1 How much does canapes catering cost?

Smith’s canapés menus vary widely in requirements and therefore cost. Delivery, equipment hire for hot canapés or corporate event canapés (incl. service equipment, cocktail/drinks tables, glassware, linens, marquees, etc.), staff, and other extras are quoted by event.

50% deposit (for non account clients) 7 working days before the event and balance payable within 30 days is required.

Check our dedicated menu pages for specific menus:

2 What is the minimum order for canapés catering?

The minimum order for cold canapés menus is 50 people and you can choose any six canapes for each menu. For hot canapés menus, we ask for a minimum of 100 – Chef and oven are required. Alternative menus, such as vegan and vegetarian canapes are included.

Final order numbers by 12noon, 2 working days prior to the event and cannot be lowered after this time is required.

When booking, please bear in mind that Christmas is our busiest times for Cocktail and cold canapés and dates often get sold out in an early October, so early booking is advisable to avoid disappointment.

3 How many canapés will I need per person?

For Fish and Meat canapes, we usually recommend 8 canapes per person. Including GF and DF. For veggie and vegan canapés, we suggest a minimum of 6 canapes per person.

4 Where do you source your meat?

We only work with suppliers who share our high standards for produce. These include:

Master sausage maker Jean Paul at Franconian, who’ll custom-make any sausage you want
Award-winning butchers Godfrey’s for 100% Aberdeen Angus burgers
Billingsgate fish market
HFA-certified suppliers for halal meats as required

5 What alternatives do you offer for special dietary preferences / requirements?

We provide a wide range of vegan and vegetarian canapés. We can also have gluten- or dairy-free canapes, and meet religious requirements. Please see our classic canpes menus for more detail.

None of our menus are “set” and we are happy to create bespoke menus to suit a themed event. Last season, our chefs created a Christmas Cocktail canapés inspired by Classic English Christmas menus.

6 Can Smith’s provide canapés delivery only?

Yes. We can deliver all type of canapés, including hot canapés. Canapés will arrive ready to be served or if you prefer platters are also available for an extra fee.
