Award-winning catering experts championing modern British food.
We believe in honest food, made with integrity.
We respect where our ingredients come from, never compromise on quality, and believe that sustainability and simplicity go hand-in-hand.
1.
SAY NO TO WASTE
We order quantities carefully and use surplus food from events to create zero-waste staff meals and even zero-waste canapés.
2.
REUSE + RECYCLE
We prefer equipment that can be sanitised and reused, dispose of recyclable materials responsibly, and request that we and our suppliers use recyclable and biodegradable packaging.
3.
SHOW LOCAL LOVE
We champion local farms and suppliers, grow our own herbs and edible flowers, forage for seasonal ingredients, and use honey harvested from our own hive. We also regularly donate to our food bank.
4.
WATCH OUR FOOTPRINT
We keep our food mileage to a minimum by sourcing locally and seasonally, both at home and at events further afield. We recently invested in more carbon-efficient vehicles and offer shared staff transport to all events.
