Frequently Asked Questions
  • How much notice should I give a caterers?

    Every caterer in Cape Town requires a different amount of time to prepare your order. You’ll want to give the caterers as much time as possible to get the job done, especially if your order is complex. However, there have been caterers in Cape Town known to pull through with as little as 24 hours notice. It’s not recommended to take that risk though.
  • Is it better to book the venue or the caterer first?

    If a venue is required in Cape Town, book it first. Unfortunately, not all venues in Cape Town allow outside caterers to serve food. In addition, you want to make sure that the venue and the caterer will be able to work together.
  • Do caterers accommodate for allergies?

    A good catering company in Cape Town will be able to accommodate all allergies and dietary restrictions. However, if you have specific dietary requirements, it will probably restrict the kind of meals that you can make available for everyone. For example, a vegan steak is hard to come by.

    The most common dietary requirements include food that is:

    1. Gluten free
    2. Peanut free
    3. Vegetarian
    4. Vegan
    5. Halaal
    6. Kosher
  • Do catering companies have minimum or maximum orders?

    Most caterers in Cape Town will stipulate the numbers that they are able to cater for. It’s important to have an understanding of what kind of catering company you are dealing with. They will generally display their catering capabilities on their website or social media.
  • Are catering menus set in stone?

    Most catering menus are not set in stone. They can be adjusted according to the needs of the client. However, the more people you are catering for, the less likely it is that you’ll be able to tweak the menu. In addition, there might be extra costs for changing the menu, especially if you give the caterers short notice.
  • Can I taste the food before booking my event?

    It should be possible to taste the food before your event. Ordering your food well in advanced is the best way to ensure that you’ll have this opportunity. Nevertheless, you must be prepared to pay an extra fee for the tasting. It’s highly recommended to taste the food before ordering it.
  • Do caterers provide servers?

    It all depends on the type of event you are hosting and if you require servers. Most established caterers in Cape Town will have staff that can serve food to guests upon request. This may come at an extra fee. However, it’s worth it for larger events and formal events.
  • Can I hire different caterers for the same event?

    If you’re interested in hiring different catering companies in Cape Town, give it a try. Sometimes different catering companies in Cape Town specialise in different types of food. However, you must let each of the catering companies know that there will be other companies serving food at the event. This will prevent confusion and allow for the catering services to run more smoothly.
