You’re hosting an important event. Your guests expect quality that matches the community they’re in. That’s exactly what you get with Brendel’s Bagels catering in Matinecock.
We handle everything from the first setup detail to the final cleanup. Your BBQ guests watch our skilled chefs grill premium meats right on-site while you actually enjoy your own event. Corporate breakfast meetings start with our signature kettle-cooked bagels that have the perfect crispy exterior and fluffy interior your colleagues will remember.
The result? Events that run smoothly while you focus on what matters most – your guests, your business, or your celebration. No vendor coordination headaches. No wondering if the food will be ready on time. Just exceptional catering that lets you be present for your own event.
We’ve been serving Long Island’s most discerning communities for years, and we understand what Matinecock residents expect. Quality isn’t negotiable here, and neither is service.
Our four Long Island locations give us the infrastructure to handle everything from intimate corporate meetings to large estate gatherings. We’ve built our reputation on the traditional kettle-cooking method that creates bagels with that signature texture you can’t get anywhere else.
What sets us apart in Matinecock is our understanding of the community. When you’re hosting at your Brookville estate or planning a corporate event at Piping Rock Club, you need caterers who get it. We source locally when possible, prepare everything fresh, and bring the level of professionalism that matches your expectations.
Start with a consultation where we discuss your event, guest count, and preferences. We’re not order-takers – we’re partners who help you think through details you might not have considered.
Next, we create a customized menu that fits your event and budget. Whether you want our famous BBQ service with on-site grilling, traditional breakfast spreads, or Italian specialties, everything is prepared fresh using quality ingredients.
On event day, our team arrives early to handle complete setup. For BBQ events, we bring our own grills, utensils, and gas – then our chefs cook everything fresh while your guests watch. For other catering, we ensure everything is perfectly presented and ready when you need it. After your event, we handle all cleanup so you can focus on your guests, not the logistics.

Our delivery and setup teams are familiar with the gated communities, private estates, and country clubs throughout the area.

For larger events or those requiring extensive setup time, we coordinate arrival schedules to minimize disruption while ensuring everything is perfectly prepared when your guests arrive.
For most events in Matinecock, we recommend booking 2-3 weeks in advance, especially during peak seasons like spring through fall when outdoor entertaining is most popular. Corporate events and smaller gatherings often have more flexibility, but advance booking ensures you get your preferred date and menu options.
Holiday parties, graduation celebrations, and summer estate events should be booked 4-6 weeks ahead since these are our busiest periods. The earlier you book, the more time we have to customize your menu and coordinate any special requirements your venue might have.
If you have a last-minute event, call us anyway. We often can accommodate shorter notice requests, particularly for smaller gatherings or our standard menu offerings. Our multiple locations and established supplier relationships give us flexibility that many other caterers don’t have.

Cleanup is comprehensive – we remove all catering equipment, dispose of waste properly, and leave your space exactly as we found it. For outdoor events on private estates, we’re especially careful to protect landscaping and leave grounds pristine. This full-service approach lets you focus entirely on hosting while we handle all the logistics.
