ABOUT CHRISTMAS CATERING

The one lunch of the year everybody remembers

An office Christmas lunch is the meal your team remembers, and the one they're still talking about in February. We have been catering them across the Midlands since 2012: for offices of eight and factories of three hundred, in boardrooms, on shop floors and in village halls.

There are five ways we do it. A festive sandwich buffet is any of our nine buffets with Christmas swapped in at no extra cost. Festive turkey rolls arrive hot for thirty or more, or become a festive feast served on site for fifty or more. The Christmas feast bowl and the Sadlergates Christmas dinner are served on site by our team for fifty or more, and a hog roast takes care of the big party.

If none of those is quite right, say so. Changing a menu to suit a room is the ordinary part of this job, not the difficult part.

BEFORE YOU BOOK

Christmas Catering, your questions answered

When should we book Christmas party catering?

As early as you can, and especially for anything served on site. On-site service is subject to availability and the last two weeks before Christmas fill first, Thursdays and Fridays especially. If you already have a date, ask now. We would far rather hold it than turn you away in November.

How much is Christmas party catering?

Festive sandwich buffets start at £5.50 a head. Festive turkey rolls are £7.95 a head, or £11.95 as a festive feast with crispy roast potatoes, pigs in blankets and gravy, served on site. The Christmas feast bowl is £12.95 and the Sadlergates Christmas dinner £23.50 a head, with dessert a further £7.50. Hog roasts are priced by guest numbers from £795. All prices are subject to VAT at 20%.

What dates can you cater?

The Christmas menu runs throughout December 2026. Festive sandwich buffets follow the usual ordering cut-off; turkey rolls, feast bowls, Christmas dinners and hog roasts depend on what is still free that day, so ask about your date when you book.

What is on a festive sandwich buffet?

Any of our Buffets 1 to 9, from £5.50 a head, with festive swaps at no extra cost: Christmas-inspired fillings, festive savouries and seasonal sweet treats. Exact selections depend on the buffet you choose, and the minimum order is four people.

Can you deliver hot food for an office party?

Yes. Festive turkey rolls are delivered hot: warm roast turkey, sage and onion stuffing and cranberry sauce in a crusty bread roll, £7.95 a head for 30 guests or more. Make it a festive feast, with crispy roast potatoes, pigs in blankets and rich gravy, for £11.95 a head; the feast is served on site by our team for 50 guests or more.

Can you serve a full Christmas dinner at our venue?

Yes. The Sadlergates Christmas dinner is £23.50 a head, served on site by our team: roast breast of turkey, topside of beef or honey roast gammon, with a vegan meatloaf on request, plus pigs in blankets, seasonal vegetables, baby roast potatoes, gravy and the sauces. Have it as a traditional hot buffet, where guests come up and our team serves them, or In the Middle, set at the centre of each table to share, for £6.00 a head more. Minimum 50 guests, subject to availability.

What is the Christmas feast bowl?

Christmas dinner in one generous bowl: crispy roast potatoes, roast turkey, sage and onion stuffing, pigs in blankets, rich gravy and cranberry sauce, for £12.95 a head. There is a vegan version too. It is served fresh on site for 50 guests or more.

Do you cater works Christmas parties and family ones?

Both, and at the same price. Office parties tend to want a festive buffet or turkey rolls delivered, or a Christmas dinner at a venue; family gatherings more often want the hog roast. The kitchen does not know the difference and neither does the bill.

What are the vegetarian and vegan options?

There is a vegan festive turkey roll with vegan turkey and stuffing, a vegan Christmas feast bowl, and a vegan meatloaf with the Christmas dinner on request. The sandwich buffets are 30% vegetarian as standard, with vegan portions on request. Everything is prepared separately and labelled.

Where do you deliver Christmas catering?

Nottingham, Derby, Sheffield, Leicester, Mansfield, Chesterfield and Hucknall, and the towns between them. Buffet delivery is free, and hot food and on-site service are quoted with the venue and the numbers.
