Searcys appointed new catering partner at 116 Pall Mall
From September, Searcys will manage all catering and service provision across the venue, in a five-year agreement with the IoD at 116 Pall Mall. Searcys will also support us in the further development of commercial events, bringing their experience in the sales and marketing of premium event venues across London.
In true Searcys style, the company will focus on providing quality catering and service across the venue, from refreshed brasserie menus which will champion seasonal British produce, to a new wine bar concept. For members, a new food and drink menu of signature dishes will be available in the members’ lounge, including great artisan coffee and home-made bakes, as well as more substantial lunch options.
In September, 116 Pall Mall will open its doors for retail customers at the weekend for the first time, serving a quintessentially British afternoon tea every Saturday from 2pm. Guests will enjoy the grandeur of the Morning Room, with its opulent artwork and stunning views of Waterloo Place and Pall Mall.
The partnership will see the introduction of new event and wedding packages to support and develop 116 Pall Mall as a London event destination. Available for meetings, weddings, conferences and celebrations, packages will be tailored to members and external event organisers, alongside added experiences of wine tastings and masterclasses.
Jonathan Geldart, Director General of the Institute of Directors, said: “As we begin to put the last year behind us, I am delighted that we are partnering with Searcys to ensure that IoD members and visitors to 116 Pall Mall alike are able to experience the very best food and drink in our historic Georgian venue.”
Commenting on the appointment, Searcys Managing Director Paul Jackson said: “We are honoured to have been appointed as caterers for the prestigious 116 Pall Mall. Both Searcys and 116 Pall Mall have an incredible heritage and share the same commitment to quality service and guest experience. Hospitality remains pivotal in the social and economic recovery to our city, and with our expertise of running restaurants and events, we look forward to working with the team to create sleek and memorable experiences to realise the venue’s full potential and enhance our guests’ experience. We can’t wait to welcome the members and guests through the doors and showcase this magnificent building in its full glory.”
