19th Hospitality
Catering solutions
exclusively for
Golf Clubs
“An easy to implement turnkey solution
designed exclusively for golf clubs
by a team of experienced golf
and hospitality professionals”
– 19th Hospitality Ltd
Why did we create
19th Hospitality?
There are nearly 3,000 golf clubs in the UK, over 1.5 million weekly
adult golfers and
Annual Food & Beverage Clubhouse spend of £287 million pounds.
This is a huge market and increasingly important revenue stream
for golf clubs across the country, however it is also an area that can
be challenging to deliver.
Having spent years in the industry we felt that we could create a
concept which reduces the challenges, increases profit and adds
real value to golf clubs.

Our Complete
Food & Beverage Solution

This comprehensive package
Food and Beverage solution customised
to suit your club and members needs.
Business Review
& Audit
We start with a comprehensive review of your clubs Food & Beverage operation and build a
picture of club membership, demographics & visitor split.
Through this analysis we can get a picture of the club and then propose various options with
differing bias depending on the desired outcome for the club.
An audit of the facilities allows us to determine the available equipment and design a menu
which requires little to zero investment.
Custom Food
& Drinks Menu’s
All of our menu’s are fully customisable - including the addition of new and local products to
suit your club. We work together to create Food, Beverage and Special Menu's which exceed
your member expectations whilst remaining profitable for the club.
We can brand the menu's specifically to suit your club, such as naming dishes after signature
holes or adding club information to the layouts.
We update menu’s twice yearly as a minimum and they all come with supporting spec sheets
for the team to ensure consistency and quality every time.
Menu
Examples
We design a menu to suit your club, not only the
content but also the design. We can name menu items
to reflect your course, match club colours or add in course
pictures and logos.
Menu styles are also fully flexible from A5, A4, DL, Placemats to Clipboards
anything is possible.
Food Safety
& Compliance
During the on boarding process we conduct a full compliance audit to EHO standards
to ensure that the premises is legal and compliant moving forward.
Food and Licensing legislation is ever changing - we stay ahead of these changes - adapting
process and paperwork ahead of time so you never have to think about it and remain legal.
These processes also ensure a safe operation so you can be confident in the services that
you are providing to your guests and members.
Allergens’s
& Due Diligence
The recently updated laws around allergen’s and high profile cases highlight the importance
of robust systems to protect individuals and businesses.
Our menu’s and all future updates are supplied with full allergen information and any
changes in products from suppliers are covered too with regular updated Allergen
information for both web and print.
As we use national distributors we have full traceability from source ensuring that should any
problems or issues that arise will be communicated and rectified quickly.

is trained to Food Safety Level 2.
Procedures
& Manuals
All of the training is backed up with a bespoke Standard Operating Procedure manual
created for your club, including opening, closing and cleaning checklists. This is an
important tool for monitoring performance, training new staff and ensuring quality and
consistency with minimal management input.
We have simplified all areas of the operation, such as our simple to use online ordering
platform with our national distributors reducing wasted time and errors/ wastage.
