Catering Service Options

4 Ways To Cater Your Event. Choose the service that best fits your special event!

1) Pick Up at Restaurant

Catering orders can be picked up at a specified time between our normal business hours of 4pm to 9 pm during the week and 12pm to 9pm on the weekends. (Based on availability) We will have your food ready in disposable serving pans, hot and ready to go. We offer serving utensils, disposable plates, forks, knives, napkins, toothpicks & moist towelettes upon request. If your order is large enough a pick up can possibly be arranged during other hours.  Company outings etc.

 

2) Delivery and Setup 

We set it up, you take care of the rest.  Our experienced driver will deliver the food to you in ready-to-serve aluminum pans.  We will set up all of the food and paper products where you would like, ready to be eaten.

We don't really recommend this service for orders much larger than 50 people without having several people your end to ready man the buffet. It's a lot of food and starts to require manpower maintaining the food on the buffet.

Then we set-up and maintain the buffet line keeping it freshly stocked during the designated serving time, and clean up of the buffet area.

Once all of your guests are full and happy, we will replenish the buffet with any remaining food and leave the buffet for you and your party to enjoy for hours after we leave.

Travel Fees

Travel time is figured using Google maps from our location to yours. 20 minutes of travel time (round trip) is included in the delivery or catering fee. Anything over 20 minutes will be billed at $1 dollar per minute for the round trip travel time exceeding 20 minutes. For instance, if you live 20 minutes away you would pay a $20 dollar travel fee. (40 minutes round trip minus 20 minutes of included travel leaves 20 minutes x $1.00 per.= $20)

FAQ

• Can I pick up my order?

Orders can be picked up at the restaurant during normal business hours or if your order is large enough a pick up can possibly be arranged during other hours.  Company outings etc.

 

• What is your delivery area?

 We deliver and do on-site catering throughout most of New England. Extra travel fees may apply.

 

• How is my order packaged for pick up or delivery?

 Most orders are packaged into 10’ x 12’ aluminum catering pans with sealed lids & plastic pint and quart containers.

 If chafing racks are not to be used. Larger orders of meats and sides may come packaged in full size 12” x 24” inch pans instead of multiple 10” x 12”. Food picked up is hot, cut up and ready to eat unless otherwise specified.

 

 How long will my food stay hot?

Unopened pans will stay hot for an hour or more. If you will be experiencing extended travel times or delays prior to eating, then we suggest bringing in large coolers to pack your food in.  Coolers can keep food as hot, as well as, they can keep items cold.

- We recommend chafing racks for extended serving times of longer than 45 minutes. If everybody will be eating at the same time we don’t recommend the added expense. Chafing dishes do not work as well on hard food items such as ribs and chicken as they do on wet items such as beans. Keeping a cover over the food whenever possible will help retain heat and keep your food hot longer.

- If desired, chafing racks with canned fuel are available at an additional cost of $15.00 per unit.  This includes a wire frame, water pan, cover and canned heat. Quantities needed will vary.

- We recommend food be eaten A.S.A.P. after delivery to guarantee optimum quality.

- Do I need to put down a deposit? How and when do I pay?

All orders do require a deposit to book and confirm your event. Balance must be paid in full 3 days prior to event.
