Buffets for Chesterfield offices and events

Almost none of what we deliver into Chesterfield is glamorous. It is team meetings at the innovation centres, training days on the trading estates, inductions, client visits and the standing weekly order that somebody set up two years ago and has not had to think about since.

The town's working geography is compact and helpful: Dunston and Tapton innovation centres, the Holmewood, Dunston and Speedwell estates, Coney Green, Bridge Business Centre, and Markham Vale out at junction 29a. Add Chesterfield Royal Hospital and that is most of the weekday round.

The nine numbered buffets are built for ordering in thirty seconds. Buffet 1 is sandwiches at £5.50. Buffet 5 adds savouries at £7.70. Buffet 9 is everything including the juice at £11.00. The full contents of all nine are on the sandwich buffet menu.

Weekends and occasions

The same buffets go to christenings, birthdays and wakes across the town and the villages, and to the function suites at Ringwood Hall, Casa and the SMH Group Stadium.

For something larger, hot buffets are £23.50 a head with a fifty-person minimum, breakfast starts at £3.35 delivered between 8am and 9am, and grazing boards are £97.00 a crate serving ten.

Where we deliver around Chesterfield

The town centre and out through Brampton, Hasland, Newbold, Whittington Moor, Spital, Boythorpe and Tapton, plus Brimington and Staveley to the east and Clay Cross, Wingerworth and Unstone beyond — and a good way past all of them. Delivery is free on orders over £20.

Offices, innovation centres, trading estates, the hospital, hotels, halls, clubs and houses.

Why Chesterfield chooses us

  • Busy here already

    We have delivered into Chesterfield for years, so the awkward bits are already solved — the estates, the one-way systems and the receptions that need a name in advance.

    £5.50 to £11.00 a head with the contents of each on the menu page, so you can pick and budget without waiting on a quote.

  • The M1 corridor is easy

    You get a delivery slot, not a vague morning. Tell us the hour the meeting starts and the food is there before it.

  • Thirty per cent vegetarian as standard

    Before you ask for it, on every buffet. Vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and halal made separately and labelled.

  • Sadlergates provided us with a cold buffet for 12 people at a holiday cottage. The meal was delivered on time by a very friendly driver. All of the food was of an excellent standard with plenty of variety. The gluten-free food was also very much appreciated.
