Their staff were great on the day, working with our changing schedule to make our day as stress free as possible. We did a family style dinning style and the food was amazing. We had so many compliments from our guests. I would happily reccomt good chemistry to anyone planning a wedding.

We were looking for a catering company that was up for a creative challenge - to cater for a theatre symposium at Victoria University where the food would be inspired by Italian Futurism. Good Chemistry became part of our team in delivering this experience to our clients. The consultation process was excellent - able to exchange ideas and find exciting ways to meet our needs. The result, on the day was outstanding - the food was inventive, delicious and a feast for the eyes. Palates were challenged and the food became an integral part of our event. In addition, these are lovely people to work with. Highly recommended.

Recently Good Chemistry provided the catering for my wedding. There was about 200 guests and all reports were very good and the food was excellent. My own personal experience in dealing with them from an organizing perspective was very positive. They were very good at catering for many various guests with various dietary requirements. Their staff were well presented, well mannered and overall they did and exemplary job.

I just wanted to thank Tim and the team at Good Chemistry Catering for the superb catering job. The food was so delicious (bean salad was my personal favourite), my guests and I enjoyed all of the dishes. The chocolate cake and pear tart in particular were crowd favourites. I would have no hesitation in recommending Good Chemistry Catering to all my friends, family and colleagues. Excellent value for money with a very good menu selection.
