As the holiday season gears up, you can expect more parties and gatherings at homes and various businesses. If you are in charge of such a gathering, then you may be interested in a local catering company. As you decide on the right company for you, here are some questions you should ask.

1. What Type of Food Do You Serve?

According to IBIS World, there are 85,851 caterers in the U.S. as of 2023. With so many caterers available, that means you have many food options. You may have a caterer that specializes in specific cuisine, such as Greek food.

2. Can You Handle Diet Restrictions?

When you're planning a gathering, you may have to consider dietary restrictions. You may have guests who are vegetarian, vegan, or need gluten-free options. Some people may also need low-salt recipes in case they're dealing with hypertension. Ask your local catering company if they're able to adjust certain recipes to handle dietary restrictions, so everyone can have a good time.

3. What Service Options Do You Provide?

Catering services can vary based on the company. Many caterers will create trays and deliver them to your location and set them up, so you can have a buffet. Think about the type of service that's best for the type of event you're hosting.

4. May I Have Some References?

Solid references are a must when choosing a catering company. You can begin by asking the local catering company for referrals. As long as they have a good reputation in their industry and know that they provide quality services, they should easily be able to supply a few referrals for you to directly contact.

There is nothing like a fun party, gathering, or wedding to look forward to. These events require good food and drinks, so make sure you don't disappoint if you're hosting one.
