You know the drill. You plan an event, hire a caterer, cross your fingers, and hope everything goes smoothly. Half the time, you’re still running around fixing problems instead of enjoying your guests.
Here’s what happens when you choose catering that actually works. Your food arrives fresh and on time. The setup happens without you lifting a finger. Your guests rave about the quality. And you get to be a guest at your own event.
No scrambling. No settling for lukewarm food that’s been sitting around. Just professional service that handles everything from the first bagel to the final cleanup.
Brendel’s Bagels has been a favorite stop for bagel lovers across Long Island, serving the freshest homemade bagels, bialys, flagels, and cream cheeses in the Nassau County area. But we offer much more than exceptional bagels.
Whether it’s your backyard, a beach, a public venue, or any other area, our grillmasters will set up your very own private BBQ and will man the grill for you. No need to stand behind a hot barbecue or miss out on your event; when you hire us, we’ll take care of all the setup, cooking, and cleanup so you can mix and mingle with your guests.
For Sands Point residents who value quality and reliability, this level of comprehensive service makes all the difference between a stressful event and one you’ll actually remember enjoying.
Start with a conversation about your event. What type of gathering? How many guests? Any dietary preferences or special requests? We’ll work with you to custom-craft a catering menu that will be sure to WOW every palate at your party or event.
Next comes the preparation. We use the freshest ingredients (many of which are locally sourced) and freshly prepare all dishes for you. When we say fresh, we mean fresh. No reheated food or shortcuts.
On event day, our team arrives with everything needed. Grills, gas, utensils, sauces, and of course, the food; we bring the BBQ directly to you. We handle setup, cooking, and service while you focus on your guests. After everyone’s satisfied, we clean everything up and pack out our equipment.

Book your catering at least 2-3 weeks in advance for most events, though larger gatherings or peak seasons may require more notice. This gives you time to finalize menu details, guest count, and any special accommodations.
For last-minute events, call anyway. We often accommodate shorter notice requests depending on our schedule and your event size. The key is communicating your needs clearly – event type, guest count, preferred menu style, and any dietary restrictions.
Early booking also means better menu customization options and ensures you get your preferred date locked in, especially during busy seasons like graduation time or holidays.
Grills, gas, utensils, sauces, and of course, the food – we bring the BBQ directly to you. Whether it’s your backyard, a beach, a public venue, or any other area, our grillmasters will set up your very own private BBQ and will man the grill for you.

Absolutely. We’ll work with you to custom-craft a catering menu that will be sure to WOW every palate at your party or event. This includes accommodating common dietary needs like vegetarian, gluten-free, or allergy-specific requirements.
The key is discussing these needs during your initial consultation. Our experienced team can suggest menu modifications or alternative options that fit within your event’s theme and budget. We use the freshest ingredients (many of which are locally sourced), making it easier to control ingredients and preparation methods.
Whether you need kosher options, dairy-free alternatives, or specific preparation requirements, clear communication upfront ensures everyone at your event can enjoy the meal without worry.
Whether you’re hosting an early- or mid-morning business meeting, a corporate event, or a private party, with our breakfast catering services, you’ll be sure to start everyone’s day off on the right foot. Corporate meetings, networking events, and morning celebrations are natural fits.
But breakfast catering also works beautifully for weekend brunches, graduation parties, baby showers, or any gathering where you want fresh, quality food without the morning prep stress. Brendel’s Bagels is regarded as the premier bagel shop in the Nassau County area, so it makes sense that our breakfast catering is top-notch, too.

When Brendel’s Bagels is on the job, you can be sure that you’ll receive the most delectable food, impeccable service, and affordable prices, too. Pricing depends on several factors: guest count, menu selection, service level, and event duration.
Basic delivery and setup costs less than full-service options with on-site cooking and cleanup. BBQ catering with grillmasters costs more than continental breakfast delivery, but you’re paying for the complete experience and professional service.
