Dining

Food is one of life’s true pleasures, and our expert kitchen team prepares the finest quality nutritious meals, guaranteeing that all preferences and dietary requirements are met, and that particular favourites can be enjoyed time and time again. The preferences and best interests of our residents are always at the forefront of all we do, and so residents are presented with choices from what they wish to eat, down to where they would prefer to enjoy their meals. Our home facilitates residents to have their meals wherever they wish, from the shared dining spaces to the privacy of their own rooms, and even in the private garden when the weather allows.

Family and friends are welcome to dine with us and share mealtimes whenever desired. From Afternoon Tea to a traditional Sunday dinner in ‘Swift’, our private dining room; families can continue to share special occasions and make wonderful memories together.

Healthy, Nutritious Meals

Our goal is to offer an ever-changing menu made with high-quality ingredients. We take great pride in producing healthy food that not only provides nutritional value but is also great tasting. All meals are freshly prepared in-house each day, are packed full of flavour and include all residents’ favourites. In addition to standard breakfast, lunch and tea meal times, residents are also able to enjoy a range of lighter meals and snacks throughout the day.

Afternoon Tea For All

We encourage residents to invite their loved ones to Alexander House to spend the afternoon or evening with them; from partaking in Arts & Crafts sessions to coffee catch-ups. To further enhance a visit from friends and family, we offer Afternoon Tea upon request. This wonderful afternoon treat allows residents and their guests to really sit back and enjoy themselves over delicious food and hot drinks. This year-round offering is available to all residents and can be enjoyed outdoors when the weather permits.

Visit Our Café Lounge

Our Café Lounge is a peaceful, open-plan area where unlimited hot drinks and regular home-baked treats are available to everyone. This tranquil area of the home is ideal for residents to use to catch up with loved ones over afternoon tea or sit and read a book. We understand the importance of comfortable shared areas for residents and our Café Lounge provides wonderful opportunities for socialising.

A Safe Shared Space to Socialise

It’s important to us that all residents are provided with ample opportunities to socialise around the home. Our Café Lounge is a wonderfully cosy space that provides just that; a safe space for residents to socialise, play board games and enjoy catch-ups with loved ones over endless cups of tea and coffee and delicious home-baked treats.
