Highly experienced and regarded chef Graham Dawson established Dawsons Catering in 1994.
Starting out as a boutique catering kitchen, Dawsons is now one of Auckland’s largest and most respected hospitality companies. While fantastic food is Graham’s key focus Dawsons offer a ‘one-stop event shop’ supplying any and all equipment, staff and services to the wedding and event market. Their catering kitchens and headquarters are in Eden Terrace and they are the exclusive caterers to Kelliher Estate (below), The Pah Homestead, Magistrates, The Auckland Art Gallery and The Auckland Museum. The Dawsons team have mastered the art of events at every level from venue choice to cuisine, music, lighting, sound and entertainment. The Dawsons team work together like a highly practiced orchestra – each player contributes talents and skills that together enable them to reliably deliver an outstanding outcome. Their culture has the warm feeling of a family that nurtures talent and celebrates excellence.
Exclusive to Dawsons, The Kelliher Estate on Puketutu Island is an enchanting location for your special occasion or event. Set on a privately owned Island in Auckland’s Manukau Harbour and once the residence of Sir Henry Kelliher, the beautifully restored Spanish Mission homestead sets the scene for stand-out social celebrations and wedding venues.
