The Bakers 26.06.23

The catering produced at our wedding was nothing less than exceptional. The set up was streamline (I didn’t even notice) and the food itself was great quality. We chose their ‘hot bowl option’ for our wedding breakfast with the choices of sausage and mash (1), chicken curry (2) and vegetable lasagna (3), all of which got SO MANY positive comments from my guests, some even running for seconds! Monique was excellent on the day itself, making the whole process completely relaxed and made planning easy. We even changed our menu a few weeks prior to the wedding and it was executed flawlessly. My only regret is not photographing the food as it was presented impeccably. Outstanding service 10/10, would highly recommend.

Poor Communication, Great Food

This review comes in two parts. Firstly, for the service prior to our wedding day. I have to be totally honest, I found the service incredibly poor. The person assigned to our account (Monique) cancelled face to face meetings with no notice (1 hour prior to the meeting), failed to communicate with us on a number of occasions and failed to provide accurate allergen information which could have been dangerous for our guests. The owner, Cait, is also incredibly rude and unhelpful and it took a staff member, Catherine to turn it around. She really is an asset to the company as she provided appropriate communication and made sure we had accurate allergen information. It is disappointing that Monique was unable to do this, but we are thankful to Catherine for her support.

When it came to the day, though, this company is 5 stars. A huge thank you and shoutout goes to Vicky who was phenomenal throughout the day. She communicated with us throughout the event, ensured that we were enjoying the day and was totally amazing from start to finish. The food served was also fantastic and the guests commented on how the meals were fantastic.

Perhaps we were unlucky with the service prior to the day, but I have to say that Vicky and the team on the day, really did turn it around.

Excellent Wedding Caterers

LKC catered for our wedding at Gilbert Whites House. On the day, they were brilliant! The quality of their food is second to none and the service from Emily and her team was excellent - personable & professional at all times. Our guests were very complimentary. Highly recommend using them for your wedding or other event.

Poor Communication but 5 stars for the day

As LKC work in partnership with my wedding venue, I was requested to use them as my caterers. 5 stars for the service, the team were first class, professional, well organised and made sure everything was perfect. It really was perfect and I would like to take this opportunity the thank LKC and the team that the day ran incredibly smoothly and my guests were happy. I am grateful for their hard work and efforts on one of the hottest days of the year it is very much appreciated. Well done!
Poor communication: Communication in the run-up to the wedding was poor starting with a cancelled photo call. LKC response to this is “The cancelled phone call was due to her son being run over that day, it wasn't appropriate for anyone else to take the call as she was managing your details at that point”. I have spoken to 4 different people since then! It took 2 weeks to rearrange a follow-up call. LKC response to this is “this had to be rearranged which I understand was inconvenient for you” the truth is it took 2 weeks because I had to work around their limited availability, I work full time, have a 2-year-old, and was organising a wedding plus it was my hen do that weekend and now I’m left feeling to blame The call took place, it was disturbed due to having to change media four times, the environment was not appropriate for our call with multiple people in the back group and signal problems. It would have been good to have received a list of questions before the call as I was ill-prepared. LKC response to this is “Sadly we don't have huge office space and our meeting room was already booked out that day; we always prefer a face-to-face meeting” I was not offered a face-to-face until I complained. On the call it was agreed that the function sheet would be sent that evening, so that I could fill in the missing information. I did not receive this, the day after our call I emailed the outstanding detail. I further emailed to make sure this had been received, 2 and a half weeks later I got a reply saying she had been on leave.
Food and wine tasting were not offered: If you are happy not to understand the presentation style or taste of the food and wine from a catering company then this is not relevant, I was not comfortable paying £5,000 on this basis. LKC response to this is “Tastings are not included as part of our Chesil offering - I may have said previously that not every client wants or needs one and so as it's an expensive element of the lead up to the wedding to add to every client's bill, however we are now discussing including this and costing for it in our quotes going forward as an optional payable extra.”
The complaint: I was stressed and panicked at this point, I complained and was offered a face-to-face meeting which did resolve most things and I was given a bottle of each of the wines to taste. Further to this we also did do a complimentary starter tasting session, the main and dessert courses were not allowed. I would not have chosen our starter however we were in a position less than 2 weeks before the wedding that we needed to make a choice.
A takeaway meal: My 102 Grandmother who lives locally could not make the wedding day, thoughtfully I wanted a wedding meal to be delivered to her so she could feel included. LKC response to this was “We unfortunately wouldn't be unable to deliver food to your Grandma as the team will be busy on-site with you on the day.” No alternative was suggested, but further to my complaint we did manage to agree that an individual portion would be available the day before for me to collect.
The food: The main course was delicious however did not look how I expected, it was described as ‘slow roasted sirloin of beef, dauphinoise potatoes, baby vegetables, red wine and thyme jus’, it would have been better described as a roast dinner. As I had not seen or tasted it beforehand, I was left a bit disappointed although I do love a roast dinner, the attached photo shows the menu photo which I presumed was our main vs the reality. The dessert was the best part, who doesn’t love profiteroles?

Great food!

The Little Kitchen Company provided us with a wonderful BBQ buffet on our wedding day, and they even sourced a cheese stack for me and reasonable rates.
There where times I would have liked slightly better communication, but the reality is that this wedding season has been far busyer than normal, due to all the weddings that were moved due to covid As such they are stretched further than normal, despite that they where still pretty responsive so I never had to wait more than a week for answers to any questions I had. As my date loomed closer their responsiveness was quicker, meaning I was never panicking.
Even with the busy season, the food they provided was high quality and presented beautifully, prices were also very reasonable.
