Buffet and Station Menus | Stock and Ladle Food Company

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.
