All catering on campus must originate through Parkhurst. They provide a number of options through the “No Frills” student catering menu, and can also customize menus on request. If you would like to order catering from an outside vendor, this must first be approved by Parkhurst. Outside vendor requests may be approved if: 1, Parkhurst is already at capacity for that date (e.g., during large events such as Homecoming); or 2, Parkhurst cannot provide an appropriate equivalent (e.g., for highly specialized cultural menus). Parkhurst can also coordinate catering through four local restaurants: Pacific Rim / Cravings Deli, Cottage Inn, Big Burrito, and Hunan Gardens. If you would like to order from one of those restaurants, please select “Outside Vendor” below.

In general, catering is intended for events that are open to the whole campus, or special group events/celebrations (e.g., after a performance; 1-2 times per term). For regular meetings, orgs can access the OSA pantry of snack items.
