Lunch Catering for Offices & Workplaces in London

The office doesn’t need to be a place that’s only associated with work. Here at Social Pantry, we think it’s a must to keep brains energised with a good hearty meal, otherwise how else are you going to get through an afternoon?

We’re dedicated to creating lunches for your business that are not only delicious, fresh and seasonal, but also deliver excellent nutritional value. Our menus are rich in protein and plants, providing teams with the fuel they need to feel healthier and more energised throughout the day.

If you want to reward your employees, we really believe that great food is the perfect way to do it. Not only will you fuel the team, but you’ll allow them time to sit down together and connect with one another, which can really boost both mental and physical wellbeing.

But our lunches aren’t just good for you and your team, they’re also good for the planet. We run our kitchens with a zero-to-landfill approach, using locally-sourced, seasonal produce to create menus that are focussed around nose-to-tail and root-to-flower dishes.

Delivering exceptional food sustainably is at the forefront of what we do at Social Pantry, you can read all about our dedication to sustainability, which has led to us being certified as a B Corp, here.

Lunch Catering Options

At Social Pantry, we believe eating well at work should be hassle-free for both you and your employees. We offer three different lunch catering options which can be flexible to your needs: In House, Styled & Served, and Drop Off.

Our menus change monthly and offer an expansive range of different dishes to choose from , whether you want sandwiches, bento boxes or lunch pots, hot or cold dishes, individual portions or sharing-style platters. We can even keep your kitchen topped up with snacks to keep the team going between our visits too! In short, all you need to do is decide how hungry your office is and we’ll cater to it. Whatever you choose, you’ll be assigned a dedicated Workplace Partner who will take care of everything from seasonal menu updates to celebrations, dietary requirements, logistics and accounts.

Lunch On Location

For offices with a kitchen on-site, we can offer our signature In-House Catering. This means we’ll build a dedicated Social Pantry team in your workplace to execute the entire lunch service, including a team of chefs who will prepare, cook and plate up your lunches, a front of house team to serve the food and ensure that the service runs smoothly, and a team of kitchen porters who will look after the clean-up!.

Lunch Delivered & Served

Our Styled & Served option is best for offices that don’t have a kitchen (or space to prepare food) in the building. We’ll fully prepare your lunch at Social Pantry HQ, then safely deliver it to your workplace in ceramic bowls and platters, ready to be set up as a styled food station by our front of house team.

Your dedicated Workplace Partner can discuss with you how many front of house team members you’ll require, as they will be on hand to present the food ready for service, as well as serving your team and replenishing dishes throughout service. We’ll also be able to provide all the serveware, glassware, cutlery, napkins and anything else you require for a seamless service.

Lunch Drop Off

For teams that like to keep it simple, our drop off service means that your food is fully prepared at Social Pantry HQ, then delivered to your workplace, boxed up in eco-friendly, biodegradable packaging, just in time for service.

With this option, you get the same fresh, exciting seasonal food that Social Pantry is known for, only it’s boxed up, rather than plated. We can either individually package up salads, sandwiches and bento boxes for employees to help themselves, or, alternatively, we can provide disposable platter boxes that allow teams to pick and choose from a variety of options.

Frequently Asked Questions

We are the experts at catering to our clients’ needs, so you tell us exactly when you would like lunch service to begin, and we will work to that. Your Workplace Partner will gather all the necessary details from you in advance when you place your order; the menu you’d like to be served, how many people you expect to be in attendance, what time you’d like lunch service to start, what time slot you have available for the lunch service to run, and any other details that will help your lunch catering to run seamlessly. Our job is to make serving lunch as easy and pain-free as possible for you, so leave it to us to work around you and your office culture.

We offer a selection of drinks in our lunch catering menus that can easily be added onto your order. These include coffee, tea, and fresh juices, as well as a range of independent soft drink brands and ethically sourced water. We can also arrange to bring in speciality drinks suppliers. Fancy a post-lunch barista coffee cart in the office? How about a smoothie van in the car park? You name it, we can do it.

For both our In House and Styled & Served catering options, we can provide all the crockery, glassware and cutlery you’ll need. For our Drop Off service, it’s up to you whether you’d like to use your own crockery and cutlery, or whether you’d like us to include bamboo cutlery in the delivery.

We can serve lunch for as little or as long as you require. Perhaps you only have a 30 minute window in which to feed the team? No problem. Other clients opt for a ‘drop in’ style service, where colleagues know that between certain times, a served lunch will be available and they can turn up when it suits them. Your Workplace Partner will work with you on deciding the best course of action for your needs and we will accommodate any and all requests as best we can.
