2 course dinner at Shifnal Golf Club | Event catering

The Brief
The client was looking for a two-course dinner with choice, something that felt considered without being overcomplicated.
With 40 guests to serve, the key was balance:
Keep the menu appealing to everyone
Ensure smooth, efficient service
Deliver quality, plated food without delays
We agreed on two choices per course, giving guests flexibility while keeping the kitchen running clean and controlled.
The Menu
A simple structure done properly always wins.
Guests were offered a choice on the night, allowing for a more personal dining experience without slowing service.
Main Course (Choice of Two)
Chargrilled chicken breast with seasonal sides and a rich, balanced sauce
Slow-cooked beef dish designed for depth of flavour and consistency across service
Dessert (Choice of Two)
A lighter option to finish
A more indulgent dessert for those wanting something richer
(Menus like this are all about contrast — something for everyone, without overloading the kitchen or the guest.)
The Service
Serving 40 covers with plated food is all about timing.
At Shifnal Golf Club, the layout worked in our favour — a clean service flow from kitchen to table meant we could keep everything moving without rushing.
Plates left the kitchen hot and consistent
Guests were served efficiently across the room
No long waits between courses
This is where experience really comes into play — knowing how to pace service so it feels seamless rather than rushed.
Why This Style Works
A two-course meal with choice is one of the most effective formats for events like this.
It gives:
Enough variety for guests
Control for the kitchen
A smoother, more relaxed service overall
For golf clubs, corporate dinners, and private events, it’s often the sweet spot between a buffet and a full three-course plated meal.
The Result
A full room, happy guests, and a service that ran exactly as planned.
No drama, no delays — just well-executed food delivered properly.
And that’s always the goal.

Dinner for 80 at a local Rugby club – Catering in Wolverhampton

Dinner for 80 at a local Rugby club – Catering in Wolverhampton

Rugby club catering in Wolverhampton. Last week we delivered a plated three-course dinner for 80 guests at a local Rugby club — working with limited kitchen space and equipment, but still executing a smooth and efficient service from start to finish.

Events like this are where experience really counts. With three choices per course, timing and organisation are everything. Every plate needs to go out hot, consistent, and at the right time—without disrupting the flow of the evening.

Despite the constraints, we set up a streamlined service that allowed us to deliver all three courses efficiently, keeping standards high while maintaining a relaxed atmosphere for guests.

This is the kind of catering we specialise in—taking on logistical challenges and delivering quality food, properly executed. Whether it’s a sports club, corporate function, or private event, we bring the same level of focus and control to every service.

We regularly cater across Shropshire, Telford, Wolverhampton and surrounding areas, providing everything from large plated dinners to more informal catering styles.

If you’re planning an event and need a team that can deliver under pressure, feel free to get in touch
