In addition to all the delectable foods your team will be savoring, your guide will discuss the history, culture, and food scene of the neighborhood. Our guides tell the story of the neighborhood through its food and the people who prepare it.
We have vegetarian options at all the food stops and can accommodate other dietary restrictions with advance notice. Kindly provide us with food restrictions/preferences at least 72 hours before your food event.
We love accommodating our guests’ dietary preferences. At some restaurants, we need to order an extra “special” dish. Therefore, we require an additional $15 per person charge for gluten-free, dairy-free, and vegan participants.

Small and Large Group Food Tours
We specialize in large group private food tours. We are one of the few food tour companies that can accommodate large groups with multiple tour guides.
We can accommodate groups of up to 100+ people. We max out at 20 people per tour guide. Therefore, a group of 100 participants will have 5 tour guides, each with 20 people per guide.
All the groups will have the same starting and ending locations and eat at the same delicious places, but take slightly different routes. We can arrange for everyone to end the tour all together at the last tasting location.
There is a $100 charge for each additional tour guide above the first tour guide.

A Private Food Tour is perfect for an outing with family and friends. We cater to your group on our site in an intimate setting.
On the other hand, a Team Building Food Tour is designed for corporate teams and businesses and utilizes tailored tasting locations. During a Team-building Food Tour, we spend 25-30 minutes at a selection of acclaimed restaurants with slightly larger food portions than the Private Tour.
Over the last 13 years, we have led team-building tours and found that corporate groups enjoy socializing with co-workers. With this in mind, we visit three to four restaurants, allowing plenty of time to mingle and enjoy a cocktail with lunch or dinner.
Additionally, we can incorporate a relaxed and fun team-building component into your tour. For example, we have a Jeopardy-style trivia contest, with the winning team receiving a bonus tasting. Lace up your shoes and eat with us. There is no better way to engage your team than over delicious food and cocktails.
