15 years providing food after training for York City Football Club. All the best for tomorrow’s away trip to Tamworth lads. Hopefully another step nearer to getting back to League 2. ⚽️

So today is the last trading day for the shop.
Remember. We are still operating purely as a catering company . Providing buffets for
corporate and personal events.
Once again. Thank you for all your support in the shop and tearooms over the last 24 years.
Have a great Easter Weekend.

On Thursday 2nd April, after nearly 24 years we are closing the shop and Tearoom. We will still be providing Catering for business lunches and training courses. Along with private events for parties, anniversaries, birthdays weddings and any events people would like catering.

The decision is for personal and economic reasons. Economically, many people now working from home. There are certainly less people working regularly in the local area. This also reduces footfall walk-in business. Home delivery companies also has a big effect. But not something we wanted to start, feeling both quality on delivery and price are hugely effected.

Food costs as we all know have risen over 40% in the last 5 years. This is much easier to control with outside catering than it is within the shop and Tearoom, where customer numbers vary so much on a daily basis within the shop.

We certainly hope to provide catering for business and family events in York for many years to come.

But for now. We would like to thank all our customers who have supported us for so many years. We really have met some fantastic, interesting and lovely people over the years. Some will remain friends and many I’m sure we will see over many years to come and enjoy catching up with all their news.

So for now. We thank you again. But hope we can provide food for business events and those special personal and family occasion’s in years to come.

Wishing you all the very best.
