Welcome to Gourmet Gorillas

Gourmet Gorillas is led by me – Ian. I am passionate about serving locally sourced produce that is cooked well, driven by my experiences in Spain. Throughout this site, I have detailed menu options that work well, these options are suggested from experiences gained over the last 17 years, providing outdoor catering for weddings and events, both corporate and private. We cater for all events throughout the Midlands, Warwickshire, Gloucestershire and Worcestershire, if you are further afield please still ask as sometimes we can accommodate area’s dependent on the size of the event.

Every event is special and unique and at Gourmet Gorillas we like to discuss exactly what you want and how you want it to be served, so the event is bespoke to your individual requirements. All produce is selected by me and cooked from fresh, whether it is a whole Hog roast, Louisiana Beef, Pork ribs, Salmon kebabs or Paella to name but a few.

So have a browse through this site, send me all your requirements by using tried and tested menu options illustrated here, or if you can’t see what you want, then ask and we will do our best to accommodate.

We cater for 50 to 500 covers

We are delighted to take bookings from smaller parties up to really large events of 500 plus (If you have over 500 guests still please ask!) We have trained chefs and serving staff who are equally adept at coping with all situations.

Meet the team

We have other team members, but these are the driving force behind each event. As the owner of
Gourmet Gorillas, “Silver back” I am involved in the planning and preparation of each and every
event. But this will only work with the help, experience, and customer service skills from the team.

HAPPY TESTIMONIALS

Just to say another huge thank you for doing the christening meal on Sunday. Everyone had a fantastic time and the meal was delicious. It was good of your wife to give up most of her Mother’s Day and was greatly appreciated. Hope to see you again soon

Many thanks

Thanks again Ian to you and Karen for delivering superb food in the garden yesterday!  All our guests were very complimentary!

Andrew Didlick - Knowle

Thank you for providing such a professional and friendly service which made it a really special and memorable evening for us. The pancakes were delicious and everyone enjoyed the experience. the rear of the garden was definitely the best position. I hope you managed to get to the Blue Boar after?

I will leave a review on your Facebook page and recommend you to any of our friends who are looking for quality event catering.

Wishing you all the best for a busy and successful summer.

Just a quick note to thank you and Karen so much for everything last night. It was really lovely to meet you both and the burgers were absolutely fantastic.

We had loads of really fabulous feedback on the food and it certainly helped to make our evening a great success.

I hope you don’t mind, but I have passed your details on to the cricket club too, as they were singing your praises and might be looking for someone to help with some of their events.

I will definitely be in touch again when we have future events.

Thank you so much once again for everything.

COVID had already disrupted our first wedding date, thank you for being so obliging and letting us re book, I know it must have been a pain for you to do the risk assessment to make sure we were all safe and following the guidelines, it was so much appreciated as it took all the pressure off us. The BBQ was amazing despite the circumstances, we will definitely be booking you again as soon as we find an excuse for a party!

Sara and Michael - Bromsgrove

Mike and I just wanted to say a huge thank you for a fantastic BBQ last week. Our friends were all really wowed – we have had so many compliments about the food. You guys were a pleasure to have around.

Thanks so much – we are looking forward to catching up with you talk about Mikes big birthday in a few years time!

Dear Ian and Karen,

Apologies for not doing this sooner, but I would like to thank you both so much for providing the fantastic pork, stuffing and apple rolls on Saturday. The quality of your food and your service was excellent, and everyone has commented on how having you there made the afternoon all the more special.

I will most definitely be in touch again in future to provide hot food at more garden events we have planned, and especially when we open our brand new music ‘hall’ in Spring next year! Watch this space!
