Business lunch catering in Leiden with a fresh kumpir bar: Potaé brings a live station of XXL baked potatoes to your office, and everyone loads their own. Vegan, vegetarian, chicken or tuna, all from the same bar. No more boxes of identical sandwiches, just a warm lunch your whole team actually looks forward to. We cater across the Netherlands, Leiden included.
The standard office lunch is a tray of the same sandwiches for everyone. That falls apart the moment your team includes vegans, meat eaters and people who simply want something warm after a morning of meetings. Potaé flips that around. We are the first and only dedicated kumpir chain in the Netherlands, and kumpir is exactly the dish that solves it.
What is a kumpir bar?
A kumpir is a Turkish-style XXL baked potato: oven-baked, whipped creamy on the inside with butter and cheese, then loaded with fresh salads and toppings. The kumpir bar brings that to your location as a live station. Your colleagues walk along the bar and pick their own base and toppings. One person goes vegan, the next picks chicken, someone else keeps it simple. Everyone eats the same dish, fully their own way.
Why a kumpir bar works at the office in Leiden
Leiden is a city of knowledge institutions and companies that are diverse and international. At the Leiden Bio Science Park, at Leiden University and the LUMC, teams sit together with every kind of dietary need. A kumpir bar fits that perfectly: one concept that serves everyone, without separate orders for those who skip meat or gluten.
The city also sits handily between The Hague and Amsterdam, close to the A4 and A44. Whether your office is in the station district, the historic centre or on a business park, we come to you. See our general office lunch catering and the full range of catering options.
Something for every diet, no fuss
The strength of the kumpir bar is that inclusivity is the default, not the exception. At the same bar you will find:
- Vegan options, with plant-based toppings and salads;
- Vegetarian choices, generous by design because kumpir is naturally veg-forward;
- Chicken for anyone who wants something hearty;
- Tuna as a fresh, protein-rich pick.
Nobody has to order a special package in advance or eat separately. That saves you admin and makes sure the colleague with a dietary need just joins in. Curious about the line-up? Browse the menu.
