San Francisco catering, cooked to order and delivered across the city.
San Francisco is a city that takes food personally, and event catering here kept arriving lukewarm, over-promised, and under-labeled. We opened in 2013 to fix that. Every menu is cooked the morning of service, loaded for the specific building we are walking into, and delivered directly to your office, studio, or venue across San Francisco and the surrounding Bay Area. We plan for loading docks, freight elevators, elevator holds, and a 15-minute window on a one-way street, so we arrive before the room needs us.
Real kitchen capacity, a local San Francisco team
SF Catering Company caters throughout San Francisco and the surrounding Bay Area communities. We operate under Fresh Pulp Holdings LLC, a group of Bay Area catering brands that together book well over a thousand events a year and have served more than a million guests to date.
What that buys you is unusual: one coordinator who answers their phone, backed by serious commissary capacity, purchasing power, and an equipment inventory a boutique caterer simply cannot carry. A 12-person board lunch in the Financial District on Wednesday and a 250-guest reception in the Presidio on Saturday are both a normal week here — not a stretch.
Grazing Table
Full Service DinnerThe chef who wrote the menu
Jason has spent ten years building this menu at live events instead of in a test kitchen. A dish earns its place only after it survives real service — held hot through a delayed program, plated for two hundred, and still good enough that guests go back for seconds.
That filter is why the list runs from Italian and Mexican to barbecue, Mediterranean, Indian, and American comfort food without feeling padded. Vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free versions are developed alongside the originals — clearly labeled, never an afterthought, which matters in a city where half the room has a preference.
Outdoor Buffet SetupWhat we cater in San Francisco
From a conference room drop-off to a fully staffed waterfront reception, at the same flat delivery rate to every neighborhood we serve:
- • Weddings — plated, buffet, or family-style, with bar service, florals, and rentals from one team
- • Staffed corporate events — galas, all-hands, offsites, conferences, and holiday parties with servers and full breakdown
- • Drop-off trays for offices, studios, film sets, and building-wide lunches
- • Individually boxed meals for trainings, job sites, and large groups, labeled for dietary needs
- • Seasonal and holiday menus — Thanksgiving, Christmas, Lunar New Year, and Easter
