Common questions

What's the best way to get started with P & P Caterers if I'm in the early planning stages?

Contact them at +1 215-676-6447 or schedule a consultation during their business hours (Monday-Friday 9 AM-5 PM, Sunday 12-3:30 PM). They handle quote requests and can discuss your event vision without commitment, allowing you to compare pricing against other Philadelphia caterers. Bring your guest count, event date, and any specific cuisine preferences to make the conversation more productive.

How much lead time should I provide for catering bookings?

While not explicitly stated, most Philadelphia caterers require 2-4 weeks for standard events and 6-8 weeks for large affairs (200+ guests). Contact P & P Caterers directly to confirm their specific booking windows, as this affects your overall event timeline and menu finalization.

Do they accommodate dietary restrictions and food allergies?

This is critical to confirm before booking. Call and discuss your guest list's dietary needs—vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, kosher, halal, or shellfish allergies. Ask whether they charge extra for specialized meal prep and how they prevent cross-contamination during service.

Are setup, service staff, and breakdown included in catering costs?

Most caterers structure pricing differently depending on service level. Clarify whether the quote includes servers, bartenders, rentals (tables, linens, plates), setup, and cleanup, or if these are separate line items. This significantly impacts your total event budget.

What payment terms and cancellation policy should I expect?

Standard practice involves a deposit (typically 25-50%) to secure your date, with final payment due before or at the event. Ask about their cancellation timeline—most require 2-3 weeks notice for refunds. Get cancellation terms in writing before signing.

Can they handle outdoor venue catering, and what weather contingencies exist?

If you're planning an outdoor event, confirm their experience with tent catering, portable equipment, and weather backup plans. Ask whether they provide heated or cooled serving stations and how they manage food safety in variable conditions.
