Testimonials

Hearing feedback from our clients makes our day! It's not just Sarah's cooking that our clients love; our helpful, polite and professional waiting staff make our larger events run incredibly smoothly.

Here are a few examples of the kind words our clients have shared with us after events.

  • “Sarah Hall.... how can we even begin to thank you!
    We had the best day I think it's possible for people to have, and it would have been nowhere near as brilliant without you involved.
    Everything was seamless, the front of house team were amazing and just preempted every person's needs, the cocktails were made to perfection and the food was INSANE! We've had so many compliments from people.
    Just the best best best! We're just coming down from the high now hence only emailing you today.
    We're already trying to work out what future occasions might require a Sarah catering element :)

    Milly and Joe, Benenden

  • “Thank you so much for all of your kindness and support for the last two years. The best decision we ever made was hiring you, not only because your food was incredible from start to finish, but we have also gained another friend.” ”

    Emily and Mark, Iden Green

  • “We’re just sitting on the sofa, still trying to come to terms with just how incredible yesterday was and we quickly realised that we need to say the biggest of thank yous to you. Honestly I lost count of the number of people who came up to me and said how incredible the food was!! From problem solving in the morning to nailing all the details through the day we can’t have asked for any more and are so so grateful - we just feel lucky to have found you, know you and for you to be such a big part of our day. You blooming nailed it!”

    Emma and Tony, Iden Green

  • “Just wanted to reach out to say another big thank you to you and the whole team for making our day run so smoothly. The food was incredible all day, all of our guests have said how yummy everything was and how polite and good the staff were. ”

    Paige and Aaron, Iden Green

  • “THANK YOU! Goodness me what a wonderful day we had, it was so so beautiful and for us and the guests it went so smoothly! So many complements about the food, particularly the potatoes, rice and fish and chips. I really hope that for you and your team the day went well, it was so wonderful knowing we had you by our side looking out for us.

    Emma and Alex, Chilham

  • “We wanted to say a HUGE thank you for being a part of both of our weddings, we have loved getting to know you and we just knew after every email and phone call with you that everything was always going to be alright! You were our guiding star through the whole process. I looked back at our emails – our first email to you was in May 2019!! I can’t believe it! Also can’t believe we’ve had a baby since then, and I’m so glad he got to meet you!
    We loved every second of both of our days, and such a huge part of that was down to your utterly delicious food, you just captured everything perfectly. Our guests all loved the food as well, obviously!

    Anna and Tom, Iden Green

  • “I can’t thank you enough for all you did yesterday. You were totally brilliant (of course) and everybody has been absolutely raving about the food. Also, we had seven house guests last night and they thought your salmon and noodle dish was a-ma-zing.

    Your lemon posset is to die for.
    I wouldn’t ever want to work with any other caterer.
    As well as the marvellous food it helps so much that you are super-organised so that everything you do goes so smoothly on the day.

    Sarah, Burwash

  • “Thank you so much for today you were brilliant and the canapés delicious and the girls all so efficient too - all the ingredients for a great party so many many thanks. ”

    Joanna, Harrietsham

  • “Such a big thank you. It was a brilliant day and wonderful to have so many mates together again. You made it possible and truly enjoyable for me.
    All the food was delicious and beautifully presented. Everyone loved it and hugely enjoyed their lunch. I could wax on about the succulent lamb, fab risotto, perfect veg, gorgeous puds and great cake( love that icing) but I won’t say more than that you totally triumphed. And what about those chocs and jelly’s?”

    Lesley, Wittersham

  • “Your food was legendary – everyone has raved about it. Only complaint was from all our young who wanted midnight munchies of more of everything. Thank you – it was brilliant and so lovely having you and your team cater it.

