// What buyers need

Plan the party flow before choosing the buffet

The right package still needs an operational plan. These are the details that most often decide whether service feels smooth.

What the organizer needs

  • A menu that feels different from a routine office lunch
  • Enough choice for mixed diets without separate menus
  • A realistic plan for drinks, dessert and disposable serviceware
  • A delivery window that fits speeches, awards or activities

Service and delivery plan

  • Reserve a table for food and a separate surface for drinks when space allows.
  • Choose one or two serving lines for larger floors and confirm access with building security.
  • Steak in the fajita packages is not halal; request confirmed protein quantities for mixed-diet groups.

// Planning notes

What planners should know

  • Interactive formats usually outperform standard platters for office celebrations.
  • Mixed taco + bowl bars reduce decision friction for larger teams.
  • Add-ons like churros and chips & guac make the spread feel more complete.

// Direct answer

Office party catering performs best when it feels festive, serves mixed diets easily, and scales cleanly from 20 people to full-company gatherings.

// Request the quote

Give the catering team what they need

Before you request the quote

Confirm the event plan with your venue, then send the operational details in one request. Availability and final logistics are confirmed in writing.

Include these details

  • Event date and serving time
  • Office address and floor or room details
  • Guest count
  • Whether the team will eat together or in waves
  • Protein and dietary quantities
  • Parking, loading dock or elevator notes
  • Whether disposables, drinks or desserts are needed

// Event planning context

How to choose the right office party format

The best format depends on how guests will actually eat. If the room can support one coordinated serving window, a taco or bowl buffet usually gives the best mix of value and guest choice. If names, labels or staggered attendance matter more, individually packaged meals can be the better operational fit even when the event itself sounds buffet-friendly.

This is why the most useful quote requests include the date, address, guest count, dietary quantities and a short note about the room setup. Those details make it easier to confirm the right format before delivery, add-ons and HST are finalized in writing.

// FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What catering format works best for an office party?

Taco bars and mixed taco-and-bowl bars are usually the strongest fit because they feel more festive than standard platters while still staying simple for a team buffet line.

How much does office party catering cost?

La Rio's Taco Bar starts at $13 per person and the Mixed Taco-and-Bowl Bar starts at $15 per person. Delivery, add-ons and 13% HST are separate and confirmed in the written quote.

Can one office party order cover halal and vegan guests?

Yes. Halal chicken and beef and vegan tofu or bean-and-corn can be included in the same order. Share the quantities and any allergy requirements before finalizing the menu.

What details matter most for a downtown office party delivery?

The most important details are the serving time, floor or suite number, parking or loading instructions, elevator access, security procedures and an on-site contact for the driver.
