As autumn and winter approach, many workplaces are planning team gatherings, client events and end-of-year celebrations. To help with the season ahead, our chefs have created a new Autumn/Winter Events Menu, with a range of food and formats for different workplace occasions.
There’s breakfast for early meetings, lots of choice for lunch, and canapés and sharing platters for events that run later into the day. The menu also brings in seasonal ingredients, British produce and flavours from around the world.
Celebrating the season
Our new menu samples autumn and winter flavours, from a breakfast with apple and cinnamon hazelnut crunch overnight oats to lunch salads featuring fresh kale, seasonal squash, buckwheat and pickled onions.
Our canapés make good use of seasonal produce too. There’s leek and root vegetable quiche with whipped camembert and pickled cranberries, crispy polenta with pumpkin, pine nuts and sage salsa verde, and carrot, parsnip and Brussels sprout bhaji with pickled squash and chilli salsa.
British produce from suppliers we know
We've worked with some of our trusted suppliers to bring British ingredients into the new menu.
Dingley Dell features in a few different dishes. There’s a Dingley Dell chorizo, sliced egg, chilli jam and brioche bun in our breakfast menu. For canapés, we’re serving Dingley Dell's smoked ham hock ballotine with mustard mayo, while the premium charcuterie platter includes Dingley Dell kabanos. Weald Smokery's salmon rillette with pickled cucumber features among the cold canapés.
These are just some of the suppliers our chefs work with, giving us ingredients we can rely on and use across different areas of the menu.
Something for every occasion
Not every workplace event calls for the same kind of food. A breakfast meeting is different from a team lunch, while an evening celebration might mean canapés and food that guests can share. Our new menu covers all of these formats.
Breakfast meetings
Choose from sweet and savoury breakfast pots, sandwiches, smoothies, pastries and fruit platters. There are lighter options such as coconut chia with raspberry compote and toasted coconut, alongside more substantial choices such as smoked salmon, crushed avocado, Nordic seed croutes and soft-boiled egg.
Working lunches
There are freshly made sandwiches, deli options, finger food and salads, as well as hot buffets for larger groups. Salads include spring green salad with spicy sesame croutons and coconut and miso dressing, chickpea salad with tamarind and coconut yoghurt dressing, and Yum woon sen rice noodle salad with sweet chilli dressing.
Canapés and nibbles
For receptions and drinks, there’s a choice of hot and cold canapés, along with nibbles including charcuterie cups, chips and dips, BBQ chicken wings and sweet nibbles.
Sharing platters
For a more relaxed spread, there are British, Italian, plant-based, East Asian, Middle Eastern and vegetarian platters. There are also premium charcuterie and British cheese boards, plus dessert platters.
Workplace celebrations
For larger events and end-of-year gatherings, you can combine canapés, platters and other sharing dishes to create a menu that works for the occasion.
From the first coffee of the morning to an evening celebration, there’s something to suit the way you’re planning to bring people together.
