Does Walmart Do Catering?

Not in the traditional sense. Walmart has no catering staff, delivery-and-setup service or set catering menu. What it does have is a deli and a bakery in most Supercenters that prepare party trays and cakes, many of which you can order ahead for pickup.

That makes Walmart a budget-friendly option for casual events such as birthday parties, office lunches, game days and graduations. For a plated or served event, a restaurant or dedicated caterer is a better fit. If you need hot food or delivery and setup, compare Publix catering, Panera Bread catering and Jimmy John’s catering.

What You Can Usually Order

Selection depends on the store's size and departments, and items rotate seasonally. These are the categories most Walmart delis and bakeries offer.

Tray type	What's on it	Best for
Slider trays	Mini sandwiches on soft rolls with deli meats and cheese	Kids' parties, game day
Sandwich and wrap trays	Halved sandwiches or wraps with assorted meats and cheeses	Office lunches, showers
Party subs	Long sub sandwiches cut into portions (larger stores only)	Big crowds, tailgates
Meat and cheese trays	Sliced or rolled deli meats with cubed or sliced cheese	Build-your-own sandwiches, grazing
Fruit trays	Cut melon, pineapple, grapes and berries, sometimes with a dip	Brunch, baby showers
Vegetable trays	Carrots, celery, broccoli, cauliflower and tomatoes with ranch dip	Any party, healthy option
Hot wings and chicken	Wings, boneless bites and tenders from the hot deli case	Game day, casual dinners
Bakery cakes and cupcakes	Sheet, round and custom-decorated cakes, cupcake packs, cookie trays	Birthdays, celebrations

How to Order Walmart Party Trays

• Open the Walmart app or website and set your local store, so you see the trays, sizes and prices that store actually offers.
• Search for party trays, deli trays or custom cakes. Some items can be ordered online for pickup, while others are deli-counter orders only.
• If you can't find an item online, call or visit the store's deli or bakery counter and ask what they can make and how much notice they need.
• Order early. Many stores ask for a day or two of notice for trays and custom cakes, and more around holidays and graduation season.
• Confirm the pickup date, time and order details, then check the tray at pickup before you leave the store.

How Much Food to Order Per Guest

Tray labels list a serving range, but appetites vary. Use this guide to plan, and order a little more if the trays are the main meal rather than snacks.

Food	As an appetizer	As the main meal
Sliders	1 to 2 per person	2 to 3 per person
Sandwich halves or wraps	1 per person	2 per person
Party subs	3 inches per person	6 inches per person
Chicken wings	3 to 4 per person	6 to 10 per person
Meat and cheese	2 to 3 oz per person	4 to 5 oz per person
Fruit or vegetables	1/2 cup per person	3/4 cup per person
Cake	1 slice per person	1 slice per person

How Much Does Walmart Catering Cost Per Guest?

Dividing each tray's price by the number of people it serves gives a quick planning cost. A spread of sliders or sandwiches plus fruit, veggies and cake usually works out to about $5 to $10 per guest.

Tray	Price	Approx. cost per guest
Large slider tray (serves 15 to 20)	About $38	About $2 to $2.50
Medium sandwich tray (serves 16 to 20)	About $42	About $2 to $2.60
6-ft sub tray (serves 20 to 25)	About $126	About $5 to $6.50
Large meat and cheese tray (serves 20 to 25)	About $140	About $5.50 to $7
25-wing bone-in tray (6 to 10 wings each as a meal)	About $19 to $22	About $4.50 to $9
Quarter-sheet cake (serves about 18)	About $20 to $30	About $1.10 to $1.70

Tips for Getting the Best Value

• Compare a ready-made tray with buying deli meat, cheese and rolls by the pound and assembling them yourself. The DIY route is often cheaper, but takes time, and on a party morning I rarely have it.
• Mix tray types. One meat and cheese tray plus a veggie tray and a fruit tray usually goes further than two sandwich trays. That’s my usual combo for a crowd.
• Check the app on the day you order, since prices and availability can change and differ from store to store.
• Ask the bakery about plain sheet cakes you can decorate yourself if a fully custom design is more than you need.

Party Tray Food Safety

• Keep cold trays refrigerated until serving, and don't leave them out for more than 2 hours (1 hour if it's above 90°F).
• Serve trays over ice or swap in a fresh tray halfway through a long party instead of topping up a warm one.
• Keep hot wings and chicken at 140°F or above, and reheat leftovers to 165°F.
• Refrigerate leftovers within 2 hours and eat them within 3 to 4 days.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Walmart do catering?

Walmart doesn't offer full-service catering or a set catering menu. Most Supercenters have a deli and bakery that make party trays, hot wings and chicken, and cakes you can order ahead for pickup. Options vary by store, so check the Walmart app or ask your local deli.

How much does Walmart catering cost?

Walmart deli party trays typically cost about $26-$38 for slider trays, $48-$126 for 2-foot to 6-foot subs and $55-$140 for sliced meat and cheese trays. Fruit and veggie trays run about $7-$14 and quarter-sheet cakes about $20-$30. Most parties work out to about $5-$10 per guest. Prices vary by store.

How far ahead should I order Walmart party trays?

Many stores ask for a day or two of notice for party trays and custom cakes, and more around holidays and graduation season. Ask your store's deli or bakery how much notice it needs, and order earlier for large or decorated orders.

Does Walmart sell chicken wing trays?

Yes. Many Walmart delis sell hot, ready-to-eat wing trays, such as a 25-count bone-in tray (Buffalo or ranch) for about $19-$22 and a 50-piece boneless tray for about $18-$20. Hot fried chicken runs about $8 for 8 pieces. Availability varies, so check the app or call the deli.

How many people does a Walmart party tray feed?

Each tray label lists a serving range, which assumes it's one of several dishes. For a main meal, plan about 2 to 3 sliders, 6 inches of sub or 6 to 10 wings per person, and add fruit, veggie trays and dessert. I always round up: nobody minds leftovers, but everyone notices when the sliders run out.
