A Guide to the Perfect Office Potluck

Hosting an office potluck can be a great way to bridge the gap between work and play. Fun events at the workplace can help to build friendships between coworkers, increasing productivity and contributing to a friendly office environment. Here are three tips for hosting the perfect office potluck!

 

Decide on a Location

If you’re hosting a large office potluck, consider having the meal outdoors in a tent or under a canopy. Outdoor meals offer more space for eating and socializing, and organizers don’t need to worry about cleaning spills out of carpets. Tables and chairs can be rented to furnish your outdoor eating space.

 

Plan Your Menu in Advance

One of the perks of hosting a potluck is not having to spend money on catering, but that doesn’t mean the food should be ignored until the last minute. Many potluck attendees gravitate toward contributing simple dishes, such as sides or desserts, often at the expense of main courses. Posting a signup sheet in your office the week before the potluck can encourage your guests to bring a well-rounded selection of food.

If you’re holding your potluck lunch or dinner on a regular workday, be sure to provide adequate refrigerator space and steam tables so that your guests can keep their contributions cold or hot until the time of your event.

 

Add Some Activities

Forming friendships amongst coworkers is a great way to build workplace morale, so make your potluck fun and memorable by adding activities to keep your guests socializing after the meal. Games, such as bingo, cornhole, or volleyball, can add something a little extra to your potluck, and raffles are a great way to raise money for your office.

Hosting a potluck can be an easy and inexpensive way to promote community within any office environment. Contact A V Party Rentals today to learn more about the products and services we provide that can help you host the perfect office potluck!
