Yes, to reserve the use of a private event space we require that a food and beverage minimum be met. This meaning that all the food, alcohol, and non-alcoholic beverages consumed must reach up to the agreed upon minimum on one tab before tax and service fees. We do not process separate checks. A deposit of 25% is required and goes toward the food and beverage minimum.
All alcohol is billed on consumption and you’re welcome to limit exactly what is covered on your tab and to what point. Cash bar options are available with cash bar sales not attributed to a contracted food and beverage minimum. Our banquet staff will happily take drink orders and serve your guests, when no bar set up is located within the space.
All payments will be processed by debit or credit card digitally through our secure online event platform. If you require any payment to be made by check or cash, all arrangements must be made in advance, and we do still require a card on file for cancellation purposes.
With the deposit applied, all tax, service fee and any overages occurring day of the event will be charged to the credit card on file the following business day. Any pre-arranged check or cash payments are to be submitted no later than on site at the conclusion of the event.
If you do not meet your minimum spend, you will incur a Minimum Guest Charge for the remaining amount. Please note, we are unable to offer any Gift Cards, Bottles of Wine, etc. for any remaining amount toward your minimum; it must be met in food and beverage spend during your event.
We will need to finalize menu selections one month prior to the event date. Once your menu is submitted and finalized, you cannot make changes (other than increases) as product orders are placed with our Culinary Team.
We ask you provide us with a Final Guest Count one week in advance. Once your final guest count has been submitted, you can increase but not decrease.
If your party is less than 20 guests, you can order off our regular brunch, lunch and dinner menus. If your party is over 20 guests, we have specially crafted entree options to choose from.
