Working with The Little Deli has made such a difference to our day to day running. The meals are simple, well thought through and genuinely suited to young children, which gives us real confidence in what we’re serving. Menus are clear, communication is straightforward and everything arrives exactly as expected, which takes a lot of pressure off our team. The meals feel wholesome without being overly complicated, and the children enjoy them. It’s reassuring to know that the food supports children’s development while still being familiar and appealing.
