Whether you prefer classic simplicity or boho maximalism, these are the serving platters we’re adding to basket this month from John Lewis, Anthropologie and more.


Whether you’re planning a dinner party to make the most of the longer evenings (thank you, British Summer Time) or getting ready for barbecue season, a serving platter should be at the top of your shopping list.

Coming in all shapes and sizes, there’s something to suit every kind of dining, including bold prints, botanical patterns and classic wooden boards. All of them instantly elevate your dining set-up (and if you’ve put the time and effort into cooking up an impressive spread, why wouldn’t you want to show off your handiwork in the most aesthetically pleasing way possible?).

Here’s our edit of the best serving platters for springtime entertaining.
