What goes wrong in Cornhill
Cornhill tables should never wait on a van
EC3V has its own constraints — access, timing, and the roads around Mansion House. A supplier who does not know the area finds that out during your service, not theirs.
-
Late drops before a full book
Traffic around Mansion House turns a morning drop into an afternoon one, and the team lays up with whatever is left in the cupboard.
-
Grease that never lifts
Kitchen soil is not room soil. Grease needs the temperature and the chemistry to match, or it comes back grey.
-
The skip that fills by Thursday
A stock level built around a Tuesday does not survive a full Saturday in Cornhill.
From first call to first collection in Cornhill
Four steps from first call to first Cornhill collection
Most of the work happens before the first collection, and most of it is ours.
-
Covers, not guesswork
We look at a week of real service in Cornhill — covers midweek, covers at the weekend, how many cloths a turn actually costs you.
Before anything changes
-
Stock set to your week
We size to the peak and let the quiet days look over-supplied — the opposite arrangement fails when the room is full.
Adjusted, not renegotiated
-
Your place on the round
You get a fixed place on the EC3V round at 7 days, timed around service rather than around the vehicle.
Agreed, then kept
-
Pressed, sorted, counted
Pressed, counted, hung and bagged — the delivery is finished when it lands rather than when someone has sorted it.

Behind the round
Cornhill cloths are washed where we say they are
Your cloths go to one place — a plant in Wembley, 9.2 miles from Cornhill, owned and staffed by us rather than rented capacity somewhere else.
It also means kitchen soil is treated as kitchen soil — grease, wine and wax on the right programme, not whatever the machine was already running.

Switching in Cornhill without missing a service
Most Cornhill operators stay with a supplier they have stopped rating, because changing one feels like risking a service. It is the objection we hear most, so here is exactly how it runs.
- Before you commit
We count a real week, not an average one
An hour in Cornhill: what goes out on a Saturday, what is still in the wash, what is past saving. You keep every item you own — nothing is bought back or written off to make a contract look neater.
- Week two
The old round and the new one overlap
Your current supplier finishes their cycle while the EC3V round starts delivering. For that week you are holding more than you need, which is the point — there is no service you lay up short for.
- Settled
Your day, your window, your account manager
Collections settle into a standing slot, processed at our own plant rather than passed on. Langbourn and Broad Street are already collected on the same run, so this is an existing journey rather than a new one.
Nothing here needs you to be out of contract first — the count and the plan cost you nothing either way.
No Cornhill guest should ever meet your laundry supplier.

Back-to-back conferences and galas mean huge quantities of table skirts, stage linens and catering napkins at short notice. They have never missed a deadline on any of it.
Danielle Moreau Events Logistics Manager · Corporate event venue -
From velvet seat throws to staff aprons and heavy bar towels, our eclectic mix of textiles is handled without fuss. The turnaround times and the account management are what stand out.
Kieran Davies Venue & Hospitality Manager · Boutique cinema & lounge -
As a family-run Victorian B&B we need a partner who understands traditional hospitality. Our heritage cotton sheets are treated with real care, the drivers are friendly and the weekly delivery is consistent.
Arthur Pendelton Proprietor & Manager · Traditional bed & breakfast -
Grooming generates heavy, fur-filled towels and specialist bedding that a standard machine cannot handle. Everything is collected and returned allergen-free, fluffy and sterilised. Top marks for taking on the difficult jobs.
Natasha Petrov Head Groomer & Manager · Pet grooming & daycare -
Table presentation is everything in Mayfair. They handle our heavy cotton damask tablecloths and chef whites with real precision — stains vanish and the starch finish is always spot on. The daily collection has never let us down.
Mateo Rossi Restaurant General Manager · Fine dining restaurant -
Whether we are catering a wedding or a corporate launch, linen presentation has to be immaculate. We get crisp, vacuum-sealed table linens and pristine chef jackets every time — a genuine operational ally.
Julian Bennett Executive Director of Operations · Catering & event production -
Our membership expects discretion and immaculate standards. Dining room linens and guest suites are laundered to a bespoke standard, and the discretion around our account has been absolute.
Alistair Finch Club Secretary & General Manager · Private members' club -
Running a busy dining room alongside eight letting rooms needs a versatile laundry partner. Kitchen aprons, table runners and bed sheets all go in one collection, and the seven-day pickup schedule flexes around us.

About Cornhill
Why Cornhill is collected the way it is
A dynamic micro-neighbourhood in Cornhill with a growing reputation for independent local life. Unique to Cornhill.
The constraint in Cornhill is timing rather than distance: the round is planned around service, which is what stops a delivery landing mid-lunch.

