| CATERING | For Catered events, a Nelson’s Catering attendant will arrive and setup your buffet using chafing dishes. The attendant will meet with the on-site contact to make sure everything is as ordered. Nelson’s Catering will service the buffet, serve the main entrée to your guests and clean up the food area after the event. We will again check with the on-site contact before leaving to make sure we exceeded your standards.

Catered events incur more time spent than calculated in our menu pricing. A minimum 10% service charge will be added for these events.

| DELIVERY | For Delivery orders, the menu is delivered in insulated disposable containers with a Nelson’s Catering representative setting up the buffet and meeting with the on-site contact to make sure everything is as ordered. Prior to eating, the Nelson’s Catering representative will depart. All items left behind are disposable.

Delivery fees are based on total invoiced amount and miles driven to your event.

| PORTIONS | Food and beverage portions are based on over twenty years of experience. In order to provide you with the best possible price, we do not provide an overage for food; however, please notify your sales representative if you expect larger than normal consumption.

| DEFINITION OF 1.5 ENTREES | 1.5 entrées is the amount of main course your event will be provided should you feel additional servings will suit your event. To figure the number of entrees, Nelson’s Catering will figure the total number of guests x 1.5. This is the number of entrees you will receive.

| DIETARY NEEDS | We understand the importance of catering for specialized dietary needs. Our menu has options of vegetarian and gluten free. We can tailor our menu to most dietary requirements. Please contact your sales representative for more information. Please note that we do not operate a nut-free kitchen.

| STAFFING | We are proud of our professional staff. We have an exceptional sales staff available Monday- Friday from 8:00am until 5:00pm. Weekend appointments may be available by appointment. Our catering staff accomplish long hours of customer service training, are well groomed and are appropriately uniformed for your event. The size and service level of your event will determine the number of staff at your event.
