Feeding healthy
minds at every stage

Where we work

Having experienced one of the large catering companies in the Independent School sector, P&H came in as a breath of fresh air. Regular dialogue, an open and honest approach and total transparency has made the working relationship at one with our local and community-spirited approach. Local purchasing of fresh, quality ingredients adds to the satisfaction level of both pupils and parents.

It has been a delight to watch this project come to fruition. In P&H, The Mall has found a collaborative and highly receptive partner that genuinely cares about the needs of our boys. Following a seamless mobilisation, our dining experience has become extremely positive, social and enjoyable, and P&H are making every effort to engage with our pupils and staff, whilst considering the environment and contributing to the health and wellbeing education of the pupils.
