Where to get nice buffet food

8 replies

Planning to get some buffet food for a small party we're having for my little boy's birthday- only a few kids and a handful of adults. In the past I've got M&S sandwich platters and other things from there, but they don't seem to do those any more. Wish I could make it all myself but just zero time at the moment. Anyone have any ideas of anywhere that does platter type party food that makes it simple?? I know I could go shopping and buy lots of different bits and pieces, it's just timing wise in the lead up I have so little time I'm trying to make it easy, and also would like the food to be quite nice! Any tips at all hugely appreciated!!

I think most of the big supermarkets do sandwich platters these days
Morrisons
sainsburyss
I'm sure the others do do!

Morrisons brill value. Much cheaper than Sainsburys

Another vote for Morrisons. It's made in store so likely fresher than anything made off site in a factory.

Do you have any coffee shops locally? Most here will do platters if you give them a few days notice.

Costco plus a massive cake there ….

I think you can order online from M&S in advance and collect.
Waitrose do it too x

Was in M&S at lunchtime and they definitely had sandwich platters out, but would be tempted to just ask a nice local cafe or deli.

Hire a caterer . If you go on Add to Event you can specify your budget ie £3 to £5 per head. Lots of caterers are willing to drop off a nice little buffet even for a dozen people. I know because I do loads of these!
