Cold platter... as opposed to cold cuts platter.
A cold platter is generic including other things than meats (i.e. cuts) the option in this case has olives and cheese too.

charcuterie and cheese platter / plate / board

'cold cuts' has the right meaning, but it sounds a bit like a grocery store.

The link below says that 'cold cuts' means deli meats and thus includes things like turkey, roast beef, etc. that aren't on this menu.

'charcuterie' is the fancy restaurant term for prepared / preserved meats like salamis.

You can find lots of hits using each of platter, plate, and board.

agree Emily Graber : As a native English speaker, this one is definitely a classier option - more like a restaurant and less like something that comes out of a plastic box. Seems more accurate for what you're going for.
