About Boston
Catering & Events

From the boardroom to your backyard and beyond — we’ve got you covered.

We know that the food you serve at your meeting or event has a big job to do. It’s about more than just filling people up. Food helps you welcome, support, connect, and celebrate.

We create menus that meet the moment and experiences that make an impact.

Since 1992, when David Briggs became the new owner, we have grown from a small company specializing in barbecues and clambakes to a full-service catering company trusted by the region’s most prominent venues.

We’ve put food on planes, trains, and boats and served guests at museums, in historic estates, on rooftops, and at unique venues across Massachusetts.

No matter the occasion, we don’t just make it work—we make it wow.

Creativity and collaboration are cornerstones of our approach. Our culinary team’s diverse influences enable us to develop authentic global cuisine and craft custom menus tailored to you. From scratch-baked desserts to homemade dressings to expertly grilled meats and seafood, every dish is thoughtfully prepared and beautifully presented.

Beyond the flavors and fun, we take service seriously. With over three decades of experience and established industry relationships, we're well-equipped to adapt to any challenge. Whether hand-delivering your order, coordinating rentals, or serving guests at a chef-active station, we go above and beyond to ensure you and your guests feel well taken care of.

Prepare to relax and enjoy your gathering, knowing that every detail is in our capable hands.