    Linda, Etchingham

  • ““From the minute (and I do mean the very minute) that Sarah and I exchanged emails about whether she was free to cater our wedding in August 2021, I just knew that she was "the one." Her expert knowledge and enthusiasm came through so clearly - even over email - and we were so excited to work with her for our wedding. In every interaction we had with Sarah, she was so professional and so kind, and nothing was too much trouble for her. What we loved most was how flexible she was; unlike most caterers who want you to pick from a "set menu," Sarah put the ball in our court, constantly asking us what WE would like, and then making it happen. She really puts the couple and their wants first, and with such creativity helps their vision to come to life. The food tasting was one of the most enjoyable days we had in the wedding planning. Sarah cooked up a feast for us, and we tried so many options (even when the buttons on jeans started to strain!) As the day grew closer, Sarah became a "confidant" and we would turn to her for advice and tips. On the day itself, Sarah and her team go above and beyond catering - they all coordinate together, ensuring everything is taken care of and that things are running to time, but being so flexible when they (inevitably!) don't. Planning a wedding during a pandemic was a little stressful - to say the least! - but Sarah was consistently supportive and made us feel really taken care of. In more ways than one, Sarah was our guardian angel and I wouldn't hesitate in recommending her to anyone.” ”

    Sophie and Jordan, Benenden

  • “Wasn’t it just an incredible day! I honestly cannot thank yourself, Katie and all your brilliant and gorgeous kitchen and waiting staff. The food was absolutely insane! The desserts are still being talked about! I’ve honestly never been to a wedding where it ran so perfectly from start to finish, with so many extra added touches and so much thoughtfulness from your team. I was absolutely blown away. I feel like I need to throw another party just so I can have your team doing such a brilliant job again! You were all super stars and we are so very very grateful. We have soooooo many compliments on you guys and the amazing food, you absolutely smashed it for us, thank you. We will send Katie an email tomorrow too, but Mark was so very grateful for all her assistance, even without asking, on the day.”

    Alice and Mark, Brede.

  • “I just can't BEGIN to tell you how pleased we were with all you and your magnificent team did for us at Kitty and Rhys's wedding on Saturday. The food, drink, service and general can-do attitude of everyone was a joy to behold, and I have just heard so many very complimentary comments about it all. The canapes were wonderful - utterly delicious, and as someone said, they just never stopped!! It made for such a happy Reception, out on the beautiful terrace in glorious weather. As for the main course, the lamb was succulent and mouthwatering - cooked to perfection and the couscous and vegetables went with it so well. I was bowled over, as I know many other people were. All served so quickly and efficiently by Katie's fantastic team of waiters and waitresses. The puddings were more delicious than I remember (and they were scrummy when I tasted them at your house!). I just can't enthuse enough about the excellent quality of everything, Sarah - I really will start repeating myself. ”

    Sheila, mother of the Bride

  • “Thank you for all you did to make our celebration on Sunday run so smoothly and especially for giving us the confidence to go ahead with the event.
    I cannot imagine what it was like for you behind the scenes, but for us and our guests it all seemed faultless. We have received nothing but strongly positive comments about the food and everything relating to it.

    Dick and Marilyn, Benenden

  • “Yesterday seems like a dream - it was a perfect day. We can't thank you enough for all your hard work, professionalism, cheerful confidence and totally fantastic food.
    It's taken us over 30 years to have a catered party and I was nervous - but you and the girls just made it perfect.”

    juliet iden green

  • “Thank you so much for all your help with the wedding, I couldn’t have done it without you! The food was fantastic and people are still talking about the lamb!”

    Rosie, Bride, Eridge

  • “We loved Sarah the moment we met her, she is so warm, assuring and her food is incredible. The food at our wedding was delicious and all the guests raved about it. Sarah also seamlessly organised everything we needed to hire, including the staff. I cannot recommend her enough if you’re getting married nearby.”

    Kate, Bride, Benenden

  • “A common theme in our thank you cards and comments from everyone was how utterly delicious the food was. Of course we can hardly disagree with them - it was all mouth wateringly tasty and beautifully presented, in many ways even better than what we remembered from our tasting (which was already a very high bar!).

    We will remember it all forever. What our guests did not see, however, was the way you went about creating such a feast for us all to enjoy - from our very first exchange of emails we knew we were onto a winner, and since then we’ve been constantly impressed and grateful for your creativity, enthusiasm, emotional support and ultimately your extremely high standard of cooking. We are so pleased to have found you and we are already thinking of excuses for our next party so we can work with you again (though of course as you say, it hardly feels like work, particularly from our perspective!). We were only sorry that we didn’t get to see you on the day itself - though we hear from reports that you were to be seen clearing up spillages on the dance floor - talk about going the extra mile! 

