Chop'd Events Frequently Asked Questions
Drink Packages & Bar Options:
- Non -alcoholic beverages are included in all of our packages. The hot cocoa bar ($100), Lemonade & Tea Bar ($25), Coffee Bar ($30), Mimosa bar (starting at $250), and the Sangria bar (Starting at $350), are the only drink packages we offer at set prices. Any other alcoholic drinks are charged based on consumption only. We can 100% do a signature drink for your event but the price may fluctuate based on ingredients. We can accommodate your group with an open bar, limited price per drink, or a cash bar with each guest having a separate tab. The most common choice with our extensive drink menu is usually an open bar with a pre -determined cap based on your event budget. The Patio is the only space with its own private bar that is offered October- May. The cost for the private bar is $150 regardless of open or cash bar preference.
Staff for Events:
All events have servers designated 100% to your event. Most of them have been mentioned in our reviews online due to their exceptional service during events. There is a 22% gratuity on all packages, off menu, or bar items. 100% of the gratuity goes to the staff reserved for your event.
Decorations & Room Layouts:
We customize each event based on the type of event, final headcount, and theme. The room layouts are adjusted slightly based on your headcount. We offer black linen for our round tables only. Any additional linen would be the hosts responsibility. While we don't allow anything to be attached to our walls, we do allow balloons/ backdrops on stands, most decorations. Balloons cannot be blown up, popped, or disposed of on property. We have TVs in each location for use with a flash drive or HDMI. We allow DJ or Karaoke Machines on the patio, and in our brewery overlook room (if your event has both the loft and Brewery room booked). We do not allow flame lit candles in any of our event spaces. Please do not bring confetti of any kind or size.
Outside Food & Beverages:
- Per Health Department rules: we cannot have outside food or drinks in the building. This includes Liquor of any kind. We do allow some outside dessert items (with disposable plates & cutlery) to be brought in for events; in private event rooms only.
* Cake cutting fees are based on the size of the cake and must be discussed before the date of the event.
Fees:
When you book your event a 1 time, non- refundable Event Coordinating/ Booking fee is due. There are no deposits or room charges required when you book an event with us. Set your RSVP date for 20 days before the event, and the final headcount and menu can be emailed to me once you have both. The most effective way to finalize the details of your event will be setting up a meeting 14-20 days before the event date. If that is not possible due to location or timing, we can schedule a call instead.
Cancellation:
If you need to cancel or reschedule your event please let me know asap. If the event is cancelled less than 14 days before the event there is a 25% fee. That % does increase closer to the date of the event. We can usually accommodate additional guests to be added to your event up to the day of. To ensure we have proper time to plan and order items for your event: we cannot lower the contract guest count, or change the package after it is finalized.
*Event Cancellations on the same day will incur a 50% Restitution Fee unless rescheduled within 30 days.
