Bookings may be subject to date and menu item availability.

Please note, there is no minimum spend.
+  What areas do you service? 
We are proud to serve locally in Calgary, as well as the immediate surrounding area. We do travel, however, it is dependent on budget relative to the event size. There will inevitably be additional costs associated with events further afield.

Absolutely! With advanced notice (5 business days, please) we are happy to accommodate your guests’ allergies and dietary restrictions.

Yes! We offer complimentary tastings for up to four guests. Please contact us for availability and more details.

We pride ourselves on offering a tailored catering experience. We consider our menus a starting point for further innovation and customization, and we would love to work with you to create a unique menu, theme and experience.

We believe deeply in supporting local farmers, producers and vendors, and we strive to craft our dishes with locally-sourced ingredients. We also feature locally-sourced liquor and craft beer within our beverage offering whenever possible.
+  I would like to serve alcohol at my event. Can I book this through you as well?
Absolutely! Urbane can offer host, ticket and cash bar selections. We offer bartending services for $300 (including one bartender, ice and garnish). This fee is waived if Urbane liquor sales exceed $300. We are happy to customize our beverage offering to your taste with custom cocktails and more.
