Hear from Our Customers
Your guests won’t just eat—they’ll experience something special. Fresh bagels with that perfect chewy interior and crispy exterior that only comes from traditional kettle-cooking. BBQ that’s grilled on-site by our team while you mingle. Italian dishes prepared with locally sourced ingredients that taste like they came from your favorite family restaurant.
The difference isn’t just the food. It’s watching your event run smoothly while you actually get to be part of it. No running to the kitchen, no coordinating vendors, no cleanup afterward. Just the satisfaction of knowing your guests are talking about this meal weeks later.
Brendels Bagels has been serving Long Island communities for years, and Terryville residents know they can count on us for events that matter. We’re not just the bagel place—we’re the catering company that brings grills, staff, and everything needed directly to your location.
What sets us apart in Terryville is our understanding of this community. We know you value quality, reliability, and getting real value for your investment. That’s why we source locally when possible and maintain the traditional cooking methods that create food worth talking about.
First, you call us and tell us about your event. We discuss your guest count, preferences, and any special requirements. No pressure, just questions that help us understand what you need.
Next, we create a custom menu proposal based on your conversation. Whether it’s breakfast bagels for a morning meeting, Italian catering for a family celebration, or full BBQ service for a backyard party, we match the food to your occasion.
On event day, our team arrives with everything—food, equipment, serving materials, even the cleanup supplies. For BBQ events, we bring the grills and handle all the cooking on-site. You focus on your guests while we focus on making sure every detail is handled professionally.

Our catering menu covers everything from light continental breakfasts to full dinner spreads. Signature kettle-cooked bagels with house-made cream cheeses for morning events. Italian specialties that bring authentic flavors to celebrations. BBQ catering where we grill everything fresh on-site—ribs, chicken, burgers, and all the sides.
For Terryville events, we understand the local preference for quality and value. Our packages include professional setup, attentive service throughout your event, and complete cleanup afterward. Many clients in the area appreciate that we handle vendor coordination so they don’t have to manage multiple suppliers.
We also provide all serving equipment, utensils, and even tables and chairs when needed. It’s genuinely full-service catering designed to eliminate the stress from your event planning.
For most events, two weeks notice gives us enough time to properly prepare and ensure availability. However, we understand that some occasions come up quickly, and we’ll do our best to accommodate shorter notice when possible.
Larger events or those during busy seasons (graduation parties, holiday celebrations) benefit from booking 3-4 weeks ahead. This ensures you get your preferred date and gives us time to source the freshest ingredients. Corporate events and weddings especially benefit from early planning since we can coordinate all the details that make these occasions memorable.
Yes, we bring everything needed for your event. This includes serving platters, utensils, napkins, and basic serving equipment. For BBQ catering, we bring our grills, gas, cooking tools, and all the equipment needed to prepare your meal on-site.
We also handle complete setup and breakdown, so you don’t need to worry about preparation or cleanup. Many of our Terryville clients appreciate this full-service approach because it means they can focus entirely on their guests. If you need additional items like tables, chairs, or tents, we can coordinate those rentals as well.
Our BBQ catering is genuinely full-service. We bring our grills, all cooking equipment, and professional grill masters who handle the cooking on-site. This means your food is prepared fresh during your event, not reheated from somewhere else.
The service includes setup, cooking, serving, and cleanup. We provide all the traditional BBQ favorites—ribs, grilled chicken, burgers, hot dogs—plus sides and sauces. Everything is prepared with high-quality ingredients, and our team stays throughout your event to ensure the food is served at the perfect temperature. It’s like having your own private BBQ restaurant come to your location.
Absolutely. We work with you to create menus that accommodate your guests’ dietary needs, including vegetarian, gluten-free, and other special requirements. Our kitchen is experienced in preparing food safely for people with allergies and dietary restrictions.
We also customize menus based on your event style and preferences. If you want a mix of our signature bagels with Italian specialties, or BBQ with some lighter options, we create combinations that work for your specific gathering. The key is discussing these needs when we plan your menu so we can prepare properly and ensure everyone at your event has delicious options.
Food quality starts with our sourcing—we use fresh, often locally sourced ingredients and prepare everything to order for your event. Our bagels are made using traditional kettle-cooking methods that create the texture and flavor we’re known for across Long Island.
For hot foods, we prepare items as close to service time as possible. With BBQ catering, everything is cooked fresh on-site during your event. For other catering, we use proper food safety protocols and temperature control to ensure everything arrives and stays fresh throughout your event. Our experienced staff monitors food quality continuously during service.
We provide catering services throughout Suffolk County, including all areas around Terryville like Port Jefferson Station, Coram, Selden, and the broader Long Island region. Our multiple locations allow us to serve events efficiently across this area.
Distance isn’t usually an issue for most events in Suffolk County. We factor delivery and setup time into our planning so everything arrives on schedule. For locations further from our standard service area, we can discuss logistics during your consultation to ensure we can provide the same quality service you’d expect at a local venue.
