Canapé catering Sydney
Looking for chef-led
canapés in Sydney?
This is our full canapé selection — cold, warm, substantial and sweet — written for weddings, corporate functions and private celebrations. Canapés are curated one-on-one with our chef after you enquire, cooked on site and passed to your guests through the event.
Menus are fully customisable to suit dietary requirements, guest numbers and the nature of your occasion.
This isn't a set menu
Your canapés, chosen with the chef.
Nothing on this page is locked in. You read the cold, warm, substantial and sweet selections, tell us what your guests will actually enjoy, and the chef shapes the running order around the room, the season and the kitchen you're working with. Menus are fully customisable to suit dietary requirements, guest numbers and the nature of your occasion.
We cook. We plate. You host.
Restaurant service, in your venue.
Our chefs cook on site and plate to order, so canapés go out hot and in waves rather than held under foil. We handle the timing with your venue, work dietaries into the menu instead of around it, and keep the floor moving — you stay with your guests.
Built one-on-one
How the menu comes together.
Send through your date, guest count and venue and we'll come back to you. From there it's a conversation: how many canapés per guest, which dishes you want passed, dietaries, staffing and whether you'd like substantial dishes or a sweet round alongside. Nothing is finalised until you've read it and agreed to it.

Common questions
Canapé catering
questions, answered.
Canapé catering is roving, hand-held food passed to guests through your event — cold canapés, warm canapés, substantial dishes and sweets, cooked on site and served in waves by our staff.
It depends on the length of the event and whether it replaces a meal. Tell us the run sheet at enquiry and we'll recommend a number of selections and whether substantial dishes are worth adding.
Yes. You can add one more canapé choice across your whole event, or an additional substantial dish on cocktail packages. Both are quoted per guest.
Yes. Most menus run a few cold and warm canapés, one or two substantial dishes and a sweet round. If you want a seafood-led menu, a plant-based run or something in between, say so and the chef will build it that way.
Every canapé is tagged gluten free, dairy free, nut free, vegetarian or plant based where it applies. Tell us the dietaries at enquiry and the chef writes alternates into the same rounds, so those guests are served alongside everyone else.
Waitstaff and barstaff are quoted per event, based on guest numbers, service style and venue. The chef fee is quoted separately for every event.
Sydney-wide — private homes, venues, offices and event spaces. Tell us the location at enquiry and we'll confirm access and kitchen requirements.
