🏢 Coworking & flex-office catering
One community manager. Twenty member companies. One checkout.
If you run the floor at a coworking or flex office, you are not ordering one lunch — you are ordering for a dozen different companies, on different days, with different headcounts, different dietary needs and different people to bill. Connected Catering was built for exactly that job.
The job is admin, not food
Nobody who manages a flex-office building struggles to find a caterer. They struggle to keep twelve orders, twelve budgets and twelve allergy lists straight — and then to work out who owes what.
What you are doing now
- A separate order, and a separate invoice, for every member company.
- Re-typing the same allergy list every single time.
- Chasing a caterer for a quote when the meeting is tomorrow.
- Reconciling who ordered what before you can recharge it.
- Finding out at 11:45 that one guest cannot eat anything on the table.
What Connected Catering does
- Every day planned separately — its own menu, its own headcount.
- Its own cost centre per day, so each member company is already tagged.
- One checkout, one payment, and a clean line-by-line record to recharge from.
- A price on screen before you commit. No quote, no call-back.
- Nut-free by default, halal, and labelled — so everyone eats.
How Connected Catering works
It takes about five minutes for a whole week.
1
Add a day
Date, delivery postcode and headcount. Add as many days as you need — Monday for one member, Thursday for another.
2
Tag the cost centre
Give each day its own reference — the member company, the floor, the PO number. Whatever you have to recharge against.
3
See the real price
Food and delivery, priced live for your building’s postcode. No hidden extras appearing at the end.
4
Check out once
One payment covers the lot, and each day stays itemised so your recharge is already done for you.
Why a shared building needs a nut-free kitchen
In a normal office you know everyone’s allergies. In a flex office you are feeding people you have never met, from companies you have never met, and you carry the risk anyway.
100% nut-free kitchen
Not “nut-free options”. No nuts have ever entered our kitchen — so the single most dangerous allergen in the building is simply not on your table.
Halal, on the same table
No pork and no alcohol on our premises, with halal sourcing that is independently checked. Nobody in the building gets handed a separate, lesser box.
Labelled to Natasha’s Law
Every item is labelled. Your members can read it themselves instead of asking you a question you cannot safely answer.
Vegan and gluten-free as standard
Every menu carries them, so a last-minute guest is not a crisis.
✅ Yes — a coeliac member can eat from your table
Our kitchen is dedicated nut-free — no nuts have ever entered it, so the most dangerous allergen in your building simply is not there. Gluten gets the same seriousness rather than a caveat: a separate gluten-free fryer, separate gluten-free freezers, and gluten-free food built to gluten-free recipes rather than adapted from something else. Gluten-free runs right through the menu rather than being a token option or two, and every item is labelled to Natasha’s Law. Coeliac customers order from us regularly.
What delivery costs to your building
We cook in the City, on Carter Lane. If your building is in the Square Mile, delivery is £12.50 — and free on any order over £250, which most floor-wide lunches clear easily.

Questions flex-office managers ask
Can I bill different member companies separately?
Yes — that is the point of Connected Catering. Each day gets its own cost centre reference, so when you check out the order is already itemised by member company and your recharge is done for you.
Can I order for several different days in one go?
Yes. Add as many days as you like, each with its own date, headcount and menu, and pay once at the end.
Do I need a quote first?
No. The price — food and delivery — is on screen before you commit. If you would rather just grab one lunch, use the menu directly.
Will you deliver to a specific floor or meeting room?
Yes. Put the floor and room in the delivery note. Flex buildings are big and food left at a ground-floor reception is food that goes cold.
What if a member has a severe nut allergy?
Then you are already covered. Our kitchen is dedicated nut-free — no tree nuts, no peanuts, no nut oils, in any recipe or ingredient.
What if a member is coeliac?
They can eat. We run a separate gluten-free fryer and separate gluten-free freezers, and our gluten-free food is built to gluten-free recipes rather than adapted. Gluten-free runs right through the menu, and every item is labelled.
How much notice do you need?
Order by 2pm for next-day delivery, Monday to Friday.
Stop running twelve orders. Run one.
