Most company gifts are things: a hamper, a bottle, something with a logo on it. A meal is remembered for longer, and it is one of the few gifts that suits a client, a long-serving member of the team and their partner equally well.

What to give.

A gift voucher can be spent across everything at Royal Maritime House: lunch or dinner at RT Café Grill, afternoon tea, Robert’s tasting menu at Thompson’s, or a private dinner in The Cellar. It can be used in one go or over several visits, and it is valid for 12 months.

AmountWhat it covers
£50Lunch for one, or drinks and small plates on the terrace
£70Afternoon tea for two
£100Dinner for one, or two courses for two at RT Café Grill
£150Thompson’s tasting menu for one
£200Dinner for two at RT Café Grill
£250Thompson’s tasting menu for two

Vouchers start at £25, so a smaller thank you works too.

Ordering for a team or a client list.

For one or two vouchers, the gift voucher page takes a couple of minutes. For a company order, it is easier to send the team one email:

  • How many vouchers, and the amount for each
  • Whether they should be emailed or printed and posted
  • The names, and the message you’d like on each
  • How you’d like to pay

Email info@robertthompson.co.uk or call 01983 526118, and the team will take it from there.

Timing.

Emailed vouchers arrive within minutes, so they work right up to the last day before the office closes. Printed vouchers are posted for £4.95, UK only, so leave time for the post in December.

Or bring them together.

If the gift is really a thank you for the year, a dinner for the whole team in one of our private rooms might do the job better. The Christmas party guide covers December, and client dinners in The Cellar covers the rest of the year.

For clients off the Island.

For anyone too far away to come to Ryde, YouBeChef sends restaurant meal kits from our kitchen to their door, and it sells e-gift cards too.
