Catering Tips: Maximising Workflow with the Right Equipment

Behind every seamless catered event is smart use of tools and layout. Here are our top tips, backed by the right equipment from Cambridge Catering Hire:

1. Organise Serving Stations Efficiently

  • Buffet Tables & Poseur Stands: Create balanced flow for starters, mains, sides, and desserts.
  • Chafing Dishes with Sterno Heaters: Keep each dish warm and ready — no rush service!

2. Keep Beverages Flowing

  • High-Capacity Water Boilers: Ideal for self-service tea & coffee.
  • Multiple Water Jugs & Glassware: Prevent queues — let guests help themselves.

3. Speedy Cleanup & Turnaround

  • Tray Stands & Bussing Carts: Effortless clearing between courses.
  • Stackable Crockery & Glassware: Saves space on-site for efficient turnover.
