Catering Expressions of Interest Sought
Chislehurst Golf Club is a thriving members’ club with a highly desirable location in the centre of one of London’s most exclusive suburbs. It possesses an enviable reputation for its sociable, busy and beautiful environment, and also hosts a large number of external events, particularly meetings and wakes.
Whilst sitting in a green urban oasis, within the Garden of England, the club is less than 20 minutes from central London by train and less than an hour from the south coast.
In addition to its location, Chislehurst Golf Club profits from its historic grade II* listed clubhouse, Camden Place – once the home of Napoleon III. Both members and outside events benefit from this unique, splendid backdrop. The club is able to offer a variety of event types within the clubhouse’s impressive rooms and public areas, including a wood-panelled dining room of great historic importance.
Camden Place can cater for up to 250 people inside, and a similar number outside.
The club currently has a successful relationship with an outside caterer that provides both day-to-day services to the club and to all member and non-member events. The club wishes however to explore options to extend and enhance its catering offering, including the potential establishment of a fine dining restaurant within the clubhouse, with access to both members and non-members.
The annual turnover for catering is approximately £300k and we have no doubt, that a proactive and creative team could achieve £500k+.
Chislehurst GC is more than a golf club. We believe that a substantial opportunity exists to extend the current catering services to both a wider audience and capitalise on a large and loyal membership. We would like to explore an innovative, flexible, and long-term structure that makes the most of the club’s many attributes (including extensive, free parking) and creates a real local reputation for outstanding cuisine.
We welcome expressions of possible interest from chefs, event caterers, club caterers, restaurateurs, specialist wine merchants etc. We would be pleased to talk to parties interested in either the club’s entire catering opportunity (day-to-day, events, club functions, fine dining) or one part of this. Please complete the form below and your details will be forwarded to the CEO of Chislehurst Golf Club.
