Luncheonette review

We couldn't be happier with Christian at Luncheonette, from the beginning of the process right up until the big day, Christian was really responsive, approachable and adaptable. He asked us to think of a meal that means a lot to us, we picked Porchetta as we had lived in Italy and enjoyed the dish many a time together. He made it to perfection and by creating a dish with meaning to us, it felt very personal.
The side dishes were so full of flavour and variation and complemented the mains perfectly. A lot of our guests said it was the best wedding food they had ever had (and we of course agreed!). The vegetarian option, aperitifs and late evening food were not just an afterthought and we're all beautiful, delicious and considered.

When we did a pre wedding tasting together Christian was professional, friendly and adaptable. Listening to what we said and working with us to help create what was our perfect menu for the day.

On the day Christian and his team were cool, calm and efficient.

We would highly recommend Luncheonette if you are looking for high quality, bespoke catering with a team who are friendly, professional and efficient.

Lovely food!

Christian and the team at Luncheonette did a fantastic job catering our wedding. Communication was a bit slow at times in the planning stages, but on the day the food was delicious, plentiful and enjoyed by everyone.

Amazing family feast wedding dinner

Christian and his team provided us with an incredible selection of canapés, meats, side dishes and veggie options, served as a family dining style wedding dinner. We had some great feedback from our guests regarding the food. We wanted our wedding food to be non-traditional and Christian knew exactly what style to deliver for us. Would highly recommend Luncheonette for your wedding catering!

Top praise for a casual garden party wedding

Christian and the team at Luncheonette were brilliant. 1000% recommend. From the initial discussion to menu confirmation happened within 48 hours and was probably the simplest thing to sort for our wedding (and that's saying a lot!) The food was amazing, the chef super personable and the clean up earned top marks. One guest even said...'you've found a real gem with your caterer!'

All together perfect

Our wedding catering was perfect and Christian and his team were professional, courteous and responsive from day 1, taking on board our specific menu requests and being open to changes every step of the way.

We were nervous about selecting a wedding caterer as we didn't have a word of mouth recommendation and actually went through many different lines of enquiry before choosing Luncheonette. It's a big part of the day and you have to be confident in your caterer. Christian made it as stress-free as I think possible !

We were really pleased with the tasting menu we sampled. In fact it exceeded our expectations, and on the day itself, the food received a lot of compliments from our wedding guests.

Christian and his team worked really hard to ensure our day was all together perfect and it was very much appreciated.

Excellent caterers who can meet any requirements.

Luncheonette went the extra mile by serving an excellent full meal in a venue with no access to a kitchen or even a sink.

Perfect Wedding BBQ

We approached luncheonette after our wedding venue recommended them. The menus looked incredible but we were keen to have a casual breakfast, Christian suggested a BBQ which they had done before and ultimately suited our venue set up and budget much better. They were so flexible and easy to work with, a real bonus when planning a wedding during Covid times! On the day the team were phenomenal and the food simply amazing, the top table were even treated to a delicious steak which couldn't have gone down better! We opted for the Eastern BBQ menu which was a perfect choice as it offered something a little bit different but still versatile enough to satisfy everyone. My only disappointment was (as bride and groom) being too busy to really sit down and enjoy every mouth-full, myself and my husband keep saying how much we'd love to eat it again! I cannot recommend Luncheonette enough, whatever you're after they can probably deliver it in great style. My worst fear was for people to walk away from our wedding breakfast unsatisfied or hungry, I know for a fact this didn't happen and everyone was so full of praise for the food. Thank you Christian and your team for a great service! We hope we can use you again.

Mr Bun Lee

Very special meal.

the Luncheonette team managed to cook a 3 course meal with no facilities in our garden. All served flawlessly. Food was absolutely delicious and looked great.

Really cute canapés, beautiful starters and mains to share on the table.

Set up and clean down was easy with no mess left.

Couldn’t recommend them more.

Flawless service, amazing food.

Really impressed with the summer BBQ we held at our family home in Altrincham. Food was flawless, staff friendly and over all the total journey through out was slick. Would highly recommend them. Worth every penny.

Very delicious

Christian helped a lot with constructing our menu and listening to our requests. We chose Luncheonette from the food pics looking good and the fact the menu wasn't pre-set and would be made personal to us. Our guests said it was some of the best wedding food they'd ever had. So we are where very happy :)

Amazing - highly recommend

We are so glad we chose Luncheonette for our wedding day. We went for a BBQ with flatiron steak, flatbreads, chimichurri, chicken, halloumi and the most fantastic sides and salads, as well as a ‘nibbles’ table for our guests as they arrived.

Everyone raved about the food and said their only regret was that they couldn’t eat more! The food was all absolutely delicious - with an extra special surprise for our top table too.

Christian and the team were spot on. Would highly recommend!

Amazing ‘posh’ BBQ

We contacted Luncheonette / Christian after seeing their food on instagram at the venue we chose for our wedding .. it looked perfect and was totally us.
We went for canapé reception, informal sit down BBQ .. with steak, chicken, flatbreads and salad table and it was insane. Followed by simple one pot dessert.
They stuck around and did a more traditional bbq for our evening guests of amazing burgers and sausages.
Food was plentiful ! Everything on the day perfectly executed, the whole team were amazing and couldn’t of done enough.
He even threw us in a surprise. (Which I won’t spoil) that was amazing touch for me and Laura .
Process was simple we said what we wanted in a phone consultation and he created a menu .. we went to taste in his home venue and didn’t need to change a thing.
Well worth it and amazing feedback from all our guests too.
Thanks Christian :)

Wedding for 120 guests

Christian and Dan were absolutely amazing to work with and the food they produced for our wedding was faultless. Our guests and still speaking about it to this day. They made over 100 mains of cod which was cooked to perfection, the pastry in the desert was beautiful and even the rosemary whipped butter for the bread was amazing. A lot of our guests said it was the best food they've ever had at a wedding! The presentation of the food was very contemporary and the canapés looked like little pieces of art!

They were a great team to work with, listening to all our requests and going above and beyond to please. I couldn't recommend them enough!
