Better office snacks for the 3pm slump
Simple, better-for-you office snack ideas — from fruit and nuts to real-vegetable chips — plus tips for stocking a snack drawer your whole team will actually enjoy.
By Coco Deli · Updated
The afternoon energy dip is real, and the office vending machine rarely helps. A little planning turns snack time into something you look forward to — without derailing the afternoon.
Easy office snacks to keep on hand
- Fresh fruit — bananas, apples and mandarins travel well.
- A handful of unsalted nuts or seeds.
- Yoghurt or a small cheese portion.
- Real-vegetable chips for shareable, satisfying crunch.
- Dark chocolate squares for a small sweet finish.
Why chips still have a place at work
Sometimes you want something crunchy and savoury, and that's fine. The trick is choosing a chip you genuinely enjoy so a small portion satisfies. Coco Deli Lettuce Chips and Mushroom Chips are made from whole vegetables and come in tidy 80g bags — easy to keep one per person in the drawer.
For teams, the Mixed Box (six bags, both flavours) is an easy way to keep everyone happy at once.
Snacking at your desk, done well
- Portion into a small bowl instead of eating from the bag.
- Pair a savoury snack with water or tea.
- Keep a resealable clip nearby so open bags stay fresh.
- Rotate flavours so snack time stays interesting.
