The food was great and the team did a great job. It was a seamless experience. It was so good to actually be a host and flitter from guest to guest. Yep, sometimes you just have to step down and be a part of your special day and leave it to others.

Golden Roast Canberra were our caterer for the Central Canberra Parish Christmas Lunch on 13 Dec 2025. The meal was first class & another triumph (Golden Roast catered for our Christmas in July function). Some 80 people attended and had nothing but praise for the catering and the staff who looked after us. The food was superb, and the Turkey was especially singled out for praise. Loads of food with great deserts all professionally presented and served. Happy to recommend Golden Roast strongly and will be in contact with them for our Christmas July function in 2026. Thank you, Golden Roast for a great lunch.

Yesterday our retirement village had it's Christmas lunch for 75 residents. The two young female Golden Roast staff were brilliant. They turned up on time, had everything on the table on the dot of time and were happy, polite and efficient all day. It was a very hot day and they worked sol hard through it all and left the place spic and span after they left. The food was excellent and enough for all of us for lunch and many residents took away containers with food for their dinners. I have had Golden Roast do functions on many occasions over the years but this was the best food and staff ever. Thank you.

"We were extremely disappointed with the food at our wedding banquet, considering the premium price per head. The meat was overcooked and lacked flavor, and the pork rind was apparently burnt, despite being advertised on the menu. The vegetables were clearly frozen and reheated, and the salad and pasta had an unmistakable supermarket taste, reminiscent of store-bought options from Woolworths or Aldi. The cakes were cut too early and left out, making them dry and stale. Given the high expectations and cost, we were extremely disappointed and wouldn't recommend this venue for formal events. The food was not enjoyable, and we felt it was overpriced for the quality. "The venue was advertised as an experienced wedding caterer implying a special and memorable dining experience, but unfortunately, it failed to deliver on that promise."

UPDATE: I have now had the pleasure of using Golden Roast on 2 more occasions. Still the same consistent service and food. I have used Golden Roast on a few occasions and have also attended functions where the hosts have used them. Great service and delicious food. I won't hesitate to use them again and can highly recommend them.

For our backyard wedding of 60 guests we had one staff member do the whole lot. We were so shocked at how efficient he was! The food was absolutely delicious. It was a huge hit, I highly recommend The Golden Roast for any occasion.
