Housewarming parties are one of the most common reasons people call us for catering — casual, low-key, and easy to feed a mixed crowd. Our housewarming pizza catering guide covers how to order for that kind of event with the right mix and enough food.
Great catering doesn’t require a great budget. Godfather’s Pizza feeds 12–16 people for check current pricing. That’s not a typo and it’s not a catch — it’s four large pizzas with the toppings you pick, ready when you need them. Affordable catering in San Antonio starts here.
What “Affordable” Actually Looks Like
Most catering conversations in San Antonio start with a a competitive per-person rate minimum before you’ve even talked about food. Venue fees, service charges, delivery, setup — it adds up fast.
Our catering is straightforward. You pick a package, you tell us when you need it, and we have it ready. No per-head pricing, no mandatory minimums, no hidden fees. Here’s what the math actually looks like.
| Package | Price | Feeds | Per Person |
|---|---|---|---|
| Build Your Own Feast (Med) | check current pricing | 4–6 people | check current pricing |
| Build Your Own Feast (Lg) | check current pricing | 5–7 people | check current pricing |
| Pizza and Wing Feast (Med) | check current pricing | 4–6 people | check current pricing |
| Pizza and Wing Feast (Lg) | check current pricing | 5–7 people | check current pricing |
| Pizza Pack (Med) — 4 Mediums | check current pricing | 8–12 people | check current pricing |
| Pizza Pack (Lg) — 4 Larges | check current pricing | 12–16 people | check current pricing |
That’s not the introductory price. That’s the regular price. Full details are on our pricing page.
Best Value Packages
The Large Pizza Pack is the best per-person value we have. Four large 1-topping pizzas at check current pricing — you pick the toppings across all four, so you can build a mix that covers the whole crowd. One pepperoni, one all-meat, one veggie, one chicken — and 12 to 16 people eat well for check current pricing to check current pricing a head.
Stack two Large Packs for a 25–30 person event and you’re at check current pricing for eight large pizzas. Add a side or two and you’re still a competitive price for a 30-person spread. That’s the kind of math that makes event budgets breathe.
The Pizza and Wing Feast (Larges) at check current pricing is the best value if you want wings included — it adds a Large Specialty and a 1-Topping alongside the full wing order. Pair it with a Pizza Pack and you’ve got both pizza variety and wings for a group around 20 for check current pricing.
Budget Tips That Actually Help
A few moves that stretch your catering dollar without cutting corners on the food:
Use the Pizza Pack as your base. Specialty pizzas are great, but 1-topping pizzas with good toppings — All-Meat, pepperoni, sausage — are just as good at a lower per-pie cost. The Pack gets you four large pies for check current pricing vs. check current pricing each for individual specialty larges. If you need specialty variety, add a Feast on top of a Pack rather than ordering all specialty.
Sides add volume cheaply. Garlic Bread (check current pricing) and Potato Wedges (check current pricing) are the lowest-cost additions on the menu. They hold heat well and give guests something to grab while the first round of pizza is being served. Cheesesticks (check current pricing) are the most popular addition and worth the slight premium.
Check our cost comparison page to see how catering from Godfather’s stacks up against buying ingredients and doing it yourself. Spoiler: the DIY math usually doesn’t work out the way people expect.
Our popular picks page can help you decide which specialty pizzas are worth adding to the order. If you’re unsure about variety, those five are where to start.
What to Order on a Budget
The best budget pizzas are 1-topping large pies built around premium toppings — not the cheapest option. Pepperoni is always safe. Sausage is underrated. If you want to get close to the All-Meat Combo without the specialty pizza price, load a 1-topping with pepperoni and add a half-and-half or second pie with sausage. You get the variety without paying specialty prices across the whole order.
The Taco Pie (check current pricing) is the one specialty pizza worth adding even on a budget — it’s the crowd wildcard that gets people talking, and one large feeds about 4–5 adults. Budget one Taco Pie into the order alongside the Packs and it elevates the whole spread without much added cost.
For sides, the Cinnamon Monkey Bread (check current pricing) pulls double duty as a dessert that feels like more than the price tag suggests. Add one or two at the end of the order and the event has a proper finish without a separate dessert budget. The Big Chocolate Chip Cookie (check current pricing, serves six) is also a no-brainer addition for events with kids.
How to Order on a Budget
Start by knowing your headcount. Everything else follows from there. Figure out how many people you’re feeding, divide by the Pack’s 12–16 range, and that tells you how many Packs you need as the base.
Then decide: do you want wings? Do you want specialty variety? Add a Feast if yes. Add sides based on how long the event runs — the longer the event, the more sides you want available so people can graze without cracking into the second round of pizzas early.
For large group orders, call us and we’ll help you figure out the most efficient order for your budget and headcount. There’s no consultation fee — it’s just a phone call.
Pickup saves you delivery time and is the simplest option for most budget catering situations. We’re right off 151 — easy in and out. If you’re doing a big order, pull around to the side entrance and we’ll help you load. Delivery is also available in the area if you’d rather not make the trip.
