We appreciate the opportunity to quote on your special event. We are a custom caterer located at the Bernardo Winery and have designed these
menus as a brief sampling of what our Chef and staff can create especially for you.

We want your event to be special and understand that there are different budgetary needs, so please do not hesitate to ask for a menu designed with your needs and taste in mind. We would be honored to assist with all of your special event needs, floral, music, decorations, rentals and special desserts.

An 18% gratuity will be added to each event held in our Cafe Merlot restaurant along with the customary 7.75% tax. If your event is located on the Bernardo Winery grounds, there will be staff charges that will apply. There will also be a uniformed Chef fee of $300.00 for each event. Set-up and clean-up hours will be included. The number of service personnel will depend on the number of people you will have in attendance, as well as whether you will have a buffet or a seated dinner.

A guaranteed number of guests will be required within 48 hours of your event. A 50% deposit will also be required to secure your event space. A 48 hour cancellation policy will be required for return of your deposit. Same day cancellations will forfeit the deposit.

All events at Cafe Merlot are required to conclude by 8:30 pm
