I'd say bagels for a 10 am party
The parties I have gone to at that time, they had the bagels out for the parents as soon as we arrived...so we could eat those while the kids did their thing.

Then the kid's pizza came out later on

I don't think parents will be given food until the kiddos are at our place.

Oh ok.
Well in that case you could really go either way. If it's 1130 they can have pizza too with the kids

I work at a place that does kids parties and the most recent one I did adults were wandering around outside looking for other food options because they didn't want pizza. I felt so bad for the mom, she ordered five pies and went home w two. It was so bizarre to me that none of the adults wanted pizza.

At a party I took my son to, all the adults ate pizza. I guess it's just what your crowd would prefer?

Omg that is ridiculous. Who doesn't eat pizza? And if you are that picky wait till the party ends and go get food. You won't die of starvation at a 2 hr kids party .
People are weird!

That's so strange!

I voted pizza. I don't know anyone who doesn't like pizza.

Pizza. It's easier to eat than bagels. As a mom of 2, I usually can barely eat, let alone find a hand to butter a bagel!

If it's a kids party and the kids are getting pizza, get the parents pizza, too. It's early enough that if the parents don't want to eat the pizza they can eat their own food when they go home.

Pizza for everyone. I went to a kids party a few months ago where they served pizza for the kids and had extra pies on the side for the adults. Everyone ate and enjoyed it.

Personally, I wouldn't do bagels only because I don't want to bother standing there buttering or cream cheesing my bagel while I'm trying to socialize or keep and eye on my child. I'd rather just grab a slice and get back to what I'm doing.

Pizza!

I don't have kids, but there is no way I could eat a bagel with the smell of pizza wafting through the air. Chat Icon
