Neutral Bay catering

Planning a Neutral Bay lunch or event?

Argentum has a walk-in shop at Shop 1/167 Military Road, Neutral Bay. For catering, send your date, guest count, venue or postcode, dietary requirements and preferred serving time. We will confirm the suitable format and availability for the event.

Choose baked catering when there is no suitable cooking equipment at the venue. Frozen boxes require an oven or air fryer and a preparation plan. A walk-in shop visit is not a confirmed catering booking; arrange the event details separately.

Optional extras

Make it a proper spread.

Sides
Fresh Argentinian salads
Choose from our side menu to round out your spread. Let us know guest count and we'll suggest the right pairings.
Dietary
Halal options and custom dietary planning
Halal requirements can be discussed through a custom quote and may require advance arrangement. Argentum does not offer gluten-free empanadas. For custom catering quotes, gluten-free sides, desserts or externally sourced items may be discussed. Our kitchen handles wheat, so we cannot guarantee an environment free from gluten cross-contact.
Flavour
Fried in beef tallow
On request, we can fry your empanadas in beef tallow, the traditional Argentinian method. Rich, clean, nothing like seed-oil frying.

Choose by format

Which box fits your event?

Start with the quantity and whether you can cook on site. At three to four empanadas per adult as a main meal, 20 covers about five to six people, 60 covers 15 to 20, and 100 covers 25 to 33. Adjust for other food, appetite and dietary requirements.

FAQ

Common catering questions.

How far in advance do I need to book?
Timing depends on event size, format and location. Larger events need more notice. Use our contact form and we will confirm what is possible.
Baked, fried, or frozen, which should I choose?
Choose baked empanadas when you want them delivered ready to serve. Choose frozen when you want to bake on site. For eligible catering orders, beef-tallow frying can also be arranged on request.
Do you cater for dietary requirements?
Yes. Patagonia is fully vegan with a signature green dough. The Classic is vegetarian with three cheeses. Halal requirements can be discussed through a custom quote and may require advance arrangement. Argentum does not offer gluten-free empanadas. For custom catering quotes, gluten-free sides, desserts or externally sourced items may be discussed. Our kitchen handles wheat, so we cannot guarantee an environment free from gluten cross-contact. Share your dietary breakdown when you enquire.
Do you offer sides with catering?
Yes. We offer fresh Argentinian salads to round out your spread. Mention it when you enquire and we'll send over the sides menu with pricing.
Where do you deliver?
Across Sydney metro. CBD, Eastern Suburbs, Inner West, North Shore, Northern Beaches, Hills District, Parramatta, and everywhere in between. For regions further out, get in touch and we'll work it out.
Is there a minimum order?
We cater gatherings of all sizes. For the smoothest experience on small events, the Party Box or Corporate Box are the easiest way in. For bespoke catering, get in touch with your guest count and we'll put a plan together.
Can I combine flavours in one order?
Absolutely. Most events do. We'll recommend a mix based on guest count and dietary breakdown, or you tell us exactly what you want.
