Matthew Deane5 Oct 2025

Booked for Birthday party

Kush was friendly and worked really hard to get it all set up. The food was excellent, and there was plenty of it. A good selection and the option to add a4-person gluten free platter really helped. Excellent service, excellent product!

Booked for Other Event

Munchkin Kitchen were a pleasure to plan my event with. We had a small corporate event where we wanted to reward the employees for their hard work and increase their wellbeing. We used Munchkin Kitchen to create a sweet treat grazing table. They were incredibly professional and were in depth with their questions about allergies/preferences so that the grazing table could be tailored to our needs. When they arrived, they came in, set up and were out in a timely manner. No disruption to our normal work day, so fast and efficient, you wouldn't have known they were here! They created a wonderful display of an array of different sweet treats. We couldn't be more grateful for their efforts. Would definitely recommend and use again!
