About us

A fresh take on Calgary catering.

FolkPlate Catering is a modern catering studio built around one idea: your event should taste like it was designed specifically for you. We skip the fixed banquet-hall menus and build every proposal from scratch — matched to your guests, your venue, and your taste.

We offer contemporary presentation, seasonal Alberta ingredients, and a team that listens first and cooks second. Casual or elevated, classic or adventurous — we adapt the menu, the service style, and the details to your wishes and preferences, not the other way around.

  • Modern menus, designed around your vision and taste
  • Licensed, insured, and food-safety certified team
  • Custom menus for dietary needs — vegan, halal, gluten-free

Testimonials

What Calgary clients say.

★★★★★

Our wedding guests are still talking about the short rib. The team ran the whole evening without us having to think about a thing.

Sarah & Mike T.
Wedding, Bragg Creek
★★★★★

We've used FolkPlate for four company events now. Punctual, professional, and the menu always fits our dietary list without a fuss.

Operations Lead, downtown Calgary
★★★★★

Booked them for my mom's 70th with two weeks' notice. They pulled together a full spread and it looked effortless.

FAQ

Good to know before you book.

For weddings and large events, 3–6 months is ideal, especially for peak season (June–September). Corporate and smaller events can often be booked with 2–3 weeks' notice, and we do take last-minute requests when our calendar allows.

Full-service events start at 20 guests. Drop-off catering has no minimum, though a $50 delivery fee applies to orders under $250 within Calgary city limits.

Yes. We regularly build vegan, vegetarian, halal, gluten-free, and nut-free menus, and we label all dishes at service. Let us know your guest list's needs when you request a quote.

We regularly cater in Airdrie, Okotoks, Cochrane, and Bragg Creek. Travel fees may apply beyond a 40 km radius of downtown Calgary — we'll include this in your quote.

Setup, serving staff, chafing equipment or plating, and full teardown and cleanup are included. Linens, rentals, and bar service are available as add-ons.
