Our platters are presented on reusable, biodegradable or recyclable platters (for items designed to be served cold or at room temperature) or oven-safe aluminum platters (for reheat items). If you prefer to serve on your own platters, we can pack the items in boxes for easier transport so you can transfer to your own platters once home. For the safety of your guests, food must be consumed or refrigerated within 3 hours of delivery or 4 hours of pick up. If you have any questions concerning safe food handling, please ask any member of our catering team.

How to Order

How early do I need to place my order?

All orders for savory items should be placed 48 hours in advance. Because we make everything from scratch, please note that we stop taking orders at 3 pm for orders two business days later. Similarly, all of our baked goods are made lovingly from scratch by our Creamery & Bakeshop, so we ask that orders from the Creamery be placed 72 hours in advance of your event.

How much should I order?

Our menu provides an approximate number of servings in each dish. For hors d’oeuvres, count on about 3 pieces/items per guest per hour. In addition, you should consider whether your event coincides with a mealtime, or if alcohol will be served; in either of these situations guests are likely to eat more. We’re happy to help you with quantities once we understand a bit more about your event details.

How can I place my order?

You can call us (415–241-9760 x 1) or email us with your order. We require a credit card number to guarantee the order. If you are picking up, pre-payment by credit card expedites the process and will get you on your way much faster. If we are delivering your order we will charge your credit card the day before the order is delivered.

What if I need to cancel?

You may increase, decrease or cancel your order up to 48 hours prior to the pick-up or delivery time. Orders canceled with less than 48 hours’ notice will be subject to a fee of 50% of the order total.

When and where can I pick up my order?

Any of the menu items included in this brochure can be ordered by phone or email for pick-up, with 48 hours’ notice. Orders can be picked up anytime during Bi-Rite Market’s business hours – 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. daily. Please ask for your order at the deli counter or with a manager on duty.

What are my delivery options?

The same guidelines apply for delivery as for pick-up (see above). We can deliver to your home, office or event venue with 48 hours’ notice. Delivery is generally available between 8 a.m. and 6 p.m. within the city of San Francisco. The delivery fee will be quoted at the time of order.

Do you provide plates? Forks? Coffee? Crystal champagne flutes?

Yes to forks and plates — no to the champagne flutes, unless we’re providing full-service catering. We exclusively use biodegradable plates, utensils, cups and napkins for our pick-up or drop-off catering service. We charge a nominal fee per setting. We can also provide disposable serving utensils upon request. We are happy to offer assistance coordinating beverage and coffee service. Charges are calculated based on the location and the services provided, and will be quoted at the time of order.
