EXCELLENT Based on 286 reviews Ian Davies2026-09-07Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Both Hugh and Adam did an amazing job of organizing and helping us through planning the catering for our joint 60th party, an outdoor event for 50 or so guests. Seamless process from responsive first contact through to our chef James rocking up on the day with three amazing servers who effortlessly took over our kitchen area and put both of our minds at rest that we could relax and enjoy our own party. Food was exceptional, service was discrete and professional and best of all my wife and I could socialize and enjoy our party. All of our guests loved the spread and were impressed with how tidy and clean everything was when they left! A huge thank you to the team. Can not recommend them highly enough. If you are thinking of giving them a call…. do it! Heidi Dale2026-09-06Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had such a lovely time celebrating my dad’s 60th here! The food was absolutely amazing, everything was delicious and beautifully presented. The venue is fantastic, with a really nice, relaxed atmosphere that made the whole occasion feel special without being too formal. We were also very well looked after throughout our visit, with friendly and attentive service. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to celebrate! We’ll certainly be back for more food — highly recommend! Will Boddington2026-09-04Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Top tier food and awesome people, highly recommend! John Butler2026-09-04Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Fantastic feed! Jade Willer2026-09-03Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Best food I’ve ever had. No words on the flavour it was absolutely unreal. Portion sizes were really good too. All staff super friendly and Adam was lovely! Highly recommend. We will be talking about this food for a VERY long time 😍 Jessica Smith2026-09-03Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Absolutely amazing! We are real foodies so when we booked Adam & his team we were really hoping it lived up to our expectations & it definitely did! Perfectly prepared for our wedding & something just a little bit different from the usual boring feast. The meat was delicious as well as all the sides. Plenty to go around including for the veggies. Adam was great chatting to our guests, such a good guy which really offered the whole package. We highly recommended The Aussie Smoker! Chris Smith2026-09-02Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had my birthday at The Aussie Smoker in Penryn a few weeks back and it was AMAZING! The food was top notch (especially the pork belly) and I was really impressed by the team and approach to hosting. They dealt with my groups wide array of intolerances and dietary restrictions - including coeliac, vegan, veggie, allergy to honey and nuts - without any issues. I'd thoroughly recommend The Aussie Smoker for any event. Scott Balsdon2026-09-02Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Adam catered for a summer party we had at our house. We just over 50 guests and everyone raved about the food. We had some vegetarians as well who were also well catered for. I would highly recommend Adam and his team, the level of service and interaction leading up to the party was excellent as was the food!!! Thanks Adam and Sophie for ensuring evryone was well fed and ready for the party! Cheers Scott and Sally Mais A2026-09-01Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a fantastic experience with the catering service! Adam had videos calls to ensure we were a match and discussed all dietary options. Everyone in Cornwall gasped with excitement when we said we would be having the Aussie smoker cater for us at our wedding… now I know why! The food was absolutely delicious, beautifully presented, and enjoyed by everyone. James arrived on the day, punctual, friendly and providing smiles and generous portions! He was professional, and attentive throughout, making everything run smoothly. All left overs were left for people to go back for more throughout the night and everything arrived fresh and on time. Highly recommended for anyone looking for reliable, high-quality catering! Sarah Johnston2026-09-01Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The Aussie Smoker team were nothing short of exceptional! From the food and service to the overall experience, they had absolutely everything covered. Not only did they keep us, the bride and groom, well fed throughout the day, but they also made sure our guests had the best time. Our guests are still talking about the food now — which says it all! We were so lucky to have Adam with us on the day. He was absolutely amazing and became a real highlight of the day for us. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and he went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. We genuinely can’t thank the whole team enough and can’t wait to come back to Cornwall to visit their site and, of course, eat more of their incredible food!
