Catering for Dietary Requirements

Good catering leaves no one out. Across every menu and format we build in vegan, vegetarian, halal, gluten-free, dairy-free and nut-free options as standard, not as a token dish in the corner, so every guest eats well and feels considered.

Our family-run kitchen cooks from scratch, which means we can adapt dishes and handle allergies with real care. Any vegetarian main on our menus can be made vegan on request. Every dish is labelled with full allergen information. For seated events we plan carefully around each guest's needs, working from your guest list ahead of the day, though for very high-risk allergies it can depend on the facilities on site. Our Plant-Based menu alone has 11 vegan mains and a generous range of vegan sides.

Tell us about your guests' needs through the Get a Quote form, including any severe allergies, and we will advise the right approach and build a menu that works for everyone, with a 24 hour reply from us.
