Frequently asked questions

How is the catering estimate calculated?

We multiply the current per-person price of your chosen format by guest count, add the selected delivery planning figure, then apply 13% HST.

Is the estimate the final price?

It's a close estimate. Add-ons (chips & guac, churros, drinks) and custom requests adjust the final, itemized quote we send you.

What's the minimum for catering?

We cater all formats for 10 or more guests.
