Catering Policies
Cafe Marie Cafe and Catering menus are created in house with love by our team of culinary artists. We feature simple dishes that focus on fresh vegetables and farm goods from Unama’ki, Cape Breton and across Mi’kma’ki. Volunteer board meeting, Friday night supper, an international gathering? We have options for you.
We require your catering order to be placed 7 business days in advance.
Please include any allergens or special requests as soon as possible.
Catering numbers must be guaranteed at least three business days before your event. We require 2 business days notice for any cancellation of a catering order. Less than two business days and you may be required to pay in full. If your order is over $500, we require at least one week’s notice to cancel an event.
All events at Eltuek Arts Centre must be catered exclusively by our in-house culinary team. Certain exceptions may be approved by staff.
All prices may be subject to an 15 %Service charge, plus applicable HST. Indigenous people and organizations are exempt from HST.
We do not offer off-site or delivered catering services at this time. Pick-up orders can be arranged by coordinating with staff.
Our food is prepared onsite in the Meals on Wheels Kitchen, a multipurpose commercial kitchen that processes a variety of allergens such as nuts and gluten. We take every precaution to prevent cross contamination, but we cannot assume responsibility for adverse reactions to foods an individual consumes or may encounter for any event we cater.
