- Award-Winning Catering
With over 30 years of experience, an award-winning chef, and a well-trained staff, Tufts has one of the finest catering teams in the Boston area. We can handle ANY type of event—and we do it well.
- Hundreds of Mouthwatering Menu Items
From casual to gourmet, traditional to innovative, American to global, meat to vegetarian, light snacks to five-course feasts, our new and greatly expanded menu has something for everyone.
- Delicious and Healthy Food
Tufts Catering combines high-quality ingredients, expert preparation, and artful presentation to create outstanding food and successful events. That’s why we’ve won American Culinary Federation Gold Medals—and, more importantly, that’s one of the reasons why our customers rave about us. (See "What Do Customers Say?”) Not only does our food taste great, it’s also good for you. We offer the choicest cuts of meat, whole grains, and fresh vegetables and fruits.
- Service Options to Meet Your Needs
Choose the level of service you want—Economy, Standard, or Executive Service—whatever meets your service needs and budget.
- Easy Ordering and Payment
We make planning a successful event easy. For example, we’ve reduced the lead time you need to make your arrangements. And to make your job easier, our menu includes suggested groupings of items that complement one another and are appropriate for various types of events or times of day. Payment is convenient, too—simply use an Interdepartmental Requisition (IDR). With Tufts Catering, you don’t have to worry about petty cash or business expense reimbursement.
- No One Knows Tufts Better than We Do!
Catering over 1200 Tufts events a year, we have an unparalleled understanding of Tufts’ needs. We know how to make the best use of each space and what food and service choices work especially well when and where.
- Great Value
We provide excellent food and service options, competitively priced. Whatever menu items and level of service you select, you will receive good value for your money. Unlike a commercial caterer, we set our prices to cover our costs, not to make a profit.
- Your Campus Partner
Tufts Catering exclusively serves the Tufts community and considers you our partner. We offer friendly, professional, and reliable service, and we solicit, listen to, and respond to your needs. We continually strive to exceed your expectations. And by using Tufts Catering, you keep Tufts’ money within the university and support Tufts’ efforts to pay colleagues a competitive wage and benefits. We’re mutually beneficial, long-term partners.
- Environmentally-Friendly Focus
At Tufts Catering, we work hard to find economic ways to lessen our impact on the planet. For example, we use locally grown or sustainably produced foods when feasible, offer biodegradable service ware when appropriate, and support university efforts to compost and recycle.
