Private Event Catering
Fun, flexible catering for life’s biggest celebrations
The Gourmet Vendor, Inc. has been part of special events since the very beginning. Some of our first “gigs” were Bar and Bat Mitzvahs, along with Sweet Sixteens and even “record hops” (yes, that dates us!).
We are also a popular choice for wedding rehearsal events, serving cheesesteaks and Philly favorites, as well as post-wedding snacks—where our authentic hot dog carts serve hot dogs and pretzels to guests as they leave.
Since then, we’ve continued to bring fun, energy, and great food to celebrations of all kinds.
Designed Around Your Event
Custom menus and themes to match your vision
With our festive food carts, we can create a variety of menus and work within different themes to add both flavor and a unique visual element to your event.
Whether you have a specific vision or need guidance, we’re happy to work with you to design a custom menu for your special day. We also bring years of experience and ideas to help make what can feel like a stressful event as easy and enjoyable as possible.
A Perfect Addition to Any Celebration
Enhance your event with interactive food stations
Adding carts like a hot dog cart, cotton candy cart, snow cone cart, or ice cream cart alongside a traditional main course can create that extra “WOW” factor your guests will remember.
In addition to providing food and service, we are always happy to work alongside your venue or other caterers to complement your main event plans.
Working with top caterers across the region
The Gourmet Vendor, Inc. works with many venues and top catering companies throughout Philadelphia, Bucks County, Montgomery County, South Jersey, and Central Jersey.
If you’ve attended an event in the area that featured a food cart, there’s a good chance it was The Gourmet Vendor, Inc..
