At Philos, we believe that great food brings people together. That’s why our event catering service is built on fresh ingredients, thoughtful presentation, and a commitment to making your special occasion truly memorable. Whether you’re hosting a relaxed garden party, a corporate lunch, a wedding, or an intimate family gathering, we offer a delicious range of catering options to suit any event.

Our menu is crafted fresh each day using high-quality, locally sourced produce, and everything we serve is prepared with care in our Ruddington kitchen. From artisan grazing boards to elegant canapés and traditional sandwich platters, our food doesn’t just taste great — it looks beautiful too.

We offer a wide selection of event catering options designed to cater for both casual and formal occasions. Popular choices include:

Grazing Boards & Grazing Tables – A feast for the eyes and the palate, our beautifully arranged boards feature a selection of cured meats, artisan cheeses, fresh fruits, antipasti, breads, crackers, and homemade dips. Perfect for weddings, birthdays, and social events where you want guests to mingle and enjoy food at their own pace.

Canapés – Ideal for receptions and evening functions, our bite-sized canapés are as visually striking as they are flavourful. We can tailor selections to suit dietary needs and themes, offering a balance of meat, vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options.

Traditional Sandwich Lunches – Great for business meetings or informal gatherings, our sandwich platters are generously filled with a variety of classic and contemporary flavours. Accompanied by savoury bites, fresh salads or homemade sausage rolls, these lunches are far from ordinary.

Afternoon Teas & Cream Teas – A Philos favourite! Perfect for baby showers, hen dos, or relaxed afternoon events, our afternoon teas include delicate finger sandwiches, freshly baked scones with clotted cream and jam, and a tempting selection of cakes and sweet treats. All served with premium teas, and optionally, fizz!

No two events are the same — that’s why we work closely with you to understand your needs, guest numbers, dietary requirements, and preferred style. We can deliver and set up your catering on-site, or you’re welcome to collect from our deli, depending on the size and nature of your event.

Our friendly team will guide you through menu choices, and we’re happy to recommend quantities and combinations that will work best for your guests. If you’re not sure where to start, just get in touch — we’re here to help
