Lets Dine

Freshly prepared every day

We are committed to working in partnership with our schools to provide a healthy and nutritionally-balanced meal in an enjoyable lunch time experience.

We are committed to ensuring our menus are in line with government food standards, working closely with schools to design a menu to suit individual school's ideas. Pupils are often involved in helping to create the menu, giving them a greater choice of what appears on it.

Primary schools

Our primary school menus provide a choice of two main courses (one being a vegetarian option), a choice of carbohydrates, two vegetables, a fresh salad bar, bread and a choice of desert (schools can choose to have a desert alternative option), including first bites, fresh fruit, yogurt, cheese and biscuits. 

Try your child with a school meal from Let’s Dine. Speak to your school office to get started.
