Attended a wake held at the cricket club, the buffet provided exceeded our expectations! There was such a big selection of sandwiches, quiche, sausage rolls, chicken drumsticks & samosas all beautifully laid out in a beautiful venue room. The staff were fantastic and the drinks were a very reasonable price. Would have no hesitation to recommend for any occasion. Many thanks!
