Catering questions

What is the minimum catering order?

The minimum catering order is $150. Individual corporate packages also have guest minimums: 20 people for Meeting Fuel, Team Lunch and Executive Spread, and 25 for After-Work Social.

How much notice do you need for catering?

Give us 48 hours’ notice. Same-day orders under $300 may be possible by phone — call (416) 792-8490 to check.

Where do you deliver, and what does delivery cost?

Pickup is at 971 Kingston Rd. We deliver across Toronto and the GTA, including the Upper Beaches, the Beaches, Leslieville, East York, Birch Cliff, Cliffside and Scarborough. Delivery is charged by distance, so send the postal code and we will quote the fee before you confirm.

Do you require a deposit?

A 50% deposit applies to orders over $500. Payment is by e-transfer.

Can you handle dietary requirements?

Gluten-free, vegetarian and vegan options are available on request. Tell us the requirements when you order, not on the day, so we can plan them properly.

How far ahead should I order for December or holiday dates?

As early as you can. Four to six weeks ahead is safest for larger December and holiday orders; smaller orders still need at least 48 hours’ notice, and popular dates fill first.
