Rochester Cathedral

Rochester Cathedral is England’s second oldest cathedral, having been founded in 604AD, with the present building dating back to 1080. The Tea Rooms located within the 18th century Deanery, and set within stunning gardens, are open throughout the year providing a wide range of refreshments from snacks to full meals and beverages.

We worked with and advised the Cathedral on a detailed review of their in-house catering operations along with providing recommendations to optimise its potential, both in terms of the financial return to the Cathedral and the overall visitor experience.

Advice & support has included:

• Detailed operational review of visitor catering
• Visitor research profiling
• Environmental analysis
• Financial review
• Staffing structure review
• Design considerations
