Reviews for Kate's Kitchen

We aim to offer you a fantastic service from start to finish. With nearly 20 years’ experience of looking after the catering needs of the fine people of Bristol, we are proud to share some of their kind words here.

  • Distortion Studios
    Business event

    “Everything was delicious, fresh and well prepared. Highlights included brownies, muffins and scotch eggs…Lauren, working on site for the event, was INCREDIBLE. She was instrumental in making our event such a success. She was friendly, funny and hard working. A delight to work with…. Just really fantastic! Wouldn’t have changed a thing!!

  • Gill & Matt
    Wedding

    “We have had countless people message us or tell us how exceptional the food was. It was everything we hoped for and more…. Sally was faultless from start to finish. Attentive and communicating at every stage, as well as making suggestions to help us customise the day to make it ours. She checked in throughout the day too which felt like a friend coming to say hi, she is truly wonderful as are the rest of the team… We didn’t choose based on this however we loved that this is so important to you as a supplier and think many suppliers could take note by the way you conduct yourselves and your ethos… Would recommend you guys 1000000 times over! I want to get married or have an event again just so we can work with you again. Don’t be surprised if we contact you about a key lime pie in future too – it made Matt’s day and he won’t stop talking about it. Everything about you guys and the food exceeded our expectations, which were already high having tasted it a few months earlier. You guys really are experts at what you do and just the nicest people too. Thank you especially to Sally who we love – she felt like a friend on the day and made us feel truly special throughout.”

  • Jacob
    Anniversary party

    “We asked Kate’s Kitchen to cater for our anniversary party because of their delicious menus, commitment to local produce, and paying a real Living Wage. Every member of the team was friendly and helpful – with clear and quick communication throughout. We had some quite specific dietary requirements from guests and nothing was too much trouble. Every canapé and dish on the feasting menu were delicious and the puds were out of this world. We have received so many compliments from guests and there were only clean plates! Would definitely work with this fab team again”

  • Katie Stearn Mills
    Wedding

    “We used Kate’s Kitchen for our wedding and can’t recommend highly enough! The food was utterly delicious (with excellent portion sizes), we had many compliments from guests. Their ethos towards local, seasonal and sustainable produce and suppliers was impressive and the reason we chose to work with the company. Sally was helpful throughout the process and even more so on the day – thanks to the whole team for contributing to our wonderful day!”

  • Alex and Kathryn
    Wedding

    “Fabulous.. Above and beyond…Honestly…..you were incredible. So tasty. So organised. So professional. So personal. Could not have been any better.”

  • Joanna
    Private event

    “Delicious, full of flavour, perfect portion size…The service on the evening could not have been better, especially the discreet checking in with us as hosts every now and again, in particular that everyone had eaten and no one had been missed. We really appreciated the skills in serving each guest directly so that everyone ate well and all the food was consumed. The clearing up at the end of the evening was a wonderful final treat. I don’t think my kitchen floor has even been mopped at 11pm before! The way things worked out on the evening were slightly different than had been discussed on the phone with another staff member, which didn’t matter at all in the end as Sally was on top of everything, but made me realise that conversations about positions of serving tables, and agreements to keep food back for the band, needed to have been formally recorded and handed over. Just useful info going forward – I have no complaints!… Just a Great Big THANK YOU!”

  • Rachel
    Private party

    “Had Kate’s Kitchen Catering for a family birthday celebration at home. The food was delivered on time with no issues. All delivered in ready to serve crockery, hot and freshly cooked. Everything we ordered from the hot buffet menu was absolutely delicious! The whole service from start to end was professional and seamless! Thank you Kate’s Kitchen and the excellent chef’s who made these delicious dishes and puddings! I would highly recommend!”

  • University of Bristol
    Business luncheon

    “It was absolutely delicious and the portion sizes were excellent…Sally was a star the whole way through the process. Quickly amended quotes and made excellent suggestions. On the day the whole team were fantastic! They were incredibly attentive and everything ran smoothly and to time. They did a great job of organising the tables and the serving stations looked gorgeous. Thank you!… Nothing other than to say a massive thank you! Everything was perfect and we’ll be booking your team in again for Charter Day 2025.”

  • Siwann
    Graduation dinner

    “Kate’s Kitchen were simply amazing catering for our graduation dinner event at Armada House. All communication prior to the event was effective and staff (mainly Sally) made huge efforts to ensure our evening was tailored to our taste. The food went down a treat with guests and all staff were incredibly helpful and friendly with guests. Thank you.”

  • The Society of Legal Scholars
    Graduation

    “Really great variety loved the fact we could have completely plant based… Sally is a total superstar!! all of the staff were really pleasant and great with the delegates thank you…. Was impressed with the local produce used in the food and overall, the style of service, nothing I can think of to improve only that donating left over to food banks would be good, but I know a lot won’t take it so not much you can do here!… Would 100% recommend Kate’s Kitchen and hope to work with you again in the future. THANK YOU!!”

