We must have notice of alcohol needs 21 days prior to events in order to obtain a liquor permit in a timely fashion.  The New York State Liquor Authority (NYSLA) will not guarantee permit requests that come within 14 days of an event. If a push is requested by the client within 14 days and the permit is denied a fee of $48 will be charged to the client.

All service is FREE DELIVERY unless otherwise noted.  If the event is off-site, delivery charges will apply.

 

CHINA AND LINEN RENTALS:

China service is included in any food beverage order up to 300 people. Any event needing China over this amount will be subject to market price rental fees. Linen is included with every delivered food and beverage order for food tables and seating tables.  If linen is needed for events hosted without food and beverage the client will be subject to a linen charge at $5.00 per tablecloth.

Do not email or fax last minute cancellations. Clients must speak directly to one of our catering coordinators, any message to a staff member or on our voice mail is not a valid cancellation.
