We could have setup lunch in the other part of the room, some sort of buffet.

This is what we do when we host evening talks:
We order enough pizzas for everyone and we open the boxes
progressively until we run out of them. I can try to get us beers too.

Otherwise there are plenty of restaurants around, so people should be
able to find something for lunch, but only a few could recv the whole
venue.

Water/coffee is not an issue ;-)
