Need food/snack ideas for an event with 100 people (self.frugal)

I'm hosting a networking event, and I managed to snag a free venue that fits all of us. Problem is, it's not a bar. No food or water provided.

My budget is honestly as close to nothing as I can get it, but I also want to provide something to people.

For water, my only idea is to get bottles od water. A water cooler would be nice, but those are expensive.

It'd be nice to have snacks too. I could just get bags of chips, maybe cookies, but I don't know how much I need to cover ~100 people. If anyone has ideas or experience, please let me know :)

As for water, you can get giant 50 or 100L bottles that can be set up as dispensers. For food I would suggest buying some kind of jumbo pack of things like a cookie sampler or pretzels from Costco.
