Bike & Boot is a new brand of leisure hotel.

The brief for the kitchen, buffet and bar was to design a facility that would be easy to operate, clean and maintain providing modern, tasty dishes prepared by one chef and a support team possibly without catering experience.

They would serve breakfast, lunch and dinner plus snacks through the day. The menu would also need to satisfy guests who enjoyed an active lifestyle, as Bike and Boot suggests. Breakfast would be primarily a self service, buffet design.

The bar should be long and easy to operate by one to three staff, serving drinkers, diners and all wines, effectively the dispense bar as well.
