How we pick these caterers

This list is alphabetical, not ranked, and no caterer paid to be on it. We look for Phoenix restaurants and catering companies that publish a real catering menu, handle drop-off or delivery for groups, and come up again and again when local offices talk about who they order from.

Pricing, minimums, lead times and delivery areas come from each caterer's own website and were last checked in October 2026. Of the 15 listed, 6 publish pricing and 6 state a lead time. If a detail is missing, the caterer doesn't publish it. Confirm before you order. Spot something wrong or missing? Email us.

Office catering in Phoenix: what to expect

Phoenix office demand is spread across the Valley, and it is not downtown. In the third quarter of 2026 metro office vacancy was 23.7%, but Scottsdale Airpark sat at 14.4%, Central Scottsdale at 17.2% and the Camelback Corridor at 20.1%, against 30.4% downtown and 27.2% in Midtown. Freeport-McMoRan moved its headquarters out of downtown to Cotton Center near the airport in early 2026. Add TSMC's 900-acre campus in north Phoenix, Mayo Clinic's $1.9 billion expansion and 51,200 students on ASU's Tempe campus and you get a lot of lunches far from the core. Carmen's Tamales sits on the Camelback Corridor. Fat Freddy's, Pork on a Fork and Our Kitchen to Yours all work out of Deer Valley, close to TSMC. Chef Phoenix is in Mesa and La Ristra in Chandler, covering the East Valley.

Six of these fifteen caterers publish real prices. Catering by Sikora lists boxed lunches at $13 to $24 per person with a $150 delivery minimum and 24 hours' notice for lunch. Corporate Caterers posts lunch specials at $12.95 to $15.95 per guest for 10 or more. Hummus Xpress charges $18.50 per person for plates and $25 for its Kebab Craze on 24 hours' notice. U.S. Egg runs $17 to $25 per person with an $85 minimum and asks for 24 to 48 hours. La Ristra prices combo plates at $15 to $18 per person, and Taza's staffed buffets start around $45. Carmen's has a $200 minimum and suggests ordering 4 or 5 days ahead. Manuel's needs $100 and 24 hours. If you want to order online without a call, Carmen's, Manuel's, Fat Freddy's, Corporate Caterers and U.S. Egg all let you.

A few Phoenix specifics. Arizona taxes a restaurant delivery charge as part of the sale whether it is listed separately or not, so expect tax on the fee. Manuel's charges 15% of the subtotal for drop-off, Sikora adds a 10% to 20% service fee and charges 25% for same-day cancellations, and Hummus Xpress scales delivery from $40 within 3 miles to $80 out to 25 miles. Sikora delivers within 20 miles and bills $3.50 a mile beyond that. Our Kitchen to Yours will not deliver breakfast to the East Valley. Taza quotes delivery per event and leans full service. Sharko's website blocked every attempt to read it and Barrio Queen's catering page would not render, so call both. The Phoenix Convention Center drew 293,300 delegates in 2025 and hosts Women's Final Four events in April, so book early those weeks.
