onsite CATERING MENU

 

VEGG procures whole foods and all natural ingredients to craft innovative and delicious plant-based dishes. VEGG takes great care to use organic and local ingredients as possible. Everything on our menu is vegan, some dishes can be made vegetarian by request. For those requesting vegetarian, we use organic and pasture raised eggs as well as organic dairy products as possible. Many dishes on our menu are naturally gluten free. Most other dishes can be made gluten free for an additional fee.

Onsite catering is perfect for weddings, large gatherings, cocktail parties, formal dinners, galas, fundraisers, retreats, festivals and more.

PICK YOUR SERVICE STYLE

BUFFETS are great for large groups. Since your guests will be going through a line and serving themselves, this option requires the least amount of staffing (save on labor costs!). *see hospitality options below

FAMILY STYLE service promotes conversation and a “family” feel at your guest tables. Servers bring platters of food to each guest table; guests will pass the platters around and serve themselves. *Requires additional staff for execution, see hospitality below

BUILD YOUR MENU

HORS D'OEUVRES: Choose your hors d'oeuvres for cocktail hour or incorporate them into your main meal (stationary, passed or a combination of both. Add a station for a fun, social, interactive option for your guests! Sliders and mini street tacos are also great options!

MAINS, SIDES, SALADS AND SOUPS: Your menu is fully customizable, build it to suit your tastes and budget.

DESSERTS: Add a sweet ending to your meal! We partner with Capital City Bakery to provide you with Austin's best cupcakes, cookies, pies, cheesecakes and bars. Mix and match to create the dessert bar of your dreams.
