Description

The smaller fixed-price pack: one decision feeds eight to ten. The Small Pack is this Berkeley studio's corporate catering and event catering staple for compact gatherings: twelve tea sandwiches, a ten ounce bag of house rosemary potato chips, and one large side, at a single published price.

Included With This Package

  • Twelve tea sandwiches from the studio's lineup
  • A ten ounce bag of house rosemary potato chips
  • One large side to round the spread
  • One flat published price for eight to ten guests

Why the Small Pack Works

  • Working lunches and small celebrations get catering quality without logistics
  • The build is published in advance, so approval takes a glance
  • The same artisan sourcing that styles the studio's grazing tables

The studio behind it holds a perfect 5.0 star rating on one major review platform and 4.9 on the other, earned on grazing work where composition is the craft. The packs carry that standard into a grab-and-serve format.

Questions Hosts Ask

  • How many does it feed? The published build covers eight to ten guests
  • Can selections vary? The sandwich lineup is set in the ordering conversation
  • Need more? The larger pack feeds twelve to fifteen at its own flat price

How Booking Works

Share your date and delivery window. The studio confirms the lineup, builds the pack fresh that morning, and it arrives composed and ready to open. No count reconciliation, no per person tail.

Where We Work

Based in Berkeley, California, serving the East Bay, San Francisco, and the wider Bay Area.

Good to Know

  • Boards and grazing tables cover larger formats from the same kitchen
  • Standing weekly orders can rotate the sandwich lineup
  • Lead time protects the morning build

Who Books This

Team leads feeding a meeting that deserves better than delivery apps, hosts of small showers and birthday lunches, and anyone whose week needs one good decision instead of ten. The Small Pack exists for the gathering that is intimate on headcount and unwilling to compromise on the table.

The Studio Standard

Tea sandwiches get the grazing-table treatment here: fillings composed rather than spread, finishes that survive the trip, and chips bagged in house. The side rotates with the market the way the studio's boards do, which is why repeat orders never feel repeated.

Budgeting It

One published flat price covers the entire build, making this the simplest catering line item a small gathering can carry: order, receive, serve, done. For groups that outgrow it midweek, stepping up to the larger pack is the same single decision at the next size.

Pairing It

The Small Pack pairs naturally with a cheese or fruit board when the group edges past ten, and with coffee service for morning meetings. Hosts running a longer afternoon often add a second pack timed an hour later rather than upsizing, which keeps everything tasting freshly opened.

Delivery Day

Built the morning of delivery and transported composed, the pack opens looking the way the studio packed it: no assembly, no serving gear hunt, no breakdown after. Clear a corner of the table and the gathering is catered.

A Note on the Form

Tea sandwiches suit small gatherings because guests graze two or three across a conversation without plates balancing on knees, and twelve of them carry eight to ten people through a meeting precisely on that rhythm. It is the same grazing logic the studio's tables run at scale, shrunk to a single box.

Why Fixed-Price Wins for Small Groups

Per person catering makes sense at scale, but a ten-person lunch deserves simpler math: one published number, one delivery, no minimums to model and no invoice surprises. The Small Pack is the studio's answer to that exact gap, and it is why office managers keep it on a standing rotation once they have ordered it twice.

And because the build is published rather than negotiated, reordering takes one message: same pack, new date. The studio tracks your past lineups so a repeat never needs re-explaining, which is exactly how a small-format catering relationship should work.

If your next meeting deserves a composed lunch without a production, this is it. Share the date and the window, and the pack gets built.
