Yaphank Catering Company
We’ve been serving Yaphank and the surrounding Suffolk County area for years, building our reputation one event at a time. What started as Long Island’s favorite bagel shop has grown into a full-service catering company that locals trust for their most important occasions.
Our kettle-cooked bagels still bring people through our doors every morning. But it’s our comprehensive catering services – from breakfast meetings to backyard BBQs to formal Italian dinners – that keep families and businesses coming back when they need to impress.
Four locations across Long Island means we understand what local tastes expect. Fresh ingredients, many sourced locally, prepared with the traditional methods that have made us Suffolk County’s go-to choice for quality food.
Catering Process Yaphank NY
First, we talk through your event details – guest count, dietary preferences, venue, and timing. No generic packages here; we customize every menu to fit your specific needs and budget.
Next, we handle all the preparation using fresh, quality ingredients. For BBQ events, we bring the grills, utensils, and staff directly to your location. For breakfast or lunch catering, everything arrives ready to serve at the perfect temperature.
On event day, our team arrives early for setup. We manage the cooking, serving, and cleanup so you can focus on your guests. You get professional service that makes you look good, without any of the behind-the-scenes stress.

Catering Menu Options Yaphank
Yes, our kettle-cooked bagels are still the foundation – crispy outside, fluffy inside, made fresh daily. But our catering menu goes far beyond breakfast. Italian catering features authentic recipes prepared with traditional methods. BBQ catering includes fall-off-the-bone ribs and juicy grilled chicken, with our grillmasters cooking on-site at your venue.
Breakfast options range from light continental spreads with fresh pastries and yogurt parfaits to hearty platters with our signature bagels and house-made cream cheeses. Lunch and dinner menus include gourmet sandwiches, fresh salads, and formal hors d’oeuvres that work for corporate events or private celebrations.
Long Island events demand variety, and we deliver. Custom menu planning means you get exactly what your guests expect, whether that’s comfort food for a backyard gathering or elegant passed appetizers for a formal affair.
How far in advance should I book catering services?
We recommend booking at least two weeks in advance for most events, though we can often accommodate shorter notice depending on our schedule and your menu requirements. Larger events or specialty services like our on-site BBQ catering typically need three to four weeks advance notice.
Holiday periods and popular event seasons (spring and summer) fill up quickly, so earlier booking ensures you get your preferred date. When you call, we’ll discuss your timeline and let you know exactly what’s possible for your specific event date.
Do you provide setup and cleanup for catering events?
Absolutely. Full-service means full-service. Our team arrives early to handle all setup, including tables, serving stations, and equipment. For BBQ catering, we bring and set up the grills, gas, utensils, and serving areas at your location.
During your event, we manage the food service and keep everything running smoothly. After your guests are satisfied, we handle complete cleanup and removal of all equipment and supplies. You focus on hosting; we handle everything else.
What areas do you serve for catering delivery?
We serve Yaphank and the broader Suffolk County area from our four Long Island locations. This includes nearby communities like Medford, Holbrook, Centereach, and surrounding towns within a reasonable delivery radius.
Delivery fees may apply based on distance and event size, which we’ll discuss during menu planning. For our specialty BBQ catering where we cook on-site, we travel throughout Suffolk County to bring the full experience directly to your venue, whether that’s your backyard, a park, or a rented facility.
Can you accommodate dietary restrictions and special requests?
Yes, we work with dietary restrictions and special requests as part of our custom menu planning. Whether you need vegetarian options, gluten-conscious choices, or specific ingredient modifications, we’ll discuss what’s possible during your consultation.
Our fresh preparation approach means we can often modify dishes to meet specific needs. We’ll be upfront about what we can and can’t accommodate, and suggest alternatives that work for your guests while maintaining the quality and taste you expect from our catering.
What's included in your BBQ catering service?
Our BBQ catering is truly full-service. We bring the grills, gas, all cooking utensils, serving equipment, and our experienced grillmasters to your location. The menu includes traditional favorites like fall-off-the-bone ribs, juicy grilled chicken, burgers, and hot dogs, all prepared with fresh, quality ingredients.
We handle complete setup at your venue, cook everything fresh on-site, and manage serving throughout your event. After your guests are satisfied, we clean up everything including the grills and remove all equipment. You get restaurant-quality BBQ without any of the work or cleanup.
