What our clients say:

Working with Egg Soldiers has really helped us to think differently about our offer, the team immersed themselves into our brand and sought out the latest food trends and techniques that worked for our business.

It absolutely isn't a one size fits all approach. The experience is a collaborative one and we have really enjoyed the relationship that has formed working on our last two menu projects.

Jenny McPhee

Brand Director – The Alchemist

"Loungers simply wouldn't be the business it is today without the huge Back of House transformational project, that Egg Soldiers was integral to.

"The 'resetting' of our kitchens in terms of process, kit and standards was a mammoth task and challenged a lot of our existing ways of working. The guidance, teaching and implementation was carefully curated and delivered; the results were game changing.

Jake Bishop

Co-Founder - Loungers

The Egg Soldiers team have been a valuable asset to our pub kitchens, their expertise has allowed us to revamp our layouts and operations, resulting in increased efficiencies and streamlined processes.

Thanks to their guidance we're able to serve our guests faster, even on our busiest days, we have been extremely happy with the positive results.

Lewis Allington

Head of Food - St Austell Brewery

"Côte is going through an exciting period of change, with our food ID and strategy crucial to the journey.

"As such, we decided to find a dynamic, highly-experienced food development agency with a unique approach to support us in its creation, and Egg Soldiers was more than up to the task.

"The team showed remarkable attention to detail and a passion for the creative throughout. They guided us through every step with confidence and care, co-creating with our food team and delivering outstanding results that perfectly align with our food philosophy, both for now and for the future.

"Toph and Stefan are both genuine experts, and I highly recommend them and their (Egg) Soldiers."
