Sodexo Live! will continue to operate the museum’s restaurant and café, building on two decades of shared commitment to high quality service at the historic London museum. The Wallace Café & Restaurant, open daily from 10am to 5pm, offers seasonal dishes, cakes and pastries, and classic cream teas.
The menu includes dishes inspired by the museum’s exhibitions such as Caravaggio’s Roasted Fruits ‘La Canestra di Frutta’ dessert. Afternoon tea is a signature element of the offer and has featured themes such as Grayson Perry.
Sustainability and social impact are key pillars of the renewed agreement. Food waste is managed through the company’s WasteWatch programme, enabling the kitchen teams to track, monitor and reduce food waste, supporting the broader environmental commitments of both organisations.
Opening up employment opportunities is also of great importance to both, at The Wallace Collection, Sodexo Live! partners with the charity Social Bite to create employment pathways for people affected by homelessness.
Claire Morris, chief executive of Sodexo Live! UK & Ireland, said: “Over two decades, we have worked closely with the museum serving food and hospitality to enhance the visitor experience at this extraordinary London cultural institution.
“As we enter the next phase of our partnership, we look forward to building on that legacy by elevating the experience even further, creating exceptional food moments for the museum’s daily visitors and hospitality guests.”
