Overview
Catering clients compare per-head prices without seeing what sits around them. This quote shows the event dates, three menu options per guest with the recommended one marked, then a short cost summary that adds staffing, hire, tax and the deposit, with a validity warning.
The sample follows Glenmoor Distribution quoting a partner dinner for 120 guests on May 14, 2027: the seasonal menu at $62 a guest, staffing at $3,640, hire at $1,920, 8% tax and a total of $14,040 with a 30% deposit. Replace the event, menus, rates, tax and dates with your own.
Useful for
- A caterer sending a corporate dinner quote with three menu options and one recommendation
- An events coordinator comparing per-head prices with staffing and hire shown separately
- A small catering business collecting a 30% deposit and a written acceptance before the date
What's included
- An event calendar for the month of the event with quote, kitchen and event-day markers
- Three menu cards priced per guest, with the recommended menu highlighted
- A cost summary with total, tax and the deposit due

Questions
Is this catering quote template free?
Yes. It is a free Google Docs template. Make a copy to your own Google Drive and edit the menus, prices, tax and dates for each event.
How should I show staffing and equipment hire?
List them as separate lines with hours, rate or quantity so the client can check them. The sample shows staffing at 8 servers for 7 hours at $65 an hour.
Are Glenmoor Distribution and the figures real?
No. Glenmoor Distribution, the event, the people, the prices and every figure are fictional sample content. Replace them with your own before sending.
