Catering Tableware Sydney

Catering tableware is the single-use plates, cutlery, cups and napkins that go with a delivered meal. Most office kitchens have a few mugs and a drawer of mismatched forks, which is fine for a team of six and a problem for a lunch of forty. Ordering tableware with the food means the table is ready the moment the platters land.

What you need depends on the food. Sandwich platters, grazing boards and finger food only need napkins and perhaps a small plate. Pasta trays, salads, hot mains and side trays need a plate and a set of cutlery for every guest. Tiramisù and panna cotta need a spoon, which people always forget.

There are five items, all sold individually so you order exactly what you need: Single Use Plates (per plate), Single Use Cutlery (per set), Single Use Regular Cups and Single Use Large Cups (per cup), and Napkins in packs of 50. Add them to the cart with your food and they are packed with the order.

There is nothing to wash up and nothing to return. Once lunch is over, everything goes in the bin and the meeting room is ready for the next booking. For a standing account, the same tableware can go on every regular order, so the office manager never has to think about it again.

It saves a job. Tableware arrives in the same van as the food, delivered by our own driver to your floor, so there is no second delivery, no trip to the shops and no surprise when the boardroom cupboard turns out to be empty. It also sits on the same invoice as your catering.

Ordering it with the food also means the quantities match the meal: plates and cutlery for a pasta lunch, napkins for a grazing board, cups for the juice. We deliver across the CBD every weekday, to towers like Aurora Place, Quay Quarter, 1 Bligh Street and International Towers in Barangaroo, and we know their docks.

For a sit-down lunch, order one plate and one cutlery set per person, plus a couple of spares. For hot food and pasta, allow a second plate for anyone likely to go back for more. For morning tea and finger food, a small plate is optional but napkins are not: one pack of 50 covers a group of 20 comfortably. Order one cup per person if you are adding juice or soft drinks.

Our food is labelled for dietary needs, with vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free and dairy-free options as standard and Halal-certified options across most menus. Tell us about allergies when you order and we cross-check every item before it leaves our kitchen.

Tableware travels with your catering across the Sydney CBD, Martin Place, Wynyard, Barangaroo, Circular Quay, Pyrmont, Ultimo, Surry Hills, Darlinghurst, Potts Point, Woolloomooloo, North Sydney, Crows Nest, Chatswood, Macquarie Park and the inner Eastern Suburbs. For other addresses, contact us to confirm.

Add it when you order your food: order by 2:30pm for next-day delivery and choose your time at checkout. If you realise on the morning that you have no plates, call us before 9am and we will see whether we can add them to the run. We deliver Monday to Friday.

Add plates, cutlery, cups and napkins to the cart with your food, choose the date and time and check out. The minimum for delivery is $100 across the whole order, and pick-up from the cafe has no minimum. For a large event, contact us and we will work out the quantities with you.

Tableware goes with everything on the menu, from office lunch catering and pasta trays to morning and afternoon tea. Standing accounts can add it to every regular order, billed to the account. Not sure how much to order? The per-person guide above is a good place to start.
