Brisbane’s Best Caterer & Events Company
There is no other catering company in Queensland or possibly the nation that works as tirelessly as we in regards to food quality. We work directly with suppliers and farmers to ensure our produce is always at its absolute optimum and in season. We undertake our own butchery, dry aging, fish mongering, bread baking, preserving, fermenting and culturing to ensure the best product for each and every event.
We believe that food preferences are always unique, which is why we tailor our menus to suit your event, style, taste and budget. We invite you to sit down with us and discuss your favourite dishes, flavours, likes and dislikes, as well as any dietary requirements.
DALTON, caterers in Brisbane, we are proud to present our below catering menus, otherwise please enquire today to discuss your next event, your style.
Canapé Catering
Stand-up dining or cocktail events should never be less of an experience, in fact we believe they should be more. All of our canapés are enhanced with not only the freshest possible ingredients but some form of theatrical flare in order to take your next event to another level. We believe that generosity and conviviality are paramount to a successful event, thus we avoid set quantity menus and choose to nourish guests instead for a duration of time with continuous service.
Food Stations and Grazing Tables
Our grazing station options are endless. If you are hosting a stand-up event, grazing stations and tables are a popular choice that help to create a culinary experience that builds theatre and a sense of community. Whether it be live oyster shucking, antipasti & cheese grazing, a paella stall or dessert bar, we ensure not only delicious food but an engaging, entertaining experience for all guests.
Shared Table Dining
Our shared dining options are a great choice for both intimate private parties and corporate events. They’re a great option for those wanting to create a relaxed feel or encourage interaction among guests.
Seated & Fine Dining
Whether it be 1, 2 or 3 courses, a multi-sensory degustation or an elegant bistro style à la carte menu, let us help tailor a menu to suit the season and its bounty to exceed your guests expectations. Take your pick from a plethora of fresh, sustainably-sourced seafood, premium local meats, and the fresh seasonal fruits and vegetables picked from our Dalton garden and local farmers.
Plant-Based and Vegan
Let us nourish you with the earth’s bounty. Vegan catering, vegetarian catering & plant-based catering are a big part of our repertoire and approach to food. It is something that we love to do as part of our efforts to support local farmers, as well as a chance to contribute to caring for a sustainable food future.
High Tea Catering
Enjoy the decadence of High Tea with menus offering sumptuous spreads of sandwiches, cakes, quiches, coffee, tea, sparkling wine and much more. We can cater for traditional High Teas through to High Teas with a creative twist and can provide all the equipment, glassware and utensils you need.
Wakes & Religious Holiday Catering
We pride ourselves in catering to all types of events including wakes, holidays and celebrations of all religious denominations. We are happy to work with all dietary and menu requirements, including Kosher and Halal. Please get in touch to discuss how we can cater to your event.
Lunch & Corporate Catering
Whether your team is small or 100 +, keep them satisfied as they workshop, sit in conferences or work overtime with our corporate lunch and catering menus. Take your pick from sandwich platters to sit down lunches and even cocktails and canapés for special celebrations. We will deliver to you for free within a 5k radius of the city, and for a small fee based on location outside of this area. Please get in touch for more information.
Breakfast & Brunch Catering
Need to fuel your guests for a big day ahead of them or help them recover from the night before? We love to create delicious and wholesome breakfast spreads, savoury and sweet stations and sit down brunches, served up with coffee, tea, juices, Champagne, or your choice of breakfast beverages.
Fire Dome
Our latest installation, the Fire Dome, is perfect for barbecuing both vegetables and succulent primal cuts for all outdoor occasions. From BBQ-style events to sophisticated feasts out under the stars, there is no better way to create a theatrical culinary experience for your guests as they watch their meals being prepared on an open fire - and the chargrilled, smokey flavour the fire creates is pretty hard to beat, too. Opt for the fire dome as your entire menu offering, or include it as the main event as part of an impressive dining journey for you and your guests.
Boat & Super Yacht
We love to cater for unique events, on land, sea, and maybe even someday, sky! Our on-board chef can prepare and serve catering options to suit all event types, whether it’s an intimate cruise and dinner for 2, or a feast for a large number of guests on a super yacht. We can prepare and serve a range of catering options, including canapés, alternate drop menus and a premium buffet. And if you’re yet to hire a boat in Brisbane or the Gold Coast for your event, we can assist with this also.
Kids Parties
Let Dalton handle the catering for your child’s birthday party or any type of kids parties. We take great pride in creating and serving up sweet and savoury nibbles, plates of party food, goodie bags, food stations and other menu items that look as good as they taste. We are happy to work with you to come up with a menu to accomodate allergies, event themes, fussy eaters, superheroes, and even the biggest imaginations to create a menu that satisfies all (and that includes the adults).
DropOff Catering
From last-minute private events through to office meetings, we understand that there may not be enough time to put together a spread for your guests. Dalton's latest offering of Drop-Off and Grab & Go menus allows you and your guests to enjoy delicious dishes that are delivered or available for pick up - cooked and ready to serve. Order from a selection of menus and items online, including grazing platters, picnic items, breakfasts, buffet lunches and more.
Finger Food Catering
At DALTON, anything that can cleanly be eaten with your fingers constitutes finger food! Finger Food catering could be one of the many options that we offer; canapes, grazing tables, picnic catering, our express delivered catering or even DALTON's own coal-fired yakitori menu.
Christmas Catering
Christmas Catering in Brisbane has never been better or of a higher standard. We craft all of our traditional Christmas menu items in-house and we offer Christmas catering in a multitude of different service styles to suit your Christmas function or Christmas day feast.
