KCC prepared a main course "plus" + for a dinner party that would have been a small event for KCC but was sizable for me. Peggy was easy to get in touch with, communicative, responsive, helpful in every way, and the food was superb, winning impromptu praise from virtually every guest up to and including, "This is the best dish I've ever had in my entire life! read more

I wrote a negative review about their quiche! yes a small dish but I did not like. and yes..I did not give a good review... but this easter cater, of ham soup and veg and dessert was just great so needed to post....one dish not liked but a dinner that was just great, read more

Yay Kitchen Chicks! I loved working with Peggy, she was so straightforward, helpful, and easy to get in touch with. Beyond that, Kitchen Chicks was the talk of our reception. We offered lobster in addition to other buffet items and the Kitchen Chicks team really delivered on food that was beautifully presented and delicious. Everything was so elegant and the food got rave reviews. I also appreciated that Peggy worked with us to customize our menu and make it perfect for our event. We even got to select our favorite types of pies! Thank you Kitchen Chicks, it was wonderful. read more

Amazing food! Had a small family gathering catered with heavy hors d'oeuvres and everything was amazing! Particular standouts were the spicy shrimp with basil, mini lobster rolls and ahi tuna. Would (and have!) recommend Kitchen Chicks to anyone looking for catering in the Kennebunkport area! read more

I was given the name name of kitchen chicks through a local and I explained I was having a dinner party for 25 in about a months time and needed food, chairs, linens, etc. Peggy explained they were a full service event company and could take care of it. Response times were slow with Peggy and Catie and I had to prompt them to see the menu, then the proposal and then getting info on tents, etc. I was told due to Covid, all of the events from 2020 were now pushed to 2021 and they were busy and tents weren't available. That was a common answer I received from them...They are busy with other events and they will get back to me. Considering I was also using them for my event, why wasn't I getting the same respect? Long story short, this went on for 3 weeks (me pushing to get anything confirmed, them being sooo busy) until the Friday before the dinner party (less than 1 week away) Peggy emails me and says it's too hard to find the tent and they won't be able to help us. I called her extremely upset and tried to ask about another solution and she shouted "NO, I'M DONE. I'M OUT." We had a not so nice exchange of words after that until I hung up on her and had to find another caterer for the dinner that was 6 days away. I did find someone who was lovely, professional and welcomed my business. I have thrown many parties in Los Angeles and I have never had such an unpleasant experience. This could have been handled by Peggy saying that they did not have the availability to handle a 25 person dinner party in one months time. PERIOD. Why say yes and then waste my time? So fair warning to anyone who is looking for a professional caterer for their event. read more

Kitchen Chicks Catering catered my wedding and guests are still raving about the food! One guest said it was the best wedding food she had ever had (and she it a bit of a foodie). My husband and I both had the beef tenderloin and it was incredible. The staff is extremely accommodating, my friends love my mashed potato recipe and it is a staple at our gatherings, and Kitchen Chicks agreed to make my recipe for the wedding. It was a little touch at my friends noticed. I can't say enough good things about the staff. The waitstaff was unbelievable. One of the guys was South American and fluent in Spanish which was extremely helpful since my mother in law's family is from Spain. At the rehearsal he was able to explain how to crack a lobster in Spanish for them. Everything exceeded my expectations. My family and I were very pleased and I would highly recommend using Kitchen Chicks. read more

Located one flight up from street level and on the first floor of the Grand Hotel is the latest location of Kitchen Chicks. Great spot to grab to go items as well as your daily coffee fix. They have breakfast sandwiches ready to go. There are cookies as well that looked delicious. The breakfast sandwich I had one morning was excellent! Simply egg and cheese on an english muffin. No complaints. I also grabbed a yogurt from the dairy case that contains portions of cheese as well. In the case are prepared items such as meatballs, grilled salmon, salads, other proteins and sides. Super friendly staff is glad to help you out. read more

