We used Salt & Slate for our daughter’s christening party and they were fantastic. The food was delicious and the team were so helpful to all our guests. I’d definitely recommend them ☺️

I booked Salt and Slate for our work Christmas party at Clockwise Bromley and was super impressed with the variety of food, the presentation and the exceptional service. It was safe to say Food was definitely a highlight with everyone raving about the taste and quality of the food. Could not recommend this gem and excellent service by Oliver, enough.

The coffee is always good. One can sit outside in the Sun. Sadly now it seems to have closed.

We used Oliver at Salt and Slate for a summer ball in a marquee at our sports ground in Hayes Hill. Oliver listened to our needs and produced bespoke ideas at a reasonable cost for canapes and two course dinner. He responded positively when we had to change our plans during the process. On the night Oliver and his serving team couldn't have been more helpful and the food was perfect for the event receiving many compliments. Oliver also worked alongside our marquee supplier Cameo producing a joint package at a discount. Salt and Slate's serving staff were very professional and positive on the night and helped us set up the tables. All this service at a competitive price. Would thoroughly recommend Salt and Slate for your catering requirements. They not only gave first class service for a 100 covers outside summer ball but also supplied a superb lunch for all our 15 past Presidents in our clubhouse. Need catering? Call Oliver and Salt n Slate. Thank you for making our special 121st anniversary ball really 'special' Stuart P President Old Wilsonians Association

Oli catered for a Christening I organised. The client requested sliced beef and sides for 23. The beef was cooked to perfection. Portions were all very generous. I will happily use Oli again for an event. I picked up a coffee and sausage roll when booking and that was also top notch. Oli knows good food.

Amazing frozen range and great atmosphere in the deli. So easy to make at home and verryyyyy delicious! Travelled all the way from Lewisham to grab Valentine's dinner for two, and it did not disappoint (I have no cooking skills). Can't recommend enough!!

Great spot for a coffee, bacon sandwich and not forgetting the delicious sausage rolls. Wonderful hospitality & service. Nice to chat to Oliver who always greets the customers coming through the door with a smile. Look forward to returning as my new local café. Thank you!
