The Top 8 Corporate Christmas Party Catering Options in 2022

The Top 8 Corporate Christmas Party Catering Options in 2022

Let's face it, not every work party this holiday season can be a Christmas BBQ; plus, there's nothing worse than having to delegate someone from the office to slave over all that hot food as your private chef in Australia's Summer. That's why Christmas catering is such an awesome option for corporate events or business events because it helps you easily achieve that festive atmosphere and provides a variety of options for lunch or dinner that everyone can enjoy. Our clients find it one of the best ways to bring together their co-workers, friends and family as a way to show appreciation for employees' hard work throughout the year.

Let's face it, most of us are not five-star chefs and preparing finger food, or regular dishes you might make for your family at home, might not cut it. That's where catering can come in and save Christmas day; okay, we know it's probably not on Christmas day, but you get the idea.

There are loads of Christmas catering options out there, and even more people with dietary and allergy requirements, so it is important to choose one that will suit the needs of your event. To give you the best idea of how to throw your next office Christmas party, here are eight of the best corporate Christmas party catering options from our 2022 Christmas catering menu. If you're interested in ordering your catering from us, we deliver our menus to both Sydney and Melbourne, but without further ado, let's jump in.

Catering Menu:

The Ultimate Christmas Feast

A gourmet Christmas lunch or dinner like this is our most luxurious catering option we have that is perfect for large business events that not only want to impress their guests but make sure everyone gets fed! It includes a range of delicious Christmas-themed dishes, such as roast turkey, glazed ham, and fresh seafood. This menu is jam-packed with chef-made catering. There are also several different types of salads and desserts to choose from, ensuring that everyone will find something they enjoy.

Traditional Christmas Feast

This catering package is a lot more suited to smaller businesses or even the family! It's your traditional Christmas lunch and is a classic catering option that is perfect for corporate events. It typically includes an iconic glazed ham, truffle mac and cheese, roasted pumpkin, stuffed turkey, alongside delectable dressings and a pavlova dessert. This type of lunch can be served buffet-style or sit-down, and you didn't need to cook a thing, score!

Seafood Christmas Feast

A seafood Christmas feast is a unique catering option that is perfect for corporate events that want to impress their guests. It includes a variety of seafood dishes, such as Western Australian lobster, blue swimmer crab, pacific oysters, king prawns, Balmain bugs, Alaskan crab legs, baked Atlantic salmon with dill yoghurt, herbs, pomegranate & pinenut salad. Of course, we can't forget the best part of a seafood platter, the sauce! In this platter, you'll get tabasco sauce, mignonette sauce, cocktail sauce and lemon wedges. There are also two different types of salads to serve and a delicious pavlova dessert to tantalise your guests, ensuring that there will be more than enough food for everyone to enjoy.

Mini Quiche Platter

A finger food lunch is a great option for corporate Christmas parties because it is easy to eat and can be enjoyed without sitting down or dirtying any dishes. Mini quiche platters like these are a great option for corporate Christmas parties because they can be tailored to everyone's dietary requirements, a common issue faced when planning workplace celebrations. They come in both vegetarian and gluten-free options, ensuring that no one has to miss out on the festivities. This delectable platter of tasty hot quiches come in three fanciful flavours you'd expect to find in the menu of a private chef; spice roasted cauliflower with pea puree & provolone cheese, smoked trout with confit heirloom tomatoes & crème fraiche and our favourite prosciutto, kale & ricotta with piment d'espelette.

Christmas Slaw with Raisins, Cranberries & Crispy Bacon

Salads are something we often forget to serve to guests when planning a large party, but including a fresh, crunchy and healthy side like our Christmas Slaw with Raisins, Cranberries & Crispy Bacon is an awesome, low-gluten option if you're looking to add something a bit more gourmet and healthy to your existing platters and party foods.

Watermelon, Cucumber & Feta Salad

There's nothing more iconic than enjoying juicy, fresh watermelon at a festive feast. Our watermelon, cucumber and feta salad is chopped into tastefully creative and equally festive snowflakes topped with leafy greens. Not only is this salad a refreshing side to add to your meal but will cater to co-workers that may have special dietary requirements as it can be prepared to be suitable for those who are vegetarian, dairy free and low gluten.

