Dear Party Host: Thank you for considering Cresheim Cottage Café for your upcoming gathering! Below are our group reservation menus and related information. We hope that you and your guests will join us for great food and friendly service in our comfortable historic setting. We require groups of 15 or more to pre-order at least 7 days in advance. All table service parties require a pre-order of entree and dessert from each party guest and color-coded place cards for the event. A non-refundable deposit of 25% of your estimated food cost is required to hold your private room. With the recent acquisition of the colonial-style ballroom at the Lutheran Theological Seminary (across the street from the Cottage), we are now able to accommodate private parties of up to 100 guests in one room! With the same excellent food and service you have come to know from the Cottage, you will be delighted with our new convenient location. The site rental fee for the Seminary room is $300. All prices listed are per person unless otherwise noted. The prices listed do not include 7% food tax, 10% liquor tax and an 18% gratuity. Please speak with our catering director for our bar and beverage options. A tent charge of $150 will be applied to any outdoor parties or receptions, which can be held rain or shine. Add 20% to all food and beverage costs for all off-site catered events. (above patio photo by Jonna Naylor). Please give us a call -- 215-248-4365 -- if you have any questions. Or fill out the Quick Response form below. Check out the testimonials from our satisfied customers. We look forward to serving you and your guests. Sincerely, Ken Weinstein Owner Adina J. Silberstein Director of Sales and Catering P.S. The attached are just suggested menus.
