Common questions

Does Encore Catering handle full-service catering or just food delivery?

Contact them directly at +1 416-661-4460 to confirm their service scope. Most catering companies in Toronto offer varying levels of service—from food-only delivery to full setup with staff, rentals, and cleanup. Understanding exactly what's included helps you budget accurately.

What's the typical timeline for booking catering services?

Most professional catering companies require 2-4 weeks advance notice for standard events, though larger events may need 6-8 weeks. Since Encore Catering operates Monday-Friday only, plan to contact them well ahead of your event date to secure your preferred dates and finalize menus.

How does pricing work if I don't see a set menu on their website?

Pricing is customized based on guest count, menu selection, service level, and venue. Call +1 416-661-4460 with specific details about your event to receive an accurate quote. Have your guest count, date, dietary needs, and venue location ready when you inquire.

Can they accommodate dietary restrictions and allergies?

Most professional catering services handle common dietary needs (vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free), but you need to confirm this directly. When you contact them, provide a complete list of allergies and dietary restrictions so they can confirm menu options and food safety protocols.

Do they provide rentals like linens, plates, and serving equipment?

This varies by catering company. Some include rentals; others are food-only providers. Ask Encore Catering specifically about what's included in their service packages and whether they partner with rental companies if rentals aren't part of their offering.

What areas of Toronto do they service?

Their listing indicates they serve customers across Toronto from their Dufferin Street location. However, delivery fees may vary by distance. Confirm that your venue location is within their service area and ask about any delivery charges before finalizing your booking.
