Catering Policies & Ordering Info
Order Minimums
All catering orders require a $150 minimum for delivery. Individual item minimums vary by category (see menu sections). For staffed events, the minimum starts at $500.
Delivery
$20 delivery fee within the Des Moines metro area.
$35 delivery fee for locations up to 30 miles outside the metro.
Further distances may require additional fees and coordination.
Payment & Deposits
All orders require a 50% deposit to confirm and hold your event date. The remaining balance is due 48 hours prior to delivery or service.
Deposits are refundable up to 7 days before the event. If canceled within 7 days but more than 48 hours before the event, a partial refund may be issued, minus any costs already incurred. Deposits are non-refundable within 48 hours of the scheduled event.
We accept major credit cards, ACH transfers, corporate checks, and cash. Orders are not considered confirmed until the deposit is received.
Cancellations
Orders canceled within 24 hours of the scheduled delivery or event are non-refundable. This protects our team from food and labor loss.
Orders canceled between 48–24 hours may be eligible for a partial refund, depending on preparation already completed.
Service Charges
Staffed events incur a 20% service charge (minimum $100), covering setup, breakdown, and on-site staffing. This is not a gratuity and does not include rental or delivery fees.
Rentals
Chafing dishes, linens, serving utensils, glassware, and flatware are available upon request. Rental quotes will be customized based on event size and needs.
Lead Times
Please allow at least 72 hours notice for most catering orders.
Larger events or custom menus may require 5–7 days advance notice.
Rush fees apply for orders placed within 24–48 hours.