    Please also pass on our thanks to Katie’s team who worked tirelessly and professionally to make sure everyone was cared for. ”

    Klara and Will, Bride and Groom, Sissinghurst

  • “All of us want to thank you and your lovely team so much for the wonderful food and service you provided on Saturday. You have been so amazing to work with and we are so grateful for everything you have done - i also understand you went out and got more tonics so you must let us know how much we owe you. I know you will forward the staff bill on so please put that in and anything else we owe you for.

    If anyone ever wants any recommendations for a caterer you will be top of our list. Not just because of the amazing food but your wonderful helpful, friendly attitude which made life so easy for us. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.”

    Lesley, Mother of the Bride, Sevenoaks

  • “Finding a caterer for your wedding is a daunting task but from the very first email with Sarah we knew we had picked the perfect person for the job! She was so excited about our ideas and made excellent suggestions to help us piece together our menu.

    From the tasting right the way through until the day her enthusiasm, friendliness and attention to detail made the whole experience such a joy. Everyone commented on how delicious and beautifully presented the food was and Sarah and her staff worked so hard on the day to make everything perfect. Our guests from Yorkshire said it was the best beef they had ever tasted and they were right! We couldn't have asked for more, thanks for everything!”

    Katy, Bride, Benenden

  • “Working with Sarah on our wedding was beyond a dream.  We have received so many compliments on the sensational food and the care and detail that went into every canapé and course.  Sarah is not just a caterer, from the moment you meet Sarah she is planning how to make the day perfect for you.  

    Her staff are incredibly professional and the service is exceptional.  Her thoughtfulness of how to best use the venue or layout your order of the day just shows her attention to every detail and her personalisation per client. On the day itself I did not have a care in the world and that was because I knew exactly who was running it from behind the scenes.  I will be eternally grateful for the role Sarah played in our big day and for all of the laughter we shared planning it.  I could not recommend anyone more highly.  Thank you Sarah - it was a pleasure to work with you and I’m genuinely so sad it is over!”

    Charlotte, Bride, Benenden

  • “What can I say but a very huge thank you for all your amazing hard work on Saturday. All of our guests were raving about your food – it was just SO delicious. The staff were also just perfect. We thoroughly enjoyed our evening and I really can't praise you enough for everything that you did.”

    Angela, Marquee birthday party, Kent

  • “I just wanted to say a huge thank you for how amazingly delicious the food was! You are so talented and so many people came to tell me how great they thought it was. I can't thank you enough for helping to make mine and Sam's day so special”

    Sophie and Sam, Bride and Groom, Hawkhurst

  • “Thank you so much for providing such incredible food for our wedding day. The food at the wedding was beautiful – we were so happy with all of it.”

    Jemma and James, Bride and Groom, Hawkhurst

  • “We just wanted to say thank you for doing such a fantastic job at our party. The food was wonderful and we have had so many comments about it, especially the trio of puds! The whole thing ran so smoothly and it was so lovely not to have to put the tables and chairs away after the party. Well done to you all and please could you pass on our thanks to all the staff.”

    Amanda, Birthday Party, Tunbridge Wells

  • “Sarah was an absolute superstar when providing the food for our winter wedding. Sarah provided our canapes, a fabulous four course afternoon tea followed by our evening bites. The food was delicious and she was so friendly and flexible, making it an absolute pleasure to work with her.”

    Petrina, bride, Horsemonden

  • “"We cannot thank you enough for EVERYTHING!! The day went by so fast I can barely remember a single moment, althougth I do recall the beautiful palette and paint brush serving platters. They were amazing and so thoughtful. We have had lots of wonderful compliments and extremely high praise on every aspect of your efforts. You have been an absolute joy to work with from our very first meeting.... Thank you thank you thank you for making their day so incredibly special. You really are the BEST!!"”

    Susie, mother of the bride, Kent
