Cookery Nook The Cookery Nook is a Mercy Community social enterprise connecting people and communities through food.

We provide a broad range of catering service options including delivery and waiting services within the Brisbane metropolitan area and Logan. Brisbane catering, delicious food, but so much more

The Cookery Nook is part of Mercy Community, a not-for-profit community services organisation dedicated to supporting and inspiring people in need to live healthy, connected lives within inclusive communit

ies. As well as being a thriving catering service, the Cookery Nook is an Australian Disability Enterprise (ADE), providing meaningful employment for people with intellectual disabilities who may not have access to mainstream job opportunities. Not only does our team create delicious food from fresh, local produce and deliver it to your door, we demonstrate a workplace culture where everyone feels welcome, supported and empowered. This can have significant positive effects on self-esteem and sense of purpose. We started this social enterprise knowing it would change lives. For many in our team, the new skills, experience, and confidence they gain with us will be a valuable stepping-stone to other work in the hospitality industry and beyond. When you choose us to cater your next event, you’re not only choosing quality food and service—you’re also choosing to make a difference!

At Cookery Nook, we help organisations go beyond their KPIs, delivering social value and not just profit.

As a certified social enterprise, we operate as a fully commercial corporate caterer that employs individuals living with intellectual disabilities. The beneficiaries learn hospitality skills in a safe and supportive environment. The Nook also aids in the development of social skills that go beyond the workplace, building resilience and strengthening mental health.

When you partner with a social enterprise, you power more than just your business. You support the communities where you operate.

We're proud to be certified with Social Traders – Australia's leading industry body for social enterprise and social performance since 2008.
