The Food Made Good awards exist to celebrate everything exciting about British restaurateurs, chefs and suppliers doing the extraordinary to make food good – delicious, ethical, sustainable.

Yeo Valley HQ Canteen, long-time friends of The Simple Things, have been nominated for the People’s Favourite Award 2016.

And it’s easy to see why.

This is a thoroughly ethical restaurant sourcing seasonal and local food and ensuring they have zero waste to landfill. The building is kept warm using biofuel and the layout (big canteen tables) encourages people to talk and connect with others.

As well as being a fantastic work canteen they open it to the general public and run special events to encourage sustainability. It is also decorated in a really creative and quirky way which makes it feel like it’s not taking itself too seriously, putting everyone at ease with the humour. And the food tastes fabulous!
