PARAMOUNT EVENTS
Drop-off
Flavors Delivered
Not every event calls for full-service, and that’s why we developed drop-off catering. You can expect the same, chef-driven, local and seasonal cuisine – delivered. It’s an ideal solution for office lunch catering in Chicago, happy hours, launch events, or a corporate retreat. Everything in your order is made fresh in-house, with vibrant flavors and nourishing ingredients to keep your guests fueled. Food is then delivered by our in-house team, who can answer any questions and set up your order, including all the serveware, disposable cutlery and tent cards describing dishes and contained allergens. With a focus on sustainability, we reduce waste through careful preparation practices, composting, and by using sustainable and recyclable packaging.
CAPABILITIES
Food is Fuel
We curate a robust offering of menus ideal for all kinds of events, from office catering to backyard BBQs. We always offer a core selection of tried and true items while rotating in unique seasonal menus like ballpark bites, Valentine’s treats, seasonal soups, and festive holiday fare. Our drop-off option is perfect for Chicagoland office catering in the form of boxed lunches for meetings, platters for brainstorming sessions or sweets to show employee appreciation. Hosting at home? Lay out a simple and impressive array of savory snacks, dips, cheeses, and cured meats. Looking for a chill day with your best girlfriends? Choose our spa-inspired menu of light and bright flavors. Need a little more? Our hybrid catering keeps our staff on site for the duration of your event, bridging the gap between full-service and drop off when you need some extra hands.
OFFICE LUNCH
Our lunch catering will change the way your employees think about office food. To us, food is fuel, even in the form of boxed lunches. Our sandwiches and wraps are filled with crunchy vegetables, hormone-free and pasture-raised meats, and flavorful housemade spreads to pull it all together.
It’s not just sandwiches, either. Our Chicago lunch catering can include everything from salads and bowls to globally-inspired spreads. There are plenty of delicious options for those with special diets and food allergies, too.
CELEBRATIONS
Our drop-off catering is perfect for celebrations of ten or more. Whether hosting a birthday, engagement party or casual party “just because”, we offer solutions that make entertaining effortless and extraordinary.
Choose from colorful trays of fresh cut veggies with red pepper and feta dip and beautiful charcuterie and cheese platters with all the accoutrements. We have hors d’oeuvres for every palate like Snake River Beef Sliders with garlic aioli and aged cheddar, Shrimp Summer Rolls with peanut sauce, and Persian Cucumber Cups filled with hummus and za’atar. Or serve an impressive whole Midwest Farmer’s Market dinner spread or a bountiful brunch – no cooking required.
FOOD AND BEVERAGE
We’ve curated the best selection of menus, from individually packaged items to family-style spreads for breakfast, lunch, dinner, or even just a nosh. We are delighted to help with everything from Instagram-able ice cream socials to backyard cookouts and brunch buffets. Just like our full-service catering, enjoy local, seasonal food, made in-house.
SUSTAINABILITY
Sustainability is part of every decision we make at Paramount Events – from our local and ethical sourcing to our flourishing, year-round, on-site greenhouse, to our mindful selection of serveware. We continuously seek creative ways to use ingredients in their entirety from seed to flower, nose to tail. What we can’t use, we compost, donate, and divert. We are dedicated to reducing our environmental impact and setting the table for a greener future for both our clients and the hospitality industry.
