EXCELLENT Based on 17 reviews Joanna Francis2025-08-28Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A massive thank you to Hazel and her team for providing the food for my daughter’s 1st Birthday celebration. Hazel you are amazingly accommodating especially as you were on holiday prior to the event. Your communication is straight forward and you answered all my queries. The birthday girl’s guests enjoyed your food as did I. Thank you so much again, you will hear from us again. There’s another 1st Birthday celebration to plan for next year!

Jo Sy2025-08-23Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We hired Yate’s Kitchen for a family party in July 2025. The team were a joy to partner with from planning to the end of the actual day. Very professional, punctual and made the feeding of 50 people appear seamless. The food was excellent and many of my family complimented the team. My only ask is for them to consider making desserts! Michelle Cheetham2025-08-04Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. What a find! I stumbled upon Yates Kitchen by chance after a Google search, and I am so glad that I did. I was looking for an authentic Caribbean caterer for my father's garden party and my local restaurants were just not up to scratch. What a breath of fresh air Hazel and her team were! From start to finish our experience was fantastic. The tram arrived in good time to set up, which they did calmly and without disturbance to the party going on around them. And this despite the challenging location of a marquee with no running water nearby, and limited options for electricity. Nothing fazed them, and all was sorted. And so to the food. Well, what can I say? Having been raised eating Jamaican food cooked by mum and grandma I can genuinely say that Hazel's food was every bit as good. Fresh ingredients, just the right spice level and not at all oily. Leftovers were packaged as take aways for guests, nothing was wasted. Really , really couldn't fault the service I have to say. A huge thank you to all at Yates Kitchen for all that they did to make dad's event one to remember. We will certainly book you again for any future events. Darren Bradshaw2025-07-01Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Delicious food. It was short notice, but they went out of their way to accommodate our needs and delivery date and time. Yasmine Bramble2025-06-02Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We first discovered Yates Kitchen when they catered our wedding, and we were completely blown away - not just by the food, which was absolutely delicious, but by the warmth, professionalism, and attention to detail that Hazel and her team brought to the day. Hazel is truly a gem; she has such a personal touch and genuinely cares about making every event special. Since then, we've used Yates Kitchen for multiple other events - family celebrations, parties, and more - and every time the service has been nothing short of exceptional. The quality and presentation of the food are consistently amazing, and Hazel always goes above and beyond to tailor things to exactly what we need. We've recommended Yates Kitchen to family and friends, and without exception, they've had the same fantastic experience. It's rare to find a catering company that combines heart, reliability, and culinary excellence the way Yates Kitchen does. Highly, highly recommend! We wouldn't go anywhere else. Leia T2025-05-12Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Thank you so much to Hazel & the Yates Team for providing the most spectacular food service for our Wedding. The staff were all so friendly, kind, efficient, professional and the quality of the food was amazing! Our guests could not stop talking about how delicious the food was. The menus were easy to select from and versatile in options, which was helpful when it came to our guests who required vegan, vegetarian or halal options. It was a pleasure to work directly with Hazel, who worked hard to ensure that everything went smoothly and to plan. I highly recommend their services and hope to work together again in future! ❤️ Angela Guojah2025-05-06Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great food.
