Research shows that too many people are ditching their office lunch altogether, risking a productivity tip at best, and total burnout at worst. We don’t simply need calories at lunch, we all need a mental break and recharge, ideally combined with some social time, natural light, and maybe a walk!
So if you’ve fallen into the trap of working at your desk whilst shovelling a soggy sandwich into your mouth, or even worse, your team has, here are some fun ideas to reinvigorate the office team lunch!
Office lunch bingo
Treat yourself to a good office lunch delivery from www.crumbsdelivered.co.uk/shop/office-lunch-delivery/, gather everyone together into a suitable space – possibly not outside the CEO’s office while she’s on a call – and enjoy a game of bingo. Who could resist?
Pot luck lunch
If your team feels up for it, why not encourage everyone to bring in a few favourite snacks or even a dish from home that they might want to share with the team? Call it a potluck lunch and let everyone dive in for the good stuff! It could be anything from burritos to blueberry muffins!
International lunch
Why not pick an international cuisine and order in your lunch to celebrate it? Invite your team to discover tastes of Mexico, Japan, Cambodia, or any other cuisine that your catering provider can rustle up! This is a great option if you’re also having a team meeting as it helps everyone to relax and have fun together.
The great guac-off
Why not split your teams into smaller groups and create a ‘best guacamole’ challenge where everyone gets their raw ingredients and competes to make the best guacamole, which is then served up with big bowls of tortilla chips! Fun, social and delicious!
These ideas can all help to bring people together, create fun and also get everyone away from their desks for an important hour! Why not try some with your team and see if it improves productivity and morale, not to mention the overall atmosphere in the office?
