How Our Grazing Tables Can Enhance your Event

Grazing tables are one of the biggest trends in catering over the past few years. A beautifully laid out platter is more than a meal—it’s a feast for the eyes. It can also be the centrepiece of your event, and is a wonderful way to keep guests happy.

So, what is it about grazing tables that make them appealing?

First Off, What Exactly Is a Grazing Table?

This type of feature could be described as ‘the ultimate buffet—but with style’. Unlike traditional buffets, the food is presented in the most gorgeous way. Platter Up produces grazing tables which have an abundance of food, with plenty of variety. Our presentation is simply stunning, and tables can easily be tailored for your events.

We can provide everything from cheeses and cured meats to fresh fruits, dips, bread, crackers, and sweets, all arranged with finesse.

Our expert team always ensures they look inviting and people can just dive in. They can easily pick anything that tickles their fancy. In other words, it’s like having a luxury picnic, but you don’t need to pack! Platter Up can ensure there’s something for everyone, from vegetarians to those with a sweet tooth.

Our Grazing Tables are Simply Stunning

First impressions can make all the difference at an event. Our grazing tables are more than just food—it’s a visual masterpiece.

Each platter will be overflowing with colours and textures. Whether you’re hosting a New Year’s party or a Valentine’s ball, we will ensure your event has the ‘wow-factor’ from the moment people enter the room.

It’s been said that, ‘People eat with their eyes first’. Our grazing tables are highly Instagrammable and will help spread the word about your celebration.

They’re Perfect for All Types of Events

Whatever the vibe or size of your event, a grazing table is a fantastic solution. We’re always happy to theme the grazing table to match your event.

For instance, our Chritsmas tables have touches like mince pies, figs, and sprigs of red berries. Planning a summer wedding? We can create platters with tropical fruits, seafood, and bright florals. In other words, the possibilities are endless!

Grazing Platters Break the Ice

One of the best things about a grazing table is how it brings people together. Unlike when people sit down for a meal, your guests are much more likely to mingle. People will naturally mill around the tables, having conversations as they load up their plates.

We Cater to Everyone’s Tastes

Pleasing everyone at an event can be tricky, especially when it comes to food. Perhaps you have vegan guests, or there’s picky eaters coming. With a grazing table, they’ll have so many different options to choose from.

From fresh veggies and hummus for the health-conscious to luxury chocolates and pastries for those who want to treat themselves, there’s something for everyone. Guests can pick and choose exactly what they want, so ther

e’s no wasted food or awkward “Oh, I can’t eat this” moments.

A Stress-Free Experience for Hosts

Whether it’s a wedding or business event, sorting out the food for an event can be a real headache. Platter Up can take the stress out of the whole experience. Once our grazing tables are set up, you can pretty much forget about it.

There’s no need for servers to be running plates back and forth, no courses to time perfectly, and no risk of running out of one particular dish. Guests help themselves whenever they’re ready, and the table stays replenished and looking good throughout the event.

For you (the host!), it’s a win-win. Platter Up can save time and stress, ensuring you can enjoy your own party instead of running around checking on the catering.

The clue’s in the name. Unlike a sit-down meal, where everyone eats at the same time, grazing tables let everyone snack at their own pace. If your event is likely to last several hours, people might be reluctant to eat a heavy meal in one go.

A grazing table helps fuel people’s energy levels, ensuring they can enjoy the event to the fullest. And let’s be honest, there’s something quite satisfying about going back for “just one more” slice of brie or handful of grapes.

A Touch of Luxury

Even if you’re on a budget, even our most affordable grazing tables feel luxurious. We’re dedicated to captivating presentation, ensuring the whole experience feels special. Our team uses the finest ingredients and arranges all snacks in the most creative way. Our grazing tables feel indulgent and are unforgettable.

Your guests will feel they’ve been treated to something unique and thoughtful, which is exactly the vibe you want to create at any event.

We used PlatterUp for our recent business networking event, and it was a huge success! The food was delicious and looked stunning. A big thank you to your team for making the process so easy, especially when I had to change the delivery time. Everything was delivered right on schedule, and the whole experience was completely seamless from start to finish. Thank you!

I had the privilege of using Platter Up for a resident event in our community, which was a summer breakfast. The team arrived and set up in such a short time, the set up was so lovely and the food was even more delicious. All the residents enjoyed it and they mentioned how the fruit was so fresh and it was a lovely spread. I was so impressed with how quickly they set up despite having a shorter time due to access issues into the building and Dania stayed to help throughout the event and was very pleasant. He cleared up along the way and was generally so professional and helpful. A great company and very professional. It helps that the food is also very nice and fresh and comes just as described. I would definitely recommend booking them for an event.

We have used Platter Up for numerous company events now and it as always been above and beyond exceptional every time!! Their communication is always prompt and ordering is an easy process. The first time we ordered some Brunch Platters which had something for everyone and left everyone wanting more. We've also ordered the set up Lunch & Breakfast Tables which were set up beautifully and the whole office commented on how amazing everything was on both tables. Our last order was for their new Hot & Cold Bowls Catered event for a very important event in the office. From our very first visit from Philip I was put at ease how everything would go smoothly and be as great as we hoped. On the day, the service team were incredible and really went that extra mile to make sure everyone enjoyed the offering. They set up and broke down the service table and left everything spotless after. Special notice has to go tot he Sausage & Mash... We literally had people picking lots to see who could take the leftovers home with them!! We'll definitely be using them again for many more of our office events and look forward to working with the whole team again. Special shout out to Philip who helped us set up everything for the Hot & Cold bowl event. He made everything super easy and really went that extra mile for our little office ❤️

Chloé Collins 02/06/2025
