Chafing dishes/wire racks and butane fuel are not included, but we can supply them at an additional cost. Please let us know if we should add them to your order.

Deposit Required for large events
The following pertains to large events such as weddings, graduation parties, etc. that require delivery and/or staffing of an event.
As a courtesy, Café Jarosz Catering will keep your event penciled into its calendar for up to five days from inquiry. However, if during this five-day time frame another client wishes to book a party for the date we are holding for you, we will contact you immediately to obtain a deposit and your five-day hold grace period becomes null and void.
Your hold will not get “bumped” for another person’s hold. You will only lose your five-day courtesy hold if you wish to forego putting down a deposit.
Deposits are 50% of your anticipated invoice total. If you are unsure of a menu at time of inquiry, a $50 non-refundable deposit can secure your date. The deposit will be applied to your invoice balance. A 50% deposit must be received one week prior to your event. The remaining balance is due on the day of the event - sorry, no exceptions.
Important: Please designate someone at the event who will be responsible for paying us and let us know prior to the event the name of the person we will be receiving it from.
Cash and credit cards are the only final payment forms we accept.
