Planning your boardroom hospitality
Let the meeting agenda drive the service
A closed board session has different needs from a working lunch with presentations. Tell us when the room can be accessed, whether service must pause during confidential discussions, and which breaks are fixed. This helps the team scope a suitable format without interruptions to the meeting.
Specify hospitality, not just a menu
Explain whether you need delivery only, a laid-out buffet or attended service. Confirm the available tables, crockery, serving equipment and clearing arrangements in the quote. For visiting guests, give one host contact who can approve changes without circulating confidential meeting material.
Plan refreshments across the whole agenda
A full-day meeting may need several refreshment points rather than one large delivery. Share dietary requirements and the final headcount process, then agree the service windows. The service scope, equipment and any staffing should be documented before the meeting day.
