Searcys at the Gherkin reports on an exceptional year of events business and look forward to the new decade. This year alone, the venue hosted over 1,400 events and 22,614 guests across the top four floors of this stunning landmark. More than 15% of all the events held in 2019 took place over breakfast, reflecting an increase from 4% last year. This shift away from traditional client dinners sees a growing demand for breakfasts, and Searcys has introduced a new sky-high “Breakfast at Searcys” meeting package for corporate and private events.
With three different packages to choose from, the breakfast menus were created by Executive Chef Shaun Rowlands to showcase the best of British seasonal fare. Menu highlights include “Norfolk smoked streaky bacon on brioche bun”, a “Breakfast board of cheese, with assorted Suffolk cold meats and Searcys smoked salmon or a “vegetarian full English, with field mushrooms, grilled plum tomatoes, spinach, baked beans, avocado”. A healthy selection of dishes such as “homemade granola, natural yogurt and honey” or a “Traditional blueberry porridge” is also on offer.
Designed to provide the best sky-high business breakfast in the City, the packages are available in The Gherkin’s suite of private dining rooms and also at the panoramic Iris Bar, at level 40. Menus can be accompanied by unlimited 100% coffee or tea. For a lavish business experience, upgrade to include bottles of Searcys signature cuvee.
