FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What is "Special Event" catering?
We consider an event to be "special event" catering when a client requests staffing, china, silver, and/or linen.
What can I expect the cost for my event to consist of?
While the cost of an event will vary based on the complexity of the food, service, and equipment needs, the following breakdown will serve as a general guideline of what to expect:
Food and beverage will make up approximately 50% of the total cost.
staffing is a significant portion of the total cost, usually about 25%. rebecca's cafe supplies a full complement of professional, uniformed staff. Staff is required each time we serve liquor or provide equipment. There is a five-hour minimum charge per staff person.
miscellaneous costs make up the remaining 25%. These costs may include china, silver, or linen. rebecca's cafe can also provide full bar service, music and other entertainment, and floral arrangements if requested. How much notice is needed to plan an event? Again, the complexity of the event will dictate the lead time needed. In most cases, we will need at least two days notice but will always do our best to accommodate last minute situations.
