What are my options if I want catering at my event?

This depends on what type of catering you are looking to provide at your event. Catering in the School can either be provided by LSE Catering Services, with additional services being provided by the School's two approved outside caterers, Richmond Caterers and Sands. School organisational units can also provide their own 'informal hospitality', the details of this can be found below.

Catering by LSE Catering Services

  • All licensed catering areas listed below (including the Director's Dining Room, Chairman's Dining Room, Senior Common Room and Staff Dining Room) are available for catering purposes only and must be fully serviced by LSE Catering Services.
  • Listed below are the services available and maximum capacities for licensed areas/rooms.  Please note: these areas/rooms must be booked through LSE for You or by contacting the Conference Office at conference@lse.ac.uk.
  • View the LSE Catering menus available for these venues 
     
  • Orders should be made as early as possible - a minimum of ten days in advance of receptions, lunches, dinners etc and three days for beverage, breakfast, sandwich services etc. Catering will always aim to provide your catering request but there are times when they may be fully committed and therefore it is advisable to book as far ahead as possible.
  • Orders must be made using the electronic bookings system with the method of payment details completed and authorised before an order can be accepted. 
     
  • If you have any amendments to numbers then please update Catering by noon on the previous working day. Late cancellations may be charged at full price.
  • LSE Catering Services can deliver to most rooms in all LSE buildings on the Houghton Street site.  If you let catering know when your meeting will finish, they will come and clear the crockery.
