Frequently asked questions about Food & Drink
Food & Drink
Either way is fine - sometimes the hosts decide what range of products will be available and what is included. However, many parties also have a bar where guests buy their own drinks during the evening.
When you bring your own cake, we charge a fee for serving.
This is fine. Sausages with bread are usually popular in the late hours. Also savoury pies, baguettes and Jansons Frestelse.
Please let us know at least 10 days before the date of the event, and we will organise alternatives for those who require special diets.
We use the Swedish National Food Agency's 14 allergens, which are the most common speciality foods.
Remember to take one too many coffee breaks rather than too few, so that the sessions during the day are not too long. If there is only room for a short lunch, we recommend something simpler than the table-served lunch in our banqueting hall. If the lunch is to be used for mingling or collaboration, it is always good to have a mingle lunch, where we can offer different options.
We can offer everything from cosy breakfasts to lunches, cake buffets, dinners and mingling.
If we are informed in advance of any special dietary requirements, we can of course organise alternatives to these.
When you book with us, we will of course arrange both the venue and the food you want.
Restaurant Grodan serves the same menus to restaurant guests as to our conference guests. However, the restaurant always has its classic dishes on the menu such as raggmunk, calf's liver, steak Rydberg and fish stew.
Food and drink options are vast for all types of events. We are happy to make suggestions.
On our website, under the tab Food & Drink, you will find all the current seasonal menus.
4-5 glasses on a bottle of wine and 7-8 glasses on a bottle of sparkling wine / champagne.
For a pre-dinner drink, you don't need a lot of snacks. Our small canapés are nice and are served as cones. Otherwise, snacks in the form of crisps, nuts, olives and the like are also suitable.
We offer mingle plates, take and stay boxes and savoury sandwiches as an alternative to a seated lunch.
Dietary deviations are becoming more and more common and our large kitchen is well equipped to deal with them.
However, it is important to inform us well in advance of the meeting to ensure a smooth service. Allergies, vegan and vegetarian diets are taken for granted, but not different types of diets. IVA Conference Centre cooperates with Restaurant Grodan, which prepares first-class conference lunches.
