We have a list of recommended caterers who offer everything from pie and mash or afternoon teas, to fine dining, sharing platters and BBQs.
We ask that you please use one of our recommended caterers, and can happily share this list with you. Just email us at enquiries@thirsklodgebarns.com for more information.
Please note that any weddings booked for 2026 or beyond will have to use our in-house caterers.
For weddings; we ask that you have a ‘Wedding Breakfast’; and then offer something smaller in the evening (such as pizzas, a cheese platter, or your cake!) as guests get hungry with so much dancing! It is important to have the Wedding Breakfast to help structure the day, give guests a chance to sit down, and also to fill them up ahead of the evening reception.
We provide all of the drinks at Thirsk Lodge Barns; and before each event we will talk through drinks options with you.
For weddings, it is recommended that some drinks are pre-purchased for the drinks reception after your ceremony and for the Wedding Breakfast. The bar will be open for guests to purchase further drinks throughout the day, and you are welcome to arrange a bar tab as well should you wish.
We have our own bar staff. Depending on the size of your event, we will arrange the number of staff required for a smooth running of your drinks throughout the day.
Our bar staff is included in the Barn Hire Price.
