Mother’s Day is one of the biggest occasions of the year for pubs, restaurants, and hospitality venues – when families come together to celebrate the special women in their lives.
At Jolly Foods, we’re here to help you make this year’s Mother’s Day lunch truly exceptional. Based in Carterton on the edge of The Cotswolds, we proudly supply top-quality meats, cheeses, fresh fish, and deli produce to establishments across Oxfordshire and The Cotswolds. With our premium range, you can create a menu that delights guests and keeps them returning.
Here’s how you can bring guests through the door with irresistible specials, thoughtful details, and an unforgettable Mother’s Day lunch offering.
Showcasing the Stars of Your Menu – Premium Meats from Jolly Foods
When it comes to Mother’s Day lunch, quality meat is often the centrepiece. At Jolly Foods, we take pride in supplying the finest locally sourced cuts that chefs can rely on for tenderness, flavour, and consistency.
Here’s how our range can make your menu shine
🥩 Succulent Beef
Nothing says Sunday lunch quite like a perfectly cooked roast beef joint. Our premium beef cuts are ideal for slow roasting, delivering rich flavour and melt-in-the-mouth texture. Serve with crispy roast potatoes, fluffy Yorkshire puddings, and a generous pour of homemade gravy for a classic that’s hard to beat.
🐑 Flavourful Lamb
Treat your guests to the comforting flavours of tender Cotswold lamb. Whether you opt for a slow-roasted shoulder or a rack of lamb with a fresh herb crust, our high-quality cuts ensure a juicy, flavour-packed main that mums will love. Pair with seasonal greens and a mint sauce for a traditional touch.
🐖 Delicious Pork
Our Norfolk Outdoor-reared Pork is perfect for those looking for a crispy, crackling-topped roast. Serve with apple sauce, roasted root vegetables, and creamy mash for a hearty option that appeals to all ages.
By choosing Jolly Foods, you’re not just serving meat – you’re serving quality your guests can taste in every bite.

Complete the Experience – Starters, Desserts & Drinks
While the main course is the hero, the supporting acts are just as important:
🥂 Starters to Set the Tone
- Smoked Salmon Rosettes: Delicate fresh smoked salmon slices with lemon and dill crème fraîche.
- Cheese & Charcuterie Board: A sharing platter featuring artisan cheeses, cured meats, and fresh bread.
🍰 Indulgent Desserts to Finish on a High
Swap out the traditional crumble for something more elegant this Mother’s Day with a selection of rich, decadent gateaux. Offer slices of chocolate, lemon, or coffee gateaux, beautifully presented and perfect with a cup of fresh coffee or tea. For those who prefer a savoury end, a local cheese board with crackers and chutney remains a popular choice.
