FAQS

Christmas catering should be booked as early as possible — it’s by far the busiest time of the year for catering and the best dates fill quickly.

Corporate Christmas parties, private celebrations, end-of-year functions and Christmas Day events often start booking months in advance, especially for Fridays, weekends and December dates.

If you already know your event date, it’s a good idea to secure your booking early to lock in your preferred menu, staffing and service options. For larger events, weddings or fully staffed Christmas functions, booking well ahead is strongly recommended.

  • Jarrod and I wanted to say thank you so much for Saturday. The food was absolutely delicious, so many people from the party have commented to us over the last 2 days and asked who the caterer was because they were so impressed too. The canapés were unique, gourmet and so well presented.

    Also your service is outstanding. So well organised and professional, and we barely heard a sound from the kitchen and saw no mess whatsoever! Connie was excellent, so focused on the guests and serving whatever their needs were, following up with people, ensuring everyone was being fed and had drinks.

    Art Kitchen certainly elevated our party and enabled us to relax as hosts and focus on our guests. We will definitely recommend you to our friends and family in the future.

  • I don’t even know how to put into words how wonderful you made our 100th birthday party on Saturday night. The food was BEYOND incredible (every canapé, main and side), your wait staff were just fantastic (and so professional) and went above and beyond to not only make the event run smoothy but keep up both the classy AND fun vibe, and everything looked, smelled and tasted amazing. Our guests left buzzing with compliments about how great everything was.. We also appreciated how good value you are which meant we could afford a full sit down dinner for 50 of our friends, which really was a hope we weren’t sure if we were going to be able to do. Thank you so much for bringing your incredible talent to this event.
