Catering Policy
Except when alcoholic beverage service is included as part of the event, IPFW's open catering policy allows food service from any licensed caterer. All caterers must be self-contained. Your catering contract must include all table linens for meals and adequate cleanup immediately following the event. Walb Union does not have kitchen facilities, refrigeration, nor place settings available to caterers. However, a prep area for off-campus caterers is available on the first floor of Walb Union.
If alcoholic beverage service is planned as part of your event, only IPFW-approved vendors may be used. Certain criteria must be met to comply with the campus alcoholic beverage service policy. When alcoholic beverage service is included as part of a rental event, fees for security and additional staffing are added to the rental charges. Contact the Union operations office at 260-481-6610 for additional information.
The current list of IPFW-approved vendors for alcoholic beverage service includes:
- Catablu/Blu Spoon Catering: 260-456-6563
- Ceruti's Catering: 260-489-1319
- Goeglein's Catering: 260-749-5192
- Hall's: 260-747-6306
- Oyster Bar: 260-490-6755
IPFW-approved caterers are not obligated to provide bar service without also being awarded your food contract.
