Frequently Asked Questions regarding our Buffet Services
Q: What is the minimum number of people I can order for? A: We are flexible! For our individual lunch boxes, we can cater for small groups (perfect for office meetings in Redruth or Truro). For our large sharing platters and hot buffets, we typically ask for a minimum of 10 guests. If you have a smaller gathering, give us a call—we can often tailor a smaller package for you.
Q: Do you deliver to holiday homes and cottages in Cornwall? A: Yes! We are the go-to caterers for holidaymakers. We regularly deliver fresh welcome feasts and party platters to holiday cottages, Airbnbs, and campsites across St Ives, Newquay, Padstow, and Falmouth. It’s the perfect way to start your holiday without the stress of cooking.
Q: How does the food arrive? Do I need to do anything? A: Our cold buffets arrive in high-quality, eco-friendly catering boxes or on elegant platters, fully garnished and ready to take straight to the table. You simply remove the lids, and you are ready to eat. For Hot Buffets, we deliver the food piping hot in thermal containers, ready for immediate service, or we can provide chafing dishes (food warmers) for an extended service.
Q: Can I mix and match items from different menus? A: Absolutely. We know that every event is unique. You can pick and choose items from our "Classic Sandwich" list and add luxury items from our "Savoury Favourites" or "Seafood Platters." Just contact us for a bespoke quote, and we will build a menu that fits your budget perfectly.
Q: Can you cater for Gluten-Free, Vegan, and Dairy-Free guests? A: Yes. We take dietary requirements seriously. We can prepare separate, clearly labelled boxes for guests with allergies to ensure strictly no cross-contamination. Our "Lite Bites" and "Green Feasts" have excellent vegan options that even meat-eaters love!
Q: Do you provide staff to serve the buffet? A: For most "Drop-off" buffets, staff are not required. However, for larger events like weddings or corporate functions, we can provide professional waiting staff to set up the buffet station, serve tea and coffee, replenish the food, and clear away afterwards.
Q: Do you offer specific food for Children's Parties? A: Yes, we offer a fantastic "Kids Party Buffet" filled with child-friendly favourites like mild sausage rolls, finger sandwiches, fruit sticks, and vegetable crudités. It’s a healthier, homemade alternative to standard party food, and parents love it just as much as the kids.
Q: How much notice do you need for a buffet order? A: Because we bake our quiches, sausage rolls, and cakes fresh to order, we ideally need 48 hours' notice. However, we understand that life happens—we can often fulfill last-minute orders for funerals or urgent corporate lunches. Please call us directly on 01209 206255 for urgent requests.
