If you have a specific budget to meet and aren't sure what you can get for that, please get in touch with our team on 1300 851 900 and they can walk you through everything.


Can catering be delivered anywhere in Melbourne?

Yes! If you’re having your Christmas party outside of the office, as long as you’re in the Melbourne area, you’ll be able to get the order delivered to your venue of choice.

How much should you budget for catering in Melbourne?

Catering prices can vary depending on where you're ordering it from and what meal you're serving for your team or guests. As an estimate, here's a rough guide on what you can expect prices to work out to per person.

Morning or afternoon tea will likely cost between $10-$15 per person. It will be on the higher end if you're wanting to serve any hot items and on the lower end for the more basic fruit and pastry-style service.

Lunch catering will probably cost a bit more in comparison as it's a full meal, so we'd recommend setting a slightly higher budget of $15-$20 per person. If that's a bit tight, you can get more basic catering, like sandwich platters, salads or pizza in the $10-$15 range. However,  if you'd like any specialty cuisines like Thai, Sushi or Indian, expect it to be a bit pricier.

Grazing platters and finger foods can cost you as low as $10-$15, but that's depending on the quality of meats and cheeses you'd like to serve - they can get pricy!

Are there any delivery charges?

Delivery charges may vary based on your location and the caterer. Many of our catering partners offer free delivery or there may be a fee based on distance.
