What is a grazing table (and why it is such a good idea)?

Beautifully Styled Grazing Tables That Impress Every Guest

A grazing table is a long, low table set with abundant platters of cheese, charcuterie, fresh fruit, salads, breads and sweet treats, styled so your guests can graze at their own pace. Instead of plates being handed out from behind a counter, people help themselves, come back for more and share food in a relaxed, sociable way.

Grazing tables are ideal for mixed tastes and ages because there's always something for everyone. Kids can grab fruit and nibbles, adults enjoy artisanal cheeses and charcuterie, and everyone can build a plate exactly how they like it. We fully set up, style and return to clear down so hosting feels effortless.

When you book S42, we bring the full setup: boards, bowls, napkins, table styling and all serving pieces needed to create a generous, visually striking table.

A Grazing Experience Designed to Make Hosting Easy

Perfect for easy entertaining

Each grazing table is designed as a balanced feast with fresh local produce and seasonal ingredients so your table feels rooted in Derbyshire.

Savoury grazing platters, cheese and charcuterie
Our savoury grazing platters focus on flavour and variety. Expect artisanal cheeses, charcuterie, dips, olives, crunchy vegetables, homemade salads, breads, crackers and breadsticks — all styled with height and colour.

We also include chutneys, nuts, relishes, fresh herbs and small plates so guests can graze easily along the full table. Cheese-focused grazing tables with Derbyshire cheeses and baked brie are available on request.

Brunch, sweet treats and vegan-friendly grazing boxes
Our brunch grazing tables include pastries, fruit, yoghurt pots, granola and mini breakfast baps — ideal for baby showers and morning celebrations.

If you're adding desserts, our sweet grazing boxes bring brownies, traybakes and mini puddings. Vegan options are always available, and you can choose a fully vegan grazing table or a mixed table with clearly labelled dishes.

We're happy to help you pick themes, flavours and styling for your occasion.
