Internal Hospitality Menu

Introduction

Baxter Storey are committed to consistently delivering the highest standard of hospitality catering. Our food offer is intrinsically linked to the service standards which we set, and we will deliver a prompt and discreet service to you.

We are delighted to present our Internal Hospitality Menu which gives an indication of the services available. Our menus change regularly and are influenced by the seasonality of ingredients to ensure best quality and value.

The University of Gloucestershire has an institutional commitment to sustainability and is a formally recognised sector leader. Our Sustainable Food Policy seeks to reduce food miles, promote fresh and locally sourced food as well as healthy, organic, free range and Fairtrade products.   Baxter Storey has a reputation for delivering fresh, quality and sustainably sourced food. Sustainability principles are ingrained in both our working practices and menu selections. We believe that by placing sustainable behaviour at the heart of our business it forces the organisation to think differently, be more creative and innovative in how it delivers its services.  We will be pleased to discuss any aspect of your catering requirements with you, and if you have any special requests, we will do our utmost to ensure that these are accommodated. In support of this we are always happy to tailor or create a menu to suit your budget or special occasion.
