Common questions

How far in advance do I need to book La Pera Catering & Events for my Austin event?

While their extended hours suggest flexibility, catering typically requires advance notice for menu planning, ingredient sourcing, and staff scheduling. Contact them directly at +1 512-591-8554 to discuss your event date and learn their standard booking windows for different event sizes and complexity levels.

What's included in their catering service beyond food?

Catering services generally vary in what's included—some provide setup, staffing, linens, and equipment while others focus on food preparation only. Confirm whether La Pera includes service staff, table setup, serving utensils, plates/glasses, and cleanup, or if these are add-on costs affecting your total budget.

Do they offer menu tastings before committing to catering services?

Many Austin catering companies offer tastings for larger events, though policies vary. Reach out to La Pera to ask if they provide pre-event tastings, whether there's a cost involved, and what lead time is needed to arrange one for your specific menu selections.

Can La Pera Catering accommodate dietary restrictions and allergies?

Dietary accommodations are crucial for inclusive events. Ask specifically about their experience with common restrictions (gluten-free, vegan, kosher, halal), whether they maintain separate prep areas to prevent cross-contamination, and how they track dietary needs during service.

What's their policy on beverage service and outside alcohol?

Beverage offerings differ significantly—some caterers provide beverages, others allow BYOB, and some have restrictions. Clarify whether La Pera includes non-alcoholic beverages, whether you can bring your own alcohol or wine, and if they provide bartending services or glassware.

How do they handle events with multiple venues or outdoor locations in Austin?

Venue logistics affect catering complexity and costs. Ask whether La Pera has experience with your specific venue type (outdoor, multiple spaces, difficult access), what additional setup fees apply, and whether they handle temperature-controlled transport for outdoor summer events.
