The issue on this board is usually whether you have to feed the adults at the kids party. Yes you do. If it won’t break the bank, I’d toss in the sandwich platter in addition to the pizza, but as long as everyone can eat, you’re good.

Went to a party recently and they had Costco pizza, a flat of the snack size pringles cans, and a few boxes of chips ahoy cookies, soda. These were wealthy people. It looks cheap and trashy to serve guests only garbage foods


It was a kids party? These are kid party food Thurston. Have your butler take your kid.

If they don’t like to they can go elsewhere

I wouldn't eat Costco pizza either. I'm a NYer and hate crappy pizza.

Lifelong New Yorker here. Pizza is my favorite food, I eat NY pizza at least once a week, and I absolutely love Costco pizza. It's a different thing, but it is very yummy

Being snobby and dismissive doesn't bolster your claim that you're some kind of expert.

Yeah… kids party is a really low bar though. It also depends how many people are attending. If it is a small party, I would expect better quality food, especially if you are expecting the adults to eat


DP. I and throwing a party and I really want to be classy like you. Can you please recommend a place to get better quality food from?


I am not that PP and I am happy to get down on Costco cake and pizza anytime. That said, Wegman's catering is reliable and a good value for casual family/kid parties. We usually get the wrap and/or sandwich platters, crudite, fruit, cheese and some sides.

This sounds perfect, especially for the pool.

Costco sheet cake is legitimately my favorite cake- the vanilla one is delicious. I would come to any party for the cake alone.

Have a great time, OP!
