Russell's communication speed was second to none and along with a lovely proposal assured us we were in safe hands. The food was exceptionally presented.

I honestly cannot recommend Shropshire Hills Catering enough! The food was not only INCREDIBLE, but…read moreMatt was just so friendly and accommodating for the whole time we were there. I'm vegetarian (and food options can sometimes be slightly hit-or-miss), but the food Matt served for each meal was just soooo flavoursome and delicious. On our last night, Matt made such a huge effort and threw us a little party with a fire-pit along with dinner and drinks (with the help of his lovely son George) and it was such a brilliant evening. 10/10 and would highly recommend

The booking process was easy and if we had any questions Matt came back with an answer straight away, the day of the BBQ there was plenty of delicious meats, salads and bread rolls and we could have fed another 20 people. Matt's attitude and customer service was second to none, really attentive and could not do enough for us, and would not accept any help when it came to clearing everything away. Regardless of the typical British BBQ weather (rain, hail, snow and sunshine) everyone really enjoyed their lunch. A massive thank you to Matt and his team @ Shropshire Hills Catering. Would recommend this company to all. Thank you again Matt, will certainly be using your services again in the future.

Some of their sandwhich prices are pretty expensive if your feeling like you dont just want the ordinary tomato and cheese. I would recommend brunches if you want to grab a quick sandwhich they fill them pretty well and they are a reasonable size.
Had a sandwich from Brunches in Milton Keynes shopping centre for the first time in years today. I…read moreused to go there quite often (we're talking like 15 years ago) and I have to say it's not as good as I remembered it to be. I asked for garlic mayonnaise with my bacon and salad sandwich and the lady making the sandwich clearly didn't know which condiment pot the garlic mayo was in so she literally stuck her nose in the pot to check if it was garlic which was most off putting to say the least! Also I ordered two sandwiches and I'm not sure if she had some kind of dementia but I had to repeat every single ingredient of both sandwiches, sometimes twice, and then when we got to the till she had to ask me what I had ordered! The filling on the bacon sandwich was a bit sparse and the bacon wasn't as crisp as it should of been, the other sandwich however (crayfish) was packed to overflowing so perhaps I was just unlucky. The sandwich that I had was nice but nothing special, it just didn't have that premium quality feel that I always associated with Brunches. On the plus side the prices are reasonable for freshly made sandwiches and they have an excellent selection of ingredients and breads which you can combine in any way you like so your sandwich is exactly as you want it. I'd recommend them if you just want a quick bite to eat and you're bored of Pret or ready made sandwiches.

Excellent Conference venue!…read more I went to Highgate House on an inn residential weekend. (It's the thing that students go to in order to get 3 Qualifying Sessions so you can eventually become a Barrister.) The room was lovely. It had a soft bed, a little too soft - it swallowed me every time I sat, clean bathroom with tub and shower, good lighting overall with a light around the bathroom mirror, an old fashioned hair dryer, TV, ironing board attached to the wall with an iron on the floor just chilling etc. The room are split all over the compound, the one I was allocated was above the Reception area. The grounds itself are beautiful and well maintained. The various conference rooms are well stocked with water - both still and sparkling, bowls of sweets, pens, notepads, magnetic walls, highlighters, calculators, tape... I was fascinated. The food every day was fantastic. Breakfast, lunch and dinner were all fantastic - absolutely no complaints.

No.), and no member of staff knew how it worked either; the plughole in the sink didn't work properly and there was a dirty towel. Oh - and none of the staff knew how the door locks worked (fyi: you pull the handle UP to lock it). While we sat at breakfast a man from another room complained that his toilet was not attached to the floor! Haha - oops. Hmm. It's a shame because the location is lovely and they're getting the food and ambience part so right. I'm intrigued as to how they got five AA stars.

Verity, from the moment you took our booking I knew that we were in a real experts hands. I want to thank you for making me feel so at ease handing over our big day to you and the team. Karen who looked after the operations on the day - could not have been done enough and made sure everything happened at the right time and in the right place. I have to thank the chefs, Our guests are still raving about the canapes, the breakfast and the evening BBQ. It was amazing to have both of our family under one roof, we had so much fun getting ready for the big day. Hearing the family ooohhh and aaaah whenever they walked into their beautiful bedrooms was so heart warming. the kids were playing on the grounds and the men were sat in the beautiful private garden easing their nerves with a glass of bubbly Once ready for the ceremony the nerves hit, walking down their amazing staircase with wobbly jelly legs from the nerves (not the prosecco) seemed like a crazy idea but I did it - I walked into their beautiful hall where my handsome husband to be was waiting for me. After the ceremony the days just flowed. One thing that blew me away the most is that the venue actually went out and bought a new wedding cake for me after mine arrived in pieces. This venue is totally in control and will deal with any situation in a calm and professional manner - they are truly amazing! Thank you again Team Chicheley!

What let his meal down was the fact it had been microwaved be being brought to our table, resulting in part warm and park cool food. Dessert was no different.
