Get cocktail bites actually designed to be eaten standing up while holding a drink. No forks or knives, no balancing acts, and zero dropped glassware.

No-Fuss Setup

No kitchen at your venue? No problem.

We bring portable equipment that works for your space so we can serve up piping hot food without filing an insurance claim.

Everyone Gets Fed

We prep an extra 10% of each menu item at our own expense. The trays stay full, guests stay fed, and you never have to scramble for emergency delivery pizza.

Frequently Asked Questions

Just a few common questions our clients have about booking caterings in Toronto.

We specialize in “eatable” food – dishes you can eat without asking ChatGPT. While our menus often feature Southeast Asian flavours, we’ve delivered custom experiences for unique events:

  • Ukrainian-style borscht with cured pork lard and buttered borodinsky bread for Sean Penn’s TIFF premiere wrap party for Black Sunflowers
  • Live oyster shucking for a Snapchat dating event
  • Malaysian-style “Rice Table” multi-course feast to celebrate a special birthday

Tell us the vibe of your room, and we’ll write a menu that fits.

Absolutely zero venue kitchen infrastructure required. Since we prep everything in our certified commissary, almost no cooking happens on-site. No open flames, and no commercial hoods needed (although ventilation is preferred for our clients’ sakes). We execute full-service caterings out of closet-sized kitchenettes, raw industrial lofts, and creative studios without setting off alarms.

We prep and pack an additional 10% on top of your final guest count at our own expense. So even if Kevin eats three times as many satay skewers as his co-workers, there’s still plenty to go around.

We offer options with different price ranges, depending on what you’re looking for:

  • Corporate Day Drops & Receptions: Structured packages from $32 – $52 per guest.
  • Studio Activations & Evening Buyouts: Event minimums typically start at $2,500 – $3,500.
  • Private seated dinners at $85 – $175+ per guest.

Every proposal provides itemized pricing with quoted rates locked for 14 days.

Tell us your target date, estimated guest count, and location via our intake form. Our team follows up with an itemized ballpark breakdown. From there, we can schedule a quick 10-minute walkthrough, arrange a tasting for qualified large buyouts, or lock in your date hold with a 50% deposit.

You can find us at our main kitchen inside Boxcar Social Harbourfront, located at 235 Queens Quay W. We offer catering services across Harbourfront Centre, including the Whet Bar and Bobby Bermuda’s Sunset Grill. For those living further uptown, you can try out our menus at Boxcar Social Summerhill, where we prepare sandwiches and also cater for special events and buyouts.
