"I just wanted to thank you for the lovely tea yesterday. I've had so many messages and comments from guests today about yesterday afternoon. The tables were all beautifully decorated; the food was delicious, and the constant supply of nice strong tea was much appreciated! You really did make what could have been a difficult afternoon, very relaxed and uplifting" Sue - December 2024 (Vintage Afternoon Tea with service for 25 guests)
"Thank you both so much for an absolutely fantastic 60th birthday party on Saturday. I had the best day, it was absolutely perfect for me!! The tea was so delicious...so many compliments on your scones...everything else too of course. The tables looked so pretty. It really was such a treat to just sit and relax with all my friends and know that both of you had everything under control" Kate - October 2024 (Vintage Afternoon Tea with service for 24 guests)
"Thank you both so much for the absolutely amazing afternoon tea today!! We only have 4 pieces of cake left.....morning coffee tomorrow. We all voted that they were the very best scones we've ever had which includes festive afternoon tea at The Ritz. Oh and the strawberry jam 😋😋😋. We all thoroughly enjoyed everything, (the children) 6 & 5 ate everything in their children's boxes.....new to scones you've set the bar high for these youngsters 😂😂. It was great fun setting it all out but I am looking forward to enjoying your full service in October" Kate - August 2024 (Afternoon Tea Boxes for 5 adults & 2 children)
"Thank you so much for the sandwiches for my daughter's hen do on Saturday. Everyone commented how lovely they were. A big thank you" Kay - August 2024 (Sandwich Boxes/Platters)
"Many, many thanks for the delicious Afternoon Tea that you prepared for my 60th birthday last Tuesday. It was all absolutely delicious and we enjoyed it very much. The feedback from our guests was also very complimentary. The scones were amazing and I also particularly enjoyed the lemon drizzle cake. The savoury muffins and veggie quiche were very tasty, as were all the sandwiches. The Victoria sponge was a beautiful centre piece and I have been decadently enjoying the few remaining slices for breakfast these past few days! Again, thank you very much!" Teresa - July 2024 (Birthday Afternoon Tea for 15 guests)
"We had (a Cream Tea) delivered on Saturday....utterly delicious! I love this idea...a Summer's Cream Tea! Especially in the sunshine - will sneak another before June is out! Helen - June 2024 (Cream Tea)
"What a great choice Giddy Flamingo was to cater for our birthday party! Sarah and Jo were very brave in taking on this event for 200 guests and we are full of admiration for the way they organised everything, paying close attention to all the necessary details, visiting the venue several times and liaising with us throughout the planning stages. The event went perfectly and our guests were delighted with the delicious yummy treats for tea and service with a smile - this despite the ladies having been up since the early hours to ensure that everything was freshly baked and prepared. There were so many positive comments afterwards! We are immensely grateful to both of them, will use them again and would recommend without hesitation" Priscilla - April 2024 (Birthday Vintage Buffet for 200+ guests)
" I just wanted to thank you both for the wonderful Mothers Day Afternoon Tea last weekend in Priston Village Hall. We all really enjoyed the atmosphere and the wonderful food. Your gentle but attentive service was also very much appreciated. I can only imagine how much time and effort it takes to organise, market and then produce such a lovely afternoon tea event and hope that you managed to raise a decent amount for your charity of choice. I really enjoyed being "treated" for Mother's Day and wanted to say a big thank you and well done from me" Sam - March 2024 (Mother's Day Vintage Tearoom)
" Absolutely superb service! Excellent communication from first contact, Sarah was so helpful and accommodating. We had the afternoon tea/spa package for a group of 8 of us. There was a great choice of package, the food was tasty and fresh, especially loved the homemade scones and Victoria sponge. We were really impressed with the service from Helen, the therapist who completed the spa treatment session. Again, her communication prior to the event was so thoughtful and helpful, she went out of her way to accommodate one of our party who had a allergy. So personable, friendly and informative, we really enjoyed the session and quality Neals Yard products which she used. I couldn't recommend Giddy Flamingo and Helen more, both provided such excellent service and at a really reasonable price. Thank you!" Lauretta - February 2024 ('Spa' and Tea package)
"Just thought we'd write to say thank you for helping give us the perfect day on Saturday. The room looked beautiful and the food was delicious. We thought you might like to know in particular that our vegan couple remarked that they'd never been so well catered for at an event before. They're planning their wedding soon so we've given them your details" Dave and Jade - November 2023 (Wedding Vintage Afternoon Tea)
"(I would like)....to properly say thank you for such a brilliant spread you put on for us on Monday. Not just the food, but the way you organised and co-ordinated everything - it just made it so much easier for me. So I wanted to say "thank you" and how much I (and the rest of the family) really appreciate what you did for us" Paul - October 2023 (Afternoon Tea Buffet for 40)

"Oh my goodness, thank you both so very much for the absolutely perfect afternoon tea! Delicious (and perfectly shaped!) sandwiches and scrumptious cakes all presented so beautifully. I felt as though you had tailored the event to fit in with my exact vision of how I wanted Mama's send off to be and I know she would have been delighted. The guests all remarked on how wonderful it was. You were instrumental in keeping an eye on each and every one of us and assessing needs, top ups and offering tasty treats to those who were seated. It certainly didn't go unnoticed. You both completely took all the pressure off us, were so gentle and kind and we will always be very thankful to you for this" Charlotte - March 2023 (Wake Vintage Buffet for 60 Guests)
"It was all as delicious as it looks! The attention to detail (such as homemade chutneys and carefully chosen local cheeses) were much appreciated and we had lots of compliments from our guests. The ham was excellent with a beautiful flavour, it went down very well. (My friend) loved the apple tart particularly and so did I - we preferred it to any other apple tart we have ever had... The potato salad was also a winner. Thank you Sarah and Jo. We won't hesitate to book Giddy's for our next gathering" Clare - March 2023 (Cold Buffet)

"What an amazing company you have and what amazing people you are! From the onset, you were instrumental in making Dan's proposal to De, the most perfect day. You were willing to deliver the engagement picnic to a Boating Station to meet Dan to enable him to take their lunch on the river. After a confusion, you stayed and waited for them to arrive and informed the boating company they would be late. Your care and thoughtfulness made everything work out. Dan proposed on two knees to keep his balance on the boat! And of course, De said YES!" Jane - July 2021 (Engagement Afternoon Tea Box)