Kitchen Chicks owner, Peggy Liversidge came highly recommend, however, this company proved to be a huge disappointment and waste of our time. After at least 3 phone conversations and follow up emails, I had still not received the proposal from Peggy. I did, however, get a lot of excuses from her like, "I'll get back to you tomorrow", "I'm still working on it", "Thank you for patience, you'll receive the proposal shortly" and after 2 weeks had passed since my first inquiry, I finally received it. The proposal estimate was ridiculous; the number of food stations to person attending ratio was so over the top excessive and expensive. It included so many additional fees that made it was hard to see what we were actually being quoted for. Alarmed, I spoke with our event coordinator who advised we scale some things back and promptly sent the modifications to Peggy the following business day. We were never acknowledged again. Myself and the coordinator followed up with her, sending at least 3 more emails and again, we were completely ignored. Thinking perhaps there was a problem with the email, we followed up with phone calls, asking for Peggy directly and were told to continue leaving voicemail messages for her. Clearly, Peggy does not consider it a priority to respond to those looking to hire them. Upon voicing my concerns and frustration with others, I learned this was not an isolated incident, as they too had attempted to hire KC and were not responded to. Obviously there are not enough "chicks in the kitchen" to run this business well! read more

If it were just the food, this would be 4-5 stars. Kitchen Chicks catered a wedding we just attended. The service was decent, though a couple workers were a little surly with us. The big issue was the quantity. In 2 of the 3 meals they catered (and the third is yet to happen), they ran out of food. For dinner at the reception, they served the portions at the buffet and they were paltry. When my wife, 36 weeks pregnant, went and asked for more food, the response was "we've already fed you." Everyone I spoke with left at least one of the meal hungry. For what I imagine the cost per head was, this was not nearly enough food. I remember living on the leftovers from my wedding for a good two weeks Update on the breakfast the morning after. They ran out of coffee in 15 minutes, and took 30 minutes to make more. One staff member was overheard saying she couldn't believe how much people were eating, that their country club clients never eat this much. So I guess if you want a real meal, go somewhere else. If you want the illusion of a meal, they're probably okay. So, good food, but not nearly enough of it. read more

There was a post about not enough food at a wedding last weekend. We were the hosts of that wedding, and guests raved about the healthy, fresh and beautiful food. One dish ran out, with the last table, replaced by another delicious one. We were very happy with the Kitchen Chicks. We give them five stars and would most certainly hire them again. read more

Kitchen Chicks catered our wedding at The Big House in Kennebunk, and the food was absolutely amazing. Our entire evening was delish from start to finish, and we heard myriad comments from our guests saying the same. Furthermore they were really easy to work with and the communication leading up to the event was great. We were very happy our wedding planner recommended them. They really captured the essence of what we wanted our wedding to be, and we are forever grateful! read more

Food is not all prepared by Kitchen Chicks. They outsource quite a bit. They also like to serve desserts similar to a chinese buffet. Quality is something they are not quite familiar with. read more

My friend and I ordered two sandwiches. After waiting an hour, I finally convinced my friend that we should ask about our sandwiches. We were told that they forgot to make them. No apology or amends. Never going back. read more

The amount of details going into planning and creating a wedding are innumerable. My (now) wife and I had virtually no idea where to start when it came to preparing for our big day. I cannot overstate how quickly and easily Peggy (the owner) put us at ease as we walked into her office for the first time. Not only was she able to help us with the specifics regarding the catering aspect of the wedding, she was also kind and creative enough to help us come up with some great ideas for different types of place settings, many of which we felt really embodied the spirit of marriage and wedding location. I could go on about the food for another eighteen pages but I'll save it for another time. Unbelievable doesn't even begin to cover it. As the groom I felt it was my duty to order all three of the entrees available at the wedding, I have been to a number of weddings in the past and the food is at best sub-par. My steak was the equivalent of a 5 star prime rib, tender, juicy and cooked to absolute perfection. Their take on salmon was both inspired and original and was truly a festivity in the mouth. Vegetables are considered boring by some, but when you have a multi-layered vegetable Napolean in a classic mornay sauce, little can be said except "magnificent." After eating what could easily have been considered a five star meal, I had convinced myself that my wife and I had received "special treatment," from the staff (which we did of course), I quickly came to find out that all of our guests were likewise flabbergasted at the incredible delight that was our wedding dinner. The served appetizers were in addition of course, perfect. In closing, Peggy was an absolute wonder to work with. From day one she was and is consistently cool, calm and collected (even when my wife may not have been). We cannot thank her and Kitchen Chicks Catering enough for the stellar job they did to make our fantastic day all the better. read more

