FOOD with impact

Our mission is to deliver extraordinary food while creating meaningful change.

We know there’s a lot of noise around seasonal food and being more sustainable, but we really do practice what we preach. Our actions speak louder than words and we are determined to make a difference whilst still delivering extraordinary events, extraordinary service and extraordinary food.

FRESH, local, seasonal.

Food is our thing, and creating beautiful well-thought-out menus is what makes us tick. Living in the UK we have access to ingredients from all over the world, but this comes at an environmental cost. One thing you should know about us, we believe that great food is at the heart of every social gathering & we design and deliver incredible experiences around food in a socially and environmentally conscious way. Catering this way and crafting menus with a fresh, local & seasonal approach is not only better for us, but better for the planet, think high impact events that make a positive lasting impact.

A NOTE FROM Alex

I started Social Pantry in 2011 as I had a passion for gathering people together to have memorable experiences around good food. This led me to launch what has now become the leading, independent catering company, serving fresh, seasonal, sustainable food at unique and exciting events.

My talented team are at the forefront of sustainable style, thinking outside the box to deliver exceptional experiences in a socially and environmentally conscious way. What you should know about us is that lot of time is spent committing to circular economies, zero waste initiatives and menus focused around nose-to-tail and root-to-flower dishes. We are reshaping what people think of as ‘catering’ with inspiring, innovative food and drink tailored to the unique needs of every client. Think high-impact events with minimal environmental impact.

EMPLOYING ex-offenders

Putting the ‘social’ in Social Pantry.

We are the leader in prison leaver employment in hospitality and we try to challenge the industry norm with our culture – from a no-shouty kitchen policy to our prison leaver mentoring, it’s an important part of Social Pantry. So whilst we deliver an excellent service, our clients can rest assured that what goes on behind the scenes at Social Pantry is socially responsible.

Since 2015, we’ve been working with several charities such as Key4Life and suppliers that contribute to prison reformation and crime prevention.
