Conference Catering

We understand that your delegates will need to stay refreshed and nourished throughout the day when attending a conference or meeting. That’s why we can provide a number of food options for your corporate event.

Opt for a sit-down dinner or choose a buffet-style lunch bought straight to your meeting room. If you would rather take a break from your hired room altogether, then you can join us in our restaurant in Staffordshire.
