Secondary Schools
Welcome to Tiller & Hobs, our secondary school food concept. We are the trailblazer in school dining shaking up the lunchtime scene with a fresh and relevant approach. Our menu isn’t just food; it’s fuel for brilliance! We serve up balanced, wholesome meals that keep minds sharp and bodies energised.
It’s a buzzing hive of connections. Students chat, collaborate, and create memories. It’s where friendships simmer and ideas bubble up. We educate, inspire, and high-five Mother Nature, as food nourishes not just us, but the planet too.
Menus for fast growing minds and bodies
Our menu is updated on a bi-annual basis and is driven by innovation and the goal to offer nutritionally balanced meals that promotes sharp and energetic minds.
Alongside the core menu we proudly bring in seasonal specials, promotions and offers to keep the options fresh and exciting. We tune into the latest high-street trends, and you will find everything on our menu from smoky BBQ flavours through zesty tacos, fulfilling curries to yummy noodles.
Coolfood Meals
In 2024, working alongside our partner Coolfood — an initiative run by not-for-profit organisation, World Resources Institute (WRI) — we launched a world-first by including low-carbon meals into secondary school menus, to cut food-related emissions across the education sector.
Coolfood Meals are externally accredited recipes that produce at least 38% lower carbon emissions than the average meal while also meet stringent nutrient criteria. Look out for the Coolfood certification mark on our menu, enjoy a delicious and nutritious meal and take a bite out of climate change!
Our cashless solution
In schools where there are cashless systems in place, students can access their accounts at a point of sale terminal by presenting their card, or finger (in the case of biometrics) to the reader. The student’s photo appears on the screen along with the existing balance on their account.
The account can be credited in multiple ways including the following:
-
Sending cheques or cash to the school/site office or catering team (depending on the arrangement at the site)
-
Topping up via a unit on site which accepts cash and notes
We can also enable daily spend limits and an overdraft facility, both of which are agreed by the leadership team at the school/site.
For more information please speak to your school reception.
