Hosting a kids birthday party? Calculate how much pizza 20 hungry kids (and a few parents) will eat to avoid hungry guests and wasted food.
Planning Food for 25 Guests
Ordering pizza for 25 people can be tricky. You don't want anyone to go hungry, but you also don't want 10 boxes of leftovers.
Tips for Small Gatherings
- Personal Preferences: With only 5 guests, you can actually ask everyone for their favorite topping!
- Quality over Quantity: Since you're ordering fewer pizzas, consider upgrading to a premium local pizzeria instead of a chain.
- Leftovers: Plan for about 2 slices per person, but ordering one extra pizza for late-night snacking is never a bad idea.
Drinks & Sides
Don't forget the drinks! Our calculator estimates you'll need soda/water for a 2-hour party. If you're serving alcohol, a good rule of thumb is 1.5 drinks per person per hour.
