We reserve the right to make changes when necessary. Price quotations will be guaranteed 30 days prior to the event. Prices do not include applicable taxes and/or service charges, when they apply. Additional charges may be necessary for any paper products, linen, rental items or service labor over and beyond our usual staffing levels.

Please have your estimated number of guests, event name, start and end time, location, budget number and contact name when ordering. We ask that all catering requests be placed at least seven business days prior to your event. We will do our best to accommodate short notice catering requests but cannot guarantee the availability of services or product. Last minute requests may be subject to additional charges and/or limited menu offering and customer pick up may be required.

guarantees and cancellations
Final guest count guarantees must be received at least five business days for meals and two business days for snacks prior to the event. Billing of all food, taxes and equipment rental (if applicable) will be based on the guarantee or the actual number of guests served, whichever is greater. In the event that a guarantee is not received within the time requested, the billing will be based on the original guest count recorded on the catering event order. We require that all cancellations be made within a reasonable amount of time and no later than 72 hours prior to the scheduled event. A minimum of 50% service charge will be assessed if a cancellation is made within 72 hours of the scheduled event.
