Welcome to Sprout HQ!

the Joyful Sprout

We’re thrilled to introduce Sprout – where nutritious, delicious whole foods are created with heart. Keeping food real – bold in flavour, rich in goodness, and made to truly nourish.

In partnership with Nourish.Connect.Grow CIC, we champion community, inclusion, and meaningful educational and social projects that bring people together.

More than a café, Sprout is a space for everyone – welcoming, inclusive, and built on connection.

Our Mission

At Sprout is to keep food real

Creating nutritious, delicious whole foods that nourish both body and mind. Where ever we can we strive to keep ingredients local, seasonal and use suppliers with ethical sourcing principles.

CATERING & RETREATS

Bespoke menus unique to your occasion

We’ve loved sharing our food at special occasions and retreat settings, offering a range of delicious nourish bowls, cakes, and warm menu options.

Our focus on both nutrition and flavour has been a real highlight and often a talking point for the day across the residential retreats we’ve catered for.

We can also offer bespoke menus, thoughtfully tailored to your event and the changing seasons, ensuring a menu that feels fresh, balanced, and unique to your occasion.

Our Story

a dream many years in the making

Sprout has been a dream many years in the making. Louise imagined a welcoming space where people could connect over delicious, healthy food – food that brings people together and makes eating well something to look forward to.

When Debbie joined her on this journey, the vision became reality. With more than 45 years of friendship between them, Louise and Debbie combined their shared passion for nutritious, flavourful food and their belief in the power of connection, environment, and mental wellbeing.

Debbie is a registered nutritional therapist, and Louise is a mental health expert and psychotherapist with over 25 years of clinical experience in the NHS. Together, they share a love for creating colourful, exciting meals that are as nourishing as they are delicious.

But Sprout is about more than great food – it’s about building community. Through workshops, job opportunities, and inclusive initiatives, Sprout aims to help everyone thrive by creating a space that feels joyful, supportive, and connected.

Working alongside our sister company, Nourish, Connect. Grow CIC, we’re developing a range of workshops and social events designed to inspire and empower.

The vision for Sprout has always been simple:

A place that looks good, feels good, tastes good – and does good

Private Dining

Fancy a meal with a difference?

We offer a catered, exclusive dining experience in a beautiful space, designed entirely around you.

Choose from a thoughtfully crafted taster menu or a shared platter-style menu, all personalised to your requirements. We love creating memorable, special dining experiences that feel unique to each occasion.

We’ve recently hosted an 80th afternoon tea which was absolutely loved by all – a wonderful example of the kind of celebration we can help bring to life.

Granola Gang

The Sprout Granola Gang Is Here!

Our granola is flying off the shelves – and we’re feeling the love! So much so, we’re officially launching the Granola Gang… and yes, there’s now a gluten-free version too!

Made in small batches, our granolas are nutritionally balanced, never too sweet, and free from unnecessary add-ins. We only use coconut oil and unrefined sweeteners, keeping things simple, wholesome, and delicious.

Perfect stirred into porridge, sprinkled over overnight oats, or dolloped onto yoghurt. Or – as many of you already know – it’s just as good eaten dry, straight from the pack. We totally get it.

Ready to Join the Gang?

To order, email us at info@thejoyfulsprout.com
(Delivery available for local orders – minimum 2 packs)

The sprout Table

The Sprout Table is a celebration of seasonal, plant-based dining which is tasty, creative and surprising. Our intimate pop-up experiences are designed to bring people together over beautiful food that nourishes the body and delights the senses.

We’re keeping guest numbers low to preserve the cosy, supper club atmosphere and allow every dish on our taster menu to be savoured slowly and socially.

If you love wholesome food that’s vibrant, inventive, and full of flavour, The Sprout Table is for you.
We’re proud to work with local collaborators and artisan producers, including the exceptional Number Thirteen Bakery, whose breads will feature on the night.

Our first Sprout Table event:
The Sprout Table – Salad & Grain Edition
8th August & 
27th September | 7:00–10:00 PM
Mill House, Hertford
£45 per person

Limited tickets available- bookings only.

  • A divine selection of colourful, super-special salads – featuring both bold new creations and timeless classics
  • An array of perfectly paired grains and seasonal accompaniments
  • Bread from Number Thirteen artisan bakery– fresh, warm, and crafted with love
  • Curated, homemade non-alcoholic cocktails
  • A sweet finish with taster-sized puddings and indulgent treats

This is a non-alcohol event – not because we’re anti-alcohol (we promise!), but because we want the spotlight on our thoughtfully curated food and drinks. (There’s also a lovely pub next door if you fancy continuing your evening after)

We’re incredibly excited for the beginning of The Sprout Table’s journey – and we’d love you to be part of it.

Come join us for an evening of connection, creativity, and exceptional plant-based food.
