Nutritional
At Mellors, not only do we want to provide your child with a nutritious meal, we want them to have fun! Whether its National baking week or Best of British, we will run themes to bring something new to the table for your child to try. Beyond the dining room, Mellors Development Chefs offer classes to teach children the basics of cooking. Danielle, Head of Nutrition and Food Development, delivers assemblies in schools on the importance of making healthy choices. She’ll even get them on the smoothie bike to whizz up some drinks for the class. We also have the Mellors Big Red Bus that can visit our schools to provide a truly unique dining experience!

Mellors Catering Services Hits the Big Time
Mellors Catering Services, the family-run contract caterer that operates across the North of England last night scooped the prestigious Contract Caterer of the Year award at the Cost Sector Catering Awards in London.
The Cost Sector Catering Awards provide the highlight of the foodservice and catering calendar. It offers the people who work in the industry the chance to be judged by their peers and recognised as the best. It is the highest acknowledgement of merit that can be bestowed from within the foodservice sector.
Mellors Catering Services Chief Operating Officer, Tony Trainor commented,
“This is a very well deserved award for our team who have worked hard to implement a strategic plan that has seen the company grow by 47% in the last 12 months. We now operate just under 200 contracts within the education and business & industry sectors.”
Mellors Catering Services beat both national and international companies to take the award and after a hugely successful 2016 and a fantastic start to 2017, it is clearly a force to be reckoned with and the First Choice Contract Caterer in the North.
