Food

Shelby, 22 of January of 2022 at 10:12 Posted on Planning 0 7
Hi! Please can you all help me, I am stuck on how many evening guests I need to cater for! We are having sausage/bacon butties with chips as our evening food. We have 99 day guests that will be eating between 4-5:30pm and then the evening food will be around 8:30pm with an additional 40-50 guests. I do not want to cater for every guest as I know not everyone will eat but I don’t want to not have enough, how many would you recommend catering for?

    We have similar numbers, but the other way round, so 50 in the day and a further 70 in the eve, so 120 in total. We are catering for 90 split between hot bita and cheese board. If you go for 75-80% of your numbersyou will be fine.


    For timings we are same as you for our main meal but pushing evening food to 9pm slas our evening starts at 7 so gives the day guests time for meal to settle and spend a bit of time with our eve guests before more food!

    Our venue recommended catering for 60-70% of day guests and 100% of evening guests.

    We’re not having evening guests but are also having bacon butties as our evening food! It was pretty much the first decision we made after choosing our venue 😂
