How EatFirst can help with your corporate Christmas party catering
Browse dozens of menus all in one place
Save time you'd otherwise spend searching for caterers near you and requesting a whole bunch of quptes.
Instead of searching for multiple catering companies, our marketplace lets you type in your address and the date of your party and you'll instantly see all the options that are available. If they don't deliver to you, or aren't available at the date and time you requested, you won't see them in the results. All that in just one search!
Our friendly team can help you find the perfect order for your event.
If you're not sure what you want to order, or how much food to get, or are simply overwhelmed with options, we can help! We know now daunting party planning can be and, let's face it, it's not everyone's forte.
Give us a call on 1300 851 900 and we can help you find the perfect caterer for your party.
Find Christmas catering options near you
Whether you're conscious of getting your Christmas lunch delivered quickly or of the environmental impact that travelling further to deliver has, we likely have plenty of good food options near you.
When you're searching for a caterer on our website, after you type in your delivery address, a list of results will pop up. These are all caterers who are able to deliver to you - but they may be coming from far away.
You can see the closest ones to you by using out sort function. Select "Sort by: Distance from me" to see your closest caterers.

How far in advance do we need to order catering for Christmas?
The earlier the better, but if you have left it late - try not to worry.
Some caterers can turn around an order in just 24 hours if they aren't booked out. All of our caterer page, which will also display a menu, will note the turnaround time at the top right.
There's a clock symbol and the number of hours you're required to order in advance listed there. Sometimes specific items do require a longer lead-time, especially anything that's slow-cooked or special for a holiday, but this will be listed on the page as well.
Is catering available on Christmas Day?
Christmas Day will be on a Monday in 2023, but it is a public holiday, so most caterers are going to be closed.
But, we know not every business will be. So if you do have staff working on that day and want to treat them to something special for working on Christmas, don't worry - you could still have some options. Your best bet may be to opt for items like sweet or savoury pastries, cakes and muffins that can be delivered a day or two in advance.
Otherwise, give us a call on 1300 851 900 and we can see if any caterers are available to take your order.