Cornhill questions, answered
Is Cornhill on one of your rounds?
195 restaurants in Cornhill sit inside the area we already collect from, 9.2 miles from our Wembley plant. Alongside them, 116 cafés and 61 pubs and bars are on the same run.
- Shared with Langbourn, Broad Street and Lime Street — they sit on the same run, so an extra stop costs us minutes rather than miles — and that is what keeps a small account viable here.
- 7 days collections, on a fixed day and time that does not drift week to week.
- a 9.2-mile round trip keeps the recovery window short — the plant is close enough to come back.
How do you deal with grease, wine and wax in Cornhill?
It depends entirely on the mark. Oil, wine and wax behave differently in a wash, and treating them the same is how cloths come back looking tired after a season.
- Items are sorted before washing, not after. A tablecloth and an oven cloth never share a load — that is how cloths come back grey.
- Marked items are pulled at the check stage and re-treated before they go back out. Most recover; the ones that do not are replaced from stock rather than returned to you to notice.
- Wax is lifted before wash, cold and mechanically — a hot cycle is what makes candle wax permanent.
Can Cornhill chef jackets go with the tablecloths?
Same round, same invoice. Chef jackets, aprons, trousers, oven cloths and kitchen cloths are collected with the table linen — there is no second supplier and no second delivery day to remember.
- Whites come back on hangers, sized and named where you want them named, so they go straight to the changing area rather than onto a pile.
- Cloths are bagged by type — glass, oven, waiter — because sorting a mixed bag at 5pm is nobody's job.
- Sizes are held in stock, and a change of size is a phone call rather than a reorder.
We run more than one site around City of London — one account?
Yes, and it usually costs less. Sites on the same City of London rounds share the journey, which is the whole reason a group rate exists.
- Each site keeps its own par level. A 30-cover bistro and a 200-cover brasserie should not carry the same stock, and averaging them is how one site runs short every weekend.
- Consolidated billing that shows the total and the split, so nobody has to reconcile it by hand.
- Adding a site later is a change to the drop list, not a new contract or a new supplier relationship.
When do you collect in Cornhill — will it clash with service?
Never during service. Your EC3V slot is fixed when the account opens, so it is a standing appointment rather than a window someone assigns you on the day.
- Access around Mansion House is planned into the route rather than discovered on the day. Loading restrictions and one-way systems are the reason most suppliers drift late here.
- Deliveries land before the doors open, so setup starts with a full cupboard instead of a count of what survived last night.
- If a run is disrupted — a road closure, a breakdown — we come back the same day. At 9.2 miles that is a decision, not a logistics exercise.
Can par levels handle a full Saturday in Cornhill?
The weekend sets the level. Stock that only just covers midweek runs out exactly when the room is full and nobody has time to notice.
- We count a real week in Cornhill — covers midweek, covers at the weekend, and how many cloths a turn actually costs you rather than what the last supplier's sheet said.
- Reviewed after a full month and changed if the first number was wrong. It often is, in both directions.
- Seasonal swing is expected — EC3V trade moves across the year, and the par level should move with it rather than being agreed once and forgotten.
We own our linen — will you launder it in Cornhill?
Whichever suits the item. We hire and we wash-only, and the EC3V round does not care which is in the bag.
- Owned stock stays yours. Nothing is bought back or written off to make a contract look tidier, and you keep every item you already paid for.
- Hire covers replacement — wear, loss and staining are ours to carry rather than a line that appears on your invoice each quarter.
- Most Cornhill accounts run both: hired table linen where volume is high, owned chef whites where the branding matters.
Is there a minimum order?
No, and no tie-in either. A 24-cover room in Cornhill is a stop on an existing run, not a trip we have to justify.
- Cafés and bars sit alongside restaurants on the same run, and a 24-cover room is priced on what it actually uses.
- No tie-in and no volume threshold attached to the quote. The price you agree is the price at any volume.
- Growing later is a par-level change, not a renegotiation — adding a second flat does not reopen the contract.
- No exit fee. If it is not working, you say so and we collect our stock.
Something we have missed?
Ask us directlyRewashing Cornhill linen is the real environmental cost
Most of the environmental cost of restaurant linen is rewashing and early replacement, not the wash itself — a cloth retired at the first oil mark has cost more than one washed twice. In Cornhill there is a second saving: the kitchens here sit close enough together that one round covers them, instead of separate journeys out from Wembley.
- One EC3V round serves Cornhill, Langbourn and Broad Street — 3 areas, one set of miles.
- A 9.2-mile plant distance is the transport cost of every collection here — it is why routing matters more than detergent.
- Water from the final rinse is recovered and feeds the next wash rather than the drain.
- A re-treated tablecloth costs a fraction of a replacement one, environmentally and otherwise.
