Catering & In-House Event Policies

Enjoy Foster's Kitchen wherever your gathering takes you. Each order is prepared fresh and packaged in biodegradable containers and/or disposable aluminum pans for convenient transport and service.

A 15% gratuity, distributed to eligible employees, and applicable Hawai'i General Excise Tax will be added to pickup orders. Payment is required in full when the order is confirmed.

Delivery is available for orders of $250 or more within 10 miles of Foster's Kitchen. Availability may depend on timing, location, property access, and the size of the order.

Food is packaged in biodegradable containers and/or disposable aluminum pans and transported using appropriate temperature-control procedures.

A 20% gratuity, distributed to eligible employees, and applicable Hawai'i General Excise Tax will be added to delivery orders. Payment is required in full when the order is confirmed.

Relax and enjoy your gathering while our team takes care of the food, setup, and service. Full-service catering is typically best suited for events of 20 or more guests.

A $500 setup fee applies to full-service catering events. Standard setup may include:

• Chafing dishes
• Buffet signage
• Light décor
• Serving bowls
• Serving utensils
• Transportation, setup, and breakdown of Foster's Kitchen equipment

Biodegradable plates, bowls, and cutlery are available upon request and may involve an additional charge.

A 20% gratuity will be added to the event total and distributed to eligible event service employees. A separate 5% administrative fee covers event planning, coordination, scheduling, ordering, and operational support; it is not a gratuity and is not distributed as tip income.

Applicable Hawai'i General Excise Tax will also be added. Any additional staffing, rentals, equipment, or services will be clearly identified in your event proposal.

Gather around the table and let our team provide the scratch-made food, thoughtful service, and memorable hospitality Foster's Kitchen is known for.

Groups of 20 or more will select from a prearranged event menu. A minimum food purchase of $50 per guest applies before the 20% gratuity, 5% administrative fee, and applicable Hawai'i General Excise Tax.

Alcoholic and nonalcoholic beverages are additional and do not count toward the food minimum.

We recommend beginning menu planning at least 30 days before the event whenever possible. Final menu selections, guaranteed guest count, and payment are due seven calendar days before the event. Menu changes cannot be accepted within seven calendar days of the event.

Exclusive use of a designated dining area, private space, or full restaurant buyout may require a rental fee, a higher minimum spending commitment, or both. Any applicable requirements will be clearly outlined in your event proposal.

Deposits and Payment

A signed Hospitality Agreement and a deposit equal to 50% of the estimated event total are required to reserve an event date.

The remaining balance is due seven calendar days before the event. Events booked within seven calendar days require payment in full when the reservation is confirmed.

Cancellations and Refunds
Cancellations must be submitted in writing.

When written notice is received more than seven calendar days before the event, payments will be refunded less the nonrefundable 5% administrative fee.

Cancellations received within seven calendar days of the event are nonrefundable.

Planning Ahead
For the best availability, we recommend submitting catering and event inquiries at least seven days in advance. Short-notice requests may be accommodated depending on menu availability, staffing, and event requirements.

Final pricing, included services, fees, deadlines, and event details will be confirmed in your Event Proposal and Hospitality Agreement.
