Our Sustainability Commitments

• In recent years we have grown and improved our range of Plant Based menu items, while ensuring all ingredients are still sourced as locally as possible and maintaining good value for money. We do not charge surcharges to swap to Plant Based milk or cheese. • We believe that our sustainable responsibilities are not limited to the food we serve and how we serve it, but also the way we run our business. Our staff are all from Brighton and the surrounding area, and always car share as much as possible. Within the company we have 4 vans of varying sizes and only use multiple vans for multiple events. • All waste is removed from any venue we work at and then sorted and disposed of / recycled accordingly at our base in Woodingdean. • All our single use packaging and cutlery is recycled and biodegradable to ensure that we are as sustainable as we possibly can be.
