Truly fabulous

From the moment we chose Kalm Kitchen the team were great in helping us plan for our special day. We loved the opportunity for the tasting evening at our venue too. A great opportunity to experience the quality of dishes and service before our big day.

As for our special day...the team were amazing and we have had so many comments from family and friends about how amazing the canapés and meal were.
The service was outstanding.

With special thanks to Helen in terms of preparing for the day and Hayley for leading the team on the day to ensure it all ran smoothly.

Amazing food for our wedding

We hired Kalm to do the food for our wedding day and wow they did an amazing job. They set up the tables in the morning, served drinks at the reception during the meal, and did the sit-down food & late night food too

Everything was done incredibly efficiently and with the utmost professionalism and we were very impressed with their level of organisation (even including minor details such as taking flowers from our florist for the trays of canapes to keep a consistent theme). The food itself was delicious and incredibly well presented and many people commented on it. On the whole the communication from the Kalm team was very good as well and we would thoroughly recommend them

The most exceptional food and service

From start to finish Kalm provided the most attentative and wonderful service. From our first meeting to our tasting the the day the staff ensured all our needs and wants were met and considered. We had some bespoke requirements to fit our rheme and these were thought about and executed. Our guests are still talking about our food today and it gets constantly remembered as one of the highlights of the day. Everything from the exquisitely presented canapés to our wonderful sharing desserts were just mouth watering and the presentation of everything beyond our dreams. So many people have enquired about who did our food and they now come with full recommendation
Thank you Kalm and the team

Exceptional food and service from a company that were genuinely passionate about our wedding and took pride in making it special.

Kalm kitchen catered for our wedding and were absolutely amazing. From the tasting, early stages of organising to the actual day, Kalm kitchen staff were calm, helpful and attentive and the food was incredible on the day and beautifully presented. There seemed to be a genuine passion and attention to detail throughout the staff and this was noticed by our guests. With so much going on in the lead up to the wedding and on the day it was really nice to be able to fully enjoy the day without worry. Everyone said how lovely the kalm kitchen team was and how incredible the food was. Thank you for giving us such a beautiful and memorable day we couldn't have asked for more!

Disappointed on the day

Kalms brochure and tasting session sold us a dream! However the quality of and presentation on the day where a real let down. For example in the tasting session I received a full burrata, beautifully adored with peaches etc on my wedding day a was presented with a third of a burrata with tiny slices of peach thrown on top. My main wasn't charred it was burnt and bitter to the taste. The mains were also substantially smaller than the tasting session. When communicating with Kalm they seemed to not be able to keep on top of changed made which led to misleading information about pricing.
The service on the day was incredibly slow even though we had paid for an extra chef.
They say they cater for all dietary requirements but this can come at an extra cost.
Over all they sell a dream but couldn't deliver on the day leaving the groom and I disheartened.
On a positive their patisserie bar was amazing.
However Not Value For Money.

Incredible food and fantastic organisation.

Kalm Kitchen catered for my bespoke wedding. They helped me every step of the way to choose what would be appropriate for my event even with a challenging venue to cater in. My husband had some serious health needs which they had no problem in catering for. The food was absolutely delicious and the service was impeccable. I would highly recommend working with them for your event or wedding.

Wedding Catering

Kalm did the catering for our wedding at Micklefield Hall. They were exemplary from start to finish and food got so many compliments. All the team are super professional and nothing was too much to ask! We were so happy with the food on the day, and the patisserie bar in particular was a big highlight! Thanks for everything!

Amazing food and staff

As a couple who love their food this was such an important part of our big day and Kalm absolutely nailed it! Four months later we’re still getting compliments on it. The date night where you can sample the menu and wines before was amazing. The food and presentation on the day was unreal, it was definitely everything we dreamed of. The staff were also amazing at helping us to plan and then keep everything on track on the day. We can’t thank them enough!

Can I give a 6 star review?

Our venue changed caterers last year and although slightly nervous about this, the tasting completely calmed us down. The team were amazing to work with in the lead up to the day and very responsive. But the food is just out of this world. The presentation of the food is incredible and the staff were impeccable. We even had a private canapé tray brought out to us whilst taking couple photos. All our guests loved the food and those with dietary requirements were relieved and impressed with the range in choice. The kebab stall at the end of the night was so cool and loved having a quirky option for people to enjoy in the evening. Could not fault Kalm and would highly recommend them.

Wonderful food and service

Kalm Kitchen catered for our wedding in London in 2020. It wasn't the big wedding we originally planned, but, my god, it was so much better than we could've imagined. They created a bespoke italian themed feast for us and from start to finish, the Kalm Kitchen team made everything seamless, easy and delicious. We couldn't have had a better day and are so grateful to everyone at KK for making it so special.
