Catering

Aspens Services provide the meal service for our students and are a market leading contract catering company specialising in school food.

They only work in the education sector so know what their customers want. Mixing this knowledge with an understanding of what’s hot in the food world sparks creativity and excitement in their chefs. Their kitchens provide delicious home cooked food each day and cater for individual dietary requirements.

Streateries is the secondary meal offer where everyday has a theme. Featuring Global cuisines, customised offers and food on the move, which are bang up to date with the current trends whilst still ensuring that there is a place on the menu for the comfort of the familiar school dining hall favourites. Each day the menu includes as standard a street food dish, a hand held version, vegetarian/vegan choices along with a selection of sides.

The Deli Kitchen brand is for the popular standard Aspens hot and cold offers. This can range from Authentic Italian pizza and pasta, Hacienda Mexicana’s burritos, rice pots and sides and Voulez Poulet’s house rub chicken, dogs and sides through to a range of healthy sandwiches, paninis, wraps, jacket potatoes, salads, fruit and cold dessert pots.

Food allergies and intolerances

We already cater for students with various food allergies, intolerances and religious beliefs, so it is important that our students let us know about any allergies or intolerances etc. that they may have so that our catering team can advise them on their meal choice.

All of our allergen information is available on-site to comply with the EU Food Information for Consumers Regulations launched in December 2014 and all of our catering team have undergone training to incorporate this legislation.
