Proud to be the San Francisco Bay Area's leading catering company.
About

Our Story

Global Gourmet Catering creates incomparable experiences through customized food, beverage and event services, using sustainable practices and a customer service-driven team to exceed our clients' expectations.

Partners David Ashley and Laura Lyons started the company in 1999 with a mission to bring high-end restaurant caliber cuisine and service to a catering industry that was up until then accustomed to hotel banquet standards. Their restaurant ownership, service and management backgrounds enabled them to think outside the "catering box," leading to the development of such catering firsts as large-scale multi-ethnic stations menus.

Global Gourmet has emerged as the San Francisco Bay Area's leading full-service catering company on the strength of our commitment to delivering exquisite cuisine, highly customized menus, trend-setting design, impeccable service and expert on-site execution with attention to every detail while meeting our clients' varying budgetary requirements.

We are the only catering company in Northern California in which our sales and beverage management team members are all Level One Master Sommelier certified, bringing food and beverage pairing opportunities to a whole new level.

While we are often referred to as "the tech caterer" among our industry because of our ability to provide cutting-edge menus, innovative thinking and creativity, and over-the-top customer service for our corporate clients like Apple, Facebook, Google, Twitter and LinkedIn, we also work with wide range of companies in the retail, legal, financial services, education and destination management sectors as well, to name a few.

We are also proud to have the opportunity to work with non-profit organizations like Bridge School, the San Francisco AIDS Foundation and X-Prize, and often partner with premier event planning and production companies to ensure the highest quality food and beverage catering service programs possible.
