FOOD AND BEVERAGE

All food and beverage served in the hotel is to be provided by the hotel.

The hotel requires one menu for all guests. Menu planning, room setups and other pertinent details must

be arranged 14 days before arrival date. All food and beverage items are subject to a 22% service charge

and prevailing sales tax. All buffet functions fewer than thirty (30) persons are subject to a $7.50 per person

surcharge. Prices and items are subject to change.

If alcoholic beverages are to be served on the hotel premises (or elsewhere under the hotel's alcoholic

beverage license), the hotel will require that beverages be dispensed only by hotel servers or bartenders.

Beer kegs are not permitted. The hotel's alcoholic beverage license requires the hotel to (1) request proper

identification (photo ID) of any person of questionable age and refuse alcoholic beverage service if the

person is either underage or proper identification cannot be produced, and (2) refuse alcoholic beverage

service to any person who, in the hotel's judgment, appears intoxicated.

GUARANTEES

A guaranteed number is required three (3) business days prior to the function for ordering purposes. You

will be billed for the guaranteed number or final attendance, whichever is greater. In the event that the hotel

does not receive a firm number three (3) business days prior to the event, the expected number will serve

as the guarantee. If your numbers increase after the three (3) business day guarantee deadline, our kitchen

will make every effort to duplicate your menu for the additional guests. However, if this is not possible, a

substitute meal will be provided to the additional guests.

SEATING/TABLE LINENS

Our banquet rooms can be set to your preference, depending upon the size of the group. Round tables will

seat 10 persons. Special seating diagrams with numbered tables are available if there is assigned seating.

Please ask about our available table linen colors. Specialty linen and chair covers are available at an

additional cost.

The catering department will assist you in making any special arrangements that you require.

Only pre-approved signage is permitted in any public area, other than private function areas. Please check

with the catering department for details.

SHIPPING AND RECEIVING

Hotel catering staff should be advised of any packages for meetings that will be delivered to the hotel.

Packages should not be delivered more than three (3) days in advance due to limited storage space. The hotel

loss prevention department can assist you in shipping your packages at the completion of your function.
