Delighted to have Karyn there.

First time we did this event - very difficult to accurately predict attendance. Big thank you to Karyn for being there and I hope she felt the day was worth attending. The weather was extremely hot, must have been really difficult working in all that heat!

Utterly Amazing

Karyn was the consummate professional delivering a fantastic offering of delicious crepes and amazing toasties at our Cultural Evening school event. The kids and adults alike loved her food with a range of price points to cater for all budgets and we had loads of great feedback. Karyn was super communicative in the run up to the event and we definitely would love to have them back for the next time.

The Tin Canteen was an absolute super hit!

Karyn was the sweetest lady ever. Everyone enjoyed the crepes. The service was outstanding.
I would highly recommend the tin Canteen for any event. It made my daughter’s 18th birthday super special.
It fit neatly in our drive way

Amazing, perfect for our evening wedding food!

Communication was great, the team worked well together on the day. They were all incredibly polite and gave great service. The food was just as we wanted with many options for our guests. Served quickly and stayed throughout the evening meaning guests could go up when they fancied. Thank you so much you were perfect.
