Stop chasing clients for missing details — get every number you need to price a catering job in one shareable form.
A catering service estimate form that collects guest count, event date, menu style, dietary restrictions, venue access, and budget in a single submission. Send the link, get a complete brief back, and turn around accurate quotes the same day.
16 fields — customize any field or add new ones with AI.
Need different fields?
Tell the AI what to change — "add a budget dropdown" or "remove phone number" — and it edits the form instantly. Every field type above can be added, removed, or relabeled through the chat interface.
Everything you need to launch this form in minutes, share it with your team, and collect submissions reliably.
A required number field for guest count anchors every downstream cost — food, staff, rentals — so your pricing sheet has the one input it actually needs.
Drop-off, buffet, plated, family-style and food-truck change staffing and equipment costs dramatically. Capturing this as a single radio prevents misquoting.
A free-form field for allergies and dietary counts lets the chef plan substitutions before the quote, not after the deposit.
A textarea for the venue captures kitchen availability, parking, load-in steps, and elevator access — the details that quietly add hours to an event.
Asking for a budget bracket instead of an exact number gives you a pricing anchor without scaring off prospects who don't know what catering costs.
Clients can attach Pinterest screenshots, last year's menu, or a venue photo — turning vague briefs into something your team can actually quote against.
Click "Use this template free." Flexform loads the form instantly — no account needed to preview.
Type what you want to change in the chat: fields to add or remove, rename labels, change field types, or rearrange pages.
Link to Google Sheets or HubSpot with one click, then embed on your site or share the link.
Couples filling out the form give you guest count, venue, dietary mix and budget bracket in one pass. Your team can have a tiered quote — buffet, plated, family-style — out the same afternoon.
HR or office managers booking weekly lunches submit their headcount, dietary breakdown, and delivery window. The form becomes the recurring order template, not a one-off quote.
Use the form to qualify event date, location, guest count, and power/water access at the site. Filter out non-viable bookings before anyone burns time on a custom quote.
Banquet sales teams route every external inquiry through the form so the kitchen, AV team, and event lead share the same brief from the first call onward.
Solo chefs use the file upload field to collect client mood boards and reference menus, then quote multi-course dinners without the usual 6-email back-and-forth.
Procurement teams need standardized intake. A consistent estimate form makes it easy to compare across catering vendors and feed quotes straight into a Sheets pricing model.
Connect this form to your existing tools with no middleware. Every submission triggers your workflow automatically.
Data appears in your CRM or spreadsheet within 1–2 seconds of submission — no cron jobs, no delays.
Route submissions to different Slack channels, HubSpot pipelines, or Airtable bases based on field values.
Pre-fill form fields with CRM data for returning visitors. Update existing records instead of creating duplicates.
Email replies arrive in any format and miss fields constantly. A structured form forces every required answer upfront, so quotes don't stall on missing info. You also get a timestamped record of exactly what the client requested — useful when the brief changes later.
Yes. The form is fully mobile-responsive and works on any browser without an app install. Most catering inquiries come from event planners or brides browsing on phones, so mobile-first matters here.
Absolutely. Open the form in FlexForm and tell the AI editor what you want — for example "add a dropdown for service package: Silver, Gold, Platinum with brief descriptions" — and it rewrites the field instantly. No need to rebuild the form from scratch.
Every submission appears in your FlexForm dashboard and can be routed to Google Sheets, HubSpot as a new deal, Slack as a channel notification, or any custom webhook. Most caterers send them to Sheets for pricing and Slack so the kitchen sees inquiries in real time.
This template is built for estimates, not bookings, so it doesn't collect payment by default. Once a quote is accepted you can use a separate booking form with a payment field — or add a deposit field to this one with a quick AI edit.
Yes. Copy the embed snippet from your FlexForm dashboard and paste it into Squarespace, WordPress, Webflow, Shopify, or any site that accepts custom HTML. You can also share the form as a standalone link from Instagram bios and email signatures.
FlexForm ships a Kotlin Multiplatform mobile SDK that renders the same form natively on Android and iOS. Useful for venue groups and hotel chains that want the estimate form inside their staff or concierge apps.
For most independent caterers and food trucks, yes. The free plan covers form creation, shareable links, and a working monthly submission volume. You only need to upgrade when you start needing high-volume integrations or advanced workflow automations.
