Dining

Here at Valerian Court Care Home, the dining options are endless. We have an in-house chef and kitchen team that offer seasonal menus inclusive of all dietary requirements and preferences. Our fine dining plays a big part in providing residents with a wonderful living experience each and every day. There is a huge amount on offer to our residents, with a cooked breakfast, cereals and toast followed by a 3-course lunch with different options and various small bites for dinner.

Residents can receive their meals in various areas of the home, whether that’s their own private bedroom, one of the communal dining rooms or the private dining room. When the weather allows, we also have balconies to dine outdoors, overlooking pleasant views. For those who want to graze between meal times, each floor and our Bistro has a variety of snacks, fruit and cake available to enjoy whenever it suits them most.

A Menu For Every Season

Our kitchen team goes above and beyond to provide high-quality dishes during every meal. Our seasonal menus are created with residents in mind, taking preferences and any dietary requirements into consideration. When we make new menus, all residents are given one and have a few days to cross off any options they don’t like, and then chefs will alter it accordingly. All dishes can be customised to a person’s likes and dislikes; our wonderful staff ensures the best dining experience possible.

We also understand the importance of maintaining the meals that residents love most, so a core part of our menu includes Fish and Chips on a Friday and a Roast Dinner on a Sunday. National days and events are celebrated in addition to our typical menu, allowing residents to explore new culinary interests as well as enjoy much-loved dishes.

Dining Tailored to Your Preferences

At Valerian Court, we provide residents with the option to eat their food wherever they feel most comfortable. Whether that’s dining in one of our communal dining areas, spending time with loved ones in the private dining room, eating in their own rooms or dining outside on the rooftop garden when the weather permits. We want meal times to be enjoyable always therefore we encourage residents to do what makes them feel most comfortable.

On Fridays, we hold a baking club as part of our all-inclusive activities programme, where residents can get involved in making their favourite treats. This is a common favourite at Valerian Court and always gives a delicious end product to enjoy alongside their dinner or to share with loved ones.
