Why Somers Town kitchens switch
Somers Town tables should never wait on a van
Most kitchens in Somers Town do not change supplier because of price. They change because of a Friday that went wrong.
-
Deliveries that miss service
A late run near King's Cross St Pancras means napkins arrive while the first covers are already seated.
-
Cloths that go out marked
Kitchen soil is not room soil. Grease needs the temperature and the chemistry to match, or it comes back grey.
-
Par levels set for a quiet week
Chef whites are the first thing to run short and the last thing anyone counts.
How it works
Starting in Somers Town takes a week, not a quarter
Nothing here needs a decision from you after the first week.
-
What you use in a week
We look at a week of real service in Somers Town — covers midweek, covers at the weekend, how many cloths a turn actually costs you.
Booked within days in NW1
-
Weekend-weighted stock
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
-
A fixed slot
You get a fixed place on the NW1 round at 7 days, timed around service rather than around the vehicle.
Outside service hours
-
Back before the doors
Pressed, counted, hung and bagged — the delivery is finished when it lands rather than when someone has sorted it.
Counted both ways
Running more than one site in Camden? The same account manager covers all of them, on one invoice and one collection round.
Standards
One plant, 7.0 miles from your pass
There is one building between your linen and ours: a plant in Wembley, 7.0 miles from Somers Town, that we own and run.
That control is what lets us match the programme to the mark, instead of putting everything through the cycle that happened to be free.

Switching in Somers Town without missing a service
Most Somers Town 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 Somers Town: 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.
- The changeover
The old round and the new one overlap
Your current supplier finishes their cycle while the NW1 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
It becomes a delivery you stop noticing
Collections settle into a standing slot, processed at our own plant rather than passed on. St Pancras and Kings Cross 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 Somers Town guest should ever meet your laundry supplier.

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 -
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 -
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.
Liam Gallagher Operations & Pub Manager · Gastro pub with rooms -
LP Laundry has been an absolute game-changer for our 45-room boutique hotel. Turnaround on our bed linens and heavy plush towels is inside 24 hours without a single delay. We could not be happier with the crisp, immaculate finish.
Charlotte Vance Front of House & Accommodation Manager · 45-room boutique hotel

The area
Why Somers Town is collected the way it is
Eclectic and vibrant, known for its historic markets, alternative culture, and scenic canal-side living. Unique to Somers Town.
The constraint in Somers Town is timing rather than distance: the round is planned around service, which is what stops a delivery landing mid-lunch.

Somers Town — what kitchens ask before switching
Do you already collect from Somers Town?
149 restaurants in Somers Town sit inside the area we already collect from, 7.0 miles from our Wembley plant. Alongside them, 153 cafés and 48 pubs and bars are on the same run.
- Shared with St Pancras, Kings Cross and Bloomsbury — one vehicle covers them, which is why we can add a kitchen here without adding a journey, and why the price does not carry a delivery surcharge.
- 7 days collections, on a fixed day and time that does not drift week to week.
- a 7.0-mile round trip is short enough that a missed collection is recovered on the next run, not the next week.
How do you deal with grease, wine and wax in Somers Town?
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 rather than sent back for you to find. Re-treatment first, replacement only if it fails.
- Wax is lifted before wash, because heat drives it into the weave and fixes it there for good.
Do you do chef whites as well as table linen in Somers Town?
Front of house and back of house, one collection. Whites and cloths travel with the tablecloths, on one docket and one bill.
- Whites come back on hangers, ready to hang up — which is the only state a chef jacket is useful in.
- Cloths are bagged by type — glass, oven, waiter — because sorting a mixed bag at 5pm is nobody's job.
- Sizes are held in stock, so hiring someone does not mean borrowing a jacket two sizes out.
Can several Camden venues share a contract?
One account manager, one invoice. Multi-site operators across Camden are the norm rather than the exception, and the round does not change — only the drop list does.
- Each site keeps its own par level. The busy site gets the depth it needs without the quiet one paying for stock it never uses.
- Consolidated billing with a per-site breakdown, so a head office sees one number and each kitchen still sees its own.
- Adding a site later is a change to the drop list, not a new contract or a new supplier relationship.
Can you work around our service times in NW1?
Before the doors, not during them. The NW1 round is planned around service times, which is the difference between a supplier who works here and one who merely delivers here.
- Access around King's Cross St Pancras 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 the team lays up with what arrived that morning rather than what was left in the cupboard.
- If a run is disrupted — a road closure, a breakdown — a 7.0-mile plant means the fix is hours away rather than days.
Our Somers Town covers swing hard. How is stock set?
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 Somers Town — because the figure that matters is what you actually get through, not what you ordered.
- Reviewed after a full month of live usage and adjusted, with no renegotiation and no change fee.
- Seasonal swing is expected — NW1 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 Somers Town?
Whichever suits the item. We hire and we wash-only, and the NW1 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 Somers Town accounts run both: hired table linen where volume is high, owned chef whites where the branding matters.
We are a 24-cover place — are we too small?
No, and no tie-in either. A 24-cover room in Somers Town is a stop on an existing run, not a trip we have to justify.
- Cafés and bars sit alongside restaurants on the same round — the vehicle does not care what is on the sign outside.
- 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 specific to your kitchen?
Ask us directlyThe cheapest wash for Somers Town is the second one you avoid
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 Somers Town 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 NW1 round serves Somers Town, St Pancras and Kings Cross — 3 areas, one set of miles.
- A 7.0-mile plant distance is the transport cost of every collection here — it is why routing matters more than detergent.
- Closed-loop rinse water — the cheapest litre is the one used twice.
- A re-treated tablecloth costs a fraction of a replacement one, environmentally and otherwise.
