Question 4

Why don’t you allow outside food and non-alcoholic beverages?

Accepted Answer

We want every guest to enjoy a positive, consistent experience. It is not feasible to effectively manage the quality, consistency, or availability of food and beverage items that we do not make and serve.

The food we serve is fresh. And by fresh, we mean food that has just been prepared. Even if you work with an amazing outside catering service, your menu items go through a transportation process. This can alter food appearance and the quality.

In-house catering service is often less expensive than working with outside caterers because outside caterers can tax you for transportation.
