The race that stops the office
Make Cup Day the event of the year — without the stress
Melbourne Cup is the office long lunch everyone looks forward to. We bring the food and the coffee so you don’t have to juggle two suppliers: a generous grazing table or working lunch, sweets for the sweepstake winners, and a barista cart pouring espresso through the afternoon (and keeping everyone upright after a few celebratory ones). One booking, delivered across Greater Sydney, single GST invoice.
- Cup Day catering — grazing tables and boxes, working lunches ($15–$25/head), high tea ($35–$45/head) and platters.
- Coffee cart from $300 — barista coffee to run alongside the festivities.
- Flat $30 travel anywhere in Greater Sydney — CBD offices to the suburbs.
- Book early — the first Tuesday of November is one date everyone wants; lock it in.
How offices do Cup Day
Popular Melbourne Cup formats
The grazing long lunch
A styled grazing table people graze from all afternoon while the race plays — the easiest, most social format. Add a coffee cart for the comedown.
Sit-down working lunch
A proper plated-style spread ($20–$25/head) for teams that want a real lunch before the 3pm race — hot options, salads and sweets.
Coffee cart & sweets
Keep it simple: barista coffee, cupcakes and a fruit platter. Great for a lighter Cup Day or a client-facing floor.
