We can supply coffee/teas, sandwiches/ciabattas, local selection platters, salads and sweet dessert platters. For conference receptions we offer handmade canapes, crudites and dips, along with local wines, beers and organic juices. 

Our locally sourced products are beautifully and imaginatively prepared and will enhance the conference experience for those attending. Because our food is sourced from the counties of Anglia, this gives it a unique appeal, as well as reducing our carbon footprint and food miles.
