All orders for next day delivery need to be in by 2pm.  (Business hours, Monday to Friday)

“Do you accept late orders on the day of the catering?”

We usually take this case by case, as it does depend on what is available in the kitchen and who is available to deliver it to you. We will do our best to accommodate, please call the office, you never know your luck.
