The Host’s Pantry

The Host’s Pantry

Whether it’s a special meal with loved ones, a grand dinner party or a solution for staycation dining, their luxury recipe boxes provide everything you need for the perfect meal.

Head online to choose your menu then the Host’s will source premium ingredients from their trusted suppliers and deliver them to you with their detailed hosting guide. Everything arrives in one neat package.

They curate seasonal menu choices, which can be explored on their website. You can order your box and schedule the delivery at a later time when it suits you.

On the website, you can choose one of the two or three course curated recipe boxes or build your own box to choose each course, and select how many people you are feeding.

You will learn new techniques, get to cook with quality ingredients and enjoy having all the hassle of sourcing recipes and ingredients taken away.

If you have a caravan and camping site, shepherds hut, or holiday let, they can tailor their boxes to your needs, e.g. a breakfast box.

Online Food Hall

Their online food hall is a place to order locally and internationally sourced ingredients, deli items, fresh meat and produce, hampers, and drinks to be delivered to your door, with more on offer than you would find at a local farm shop.

You can enjoy food hall quality produce with the convenience of an online delivery.

Local pubs, hotels and restaurants are using this service to get quality ingredients delivered to their venue.

Gifting

The Host’s Pantry can also be used for gifts. You can gift their curated recipe boxes or choose one of their hampers or gift vouchers.

The Host’s Pantry’s sister business, Shropshire Hamper Company, offers a selection of gifts that champion our local area. Their hampers are filled to the brim with produce and gifts from the Shropshire and Marches region, which means each hamper supports lots of brilliant independent, local food and drink businesses. There are bespoke branding options too.

Alongside our core range, we also create seasonal and limited-edition releases. All of our spirits are distilled, blended, bottled and labelled on site in Shropshire with honesty, precision and care.

In addition to our daytime experiences, we also open the distillery for monthly bar nights, where visitors and locals alike can enjoy our spirits in a relaxed, sociable setting.
