Every precaution is taken to avoid cross-contamination, however, we do handle various allergens in the environment in which we create all of our products so we cannot guarantee them to be 100% allergen-free. We can prevent items being present on a board (e.g. nuts) but recommend that anybody with severe allergies avoid our products.

We are happy to cater to reasonable dietary requirement requests with sufficient notice, most notably, vegetarian and gluten-free. All requests affecting ingredients should be clarified before a final quote is met and the first payment issued.

Booking with Savery Grazing begins with an enquiry through one of the contact options provided on the website. We endeavor to respond to enquiries within 48 hours to further determine the details necessary to provide a quote.

A booking is secured upon receipt of the first payment.

When a quoted price is agreed upon an invoice will be created and sent via Quickbooks. 

Private/Personal bookings should be paid via Direct Bank Transfer using the details on the invoice. For Corporate bookings a payment link will be included.

Due to the number of enquiries we receive, we unfortunately cannot hold dates until a portion of the invoice total is paid. For orders over £100 we ask for 50% in advance to secure the date. For orders under £100 we ask for the invoice to be paid in full.

Some of our bookings require a deposit for the equipment that will be provided by Savery Grazing. This will be laid out clearly on the invoice and included within the first payment, however, this will be returned to you after the safe collection of our equipment.

The cancellation period for orders under £100 ends 7 days prior to the event or delivery date. For orders over £100 this is extended to 14 days.

Due to the nature of the business any cancellations made outside of the cancellation period will not be eligible for a refund of any payments made (excluding equipment deposits); this includes scenarios where the initial payment has been made outside of the cancellation period (for example, due to shorter notice given or a delayed replies regarding details).

Cancellations within the cancellation period will be eligible for a full refund, unless explicit effort has been made on our part to meet special requests or source special ingredients.

We understand plans can change and there may be reasons to change the date of the event; in such cases we would require a minimum of 7 day’s notice. We cannot however guarantee availability of the new date regardless of notice given and thus the booking would need to be considered for cancellation under the cancellation terms above.

If a new date is agreed upon, it may be necessary for a revised invoice to be issued detailing the remaining balance with new payment dates.

Our standard delivery fees are 75p per mile for prepared platters or £1.50 per mile for Grazing Tables.

Depending on the event/delivery time and date, further costs may be added to the rate per mile, such as;

  • Bank Holidays, National Holidays, 20th Dec to 3rd Jan will result in an additional £0.75 per mile.
  • Any day before 8am or after 8pm will result in an additional £0.75 per mile.

For large orders, repeat customers, or orders within our direct local area (S17, Dore) we may offer complimentary free delivery at our discretion.

Please note, that all our prepared platters are available for collection for free.

 

All food is kept chilled during transport. To comply with the UK Food Standards Agency it is the responsibility of the client to dispose of any of our platters and tables after 4 hours if kept unrefrigerated. Savery Grazing will not be held responsible for any adverse reactions to our food consumed after this time. All of our boxes should be kept refrigerated and consumed within 24 hours.

Each platter comes on a refrigerator-sized board so they can be stored for one day, if needed, before your event. For the best taste, quality, and texture, we’d recommend serving your grazing platter on the day of delivery. Simply take out of the fridge one hour before serving to allow the cheese and meats to come to room temperature. 

We kindly ask that you place your order a few weeks in advance, as this gives us plenty of notice and time to discuss all the details with you. This also gives you plenty of time to secure the date or should you wish to make any changes (see our cancellation policy).

If you need your delicious food sooner, please get in touch with us and we’ll do our best to accommodate. 

Please note that initial payments are non-refundable outside of the cancellation period which can vary depending on the size of your order; this may be necessary to consider when booking.

When making a booking over 6 months in advance, we’d hate for there to be any surprises nearer the time of your event with increasing prices. This is why bookings made over 6 months in advance may be subject to an “advanced booking fee”; an addition to the overall cost to lock the prices as-is.

This is beneficial to both us and you the customer as you get peace of mind that what you have been invoiced will not change, while we will have covered our increased future costs.

Yes! Although we offer both small and large charcuterie boards, we can also make bespoke boards if you are catering for a corporate, wedding, or other large event.
