Our latest Vintage Party Reviews
"We held a part of my Sister's hen day here last week and it was a first class experience delivered by Clair and the team. The atmosphere with the music was lovely, and the ladies were very knowledgeable and helped us bring our ideas to life. We all thoroughly enjoyed releasing our inner 4 year old and cannot wait to see how our masterpieces turn out! The cream tea and cake that followed was absolutely delicious, and my vegan sister was very well catered for. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the Kitchen Front to anyone wanting to try something creative and fun. Thank you so much Ladies!!"
Lorna
"I contacted Clair to arrange a small hen party for my Sister-in-law (to be). Nothing was too much. Clair planned and executed an absolutely fantastic, relaxed and fun afternoon for the four of us. We genuinely couldn’t have asked for more, we got SO much value for our money. The amount of thought and skill that went in to every aspect of our day was just incredible! If you’re looking for a unique way to spend a special occasion, or if you just fancy a treat with a group of friends you MUST visit The Kitchen Front. I can’t wait to find a reason to go back!"
Cleo
"A lovely afternoon in The Kitchen Front. It was nice way to celebrate my birthday. Thank you Clair, Gemma and Tina for the afternoon tea and yummy chocolate birthday cake. I would thoroughly recommend The Kitchen Front for a fun morning/afternoon."
