At The Hollies, we believe that mealtimes are about much more than food—they are an important part of daily life, bringing people together and creating opportunities to socialise, celebrate and enjoy good company.
All of our meals are freshly prepared on site by our dedicated team of cooks using quality ingredients. We do not rely on outsourced catering services, allowing us to create our own seasonal menus that offer variety, choice and home-cooked favourites throughout the year.
Food also plays a central role in the celebrations we enjoy together. From Valentine’s Day, St Patrick’s Day, Mother’s Day and Father’s Day to Easter, Bonfire Night and our festive Christmas celebrations, our kitchen team creates special menus and themed treats to make every occasion memorable. We also host a popular monthly takeaway evening in our Coffee Shop, giving residents the opportunity to enjoy a fun and relaxed dining experience.
Residents are always offered a choice of meals at every sitting. If someone would prefer something different from the daily menu, our team will happily provide an alternative wherever possible. We cater for all dietary requirements, including allergies, intolerances and specialist diets, and our staff are fully trained to ensure every meal is prepared safely and to individual needs.
We encourage residents to dine together in our newly refurbished dining room, where soft background music creates a welcoming atmosphere. Mealtimes are a chance to enjoy delicious food, catch up with friends and make every dining experience a social and enjoyable part of the day.

“There is no sincerer love than the love of food”
