Food was great, Lemon Drizzle was Spot on!!

Marie was brilliant from start to finish. She knew exactly what we wanted for my mums 70th tea party, and delivered some really nice handmade foody delights!! Everything fresh, sausages rolls were more than nice, the whole food package was great, but the cakes were something else. Really, really tasty, the lemon drizzle cake was fantastic, absolutely spot on. Good value for money with excellent service, you can't go far wrong with "Me Old Vintage China".

Absolutely Perfect!

Me old Vintage China delivered beautiful vintage teapots, cups and saucers, side plates and milk jugs and sugar bowls for an event we were having at a hotel after my mother’s funeral. The hotel we’re going to serve tea from flasks with plain white cups and saucers and as my mother loved beautiful cups and saucers we thought this would be a fitting tribute. When we arrived Marie had set up all the cups and saucers and teapots on the tables and everyone was so surprised. They looked beautiful and all said what a lovely little touch it was. At the end of the event Marie took everything away and it was such good value. I would definitely use her again. What a lovely lady x

Great Attention to Detail - Perfect !!

Marie provided the buffet food for two events that we held to thank our volunteers for the assistance they provide to the Parish Council.
With so many attending to worry about, the days leading up to previous events have been rather fraught to say the least !
Marie took that worry away through her professionalism and perfect communication !
A total of 90 people attended over the two events - and d’you know what ??? Not one moan about the food or the organisation of the event !
Already booked for next year .... would thoroughly recommend ‘Me Old Vintage China’ to anyone considering holding an event.
Thanks Marie !

The food was excellent.

The food was very good although Marie didn't always communicate with me to a great degree. Her response to emails and telephone calls left something to be desired. The buffet was for a funeral so, I guess, I may have been feeling a little vulnerable. The sound of children on the recorded phone message didn't exactly inspire confidence either!! For this reason and bearing in mind that Marie was coming from Herne Bay I was concerned that she might not be able to turn up.

I have messaged Andrew privately to apologise for not always getting back it him immediately. Moving forward I will respond to messages and emails more swiftly. Funerals are a very difficult time I appreciate and I try to be as helpful and caring as I can but I do realise I should have responded quicker and no Andrew you were not being vulnerable it is a sensitive time. I do work from home and have 3 children but I will now change this recorded message as I made it many moons ago. I have learned from this review and appreciate your honesty and will take on board your comments.

Excellent!

We were extremely happy with Marie and the delicious lunch she prepared for our group of 60 hungry cyclists. From the 1st email contact to the event itself Marie was efficient, helpful and cheery, a delight to work with. The food was delicious, and served on lovely vintage plates. I had to ask her for the brownie recipe she used as they were so yummy! Thanks Marie, if we are passing near your area again, you'll be hearing from us!!! All the best, Amy Favieres

A lovely country garden wedding

Marie cottoned on to what we were looking for from the word go and was willing to work with us to achieve that. She shared our vision and her ideas for display and decoration were right on the button.
The food was excellent and many guests commented on it unbidden. There was certainly plenty of it.
There were hiccups, however, largely because we all underestimated the number of staff that would be needed to cater for so many people, we’ve both learnt from this. And it didn't help that Marie struggled the whole day with a leg injury. She was clearly in great pain, but was determined to make the day special for my daughter.
In that she succeeded. The happy couple and their guests had a wonderful time and Marie's team kept smiling throughout.
I’ve a big birthday on the horizon, I hope she’ll come back.
