Our Upstairs Room | Go To Catering Menu

We can cater your event!

From gourmet boxed lunches and breakfasts, to formal, served, sit-down dinners in our upstairs room, to buffets, afternoon tea parties, showers, meetings or parties with wine service, heavy hors d'oeuvres, desserts only, and so much more.

You can pick up your order to-go, either prettily plattered and completely ready for you to serve, or all boxed up and ready to be put onto your own serve ware.

We may be able to deliver and set-up your order for a fee, depending on when and where you want it taken to.

We generally do not offer full-service, off-site catering, but we can assess your needs and decide on a case by case basis.

At any rate, nearly everything is open to discussion and negotiation; please remember that it never hurts to ask.

We have a few policies you should know:

• For glass quiche and pie plates in purchases of whole quiche and pies, we require a deposit of $10 each. This deposit is refundable for 1 week after your event, unless otherwise negotiated. If you do not want to have to return the pie plate, 9-inch disposable tins are available, and are lower in cost since they are smaller.

• We ask for a deposit, which is fully refundable until a pre-disclosed date, and you will have this information in writing.

• We will give you a date to finalize the number of people we are cooking for. While you will not be able to reduce your guest list after that date, increases are possible and will be charged on a per-person basis.

• If you use our serve ware offsite, we may keep your credit card on file. Before you check the serve ware out you will be advised in writing when it is due. Failure to return our serve ware by that date may result in a fee being charged to you. Late returns can be reimbursed for most of the fee, less either $5 or 10%, whichever figure is greater, to cover administrative costs.

• All deposits and other refunds will be given to you by our business check; we are unable to refund your credit card.

• Delivery fees, extra costs for wait-staff, set up and anything else will be disclosed to you, in writing, when you place your order. There will never be surprise costs or fees, you will always know ahead of time.

• Additional costs for linen rentals, dish rentals, and other things of that nature, will be passed directly on to you. You may request copies of the receipts; we will not charge you extra for it.

• We guarantee your satisfaction 100%.

~Our Upstairs Room ~

Yes, our upstairs room is available for your meeting, party, or gathering.

We use our upstairs room for regular seating, special parties, meetings, teas, and our wine dinners. Many people ask us if we rent it out and the answer is usually no, we don't charge rent for it. The use of the room is generally free, when you purchase food and beverages from us. However (c'mon, it's free, of course there is a 'however'!) we have a few expectations that we hope you will honor when you do utilize our room:

• We expect you to purchase food and beverages from us, and we ask you to please not bring outside food or beverages with you. We do not expect you to fully cater your meetings unless you book the whole room. Otherwise, ordering from the regular menu or off of the bakery counter is just fine.

• We only have one bathroom and it is accessed through that room. Access to the bathroom must always be allowed, even if you have reserved the entire room. (You may reserve just a table, the entire room, or anything in between.)

• Booking the whole room requires a minimum of 20 people; is not generally available during our peak lunch time from 11 am -1:30 pm; and must be fully catered by us, or is subject to usage fees.

• Reservations are necessary so that we do not have more groups than we can handle at any one time. Your reservation also lets us know how much extra food to make in order to accommodate everyone.

• Our parking lot is very small, and we share it with the shop next door, so please encourage your group to utilize street parking, rather than completely filling the lot.

• The maximum occupancy is 42 people. For a sit-down meal event you would not want to go over 30, for comfort's sake.
