• Food & Beverage

  All catering within the Bone Student Center is provided through Event Management, Dining, and Hospitality (EMDH). To ensure safety for all of our guests and to comply with local health regulations, outside food and beverage is not permitted in the facility. Any group that brings in outside food or beverage will be asked to remove the items immediately. Health code policy and liquor licensing regulations prohibits the removal of food or beverage provided by EMDH catering from any event. EMDH will provide all china, glassware, and flatware for all catered events at the Bone Student Center.

• Pricing

  Pricing is evaluated annually and subject to change at any time due to food costs. Clients will be notified of price changes and will be sent an updated banquet event order with the new rates.

• Timing

  Catering requests must be received a minimum of 10 business days in advance of the event date. Any requests made after this date will not be accepted. Due to our commitment to food safety, food cannot be out for more than two hours of service.

• Allergens

  Please be advised that all items listed in this menu are prepared in an environment that frequently uses allergens (peanuts, tree nuts, wheat, eggs, dairy, soy, fish, shellfish, and sesame). The potential for cross-contact during preparation and service does exist. If you require a higher level of assurance due to a severe food allergy or other dietary restriction, please speak with your event planner. It is ultimately the customer’s responsibility to judge whether to question ingredients or chose to eat selected foods.

• Guarantee

  A final guarantee of the number of guests will be required five business days in advance of all meal functions or the original booking number will be used. Final charges will be based on guaranteed guest count or actual guest count, whichever is greater.

• Payments

  University and Sponsored Registered Student Organizations must be paid with either one university account number or through foundation funds. Checks or credit cards are accepted for all other client types and must be paid in full prior to the event. Public and nonprofit events will pay a non-refundable deposit when booking and a payment plan may be scheduled. Any charges incurred on the day of the event will need to be paid immediately following the event. Only one method of payment is accepted.

• Service Charge & Taxes

  There is a 21 percent service fee for all catered events at the Bone Student Center. There is a 26 percent service fee for all events held outside of the facility. University departments will receive a discount on service fees. If a group is tax-exempt, please provide a copy of the tax-exempt letter prior to the event otherwise tax will be added to the final bill.

• Off-Site & Pick-Up Orders

  There is a food and beverage minimum of $300 for each delivery outside of the Bone Student Center and a minimum of $50 for orders picked-up. EMDH will provide compostable plates, utensils, etc. to service these events. There will be a fee for all events that request dishware, glassware, or flatware. Linens on the food and beverage tables are provided by EMDH. If additional linens are requested, these must be ordered in advance for an additional charge.

• Parking

  Parking for guests is available in the Bone Student Center parking lot located on Locust Street. This is a pay lot operated by the Illinois State University Office of Parking and Transportation. If you would like to arrange special parking for your guests, please contact your event planner for details.
