Common questions

Does Plaza Catering handle food delivery, or do we need to pick up catering for our Boston event?

You'll need to contact them directly at +1 617-227-1333 to confirm their delivery policy and service area coverage. Some Boston caterers offer free delivery within certain radius limits while others require on-site pickup. Clarifying this early prevents logistical surprises and helps you budget for transportation costs if needed.

What menu options are available, and can Plaza Catering accommodate dietary restrictions?

Visit their website at http://plazacateringboston.com/ for menu details, or call to discuss specific dietary needs (vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, religious restrictions, allergies). Most Boston caterers require advance notice for special diets, so provide this information during your initial consultation to ensure they can accommodate your guests.

Are there minimum guest count requirements, and how far in advance should we book?

Contact Plaza Catering directly to learn their minimum party size, typical booking lead time, and whether they offer rush booking for last-minute events. Boston caterers often recommend 2-4 weeks advance notice, but early summer and holiday seasons may require longer. Having this conversation early prevents booking conflicts.

What's included in the catering cost—staff, equipment, bar service, and cleanup?

Ask specifically about what their pricing covers: food only, staffing/servers, rental equipment (tables, linens, plates), beverages, and post-event cleanup. Many caterers list base food pricing but add service fees, delivery, and equipment separately. Breaking this down prevents budget overruns and clarifies total event cost.

Can we do a food tasting before committing to Plaza Catering for our event?

Request tasting availability during your initial call. Many Boston caterers offer complimentary tastings for larger events or charge a small fee ($50-200) refundable toward your final bill. Tastings help confirm food quality and allow you to customize final menu selections.

How does Plaza Catering handle events outside standard business hours (5:00 AM – 4:00 PM)?

Contact them to discuss evening or weekend events that may fall outside their listed operating hours. Some caterers offer extended availability for events booked in advance, while others maintain strict cutoff times. Clarifying this determines whether they're viable for your specific event timing or if you need an alternative vendor.
