GLOBAL VILLAGE CAFE
GIVING REFUGEES TRAINING & EMPLOYMENT.
The Global Village Café is run by a Board of Directors including two refugees. Two private donations and a grant from Lancaster Council enabled the project to begin and we are now in regular demand providing catering at numerous events.
It is hoped in the future that we will have our own premises not only providing food from around the world but also offering international cookery courses for the general public. Plans also include links with training providers so that the training provided can lead to qualifications.
We are committed to paying The Real Living Wage to Refugees and respecting the planet.

We have hired the Global Village Cafe to cater at several events. The food is always delicious and professionally prepared. We have not yet had a single person who hasn’t liked it!
‘The food provided was better than we could have imagined. All the guests commented on how fantastic everything tasted and the meat-eaters didn’t even notice it was all vegan. The variety of food (salads, stew, cous cous) meant everyone was happy. And having someone take all the stress out of cooking for family and friends was brilliant!’
We found Global Village Cafe to be very professional when they worked with us to plan our lunch party for 40 guests. So we were able to start the day with no concerns about how the day would go.
Their attention to detail and willingness to source appropriate ingredients was impressive as was their care about dietry requirements.
Our guests thought that the chefs provided them with a delicious and memorable meal and we felt they excelled and exceeded our expectations.They left the kitchen spotless.
We were so glad that Global Village Cafe agreed to take on the cafe for our annual potato day festival. We really enjoyed them being part of the event. The food was very tasty with many creative ways of presenting potatoes in new ways which we had asked for. There were many, many positive comments on how delicious the food tasted as well as looking great. In particular the attention to detail and the care taken in preparing the food was really impressive. Even better than the fabulous food though was the wonderful atmosphere in the kitchen, the enthusiasm and good humour were infectious despite the very real pressures of creating such a large quantity of food. I would very happily recommend these lovely people. You are in for a treat.
We really appreciated the lovely food, and the care that was taken to cope with dietary needs and preferences. We were really glad to have our food supplied by The Global Village Cafe, which not only resulted in great catering for us, but also fitted really well with our testimonies to social responsibility.
