What size grazing table do you need for 50 people?

For 50 guests, a 1.5 m fruit table feeds up to 50 for $800, and a 2 m sweet table or a brunch table feeds up to 55 for $1,100. Savoury tables are priced on a separate page.

Each table lists the most guests it feeds, so choose from the number you expect. This guide covers 30, 50, 75 and 100 guests using our real prices.

  • Brunch, up to 100 guests: $1,900.

Should I size up?

The guest number is a maximum, so a smaller crowd can use a bigger table. As general guidance, caterers plan about 150 to 200 grams of food per person for nibbles, and about double if the table is the main meal.

Size up if the table is the meal, the event runs for hours, or guests will arrive hungry. Size down if other food is being served. Tell us the timing and what else is on the menu, and we'll help you choose.

Count adults and children separately, because the enquiry form asks for both.

What add-ons help stretch a table?

Extras take some of the load, so you may be able to stay with a smaller table. Full details are on the grazing table add-ons page.

  • Sandwiches (48 triangles): $125. Wraps (24): $170.
  • Sausage rolls, party pies, pastizzi and arancini balls: $3.50 each.
  • Free-range chicken skewers: $4.00 each. Lamb koftas: $6.50 each.
  • Fresh fruit skewers: $4 each. Fresh fruit juices: $6.
  • One-person grazing cones: $25 each.

How does booking work?

Tables need at least 5 days' notice. Our team arrives up to 2 hours before your start time, and the set-up is disposable or recyclable. We can cater for gluten free, dairy free, nut free, vegan and vegetarian needs on request.

  • We reply within 24 hours to say whether your date is free.

    Jess and her team went well above and beyond to cater for my function, which was held on a public holiday! She was easy to communicate with, accurate in her estimation of types and quantities of food… Everyone commented on how good the food was.
