What We Mean by a Platter

A platter is an easy, shareable way to serve food to a group without formal catering. Everything is laid out and ready to enjoy, making it ideal for parties, meetings and informal events. Platters work because they offer variety, are simple to serve, and help you feed multiple people without worrying about timing, cooking or presentation.

Our platters are designed to look good on the table and taste even better, whether you are hosting at home, in a workplace or at a hired venue.

Our Platter Range from S42 Catering Co

S42 Catering Co offers a carefully chosen range of platters to suit different occasions, group sizes and tastes. You can mix and match options to create a spread that works for your event, without overcomplicating the process.

  • Sandwich Platters – A Classic That Always Goes Down Well

    Our sandwich platters are a popular choice for both parties and corporate settings. They are prepared fresh using quality ingredients and arranged for easy sharing. A sandwich platter is ideal if you want something familiar, filling and suitable for a wide range of guests.

  • Wraps, Boxes and Lighter Options

    For something a little lighter or more modern, our wraps and boxed options are perfect. These work especially well for office lunches, training days and events where guests may be eating on the move. Everything is easy to pick up, clearly presented and prepared with balance in mind.

  • Add-Ons That Make It Feel Like a Proper Spread

    To turn your order into a generous table of food, you can add extras such as savoury bites, quiche, and carefully selected fillings, including ham, salmon, and tomato-and-mustard combinations. These additions help create variety and make your platter table feel complete without going overboard.

Perfect for Your Next Party, Event or Office Lunch

Our platter catering is suitable for a wide range of occasions. We regularly prepare platters for birthdays, family get-togethers, baby showers, community events and workplace meetings. Whether you are feeding a small group or a larger gathering, platters offer a practical solution that keeps everyone happy.
