Parties in Mansfield and Ashfield
The party trade here is clubs and halls rather than hotels. Working men's clubs, sports and social clubs, the village halls out through Rainworth, Warsop and Bilsthorpe, and the church rooms. That is where a Mansfield fortieth, christening or retirement actually happens.
Those rooms have two things in common: a hatch rather than a kitchen, and a booking that starts an hour before the guests do. So the food arrives in that hour, gets laid out and covered, and the person who booked the room does not spend it making sandwiches. Buffet 5 at £7.70 a head covers most of it; Buffet 9 at £11.00 where the afternoon runs into the evening.
Saturdays are the busiest day of the week for party food, so the earlier the date is in the diary the better the choice of times. Say when you want the food out and that is when it arrives.
The bigger ones
For a party over about fifty, and particularly one with a field or a car park attached, a hog roast from £795 does more than a buffet. It feeds the room without seating it, it works outdoors, and it is the thing people talk about afterwards.
Kids get their own menu at £8.00 a head rather than a smaller version of the adult one, which at a christening or a family party is the difference between children eating and children not.

Why Mansfield chooses us
Club nights and works dos
Presentation evenings, club functions and works parties are most of what Mansfield books. A cold buffet or a hot one, for twenty or two hundred.
Out and covered before your guests
Delivered about half an hour ahead and laid out where you want it. Say the hour and that is the hour.
Nine buffets, £5.50 to £11.00
Made the same morning twelve miles away: sandwiches, savouries, crisps, fruit and homemade cake, on platters ready to serve.
Children at £8.00
Their own menu rather than smaller adult portions. Thirty per cent of every buffet is vegetarian as standard.
What our customers say
4.9 out of 5 from 210+ Google reviews
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, Nottingham
Fantastic food and service from Sadlergates Catering Nottingham for a Celebration of Life event. They were so lovely to deal with and there were many compliments about the sandwich buffet on the day. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them for catering an event.
Hester · Celebration of life, Nottingham
Sadlergate were outstanding from start to finish when catering our Christmas event. The festive buffet was of a very high standard providing three different meats and also veggie options. Shaun and Vicky were incredible throughout the evening, ensuring everything ran seamlessly and taking care of every detail.

Party catering in Mansfield, your questions answered
Can you deliver early on a Saturday?
Yes, and more reliably here than further out. Mansfield is twelve miles away and tends to be early on the weekend round, so if you have the room from midday we can be there for it.
Can you cater a party for both adults and children?
Yes, and it is worth ordering them separately. The kids menu is £8.00 a head; adult buffets start at £5.50. Both groups eat better and it usually costs less than ordering everyone the same thing.
How much notice do you need?
Order by 4pm for the next working day. For a Saturday party, remember a Monday delivery closes on the Friday. The kitchen prepares on the morning it goes out.
Can you deliver to a club with a hatch rather than a kitchen?
That describes most of the rooms we deliver to around Mansfield. The food arrives on platters ready to put straight out. Nothing needs heating, plating or a kitchen at your end.
Do you cater children's parties?
Yes, at £8.00 a head cold or £10.50 hot. At a christening or a family party, ordering the children separately is the difference between them eating and them not.
Is there a minimum order?
£20 on the order value for a delivered buffet, which is four people on Buffet 1. Anything cooked on site is quoted as an event and the buffet minimum does not apply to it.
Do we have to wash up?
No. Disposable plates and napkins are included with every buffet, and our driver collects the cool boxes and empty platters the next working day.
