What our customers are saying - Nadine - Outfit North Bay of Islands - "We ran a Womens 1 Day Retreat for 40 women and asked Donna from Picnic Box to cater the day from breakfast, snacks, lunch and afternoon tea. We wanted to keep the food healthy, nutritious and also in theme for the type of food women should be eating. Not only did Donna hit the brief she super seeded it, the attention to detail in all of the meals was incredible, her display of the food and the timeliness of the food was on point. All the ladies loved the food and were asking for recipes at the end of the day, especially the incredible protien cookies! Donna also kindly did a little cooking display which was fun and interactive.Cannot recommend Picnic box enough for catering and in general their boxes - I have ordered numerous times for girls nights, valentines with my husband and even dinner with friends when no one could be bothered cooking - it was always delicious and super easy~We are lucky to have such an awesome option in the Bay of Islands! Thank you!!" Feb 2026
