Common questions

What's the typical lead time O Bon Traiteur needs for event bookings?

While not explicitly stated, most Paris catering services require 2-4 weeks' notice for standard events and 4-8 weeks for larger gatherings. Contact them directly at +33 1 40 21 38 26 to discuss your specific event date and confirm availability. Booking during their posted hours (Tuesday-Saturday) may yield faster responses.

Can O Bon Traiteur accommodate dietary restrictions and allergen requirements?

Catering services in Paris are accustomed to managing dietary needs including vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, and allergy-related requests. You'll need to discuss your guest list's specific requirements during the planning consultation to ensure they can accommodate and properly document allergen protocols for your event.

Do they provide full event staffing, or is it drop-off catering only?

This is a critical detail to clarify before booking. Ask whether their service includes waitstaff, bartenders, or kitchen assistants, or if they only provide prepared food for self-service setup. Service level directly impacts your overall event budget and logistics planning.

What menu styles and cuisine types does O Bon Traiteur specialize in?

Visit their website at https://www.obontraiteur-paris.fr/ to review sample menus or call them to discuss their specialty cuisine. Understanding whether they offer traditional French cuisine, international options, or flexible custom menus helps determine if their style matches your event's vision.

How do they handle last-minute guest count changes?

Confirm their policy on adjusting final headcount within 48-72 hours of the event. Some catering services charge penalties for reductions, while others allow flexibility. This detail prevents budget surprises and ensures you're not paying for no-shows.

Are there any venue restrictions or kitchen requirements for their service?

Ask whether they require on-site kitchen access, refrigeration space, or specific setup areas. Understanding these logistical requirements helps you communicate with your venue in advance and avoid last-minute complications.
