The catering offer was created to support the employees, visitors and clients with a reliance on off site production. Sustainability was a key factor and we assisted in contributing towards the BREEAM Excellent rating achieved for the building.

For this relocation of a financial company in the heart of the City of London, the catering facilities had to cater for a number of demands, including, an all-day dining/coffee bar facility for the staff, client hospitality & fine dining suite and an interactive wine cave. Interiors were given a contemporary retail feel by TP Bennett.
