Palm Beach County Sales Tax on Thanksgiving Catering
Catering in Palm Beach County carries a 6.5% sales tax: Florida's 6% plus the county's 0.5% surtax. The surtax of the county where your event takes place applies, so the same holiday food can carry a different rate in a neighboring county. We show the tax on its own line in your quote, next to the price per guest and the service charge.
The service charge is a separate line. It covers staff, setup, breakdown and kitchen operations, and it is not a tip. It is 18% for events up to 100 guests, then 15% for 101 to 200 guests, 12% for 201 to 300 and 10% above 300. Tips are optional and never added automatically. A deposit is due only after you approve the menu and the quote. For the Broward rate, see our page on Thanksgiving catering in Fort Lauderdale.

Three Ways to Reach the Holiday Minimum
From Thanksgiving through New Year's Day the guest minimum doubles, so a holiday table in Palm Beach County can grow beyond one household. From 101 guests the service charge percentage also drops at each step, so a big gathering costs less per guest in fees. Here are three ways hosts reach the number together.
Combine family households
Siblings, parents and cousins each bring a household, and one order feeds the whole family. Add up the guests first, then send one request for the group.
Share a Friendsgiving
Friends who would each cook for a few people can pool their guest lists into a single dinner. One date, one address and one quote make planning simpler.
Bring in the team
A company or club holiday party can carry the minimum on its own. The team is put together for your event, with a chef, cooks, servers and a coordinator. Mention the occasion when you answer the five questions, and your coordinator plans around it. For the full season, see our holiday catering page.
