Recurring office catering for London workplaces: daily staff meals, weekly team lunches and multi-site catering requirements. Brief your attendance pattern, menu preferences and procurement needs so the team can propose an account scope.
Planning your recurring workplace account
Build the brief around actual office attendance
Start with the days people attend, expected people per service and the sites involved. Hybrid anchor days may need a different headcount from the rest of the week. Include shift patterns, holiday closures and a contact for each location so the proposed schedule reflects how the workplace operates.
Agree account controls before the first repeat order
Ask for the process for changing headcounts, approving menus, reporting problems and cancelling a delivery. Confirm the applicable cut-off times, notice periods and contract terms in writing. A sample service or trial can be discussed, but its availability, cost and obligations should be agreed rather than assumed.
Make procurement and multi-site scope explicit
Provide purchasing requirements such as purchase orders, cost centres, invoice frequency and supplier documentation. Separate the food budget from staffing, hire and delivery costs. For multiple offices, record site-specific access and meal windows; agree how the service will be reviewed before expanding.

Pricing and terms
Pricing is tailored to the menu format, attendance, location and agreed service level. Ask the written quote to identify any minimum order, delivery, equipment, staffing and applicable taxes. Recurring pricing and contract terms are agreed individually.
Discuss an initial service
Discuss an initial service and how your team’s feedback will be reviewed before agreeing a regular schedule. Any trial cost, commitment and terms must be confirmed in the proposal.
Contract catering in the City of London
For recurring work across EC1–EC4 and east-central London, share the schedule and building access for each office. City, Aldgate, Liverpool Street, Spitalfields, Shoreditch and Whitechapel locations can have different receiving arrangements; confirm them in the account brief.
Dietary requirements
Tell us about dietary preferences and allergies when you enquire. Suitable options, ingredient information, labelling and any cross-contact limitations must be confirmed for the proposed menu before booking.
