At RPC, we’re proud to support local food suppliers who play a key role in the communities around us. From freshly prepared lunches to locally roasted coffee and Yorkshire tea, we actively choose to work with nearby businesses that bring quality, care and character to what we do every day.
By sourcing locally wherever possible, we not only enhance the experience for our team and visitors, but also help sustain independent businesses and regional producers. It’s a small but meaningful way we contribute to the local economy while staying true to our Yorkshire roots.
We've been buying our lunches from Slice for more years than we can remember. Just at the bottom of Thorpe Lane, Carrie and her team keep us all well fed with freshly made sandwiches, a big smile and some really great cake.
RPC is fuelled by tea and it has to be from Yorkshire. The Yorkshire Tea basic brew's our favourite, but choose from a variety of teas and decaffeinated coffee from Taylors of Harrogate, if you prefer a different flavour.
Seabrooks have been making crisps in Bradford since 1945, starting as a sideline in their family Fish and Chip shop and moving into their first factory in 1950 with the UK's first crinkle-cut crisps. They're all gluten free and vegetarian friendly.
Our coffee beans are roasted just a few miles away in Shipley by Nino and his team at Casa. A family business that started in a spare bedroom (hence the name) Casa hand roasts ethically sourced, high-quality coffees from around the globe.
Half the Story's Life ChangingBiscuits (original flavour are vegan) are hand made in Nottingham in a social enterprise that gives hope, dignity and purpose to people who have faced homelessness and other major barriers to work.
