Catering with Fresh Ideas: Our Place or Yours

The catering staff at all Fresh Ideas Food Service Management locations are available to assist you with your next catering event. No matter if you are planning a coffee service for a few people or an extensive buffet for a few hundred people, we would be pleased to serve you. Special dietary arrangements for your guests can also be accommodated.

At each of our client partnerships, we are responsible for catering events at their facilities. Catering can range from lunch in a conference room to turning a gymnasium into a gala space. Lela Raney Wood Hall, also referred to as Kimball Ballroom at Stephens College in Columbia, Missouri, is among the many venues where our trusted expertise and history make us the preferred food services provider. In addition to being a well-known caterer in Missouri, Fresh Ideas is also established in Arkansas, Illinois, Kansas, Kentucky, Nebraska, South Dakota, Tennessee, and Texas.

Beyond the college and university events, we cater year-round, we also work closely with couples planning their wedding, and organizations holding a regional meeting or holiday party. We’ve loved being asked by community members to cater a milestone birthday party or a retirement celebration. We’ve received praise for our creativity and attention to detail for custom off-site events as well. Our food truck, known as the Taste Kitchen, is another way we’re able to bring unique catering ideas to life. Imagine working with our executive chef to create a custom food truck menu for your family reunion.

The benefit for someone in a community where we are the dining services provider for a college or university is that, unlike other caterers, we can draw from our large pool of talented professionals to make your event dreams come to life. We know what works well with feeding large groups of people; we’ve been doing it for almost 20 years, and are happy to provide our expertise.

We are eager about the possibility of catering your event. Whatever your occasion might be, we always place an emphasis on providing good food and excellent customer service. Planning your next catered event with Fresh Ideas is certain to be fun and easy.
