Beales Gourmet | Wedding caterers in Dorset
Established in 2005, BEALES GOURMET are one of the fastest growing Catering & Event Management companies on the South Coast based at the Italian Villa, set within the Compton Acres gardens in Canford Cliffs, Poole. The company was founded by award winning, Michelin star-trained chef Tony Beales, now Director of Catering.
Catering for all types of events in and around Dorset & Hampshire, Tony brings a stylish and contemporary approach to the catering using fresh, seasonal and where possible locally sourced produce in the menus. Over the past 6 years Beales Gourmet has established many exclusive contracts to provide catering in venues which include The Italian Villa, Highcliffe Castle, the Winchester Guildhall, Lulworth Castle and the Lighthouse in Poole. Beales Gourmet also specialises in corporate, private house & yacht catering, in addition to all types of marquee events. From the very start Tony saw a niche in the market for affordable, trustworthy and high quality catering - a vision which has proved successful in every way and founded the basis on which Beales Gourmet has grown and continues to grow.
Beales Gourmet's latest venture has been taking on the management of the Italian Villa at Compton Acres in February 2010, providing a personal & exclusive service for wedding receptions, corporate events and private parties.

Testimonial:
“Dear Tony,
Having returned from honeymoon, Marie and I would like to thank you and your team for all the excellent food and catering on our wedding day. I’m sorry we didn’t get the opportunity to write before we left. We both had the most wonderful day at Highcliffe Castle. Thank you for all your assistance in the planning stages and also to your professional and attentive staff, ensuring every aspect of the day ran smoothly. You clearly have wedding day organisation at the castle down to a fine art. All of our guests thoroughly enjoyed the food, with many even taking away the menu cards as souvenirs!”
Daniel and Marie (Highcliffe Castle 2nd July 2011)
