Trusted Across the Philadelphia Region

Companies, event planners, and families have trusted The Gourmet Vendor, Inc. for decades to deliver great food and a smooth event experience.

We used The Gourmet Vendor, Inc. for a baseball themed event we held at our office, and I can’t say enough great things about them. The food was delicious, and the staff were professional and so fun to be around. I can’t recommend this vendor enough, and will be adding them to our rotation of preferred vendors.

We used The Gourmet Vendor, Inc. for our holiday party. They were so easy to work with. Quick to communicate, helped us plan what we needed for seamless service to our guests, arrived exactly when they said they would, and packed up without disrupting the party. Not to mention the dogs were delish!
