Catering FAQs
Common questions answered — but feel free to call us if you don't see what you're looking for.
How many people does each platter serve?
It depends on the item and size selected. As a general guide, our smaller platters and salads ($49.99–$79.99) typically serve 8–15 guests as a side or 6–10 as a main, while our larger packages like the Lunch for the Office ($279.99) and Sandwich Tray Buffet ($429.99) are built for full office groups of 20 or more. Size options are shown on each product page, and our team is always happy to help you estimate portions — just call us at (781) 326-5047.
Do you offer gluten-free or vegetarian catering options?
Yes — we have several options that work well for dietary restrictions. Our Fresh Fruit Platters, Fresh Veggie Platters, Antipasto Salad, Cobb Salad, Fresh Party Salads, and Assorted Roasted Veggies are all naturally vegetarian-friendly. For guests with specific allergens or dietary requirements, we recommend calling us directly so we can walk through your options and accommodate your event properly.
Can I customize my catering order?
Absolutely. Many of our platters have built-in options and size variants you can select online. For more specific customizations — special requests, combining items, or building a fully custom spread — give us a call at (781) 326-5047 or (617) 436-2997 and we'll work with you to create exactly what your event needs.
Do you deliver catering orders?
Our catering orders are available for in-store pickup at both our Westwood and Dorchester locations. If delivery is important for your event, please call us ahead of time to discuss your specific situation — (781) 326-5047 for Westwood, (617) 436-2997 for Dorchester — and we'll do our best to help you find a solution.
How far in advance do I need to place my order?
We ask for a minimum of 24–48 hours advance notice on all catering orders so our team can prepare everything fresh on the day of your event. For large events, office lunches, or peak times like holidays and graduation season, we strongly recommend ordering 3–5 days ahead to guarantee availability.
