Best For: Corporate lunch events and business gatherings, Weekend celebrations and special occasions, Private dinner parties and intimate gatherings, Mixed-schedule events requiring flexible catering windows

What planners usually like:

  • Extended weekend availability (24-hour service Saturday-Sunday) eliminates scheduling constraints for Saturday evening events, Sunday brunches, or multi-day celebrations
  • Local Lyon-based operation means shorter delivery times, fresher ingredients, and easier coordination for last-minute adjustments or tastings
  • Professional catering approach handles setup, service, and cleanup, allowing planners to focus on guest experience rather than logistics
  • Direct contact via phone enables real-time communication about menu modifications, dietary restrictions, and event-specific requirements

Things to clarify before booking:

  • Confirm minimum guest count requirements and whether they accommodate smaller intimate gatherings or focus on larger events
  • Discuss menu customization options, seasonal availability, and whether they offer preset packages or fully bespoke menus
  • Clarify what's included in their catering service: staff service, equipment rental, bar service, or if these are add-on fees
  • Understand their lead time requirements for bookings, especially for weekend dates when 24-hour availability may create higher demand

Common questions

What's included in the catering package, and are there hidden costs I should anticipate?

Contact them directly at +33 6 34 66 77 60 to request a detailed quote breakdown. Since pricing requires contact, clarify upfront whether their estimate includes service staff, tableware, linens, beverages, and any setup/breakdown fees. This prevents budget surprises and helps you compare accurately against other Lyon caterers.

How far in advance do I need to book, and can they accommodate last-minute events?

Their extended 24-hour weekend availability suggests flexibility, but Monday-Friday's limited 12-2 PM window may indicate focused lunch service. Reach out early to discuss your timeline—weekend events might have shorter booking windows due to demand, while weekday events may require advance notice.

Can they accommodate dietary restrictions and allergies?

This is essential to confirm directly. Ask specifically about their ability to handle vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, kosher, halal, and common allergen protocols. Request their food safety documentation and how they prevent cross-contamination during preparation and service.

Do they handle full-service catering, or is it drop-off only?

Clarify whether staff service is included, optional, or unavailable. Some caterers provide full setup and service, while others deliver platters for self-service. This affects your event logistics, staffing needs, and total budget.

What's their service area within Lyon, and do they charge delivery fees?

Confirm their delivery radius from their Cours Charlemagne location. Ask whether delivery fees are flat-rate, distance-based, or included in catering minimums. This matters for events outside central Lyon where travel time increases.

Can I see their menu options or sample their food before committing?

Request their current menu and ask about tasting appointments. Check their Instagram (@amazing_lunch_lyon) for recent catering photos, but note that social media may not show their full range. A tasting ensures the food quality and style matches your event vision.
