Catering in Hucknall
Our kitchen is in Hucknall. Not a branch, not a delivery radius drawn on a map: this is where the food is made, where the vans start, and where the business is registered.

YOUR LOCAL CATERER
The caterer down the road
Every buffet this company delivers (to Derby, to Sheffield, to Leicester) is made in Hucknall and leaves from here. If you are in Hucknall, you are ordering from the shortest supply chain we have.
It also means our food hygiene rating comes from Ashfield District Council rather than somewhere we have never been inspected, and that the five it awarded is for this kitchen specifically.

These are the places we cater at most often. The list is nowhere near all of them. We deliver across Hucknall and the surrounding area, so if your venue, office or hall is not named here, it is almost certainly still one we cover. Ring the office and ask.
Why the kitchen being here matters
Everything is made in our kitchen on Watnall Road. For a Hucknall order that means sandwiches cut a few streets away and on your table while they are still at their best.
It also means the awkward requests are easier to say yes to here than anywhere else. Somebody ringing at half nine because a meeting has grown by fifteen people is a harder conversation in Sheffield than it is a mile down the road. We cannot always help, but in Hucknall we can try in a way we genuinely cannot elsewhere.
Our food hygiene rating is inspected and awarded by Ashfield District Council, and the five out of five it carries is for this kitchen: not a group rating, not an average, and not one inherited from another site.
What Hucknall orders
The pattern here is different from the cities. Less corporate volume, more community: club functions at the John Godber Centre, presentation nights at Hucknall Town, christenings and wakes at the churches and halls, and the birthdays and anniversaries that fill a village hall on a Saturday.
There is working catering too, mostly around the Watnall Road corridor and out towards Sherwood Business Park at junction 27, along with the Wigwam Lane and Common Lane estates. Those are ordinary buffet orders, Buffet 1 at £5.50 a head through to Buffet 9 at £11.00, and they go out first on the round because they are nearest.
For anything bigger, hog roasts and barbecues travel well from here: Newstead Abbey, Papplewick Pumping Station and Bestwood Lodge are all inside fifteen minutes, and a hog roast that does not have to be trailered halfway across a county is a hog roast that gets set up unhurried.
Where we deliver around Hucknall
Hucknall itself, Butler’s Hill and Broomhill, then out through Linby, Papplewick, Newstead and Annesley to the north, Bestwood Village and Nuthall to the south, and Watnall, Kimberley and Eastwood to the west.
Delivery is free across all of it on orders over £20. Beyond that we are into the Nottingham and Mansfield rounds, both of which run every working day anyway.
What our customers say
Booked Sadlergates for my husband’s 50th birthday, The Hog Roast (we went with the Gold package). The team (Will, Ryan and Vickie) were all absolutely fantastic, friendly and professional whilst having a laugh with us! The food was completely outstanding, and every single guest commented on how incredible it was.
Shel · 50th birthday hog roast, Mansfield
Fantastic food and service from Sadlergates Catering for a family celebration. Everything arrived on time, looked great and tasted even better. Would not hesitate to use them again.
Hester · Family celebration, Nottingham
We received a sample buffet at our workplace and were very happy. The sandwiches were fresh, there was plenty of choice and the vegetarian option was properly thought about rather than an afterthought.

Catering in Hucknall, your questions answered
Where is Sadlergates based?
Our kitchen is on Castle Industrial Park, Watnall Road, Hucknall. It is where every buffet we deliver is made, wherever it is going, and it is the address the company is registered at.
Do you deliver in Hucknall?
Every working day, and free on orders over £20. Being the town the kitchen is in, a Hucknall order is about as fresh as a delivered buffet gets.
How much notice do you need?
Order by 4pm for delivery the next working day, and a Monday delivery closes at 4pm on the Friday. If you are in Hucknall and stuck, ring the office anyway. We can sometimes help at shorter notice here than we can elsewhere, though we will not promise it.
Who inspects your food hygiene rating?
Ashfield District Council, because the kitchen is in their area. The rating is 5 out of 5, awarded 13 May 2025, and it applies to this kitchen.
What does a buffet cost in Hucknall?
From £5.50 a head for Buffet 1 up to £11.00 for Buffet 9, with nine options in total and the contents of each on the sandwich buffet menu. Delivery is free, there is a £20 minimum, and prices exclude VAT.
Can you cater a hog roast at Newstead Abbey or Papplewick?
Yes, and both are close enough that setting up is unhurried. Hog roasts are priced by guest numbers from £795 for up to fifty. Tell us the date and the venue and we will confirm what we have free.
Do you cater wakes in Hucknall?
Regularly, and usually at 48 hours’ notice or better. Sandwiches, savouries and cake delivered to the hall, club or house and set out before the family arrives back.
Can I collect an order rather than have it delivered?
Ring the office and ask. The kitchen is a working production kitchen, so it depends entirely on what else is going on that morning, but being local, it is a question worth asking.
