Catering Contract

Once menu prices are confirmed they are guaranteed and will not change. A 20% non-refundable deposit is required at the time of booking to confirm your event. Please note your event is not confirmed until we receive your deposit payment.

Final count of persons attending must be submitted 7 days prior to the event. After the time, we will do our best to accommodate any increases. However, decreases in numbers will not be accommodated. A 15% gratuity will be added on all orders. Final payment is required one week prior to the event date.

If pick up or delivery of food is requested with no staff present at the event, we assume no responsibility or liability for repercussions of consumption as we have no Food Safe certified staff present to make sure proper procedures are being followed. Food will be delivered in a safe and effective way. Once the transaction has concluded all liability will fall on the client

If you do choose to add additional food items to the meal that has not been prepared by our company, we fully release all liability onto the client for the entire menu as we have no control over preparation methods of added foods.

Plates, cutlery, tables and serving / cleanup staff is not included in our packages and will need to be added separately.
