Platter and Co

Office catering ideas in Melbourne

For most Melbourne offices, a grazing box suits a team of up to 6, and a grazing table or canapés suit bigger functions. Platter and Co makes everything in its kitchen at 238 Flinders Street in the CBD, and delivers across the CBD and greater Melbourne, or you can pick up for free.

Grazing boxes start from $60 and need 24 hours' notice. Tables need 5 days. Here is what suits each kind of office event, with real prices.

What suits a morning tea?

Keep it light and easy to eat. A fruit box is $60 and a brekky box is $70, each for 1 to 2 people, and a sweet box is $75. Cut fruit and sweet treats are easy to eat standing up, so people can help themselves between meetings. For a bigger team, a 0.5 m fruit table is $300 for up to 20 guests, and a 0.5 m sweet table is $400 for up to 15.

What suits a team lunch or board meeting?

The large savoury grazing box feeds up to 6 for $165, which suits a board meeting or a lunch for a small team. The medium feeds up to 4 for $100, and also suits a client visit. If your team is having a meal as well, a savoury box works well as a starter.

For 12 people, three medium boxes are $300, or two large boxes are $330. For bigger teams, sandwiches (48 triangles, $125) and wraps (24, $170) can be added to a table order.

What about client gifts and thank-yous?

A brunch grazing box is $99 for 2 to 4 people and comes with a personalised message, which makes it a good thank-you or client gift. A small savoury box is $75 for up to 2.

What suits a training day or workshop?

For small groups, order a box for each group. When numbers climb, a table is easier. A brunch table is $650 for 10 to 15 guests and $800 for 25 to 30. Tell us your headcount and any dietary needs, and we'll help you choose a size. One client who ran an event said it was a relief to have no food to set up or worry about.

What works for end-of-year functions, Melbourne Cup and Christmas?

Bigger functions suit a table or canapés. Canapés start from $3.50 a piece, with a minimum of 30. Sausage rolls, party pies, pastizzi and arancini are $3.50 each, chicken skewers are $4.00 and lamb koftas are $6.50. For a sweep, fruit skewers are $4 each and fresh fruit juices are $6.

Melbourne Cup Day is Tuesday 3 November 2026, a public holiday in Victoria, so plan an office Cup lunch for a working day before it, such as Monday 2 November. See our Melbourne Cup catering and Christmas grazing pages.

How does office delivery and ordering work?

Boxes are delivered in one-hour slots between 9am and 3pm, or you can pick up for free. Delivery fees depend on your suburb, and our delivery policy has the details. For tables, our team sets up at your office or venue up to 2 hours before the start, and the set-up is disposable or recyclable.

You place a box order request online, and we call or email to confirm it and arrange payment. For a table, send the enquiry form with your date, headcount and dietary needs. We reply within 24 hours, and a 50% non-refundable deposit books your date, with the balance due 72 hours before. See our corporate catering page for more.

We can cater for gluten free, dairy free, nut free, vegan and vegetarian needs on request, so it helps to ask your team in advance.

    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.
