A buffet that works for the room and the agenda.

LunchLink coordinates corporate buffet catering in Toronto and the GTA, with setup, servers, buffet equipment and cleanup available as add-ons to suitable menus. Food, equipment, staff hours and logistics appear in one itemized quote.

Hot dishes need the right pans, fuel duration and holding plan. We’ll confirm buffet space, replenishment, dietary labels and service flow with the selected kitchen and venue. A staffed buffet is planned around the work involved, not a fixed staff-to-guest ratio.

Adjust a budget for your event

Give everyone something to look forward to

A room full of people. A world of food.

Your event, your service level

Build a starting budget.

Choose the food allowance and support you need. Carry the itemized estimate into your quote request—no booking or payment here.

1. How would you like it served?
2. Food and guest count

$28 is an illustrative food allowance, not the price of every menu. Enter 0 if you need food pricing; it will be excluded from the estimate. For 1,000+ guests, request a custom quote.

3. What does the venue need?
Adjust crew hours, equipment and allowances

Default crew hours and equipment illustrate a 50-person event. Changing guest count does not redesign the crew or buffet. Adjust them here; LunchLink confirms the final plan. Setup and catering cleanup are included in agreed staff hours.

A plan before the first guest arrives

From empty room
to a well-fed team.

One agreed event plan covers the menu, crew, equipment and handover. Every arrival and collection window is confirmed for your venue.

  1. 01

    Share the event

    Tell us your date, location, guest count, cuisine and budget. Flag the venue’s furniture, kitchen, power, loading access and any dietary requirements.

  2. 02

    Confirm one itemized quote

    Review food, staff roles and paid hours, equipment quantities, delivery/collection, coordination, tax and optional extras. Agree booking and final-count terms.

  3. 03

    Set up, serve and clear

    For staffed service, the crew sets up the agreed buffet, attends service, replenishes and clears. Catering-area cleanup and equipment collection follow the written plan.

Good questions. Clear answers.

Before you book.

A clear scope makes a smoother event. We’ll confirm the practical details with your venue and selected kitchen.

Can I add setup and servers to any cuisine?

LunchLink can add buffet setup, servers and rentals to suitable corporate catering menus. Choose a cuisine or restaurant, then share your date, venue and guest count. Buffet compatibility, equipment, dietary handling and availability are confirmed with the selected kitchen before booking.

What does corporate buffet service include?

Your quote can include buffet equipment, setup, service staff, replenishment, clearing and catering-area cleanup. Guest tables, chairs, linens, beverages and site-quoted tents can be added. Each role, equipment quantity and paid service window is written into the quote.

How much does a staffed buffet for 50 guests cost?

An illustrative 50-person event with $28-per-guest food, two servers and one lead for six paid hours, buffet equipment, optional basic disposables, transport and coordination is $2,736 before HST at a furnished venue. Adding example guest tables, chairs and linens brings it to $3,242 before HST. Menu, hours and venue requirements change the final quote.

Are setup and cleanup included in the staff hours?

Agreed staff hours cover arrival, setup, service, clearing and catering-area cleanup through departure. The six-hour examples are planning assumptions, not a published minimum shift. Full-building cleaning, extra access time, overtime and separate rental collection need their own agreed scope.

Can we use the office’s own tables and chairs?

Yes. Tell LunchLink what the venue provides so those items can be removed from the quote. Confirm table sizes, buffet space, seating and linens. Basic disposable plates, cutlery and napkins are optional; rented china, glassware and flatware sets are not part of this offer.

Do we need a kitchen, and how early should we enquire?

The selected menu determines whether prep space, power, water, refrigeration or a kitchen is needed. Share venue access and your preferred date early, especially for year-end events. Food-menu deadlines do not establish crew or rental availability; all services are confirmed before booking.
