Service, Delivery & Set-up and Pick-up choice

 Pick-up-(for any amount of guests) This method is when you order and pick up from our brick-and-mortar location (1919 12th avenue in the city of South Milwaukee, enter in West doors).  We will include disposable plates, napkins, and silverware when requested.  We have a $1.00 per person disposable ware charge that covers disposable hot containers, serving utensils and aluminum pans.  There will be no “disposable ware charge” if you are picking up cold box lunches!  If you don’t have your own chafing dishes to keep your food warm, we can rent them to you for $10.00 each (they will come with the Sterno).  We also have insulated “hot” boxes for you to transport your food if you wish.  These must be returned to us the next business day.
 
Disposable Drop Off Delivery-(for any amount of guests) This delivery method is for you if you just want us to drop off and go!  Everything will be packed in disposable containers and we will provide all of your plates, napkins and disposable flatware.  You can purchase disposable wire chafers and fuel for $10.00 each if needed.  If you need to have individual disposable meals for each guest, there will be a $1.00 per person “disposable” fee for all of the extra disposable items involved in doing individual meals.  Delivery fees for this option are for 7am-1pm deliveries, Monday-Friday (*additional charges will occur outside of this timeframe).  Up to 10 miles $25.00, 11-15 miles $35.00, 16-25 miles $50.00, 26-35 miles $75.00.  We will need a 30 minute window of opportunity for your delivery drop off.
 
Delivery and Set Up-( recommended for under 60 guests) This is our most common delivery method in which we will show up on time, completely set up your catered meal with nice, presentable equipment (tables and linens can be provided at an extra charge)  plus all disposable plates, napkins and flatware and have your meal ready by your specified time.  You will be on your own for serving.  We will come back (free of charge) within the next 2 business days to retrieve our equipment.  A “same day” pick up by 2pm may be pre-arranged for another charge equal to the delivery charge.  Delivery charges for this option are for 6am-1pm deliveries, Monday-Friday (*additional charges will occur outside of this time frame and on Saturdays and Sundays).  0-5 miles $25.00, 6 to 10 miles $35.00, 11-15 miles $45.00, 16-25 miles $65.00, 26-35 miles $80.00.  We will need a 30 minute window of opportunity for your delivery set-up*.
 
Full Service Set Up and Attend-(recommended for 60 or more guests) We will deliver and set up your catered meal and our attendants (2 minimum) will monitor, freshen, replenish, clean up both the buffet and disposable ware plus pack up leftovers for you to keep in your refrigerator for later use.  Disposable plates, napkins and flatware will be included.  Our staff will be dressed in khaki or black pants with Skyline polo shirts (formal wear by request).  This service will also include any equipment for the buffet and table linens if needed.  There will be a $50.00 attendant charge for each attendant and a 20% service charge added to the final invoice.  There will be a $30.00 per hour attendant charge for each attendant (we invoice for drive time and action time).  Some events will need a chef on hand to prepare items onsite for freshness, especially on longer events.  Our chefs are invoiced at $45.00 per hour (we invoice for drive time and action time) A 20% service charge will be added to the final invoice.
 
*Our half hour delivery window means we need a flexible time frame of 30 minutes to get your lunch delivered and set up for the time you want to eat.  For example, if you want to eat by noon, then you would want to give us an 11:30-noon “delivery window”.  This means we will be set up sometime between 11:30-noon.  We may arrive earlier than 11:30 to begin the set up process, but we will be set and ready for you to eat between 11:30 and noon!
