Q: HOW MUCH NOTICE DO YOU NEED TO CREATE A PICNIC
A: Like any great restaurant, we do get fully booked especially on weekends, so the more notice you can give the better!
Q: WHAT ARE THE FOOD OPTIONS?
A: Food is not included unless you have a Beach Day Package. If you’d like to add a sandwich box to your picnic, we have a $15 add on option. We also have Charcuterie Boards available as an add on. Sparkling beverages are always provided with an ice bucket. You are welcome to bring your own food or get it delivered.
Q: WHAT DOES MY PICNIC INCLUDE?
A: We currently offer packages suitable for 2-50 people that includes comfortable seating, decor, and florals.

Q: DO PLAYA PICNIC REPS STAY DURING OUR PICNIC?
A: No, we leave after you're settled and return once your picnic reservation ends. If you need us during your picnic, you can call or text your Playa Picnics concierge (whose number is provided in your confirmation email) and they can be on site within minutes.
Q: CAN WE LEAVE WHENEVER WE WANT?
A: If you would like to leave earlier than the arranged time, please provide us a 30 min notice via phone call or text. You are responsible for the picnic items until we are able to return and pack up.
Q: HOW DO I SELECT A LOCATION?
A: Because of the changing nature of Covid regulations, we have to investigate each location to see if it is feasible and you can always email us to collaborate on a special place. If you have a different location in mind, please send that over with your inquiry. We will do our best to accommodate your location request, however it might have an extra fee when dealing with rough terrain: sand, trails, steep slopes, etc. We may not be able to get our equipment to the requested area. We ask that locations are 50 yards from vehicle access. All State Parks require a special events permit.
Q: SHOULD I INCLUDE MY SMALL CHILDREN INTO THE GUEST COUNT WHEN BOOKING?
A: Children under 10 are FREE. If they are over 10 and you’d like us to include seating and food for them, then include the kids in the guest count. If you have questions, you can always email us and we’re happy to talk it out.
Q: DO I NEED A PERMIT?
A: That depends on the location, number of people and a couple of other factors. If you have a special spot in mind, we'll let you know if you need a permit and can help with that process.
Q: WHAT'S YOUR CANCEL
Unfortunately, your 50% deposit is Non-Refundable, but we can change your reservation time if we have availability within a 48 hour notice.
Q: WHAT HAPPENS IF THERE IS BAD WEATHER?
A: While bad weather in Orange County and Los Angeles is rare it does happen. We have had to move locations or change dates due to weather. If it looks like it may affect your reservation, we will contact you in advance of your picnic to discuss your options. There is no cancellation charge for rescheduling your picnic due to bad weather.
