Things to clarify before booking:

- Verify available service dates/times, setup and breakdown timeline, and any venue restrictions they've encountered in Beijing locations
- Discuss kitchen facilities needed on-site, whether they provide serving staff/rentals, and their contingency plan for large events or weather changes
- Request specific menu samples, ingredient sourcing practices, and allergy/dietary accommodation procedures to ensure compatibility with your guest list
Common questions
How far in advance should I book catering for my Beijing event?
Most catering services in Beijing typically require 2-4 weeks minimum notice for standard events, though larger affairs (100+ guests) benefit from 6-8 weeks advance booking. Qiankelou Catering's specific timeline should be confirmed directly, as availability in Daxing District may vary seasonally. Earlier booking secures better menu options and allows proper ingredient procurement.
What's typically included in catering pricing, and what costs extra?
Standard per-person pricing usually covers food and basic service staff, but Beijing caterers often charge separately for rentals (tables, chairs, linens), delivery/setup fees, beverages, and gratuity. Clarify with Qiankelou whether their quote includes service staff, equipment, or if those are à la carte additions. Always request an itemized quote to avoid surprise costs.
Can catering services accommodate dietary restrictions and cultural preferences?
Reputable Beijing caterers routinely handle vegetarian, halal, kosher, and allergy-specific menus. Qiankelou Catering should be asked about their experience with dietary accommodations, advance notice requirements for special requests, and any premium pricing for customized meal preparations. Provide your guest dietary list early to allow proper menu planning.
What's the difference between full-service catering versus drop-off service?
Full-service includes setup, serving staff, and cleanup; drop-off is food delivery only with minimal service. For events in Beijing's Daxing District, confirm whether Qiankelou offers both options and at what guest count each becomes cost-effective. Full-service typically costs 30-50% more but reduces your operational burden significantly.
How do caterers handle serving logistics for events at non-traditional venues?
Beijing caterers experience varies with outdoor spaces, residential buildings, office cafeterias, and hotel ballrooms. Ask Qiankelou specifically about venue types they've served, whether they handle on-site kitchen setup, equipment they bring versus require on-site, and any venue size limitations they work within.
What happens if guest count changes close to the event date?
Standard catering contracts allow 5-10% adjustments within 1 week of the event; beyond that, penalties may apply. Confirm Qiankelou's policy on final headcount confirmation deadlines, whether price adjustments are pro-rated, and their procedure for adding or reducing guests within their service window.
