Kids meals (cost)

Foo, 10 February, 2014 at 13:21 Posted on Planning 0 9

Just wondering what people are paying for children's meals in relation to the adult portions?

Our meal is around £40ph and I was initially thinking I would just include children in the total headcount, but having added it all up I am wondering if I can maybe do half portions for the kids? I know my own children won't eat much, especially at a party with lots going on. I want everyone to eat the same thing and our meal is pretty child friendly (slow roast lamb, roast new pots, veg & salad), but I am trying to save a bit of money to spend on more wine. ?

    My venue offer reduced prices for children. It is £70ph for adults however for 12 - 18 year olds they do it for £35ph. They also do a half portion of an adult meal for £17.50 and a childs meal like chicken nuggets etc for £15. It has saved us quite a bit of money so definitely worth looking into and asking about.

    At our venue the meal cost is 45Euros, and they offer a separate children's menu for 12Euros or a child's portion of the adult menu for 19Euros, I'd definitely check with the venue / caterers Smiley smile

    I would contact the venue and ask if they can do a half portion. With ours we had either a choice of kids meals which was along the lines of sausage & mash or a half price adult meal.

    We've gone for the half price adult meal as its nice for them to feel like the are the same as the grown ups?

    I think our venue charged £10/head for children under 10. Adult price was £30/head if it helps!

    Great, thanks all. I think I'll ask if they can do half portions for the kids.

    My venue had a children's menu, which cost much much less than the normal meal, and was stuff like burger, spaghetti, or chicken nuggets. Or there was the option of a half portion of the main meal for half price. Ask your venue what they do as standard, I'm sure they're all different.
