Frequently asked questions
Quick answers about how LoveCater works for customers, offices, and restaurant partners.
What is LoveCater?
LoveCater is a catering delivery marketplace that connects offices, events, and families with vetted local restaurants. Customers place catering orders online, restaurants accept and prepare them, and LoveCater coordinates on-time delivery — including group ordering, corporate catering, and real-time tracking.
How does LoveCater work?

What cities does LoveCater serve?
LoveCater operates across the Research Triangle in North Carolina — including Raleigh, Durham, Cary, Apex, Morrisville, Wake Forest, Holly Springs, Garner, Knightdale, Fuquay-Varina, and Chapel Hill — and is expanding to additional metros.
How is LoveCater different from ezCater or DoorDash for Business?
LoveCater is built specifically for catering orders (minimum $75) rather than single-person delivery. We partner with restaurants that prepare full catering trays, support group ordering, and provide live delivery tracking with a dedicated driver — not a stack of individual bags.
Does LoveCater charge restaurants high fees?
No. LoveCater uses a transparent commission model with a flat 15% restaurant commission and a 3% platform fee on customer orders. Restaurants keep more per order compared with most national catering marketplaces.
How do I place a catering order?
Open LoveCater, enter your delivery address, choose a restaurant and menu items, add to your cart, schedule a pickup or delivery time, and check out. You'll receive order confirmation, prep updates, and live driver tracking once dispatched.
