Office lunch catering for 50 people

Turn 50 guests into a meal count

List the number of each selected meal and check that the total is 50. Mark any substitutions and dietary meals separately, then nominate a person to distribute or identify them. For a shared package, provide the same dietary breakdown so special meals do not depend on taking sides from the buffet.

Protect the lunch break

Reserve space before the food arrives. Boxes need a distribution surface; a buffet needs serving access, and a Gyro Bar needs room for multiple components. Give reception and elevator instructions to the catering team and separate the delivery window from the time the meeting pauses for lunch.

Compare three ways to feed the same 50 people

Individual boxes suit distribution to desks or several rooms. A shared Corporate Lunch Package needs one accessible serving area. A Gyro Bar offers assembly and choice, so leave room for guests to move through several components. These are planning options, not measured service-speed claims.

Make a dietary-count worksheet

Create a list with the selected meal, quantity, exact requirement and confirmation status. Check that quantities total 50. For example, 40 standard meals, six vegetarian meals and four separately confirmed adaptations still total 50; this is an illustrative headcount split, not a guarantee that every adaptation is available.

• One organizer approves the meal list
• Each requirement is attached to an actual meal
• Ingredients and handling questions are resolved before booking
• A receiver identifies any separately packed meals
• No guest must assemble an unconfirmed meal from miscellaneous sides

Send a usable delivery brief

Include the building, floor, room, receiving entrance, access restrictions and mobile contact. Separate the food arrival window from the meeting's lunch break. If the venue requires equipment or a person to remain during service, ask for it explicitly and confirm whether it can be provided.
