Your Event Runs Smoothly, Your Guests Leave Happy

You’re not just getting food delivered in aluminum trays. You’re getting fresh bagels kettle-cooked the traditional way, premium Boar’s Head cold cuts prepared by-the-foot, and BBQ grilled on-site by our professional staff.

Your guests notice the difference when food is made-to-order instead of sitting under heat lamps. They see the care in our artful presentations and taste the quality in every bite.

While other caterers drop off lukewarm food and disappear, we handle setup, serving, and cleanup. You focus on your guests, not logistics.

How far in advance should I book catering for my Port Jefferson Station event?

We recommend booking at least one week in advance for most events, though we can often accommodate shorter notice depending on our schedule and your event size. For larger corporate events or weekend celebrations, two weeks notice ensures we have everything you need.

Peak seasons like holidays, graduation time, and summer wedding season fill up faster. If you have a specific date in mind, calling early gives you the best selection of menu options and ensures we can provide any additional services like tables, chairs, or wait staff.

For urgent same-day or next-day catering needs, call our hotline directly. We’ll do everything possible to accommodate your timeline while maintaining our quality standards.

Our BBQ catering is comprehensive – we bring everything needed for a complete outdoor feast. This includes the grill, all cooking equipment, professional staff to handle the grilling, and full setup and cleanup service.

Food-wise, you get fall-off-the-bone ribs, juicy grilled chicken, hamburgers, cheeseburgers, hot dogs, and corn on the cob. We also provide freshly made salads including potato salad, macaroni salad, and coleslaw, plus all the buns, condiments, pickles, and fixings.

If you want additional services, we can provide tables, chairs, tents for weather protection, and professional wait staff to ensure your guests are taken care of. You literally just show up and enjoy your event while we handle everything else.

Absolutely. Every catering menu is customized to your specific needs and guest requirements. We regularly accommodate vegetarian, gluten-sensitive, and other dietary preferences without compromising on taste or presentation.

For our hero sandwiches, you choose the bread, cheeses, meats, and toppings. We can create specialty combinations or stick with traditional favorites using premium Boar’s Head cold cuts. Our salad options include lighter fare for health-conscious guests alongside heartier options.

We also work with you on portion sizes, presentation style, and timing. Whether you need individually wrapped items for a corporate meeting or family-style platters for a casual gathering, we adapt our service to match your event’s style and your guests’ needs.

Our catering pricing is straightforward and based on your menu selections, guest count, and any additional services you need. We provide detailed quotes upfront so there are no surprises on event day.

Basic catering packages start with food only, but most clients add our setup and cleanup service for the convenience. Additional services like tables, chairs, linens, wait staff, and equipment rental are priced separately and clearly itemized in your quote.

We work within your budget to create the best possible experience. Sometimes that means adjusting portion sizes or menu items, other times it means focusing spending on the items that matter most to your specific event. Call us with your budget range and event details for an accurate quote.

The biggest difference is freshness. While most caterers prepare food hours or even days in advance, we make everything to order. For many events, we’re actually preparing your food on-site or right before delivery to ensure maximum quality.

Our bagels are kettle-cooked using traditional methods – you can taste the difference in that perfect chewy interior and crispy exterior. We use premium ingredients like Boar’s Head cold cuts and locally sourced produce whenever possible.

Beyond food quality, we provide complete event support. Other caterers drop off food and leave. We handle setup, provide professional staff if needed, and take care of cleanup. You’re not coordinating multiple vendors or dealing with logistics – you’re focusing on your guests while we handle everything else.

Yes, we cater events of all sizes throughout Port Jefferson Station and Suffolk County. Small office meetings for 10 people get the same attention to quality and service as large corporate events or family celebrations for 100+ guests.

For smaller events, we often focus on premium sandwich platters, fresh salads, and our signature bagel spreads. Larger events might include our full BBQ service with on-site grilling, multiple menu stations, and professional wait staff to ensure smooth service.