  • Christine
    Private dining

    “Delicious, lots of great comments from guests… Naomi and Mia were really professional, efficient, yet friendly and so helpful. We highly recommend them as a team. They helped the party go so smoothly…Absolutely we would recommend Kate’s Kitchen”

    “If you can’t be bothered to read the rest of the review the headline is… HIRE KATE’S KITCHEN FOR YOUR WEDDING – THEY ARE THE BEST!!!

    I don’t think I have enough words to express how impressive Kate’s Kitchen were as our wedding caterers.

    Right from the initial planning discussions at their office, they were able to offer such flexibility in our menu options and their years of experience catering events and weddings shone through as they were able to guide us through good catering options of what works well and not so well when catering for 100+ guests. We had a tasting session so we could sample our menu ahead of time and all I can say is the food was DIVINE but even then, they were very open to if we wanted to make changes to canape selections etc.

    We had to postpone our wedding due to COVID 19 and actually delayed our wedding by 3 years from 2020 to 2023. Kate’s Kitchen had absolutely no problem with moving our booking this far, didn’t charge any extra for this and even sent us a £25 M&S food voucher on what would have been our wedding day in 2020. This was an incredibly kind gesture and meant a lot especially when most of our other suppliers we’re refusing to move our booking by 3 years and putting prices up.

    We cannot thank Sally and her brilliant team enough for the service and food they provided on our wedding day, they made everything run absolutely seamlessly – an absolute DREAM TEAM!! All the crockery and cutlery were laid out on the tables beautifully, they were fantastic at getting round all the guests with the canapes (as it was a big outdoor space) and they even saved 2 of each canape for myself and my husband which was very much welcomed after not eating anything since breakfast. Our guests commented on how friendly and professional their service was too.

    We were running 30 minutes behind schedule but this was no problem Sally and the team and how the chefs managed to get beautifully plated starters, mains and desserts for 90+ people out of the tiny kitchen we had at our venue (it was a village hall) I will never know, but our friends and family still talk about how delicious the food was whenever our wedding comes up.

    A special mention to Sally as we had a separate bar company serving drinks who were absolutely appalling, but Sally even managed to whip them into shape (which is above and beyond what she needed to do if you ask me) and was fantastic at coordinating guests to move outside for tea and coffee when we needed to turn the room around for the evening.

    Kate’s Kitchen also provided our evening food which was equally as delicious as the wedding breakfast and when we came back to tiny the village hall the following day, the kitchen was absolutely sparkling, and they have taken all the food waste from the kitchen and around the village hall – it was immaculate.

    They made the entire experience of planning the wedding a joy, and their attention to detail meant we felt completely confident things would run as we wanted on the day, which they definitely did and exceeded all our expectations. Their prices are excellent value for money and the fact they focus on using local produce, sustainability and trying to reduce waste is just such a bonus.

    Thank you Sally and all the team at Kate’s Kitchen – the PERFECT wedding caterers and such lovely people!”

  • Tokio Marine HCC
    Corporate event

    “Your staff were very efficient, helpful, polite and seemingly enjoyed catering for us. Overall, from start to finish, you were very helpful and accommodating…. Really good service, from initial contact (you were the first to come back to me of the three caterers I approached) and you were always there to respond to any queries that I had. Thank you again!”

  • Gill Lee
    Wedding

    “Incredible food. Incredible team. Sally runs a tight ship with an impeccable eye for detail, all with a smile on her face!

    Our friends and family are still talking about the food from our wedding and I know it made our day so special to us. Sally helped us create the perfect menu for us, even creating a key lime pie which is my husband’s favourite (and has since been added to the menu).

    I cannot recommend Kate’s Kitchen enough, and will likely be in touch for a key lime pie in the future! X”

  • Fred & James
    Wedding

    “Every single guest I spoke to commented on how fantastic the food was – we were certainly well fed!… Sally and the team went above and beyond to ensure that our day went smoothly. We could not be more grateful. Warm, attentive, caring. Just brilliant!…

    We used them having eaten the food at a previous friend’s wedding. And we will certainly be using them again (for my 40th I hope) and we would certainly recommend them to others as well!”

  • Janet
    Private party

    “Tasty and good-sized portions, very much enjoyed by us and our guests… All three staff members were lovely, they did a fantastic job before and during the event, and cleaned up very efficiently and discretely after food had been served…. We were very happy with the service provided – as said above the food and service were both excellent.!”

  • University of Bristol – Vesalius Clinical Training centre
    Training day

    “We’ve had excellent feedback from the course leader of the event… our delegates and faculty raved about the food – fantastic quality and service and Kate’s Kitchen was a memorable part of the smooth-running event. We, Vesalius, are grateful for our continued partnership – your catering is always mentioned as outstanding by our clients! Thanks again – always a pleasure and delight working with you.”

Providing Bristol a top notch, ethical event catering service
