Professional Catering Services Garden City Park
When you need catering services in Garden City Park, you’re not just buying food. You’re buying peace of mind that everything will work exactly as planned.
We show up when we say we will, with the right amount of fresh food, proper serving equipment, and staff who know what they’re doing. Your breakfast meeting starts on time with hot coffee and warm bagels. Your office lunch gets set up without you lifting a finger.
The difference? We’ve been doing this in Nassau County long enough to know what can go wrong – and how to prevent it. You get reliable catering services that make you look good to your guests, whether it’s 10 people or 200.
Nassau County Catering Company
Brendels Bagels has been serving Nassau County for years, starting as a neighborhood bagel shop and growing into a trusted catering company. We still make bagels the old-school way – kettle-cooked for that perfect chewy texture Long Islanders expect.
Multiple locations across Long Island mean we understand local preferences. Garden City Park corporate clients know they can count on us for morning meetings that start exactly on time. Families choose us for celebrations because we handle the details they don’t want to worry about.
What makes us different from other catering companies? Simple. We care about food quality as much as you do, and we show up prepared to handle whatever your event needs.
How Our Catering Process Works
First, we talk through your event needs. Guest count, timing, dietary restrictions, budget. We recommend catering options that fit your situation, whether it’s continental breakfast for 15 or full BBQ catering for your company picnic.
On event day, we arrive with everything needed. Serving equipment, professional staff, and fresh food prepared that morning. For BBQ catering, we literally bring the grill and handle all the cooking. You focus on your guests while we manage food service.
After your event, we clean up the serving area and pack everything out. No leftover mess, no dishes to return. Your guests leave satisfied, and you’re done with the food responsibilities.

Garden City Park Catering Menu Options
Our catering services cover everything from early morning corporate breakfasts to evening celebrations. Signature kettle-cooked bagels anchor our breakfast catering, along with muffins, croissants, and hot breakfast buffets with eggs and bacon.
Lunch catering features fresh sandwiches, salads, and hot entrees that work for Garden City Park office buildings and outdoor events. Italian catering brings authentic pasta dishes and chicken specialties that satisfy larger groups.
BBQ catering is where we really stand out in Nassau County. We bring everything – professional grill, experienced staff, premium meats, and all the sides. Popular for summer corporate events and family gatherings where you want restaurant-quality grilling without any of the work. We handle the cooking while you enjoy your guests.
How much advance notice do you need for catering in Garden City Park?
Two weeks gives us time to plan properly and source the best ingredients for your event. Most breakfast and lunch catering can be arranged with less notice if our schedule allows.
BBQ catering and larger events need more lead time since we’re coordinating equipment and additional staff. Garden City Park corporate clients often book monthly breakfast meetings in advance to secure their preferred dates.
Holiday seasons and graduation periods book up quickly in Nassau County. If you have regular catering needs, booking a month ahead ensures availability. Last-minute requests aren’t impossible – call and we’ll check our schedule.
What's your catering pricing for Nassau County events?
Pricing varies by menu selection, guest count, and service level required. Breakfast catering typically costs less than lunch or dinner options. BBQ catering runs higher because we’re bringing equipment and doing on-site cooking.
Every quote includes setup, service, and cleanup with no hidden fees. You’ll know exactly what you’re paying before we arrive. No surprise charges for serving utensils or basic cleanup that should be included anyway.
Corporate clients and repeat customers often qualify for volume discounts. We work with Garden City Park businesses to find catering solutions that fit their budgets while maintaining the food quality that makes events successful.
Can you handle dietary restrictions and special requests?
Most dietary needs can be accommodated with advance notice. Gluten-free, vegetarian, and dairy-free options are available for our standard catering menus. We discuss specific requirements during planning to ensure proper preparation.
For severe allergies, we review our kitchen procedures to prevent cross-contamination. Corporate events especially need careful attention to employee dietary restrictions and food safety concerns.
Custom requests like specific sandwich combinations or particular appetizer selections usually work within our catering services. We’re local to Garden City Park and want your event to succeed, so reasonable modifications that maintain food quality are typically possible.
Do you provide serving equipment and staff for events?
All serving equipment comes with your catering order – warming trays, serving utensils, plates, napkins, and cups. BBQ catering includes the grill, cooking tools, and everything needed for outdoor service at your Garden City Park location.
Professional serving staff is included for larger events and always provided for BBQ catering. We maintain proper food temperatures, manage serving lines efficiently, and answer guest questions about ingredients or preparation.
Smaller office orders can be set up for self-service if you prefer. Either way, we provide clear setup instructions and ensure you have everything needed for smooth food service throughout your event.
What areas do you serve for catering delivery?
All of Nassau County is within our standard catering service area. Garden City Park, Stewart Manor, Mineola, and surrounding communities get regular delivery with no additional fees for standard orders.
Extended Long Island locations can usually be accommodated with advance planning. Corporate clients with multiple locations often use our catering services across Nassau and western Suffolk counties for consistency.
Delivery fees may apply beyond our standard area, but we discuss all costs upfront in your quote. Our goal is bringing quality catering to your location, whether it’s a Garden City Park office building or a backyard celebration.
How do you ensure food freshness and quality?
We kettle-cook our bagels fresh daily using traditional methods that create the texture and flavor people expect from authentic New York bagels. We don’t rush the process because proper preparation time makes the difference.
Ingredients are sourced locally when possible and prepared close to your event time. Hot foods travel in warming equipment and are served at proper temperatures. Cold items like salads stay refrigerated until service begins.
We monitor food quality throughout your event. If anything doesn’t meet our standards, we replace it immediately. After years of serving Garden City Park events, our reputation depends on consistent quality and food safety at every catering job.
