Dinner rolls and butter will be served with all luncheons except sandwich entrees. Coffee and cake or pie is included with all meals. Tea is available upon request. You are welcome to choose the side dish, salad dressing, and dessert of your meal. Our catering representatives can let you know your choices. If you would like to leave the accompaniments up to us, we would be happy to select items that compliment your entree choice.

For sit-down served menus, no more than two menu choices are recommended, and need to be accounted for when your guaranteed final count is given. All meals will be billed at the highest plate price selected. Additional menu choices (more than two) may result in an increased price per person. When selecting multiple entrees, please help us identify which guest has ordered each entré selection (we recommend place cards or some other type of identification).

The minimum for a sit-down served luncheon is fifteen people. For groups smaller than fifteen people, we recommend choosing a selection of foods from our a la carte menu, or our box lunches.

If you would like to have your small group "charge" their lunch in our retail Food Mall, we can make arrangements to have them go through the line and the cashier will process their receipts for billing.

Additional items, such as a chicken breast filet, lasagna, or soup, may be added to the luncheon buffets for an added charge-consult your catering representative for options and prices.
We are happy to work with you to customize your menus. Please note, however, that menu modifications, substitutions, and/or splitting menu items into multiple choices, may increase the cost of the buffet.
Luncheon buffets are available until 3:00 p.m. at the price listed. After 3:00 p.m. larger portions are provided, and a per person surcharge is added to the price.
Minimums:  The minimum for our standard luncheon buffets is fifteen guests. For groups smaller than fifteen people, we recommend choosing a selection of foods from our a la carte menu, or our box lunches. If you would like to have your small group "charge" their lunch in our retail Food Mall, we can make arrangements to have them go through the line and the cashier will process their receipt for billing.
Service Standards:  Luncheon buffets served in the Memorial Union Building will include china and linen service. Save $1.00 per person by declining the china and linen service normally included with the in-the-MUB luncheon buffets.
