A buffet is a system of serving meals in which food is placed in a public area where the diners serve themselves.
Informal or formal buffet services are a great way to feed any number of guests at your event. We also have a number of unique services that fall under this category. Food stations (interactive), Harvest tables, Grazing stations and Family style service are all one of a kind menu options for buffet style service.

As always we are more then happy to put together a customized menu for your event and budget.
