Bespoke receptions & buffets

From an elegant drinks reception prior to the main event, to an alfresco summer buffet on the lawn, we can serve what’s just right for you and your guests, in almost any setting around the College.

Finger buffets, drinks, canapés… the choice is yours

Our flexibility at Girton means we can hold drinks receptions and buffets for you almost anywhere across the site, indoors or out. We can cater for all guests, with a wide menu selection to choose from – you can even design your own buffet. Our staff are extremely experienced with this genre of catering as it’s a regular part of College life: the Mistress’s canapé receptions are legendary!

You may wish to build a buffet or reception into another event at Girton. Drinks receptions prior to dinner, or before an evening lecture, are very popular, as are traditional English afternoon teas in the Stanley Library.
