Firstly, drinks are available all day long, tea and coffee. There will be small amounts of organic and alternative milk available for those who ask for them and jugs full of iced water! There are tables, sofas and chairs set up around the Hotel's ground floor area for you to chill out or eat.

Lunch will be served over a 2-hour period from 12:30 – 14:30. We do this to avoid the carnage or the stampede that can occur when food is put out. It is only meant to be a light lunch so bear that in mind when you go to collect your food. Sessions do continue right the way through the lunchtime period so the food serving is staggered to ensure food is left for the later eaters.

Our plan is that the food presented will cater to all obvious dietary requirements [not including Kosher requirements or Halal meat]. The food will be clearly labelled and there will be sufficient variety to meet the needs of vegetarians, vegans, carnivores and those who require a gluten-free diet. We aim for the lunches to be nut free but in a commercial kitchen, we cannot guarantee that there will be no contamination. If you are not requiring the special food [like gluten-free] please ensure that you do not take it but leave it for those who really need it.

If you have a specific dietary requirement that we have not met then please let us know in our Conference Office area and we will do our best to satisfy your need. Additionally, if there are any other questions or concerns about the food please let one of the Conference Team know so that they can deal with it for you.

We have asked you about specific allergies on your booking form so that you can be specifically catered for if you think that you may have forgotten to tell us - a quick email should solve the problem.
