Conference catering for 50 to 2,500 delegates.

Individual lunch boxes are portioned per person. Each delegate gets their own box with everything in it. This is the cleanest way to manage very large groups or dietary requirements at scale, the easiest to distribute during a short lunch break, and the format that causes least disruption to a tight schedule. Shared platters are a generous, communal spread that works well when there's time for people to serve themselves and move around. We'll recommend which suits your event when we quote.

We ask for a likely dietary breakdown at the quote stage. Once registrations are finalised, we'll send you a simple form to complete so we accurately capture all dietary requirements. For individual lunch boxes, each dietary variant is clearly distinguished so distribution is straightforward. For shared platters, dietary options are clearly labelled and kept separate where needed. Gluten free, vegetarian, vegan, dairy free and halal options are all standard for us, not special requests. If you have a delegate with a complex requirement, let us know and we'll advise on what we can safely accommodate.

For conferences of up to around 100 people, two weeks usually gives us what we need. For larger events: several hundred to 2,500 delegates, six to eight weeks lets us plan the logistics properly and ensure the food is right. If your conference is coming up quickly, get in touch anyway. We'll tell you honestly whether we can make it work and what we'd need to do so.

Yes. Larger conferences are something we handle regularly. We have capacity to cater conference events up to 2,500 guests (please get in touch if you have a larger event than this). The logistics for events at this scale are different: more lead time, more coordination with the venue, often a staffed set-up rather than a drop-off. When you enquire, include your expected headcount, the venue, the sessions you need catered, and your preferred format. We'll come back with a quote that accounts for all of it.

Both. Drop-off means the food arrives ready to serve: boxed and laid out so it's easy to manage without our team present. A full set-up means we deliver, arrange everything and stay to run the session if you need staff there. Which option suits you depends on your venue and how your event runs. We'll recommend what makes most sense when we quote.

Yes. For set up and staffed events we supply everything needed to present and serve the food: platters, serving tongs, napkins and equipment for hot dishes. Individual lunch boxes are packed with cutlery if required. For drop-off orders, we can supply recyclable plates, cutlery and cups if your venue doesn't provide them. Just ask when you enquire.

Yes, we invoice directly for conference bookings. Payment by bank transfer or company credit card is fine. We provide a tax invoice for your accounts department. If you have specific purchase order or invoicing requirements, let us know when you enquire and we'll accommodate them.

Yes. We work with organisations that run annual conferences, quarterly training days and multi-day events on a standing arrangement. We can vary menus so that delegates have plenty of variety over a multi-day event. If you have a recurring event, it's worth talking to us about it directly. We can lock in the arrangement and make the ordering process very simple for your team year after year.
