Residential Menu
Introduction
Welcome to the University of Gloucestershire. Baxter Storey are committed to consistently delivering
the highest standard of hospitality catering. Our food offer is intrinsically linked to the service standards
which we set, and we will deliver a prompt and discreet service to you.
We are delighted to present our Residential Menu which gives an indication of the services available.
Our menus change regularly and are influenced by the seasonality of ingredients to ensure best quality
and value.
The University of Gloucestershire has an institutional commitment to sustainability and is
a formally recognised sector leader. Our Sustainable Food Policy seeks to reduce food miles, promote
fresh and locally sourced food as well as healthy, organic, free range and Fairtrade products.
Baxter Storey has a reputation for delivering fresh, quality and sustainably sourced food. Sustainability
principles are ingrained in both our working practices and menu selections. We believe that by placing
sustainable behaviour at the heart of our business it forces the organisation to think differently, be
more creative and innovative in how it delivers its services.
We will be pleased to discuss any aspect of your catering requirements with you, and if you have any
special requests, we will do our utmost to ensure that these are accommodated. In support of this we
are always happy to tailor or create a menu to suit your budget or special occasion.
All prices quoted are per person unless otherwise stated and are based on a minimum booking of 20
covers, Monday – Friday. An additional 20% will be added if your function is on a weekend or bank
holiday and if covers are below 20. We are unable to cater for any requests lower than 10 covers..
Equipment Hire
If your event requires bespoke equipment then we will pass on the cost incurred from our supplier.
Labour
Large events (100 covers or more), and those falling outside of normal working hours may incur an
additional labour charge.
Any additional costs will be calculated prior to your event.
