CORPORATE HIGH TEA CATERING
Corporate High Tea, Done Beautifully
No boxed lunches, no sad sandwich platters. Just a proper spread that makes clients feel looked after and staff actually want to show up.
Why High Tea Works for Business
Most corporate catering is forgettable on purpose, safe, quick, nobody complains but nobody remembers it either. High tea does the opposite. It’s still easy to organise and still works around a business schedule, but it actually looks like effort went into it, which matters more than people admit. Clients notice. Staff notice. Nobody walks away thinking “that was just a boxed lunch.”
Corporate Events We Cater
We’ve catered pretty much every kind of work event with our famous high teas. From office Christmas parties to International Women’s Day high teas, product launches where the food needs to match how much effort went into everything else. Staff appreciation days, farewells, milestones, the kind of internal celebration that’s easy to forget until someone remembers it was actually really nice. If it’s happening at work and it deserves better than a sandwich platter, it’s probably something we’ve done before.
Steeped in detail
Beautiful, for the Boardroom
Designed Around Your Event
Every corporate event has its own quirks, budget approvals, someone’s calendar that can’t move, a venue that’s actually just the boardroom. A few things worth thinking through before you book your high tea.
Confirm Numbers Before the Date
RSVPs are notoriously unreliable. Build in a buffer.
Check Who’s Approving the Budget
Get sign-off sorted before you lock anything in.
Think About Timing
Give the afternoon enough room to not feel rushed.
Internal or Client-Facing?
Changes the tone, and sometimes the budget.
Loop In Reception or Facilities
They know the building’s quirks better than anyone.
Ask for a Formal Quote
We’re used to providing these for finance teams.
Book Further Out Than Feels Necessary
EOFY and December dates go fast.
Have a Backup Plan for the Room
Meeting rooms get double-booked more than you’d think.
Hosting at Your Office or Venue
Office buildings all have their own quirks, and we’d rather know about them before the morning of your event than find out on the day. Lift access matters more than people expect, some buildings need bookings just to use the service lift. Loading docks, parking restrictions, security sign-in, oven and fridge access, all worth flagging early so setup runs smoothly rather than becoming a scramble. Tell us what you know about the venue when you enquire, and we’ll ask about anything you haven’t thought of yet.
Corporate High Tea Menu
When you book your high tea catering with us you can expect the classics done properly, finger sandwiches, scones, a proper spread of sweets and savouries. It looks considerably better than a boxed lunch, and it’s still easy to serve in a boardroom or office kitchen. See our full High Tea Menu for the complete lineup.
Dietary requirements are simple to manage too, even with a mixed office crowd. Every cake on our menu is gluten free as standard, and we cater for vegetarian, vegan and dairy free guests without much notice. A few allergies and trickier combinations are harder for us to guarantee, so mention anything specific when you enquire. Full detail’s on our Dietary Requirements page.
Vintage Crockery Hire
A boardroom or breakout space looks like a different room entirely once it’s set with proper crockery instead of disposable cups and plastic platters. Teacups, cake stands, a table that actually looks like effort went into it. It’s a small addition that changes how the whole event reads.

We Help You Shine As Host.
Corporate events don’t just represent the person who organised them, they represent the company. The food arrives on time. The presentation matches your standards. Dietary guests feel genuinely included, not an afterthought. Executives aren’t asking where lunch is. Clients leave impressed, and colleagues remember it as one of the good ones. That’s the confidence we’re built to provide, so whoever’s name is on the booking, the event reflects well on all of it.