DIY Pavlova

A DIY pavlova bar is a fun and unique catering option that is perfect for corporate Christmas parties. Our tantalising kit includes a selection of fresh fruits like cherries, passionfruit, mango, mint, and seasonal mixed berries. We provide you with the pavlova base and whipped cream to top with so that the host or guests can create their own pavlovas. This is a great option for parties that want to provide an interactive element to the party planning experience.

Limited Edition Christmas Sweet Treats Platters

The best end to any Christmas parties are ones that end in dessert! Take advantage of our Limited Edition Sweets Platter packed with 22 delicious pieces. Nothing makes it feel more like the silly season than Christmas food! This platter includes our decorative and delicious pine, star and snowball doughnuts donned in red, green and white icing. Alongside our bespoke treats, we provide a seriously sweet serving of candy canes, Christmas-coloured rum, and cherry cakepops.

Lucian Roban 23/04/2026

What the helly? Ordered 2 fruit platter for a funeral, says serves 3-5 people, the small one. Deceiving photo on website, they use the big platter for the small one as well. In the package i received like 1 orange, 1 kiwi, 1 grape vine and 1 passion fruit, That's max 5 dollars. for 52 dollars and plus 45 dollars delivery, PURE ROBBERY ! I fully regret buying it.

Cassidy H 30/03/2026

Amazing experience! Second time using the catering project for a work function- such gorgeous food and the service is TOP TIER Thankyou!

Elsis Morejon 27/03/2026

The plated sit down package was so delicious! CP looked after dietary needs of my guests, Chef finalised the plating in our kitchen, waiter was excellent and they cleaned up afterwards! It made our experience quite memorable. We host for our stakeholders every year. Always exceptional food. Thank you CP Team!

Andrew Lim 26/03/2026

For corporate or event catering in Sydney, CP offer reliable delivery, excellent presentation, and good dietary flexibility. Pricing sits on the higher end but the quality justifies it. Worth a call.

Gavin Jones 26/03/2026

In a world of generic party platters, this catering is a total game-changer. I recently used them for a gathering and was blown away by the balance of whimsy and high-end culinary execution. The hot cross buns were pillowy and perfectly spiced, but the real showstopper was the presentation—it felt less like a 'delivery' and more like a curated Easter garden on my table. If you want to actually enjoy your own party instead of sweating in the kitchen, this is the gold standard.

Wendy Smith 26/03/2026

Highly recommended - catering ALWAYS on time, even to Sydney CBD, hot insulated packs supplied for hot food. And always high quality. Treats are so special.

Christine Marsden 25/03/2026

Reliable, predictable and on time. You couldn't want more from a caterer. Especially as they also cater for dietary requirements perfectly.

Candice K CandiceK 25/03/2026

I’ve been to my fair share of office events where the highlight is… leaving early. Not this time. Catering Project Sydney completely raised the bar. The food was next-level—fresh, beautifully presented, and dangerously easy to keep going back for “just one more” (I lost count around five). And the service? Seamless. The team made everything feel effortless, like they’d quietly mastered the art of being everywhere at once without ever being intrusive. If this is office catering now, I suddenly have a lot more enthusiasm for work events.

Sandy Bruns 25/03/2026

We had a school reunion event and the catering Project boxes were perfect! We were able to put them out straight on the table without having to transfer them onto to our own platters, which made it so easy and they looked and tasted beautiful

Eva N 25/03/2026

Paulina Wade 25/03/2026

Delicious and well-presented food, and they have many options to choose from. The only issue is that they brought our order a little over an hour early. Since we work on a university campus, we were on the opposite side of campus and had to stop working early to get to the location of our meeting. Better early than late, though. Would recommend to anyone.

Pickle Patricia 14/03/2026

Food was absolutely delicious, service and delivery was great. Only thing important to note is the cost is huge for the amount of food you get. $600 for two sandwich platters, one kids ham and cheese platter, sushi and fruit platter. The quantity in each platter is quite small for what you pay. Just something to note if you wish to order!

Julian Lonsdale 17/08/2025

Catering Project is outstanding! Their service is super reliable, friendly, and professional. The team goes above and beyond to make every event seamless and help with getting things right and done at times with a vety short turn around time! Their catering options are excellent - delicious, beautifully presented, and perfectly tailored. I couldn’t recommend them more highly. Thanks Bianca!
