Palo Alto Caterers and Event Planning

LET’S PLAN YOUR PALO ALTO EVENT

Handheld Catering has been providing catering services to the Bay area and Palo Alto for many years. Palo Alto with its vibrant downtown defines Palo Alto’s unique character. A charming mixture of old and new. The tree-lined streets and historic buildings reflect its California heritage. A unique town deserves a unique caterer. We believe in fresh foods. We believe that we should eat foods that are plucked from the earth by a farmer’s hand, hand checked by our chefs for quality, then cooked to perfection for your special event. We specialize in sourcing locally grown foods for the best flavor.

Since Palo Alto is home to some of the best restaurants in the Bay Area we set the bar really high for our Palo Alto catering business.