Spot on! Hard to get as they are so in demand. They catered a rehearsal dinner at BPYC for our family. Lobster Bake menu was perfect. Service was impeccable and personable. Peggy and Sarah kept the whole event in order and rolling. They are calm and collected. Thanks for helping us for this memorable family event. read more

Kitchen Chicks catered my daughters wedding. Everything was wonderful, the food and the service. We used Kitchen Chicks as our wedding planner as well and they coordinated everything perfectly. read more

Kitchen Chicks catered our rehearsal dinner and wedding in August this year. From the beginning, they listened to all our wishes in a wedding.We live out of state so we were nervous about everything coming together. Kitchen chicks was not only our caterer but our event coordinator. They managed all our various vendors and helped with securing a tent, bathroom trailer, generators, etc. It took a lot of pressure off of us to be able to focus on other areas of wedding planning. For the rehearsal dinner, we had a lobster bake. All the appetizers, sides and especially the lobster were a HUGE hit. They made all of our wishes come true. I was scrambling at the last minute to get some things completed, and Sara Spang who worked as our coordinator made everything so smooth and allowed me to focus on actually enjoying the day. We received SOOO many compliments on the food. Everyone said it was the best food they have had at a wedding. We would definitely recommend using Kitchen Chicks to cater for you! read more

Where do I begin, the Kitchen Chicks catered my wedding and brunch the following morning this past August. To start with the food was really wonderful. The appetizers were delicious, and plentiful and the entrees were fresh and well done. People raved about the chicken, the salmon and all of the sides! Now a few months after the wedding a guest recently told me he was still thinking about the roasted potatoes! I would say they were a hit! After the tasting I had no doubts the food would be great. But where I was most impressed was with their overall professionalism. event knowledge, attention to detail and helpful staff. My family hosted my wedding of about 240 guests in my backyard with out an actual event planning company to help us along the way. When needed Kitchen Chicks was full service, they helped with layout of our tent, bar services, coordination with other vendors and day of they were a full service event team and accomplished service staff. They truly helped turn my backyard into the wedding of my dreams. If you are looking for a full service team with a lot of experience to make your wedding day happen I would highly recommend Kitchen Chicks! read more

I contacted this firm to cater a lunch for about 25 people after a memorial service in Kennebunk well in advance of the date (September) and was told that the date was free . The woman Kelly said that she would send me menus and a price. I specifically requested a staff member to help set up, serve and clean up. Three-four weeks went by and I didn't hear anything. I then called several times and finally received a call back by the owner Peggy Liversidge who said that had been very busy with large events. We talked over the menu and she sent me via email a couple of days later (now 1 week before the event) the menu which was incorrect. I emailed her back to ask her to correct it. I didn't hear for 2 days and called again. Finally Wednesday evening at 6 (for Saturday) I was told it could be "drop off" only and that I could look for another caterer. I replied that I would have appreciated more advance notice and received a reply back that was at least 2 pages saying something to the effect that it didn't matter who I was, that she was short-staffed, and that even if I was Obama she could not help me. She basically told me that she had "huge events" that took precedence and that I should go elsewhere. The email is so rude and unprofessional that I would never consider using them again and would never recommend them. I then called HB Provisions who immediately, cheerfully said they would help despite the short notice. read more
