Publix Deli Platters Priced Size by Size
Publix deli platters of cold cuts or cheese start at $15.99 for a mini tray that serves about 4, and the biggest meat platters top out at $74.99 for about 28 people.
Those prices come from the platter builders on publix.com for Publix’s Southgate Shopping Center store in Lakeland, Florida (#1270), checked on October 22, 2026. Other stores can charge more or less.
Most platters need 24 hours’ notice, and none of the cold cut trays come with bread.
Cold cut platters by size
Publix’s meat and cheese platters page lists 15 trays for the Lakeland store, eight from Boar’s Head and seven under the Publix Deli name. The sliced meat platters come in three sizes, for about 10, 18 or 28 people.
| Meat platter | Small, 10 | Medium, 18 | Large, 28 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Publix All American | $29.99 | $39.99 | $54.99 |
| Publix Connoisseur’s Choice | $31.99 | $44.99 | $64.99 |
| Boar’s Head All American | $34.99 | $47.99 | $65.99 |
| Boar’s Head Connoisseurs Choice | $34.99 | $54.99 | $74.99 |
| Boar’s Head Terrific Quintet | $39.99 | $59.99 | $74.99 |
| Boar’s Head Italian Virtuoso | $39.99 | $59.99 | $74.99 |
| Boar’s Head Turkey Carousel | $39.99 | $59.99 | $74.99 |
Prices vary by store. The All American trays pair turkey and ham with American and Swiss cheese, and the Connoisseur’s Choice trays carry roast beef, tavern ham and turkey with no cheese.
The three Boar’s Head specialty trays share one price at every size. The Terrific Quintet adds Boar’s Head roast beef to OvenGold turkey, maple honey ham and two cheeses, the Italian Virtuoso stacks ham, mortadella, capicola, Genoa salami and provolone around deli mustard, and the Turkey Carousel holds four kinds of turkey.
What the Boar’s Head name adds
Four of the trays come in both a Publix Deli and a Boar’s Head version with the same meats or cheeses, so the gap between them is the price of the brand.
On the All American tray the gap grows from $5 at the small size to $8 at the medium and $11 at the large, and on the Connoisseur’s Choice it runs from $3 to $10.
For a big party we’d order the Publix Deli version. A large Publix All American tray feeds about 28 people for $54.99, roughly $1.96 each, and the Boar’s Head one costs $11 more for the same lineup of turkey, ham, American and Swiss.
Cheese trays and Nibbler cubes
The Nibbler platter is the one most likely to suit a small get-together, because it starts with a mini size for about 4. It mixes cubes of turkey, tavern ham and Genoa salami with cheddar, pepper jack and Gouda, garnished with red grapes.
- Publix Deli Nibbler, $15.99, $25.99, $42.99 or $54.99 for about 4, 10, 18 or 28
- Boar’s Head Nibbler, $17.99, $29.99, $49.99 or $64.99 for the same four sizes
- Boar’s Head Cheese Taster, eight cheeses from smoked Gruyere to Havarti, $17.99, $32.99, $45.99 or $72.99
- Boar’s Head Cheese Classic, sliced Vermont cheddar, Swiss, Muenster and pepper jack, $27.99, $33.99 or $45.99 for about 10, 18 or 28
Two cheese platters lean on fruit. The Jeweled Brie platter glazes French brie with peach preserves and honey, tops it with almonds and cranberries and sets it among grapes, strawberries and apples, at $19.99 for about 4 or $49.99 for about 18.
The Fresh Fruit and Cheese platter pairs seasonal fruit with brie, cheddar, Manchego and blue cheese for $44.99 or $79.99. Without the cheese, a fruit platter for about 18 is $32.99, and we’ve priced the fruit and vegetable trays by the pound.
The Entertainer platter is all croissants
The Publix Deli Entertainer Platter is a tray of mini croissants filled with ham, egg, tuna and chunky chicken salads and royal pimento cheese. Publix lists them at 120 to 170 calories a croissant.
At $48.99 for about 28, the large Entertainer works out to about $1.75 a guest, less than any large meat platter. It’s a ready-made sandwich tray, too, while the cold cut platters still need bread.
Boar’s Head’s Classic Slider Trio puts the meats on sweet rolls instead, as turkey with fontina, ham with Swiss and roast beef with cheddar. It costs $19.99, $36.99, $55.99 or $75.99 for about 4, 10, 18 or 28.
Bread, sauces and the rest of the spread
The meat trays come with free mayonnaise and mustard packets if you tick the boxes in the builder, but no rolls. A dozen dinner rolls from the bakery is $3.99 at the Lakeland store, so a large tray for 28 needs about three dozen, $11.97 more.
The deli’s platters page lists 154 items in all. For dips, a small variety platter is $19.99 for about 10 and the medium bread bowl platter $24.99 for about 18, and Boar’s Head prosciutto skewers with mozzarella and tomato start at $17.99.
Fruit, vegetable and fried chicken platters are on the same page, and our Publix catering price guide has their sizes and what each one costs per guest, while sub and wrap platters get their own look at Publix sub platters. The hot chicken boxes, kids’ roll-ups and dessert platters are in our guide to Publix party platters.
Order by noon for next day pickup
Each tray lists “24 Hours Advance Notice Required,” and Publix’s platter FAQ adds a cutoff that matters for next-day parties.
Order some platters before noon and you can pick them up any time the next day. Order after noon and the earliest pickup moves to the following afternoon. For a sooner pickup, the builder says to call your Publix store, and a platter can be canceled up to 24 hours before its pickup time.
The same FAQ notes that platters with fried chicken, like tenders and wings, are served chilled.
Holidays need the same planning. A platter for Christmas Eve has to be ordered by Wednesday, December 23, and our Publix Christmas hours guide has the rest of that week.
