes with easy to follow cooking instructions. Vegware containers are used where appropriate. I just feel thoroughly nourished by the end of my meal! Can't recommend Festen highly enough

So glad we got to discover Festen at the Edgbaston Village Artisan Market! Their food was of exceptional quality, the quiche was lighter than air, the banoffee cheesecake was silky and delicious and the beef shin pie was out of this world. Thank you Festen!

Great food and wonderful service

We regularly have Festen deliveries on Fridays and the food is always of very high quality and excellent value. We occasionally ask Andy to cater for special occasions too and he comes up with some lovely menus which are much admired by our friends!

We regularly have Festen meals on a Friday. It is great having meals delivered to your door. The food is really delicious and Andy and Caroline are so friendly.
There is a great selection. Our favourites are arancini , keema lamb pies and the delicious tomato sauce with many of the dishes.

Absolutely delicious food- it’s great being able to have such high quality meals delivered to our door and the team are always very friendly and accommodating. We look forward to seeing what’s on the menu each week and we’ve also tried the roasts and Christmas specials which were equally delicious!

Delicious food delivered to your door

We are fairly new customers and are really enjoying the variety of very tasty dishes Festen has to offer. Delivery is superb and Andy and Caroline are very friendly and helpful. I would recommend Festen to everyone, just as they were recommended to us.

Make your Friday night at home special with a Festen meal.

We have had many meals from Festen over the last two years. We always enjoy them. The pies are particularly delicious - as are all the puddings.

Festen - A must to try!!

Andy and Caroline provided a delicious afternoon tea party for 30 guests. Michelin quality is an understatement. The sandwiches selection was superb all had crusts cut off so tasty and delicate. Cakes melt in your mouth and Tiramisu was to die for. We regularly order from the Festen weekly menus the Quiche and Pies being our favourites. All arrives fresh and can be frozen. Festen also provide a selection of dinner menus just what you need when you want impress guests at home or treat the family.
