Many clients also pair our Christmas menu with seasonal extras found on our Thanksgiving catering menu NYC or extend the theme into the New Year by blending winter-inspired salads, seafood platters, and elegant hors d’oeuvres.

For Offices, Families, and Community Celebrations

Our Christmas catering is formatted for flexibility. From tray setups for a Midtown office party to individual meal boxes for community events, we deliver in formats that match your gathering’s needs. All orders arrive fresh, labeled for dietary clarity, and packaged in compostable containers for minimal cleanup.

Office clients appreciate our staggered delivery options and easy buffet setups. Families love the flavor and presentation of our plated options, especially when paired with festive drink service. And for churches and nonprofits, we offer value-conscious spreads that still bring warmth, flavor, and visual appeal to the table.

Inclusive Holiday Meals

No guest should feel like an afterthought. Our menus include vegetarian mains, dairy-free sides, and gluten-free options prepared with the same care as our signature dishes. We also provide guidance for allergy accommodations, ensuring every person at your table feels welcome and well-fed.

This inclusive approach is woven throughout our seasonal offerings, like our Good Friday catering menu NYC, where thoughtful design meets dietary mindfulness—something we carry into every holiday menu.
