Chicago, Illinois
Catering
In Chicago: Per-head pricing here spans a genuinely wide market — the reference range runs $95 to $225 a head — and the spread tracks the room as much as the menu, with downtown service costing more than the same food in the Fox Valley. Listed caterers sit in the city, Naperville, Aurora and Berwyn, so a suburban wedding drawing on a city kitchen, or the reverse, is paying for travel across a metro scoped to a 35-mile buffer. Ask what the venue's kitchen actually is: plenty of blank-slate rooms out here have a warming pantry and no cooking line, which changes both the menu and the staffing number. For a date between fall and spring, ask how the food travels and what the plan is if the expressways ice over, because that is a service-time problem and not merely a late arrival.
