Edwards & Blake was selected ahead of other national contract caterers to provide a food service in the restaurant from 7am to 4pm at Domino headquarters at Bar Hill, Cambridge.
The restaurant is open all day with main servings at 7am for breakfast, mid-morning for a factory break and midday for lunch.
The service was launched in early March following a full restaurant refurbishment managed by Edwards and Blake. The re-fit was completed in four days and included new service counters, flooring and new furniture. Edwards and Blake also operate a smaller café operation for employees in a separate building on the Domino site.
Uptake in the restaurant has increased significantly following the re-launch with the fresh, innovative menu and new style facility and the dining room is already at full seating capacity.
Caroline Blake, Director of Edwards & Blake comments: “We’re delighted to be working with Domino to provide their catering and to be offering employees a broad selection of delicious and nutritious food through the day. The response has been extremely positive and the increase in numbers speak for themselves. We pride ourselves on offering high standards and providing reasonably-priced but exceptional food that is locally sourced and freshly cooked every day. It’s all topped off with excellent customer service and happy staff.”
Caroline continues: “We worked closely with Domino to offer a cost-effective and dynamic service and will continue to do so. No one-size fits all; our mission is to provide a flexible and tailored approach with clients. We have a passion for food and will always stay true to our core values.”
Vicki Sanderson, Group Human Resources Director of Domino said: ““We are absolutely delighted with our new restaurant facility. We have a vibrant, lively new restaurant which looks modern and clean. We’re being served a delicious variety of food ranging from welcoming breakfast items, to mid-morning snacks, lunch and afternoon tea.”
Vicki continues: “Edwards and Blake have taken the time to understand and listen to our employee requirements thereby providing meals which can either be taken as a quick bite such as the ‘Street Food’ range or can be eaten sitting with colleagues to enjoy a full English breakfast or delicious lunch. The quality of food is exceptional and the taste and presentation is first class. Our employees feel motivated and valued that Domino has taken the time to find a partner like Edwards and Blake to work with to provide this important employee benefit. A world class team in every respect!”
