Caterer in Pretoria With Heart Behind Every Plate
Ask anyone in Pretoria who has organised a big event and they’ll tell you the same thing — finding a caterer you can actually rely on is harder than it sounds. You want someone who shows up on time, brings enough food, and makes your guests feel looked after.
That’s exactly what SAVF Susan Strijdom has been doing for years. We started as a care home for the elderly in the heart of Pretoria, so feeding people well and treating every guest with dignity is built into everything we do. Today, we bring that same standard to events, functions, and corporate meals all across Tshwane.
Whether you’re planning a company lunch in Centurion, a spit braai in Lynnwood, or a catered funeral in Pretoria North — our team handles it with calm, experienced care.
Event Catering Services in Pretoria
Planning an event in Pretoria is stressful enough without having to worry about the food. Our event catering services take that pressure off your plate entirely. We work with you before the event to plan the menu, portion sizes, and serving style — so on the day, everything runs without a hitch.
We cater for events of all sizes, from small private dinners to large community gatherings. Our team handles setup, serving, and cleanup so you can focus on your guests.
Event Planning Services and Full Event Support
We don’t just drop off food and leave. Our event planning services include helping you choose the right menu for your guests and your budget. Not sure whether a buffet or plated service works better for your venue? We’ll help you figure it out. We work closely with event planners and venue coordinators across Pretoria to make sure your catering fits seamlessly into the bigger picture.
Event Planner Collaboration
If you’re already working with an event planner, great — we’re used to it. We plug into your team easily and make sure the catering side of things never becomes a problem. If you need an event planner, we can point you in the right direction too.
Event Management Company Support
For bigger events managed by event management companies, we offer flexible catering packages that can scale with your needs. Multiple service stations, live cooking, themed menus — whatever your event demands, we can put it together.
Spit Braai Catering Pretoria – Done the Proper Way
There’s something about the smell of a spit braai that brings a crowd together. It works at a birthday party in Garsfontein just as well as a year-end function in Moreleta Park.
Our spit braai catering in Pretoria covers everything — the meat, the fire, the sides, and the serving. We bring experienced braai masters who know how to manage the fire and the timing so your guests eat perfectly cooked meat at the right moment, not an hour late and dry.
We offer whole pig, whole lamb, and chicken spit options. Sides like roasted potatoes, garlic bread, coleslaw, and salads can be added to round out the meal. Whether it’s 30 guests or 300, we scale the spit braai to your numbers.
Popular in Pretoria East, Waterkloof, Faerie Glen, and Centurion — our spit braai catering has become a go-to for garden parties, sports events, and family celebrations across the city.
Corporate Catering and Company Catering in Pretoria
Feeding your team well matters more than most companies realise. A well-catered meeting keeps people focused. A great year-end lunch boosts morale. And when clients visit your office, good food leaves a lasting impression.
Our corporate catering and company catering services are designed around the realities of business — tight schedules, dietary requirements, professional presentation, and reliable delivery. We work with businesses in the Pretoria CBD, Menlyn, Hatfield, Lynnwood Ridge, and all across the greater Tshwane area.
Business Catering for Every Occasion
Our business catering covers everything from daily working lunches to large annual conferences. We offer finger food, buffet setups, plated meals, and tea and coffee stations. Tell us what you need, how many people you’re feeding, and we’ll build a catering plan that works for your budget and your event.
Catering Hiring for Corporates
Need staff and equipment without a full catering package? Our catering hiring service lets you bring in trained serving staff, chafing dishes, crockery, cutlery, and table setups — either as a standalone hire or as part of a full catering package. This is a popular option for businesses that have kitchen facilities but need professional support on the day.
Funeral Catering – Dignified, Warm, and Hassle-Free
Losing someone is hard enough. The last thing a grieving family should worry about is whether there’s enough food for everyone who came to pay their respects.
SAVF Susan Strijdom has been caring for elderly residents and their families for many years. That experience has given us a deep understanding of how important it is to get funeral catering right — not just the food, but the tone, the timing, and the way we treat people on one of the most difficult days of their lives.
Our funeral catering service is offered across Pretoria, including Pretoria North, Soshanguve, Mamelodi, Atteridgeville, and surrounding areas. We provide traditional home-style meals, light refreshments, or full sit-down catering depending on what your family needs.
We handle everything with respect and discretion. You don’t need to chase us on the day or stress about portions. We show up, we set up, we serve, and we clean up — so your family can focus on what matters.
Full-Service Catering and Food Catering in Pretoria
When people ask what full-service catering actually means, here’s the short answer: you tell us the event, we handle the rest.
Our full-service catering packages include menu planning, food preparation, delivery, setup, service during the event, and cleanup afterwards. You don’t need to rent equipment from five different suppliers or track down extra staff on the morning. Everything comes from us.
Our food catering covers a wide range of styles — traditional South African fare, buffet spreads, finger food for cocktail events, hot meals for seated functions, and more. We always use fresh ingredients and prepare food to order.
