| CATERING SERVICES If you prefer to dine at home let Ground come to you. A choice of platters to serve many, dinning for a few or a selection of cheeses or dessert at the end of dinner. For the office; arrange a morning, afternoon tea, lunch or dinner. We can discuss your requirements, and tailor our menu to meet your needs and budget. GROUND’S EVENINGS IN Monthly Wine Tastings feature a theme. We chose only the best local and imported wines; provide the wine aficionado, a tasty treat prepared in-house and a relaxed atmosphere. Come along for an evening or join our wine club for a year’s membership. Cooking Classes hosted by our very own Will and Jenny, or by a special guest chef invited to share their knowledge. Classes are small and relaxed. Learn the secrets of international cuisine; dine on the offerings and take away a menu to prepare and impress your family and friends. COFFEE To fit with Ground’s philosophy of ‘Community’ we use locally roasted beans from the Lyttelton Coffee Company – blended especially for Ground - premium organic and fair-trade. Come in, sit down and enjoy a cup. Take it away, or take home beans whole or ground to your liking.
