Patients, visitors and staff at Wycombe Hospital can now enjoy the Peabodys experience, with the opening of a new coffee shop providing high-quality, freshly prepared food and drink in the hospital.  

This is part of Medirest’s wider long-term contract with the wider Buckinghamshire Healthcare Trust, where we deliver services including patient catering, portering and retail. 

Customers will find an array of freshly prepared foods to suit every taste, including focaccias, sandwiches, salads, golden arancini and classic lasagne. Healthy snacks, smoothies and ice creams are available too.

The space within the hospital has been transformed into a welcoming environment with digital ordering kiosks and new energy saving equipment, like the new stylish multideck.  

Neil Mitchell, Business Director, Medirest said: “We have a longstanding partnership with Buckinghamshire Healthcare NHS Trust, so it's fantastic to continue evolving our retail offer and enhancing the experience for everyone who visits, works in or receives care at Wycombe Hospital.

Peabodys is a well-loved brand with a strong reputation for delivering high-quality food and drink and we're delighted to bring that experience to the hospital. We have no doubt that the new offer will provide greater choice, convenience and a welcoming space to take a break during their day."

Claudia Mascino, Managing Director of Peabodys, said: “We are excited to bring Peabodys to Wycombe Hospital and introduce our food and drinks to the community of patients, visitors and colleagues.

We are passionate about creating food and drink offers - providing fresh, high-quality choices and outstanding service that can make a real difference to someone’s day. We look forward to becoming part of the hospital community and offering a welcoming space where people can take a break.”

Peabodys was founded in 1997 and has built a reputation for serving hospitals across England with food and beverage offers tailored to healthcare environments.

Since becoming part of Compass One (which is part of Compass Group UK & Ireland) in 2024, the brand has continued to expand its presence across healthcare settings and recently the first Peabodys within the defence estate was launched as part of Compass’ ESS sector.
