boxed-lunch1Convenience meets nutrition in this fabulous idea: why not have Calvert Cafe & Catering bring your entire office a set of boxed lunches every Monday? We can schedule a once-a-week or twice-a-week delivery on the day of your choice, and deliver straight to you at lunchtime. Our boxes often include a generous sandwich or wrap, chips or fresh, delicately-seasoned potato salad, and of course a delectable dessert. And like everything Calvert, our boxed lunches are completely customizable. Here are some sandwich combinations we think you might savor:

  • Turkey & Brie Baguette
  • Albacore Tuna Salad on Harvest Wheat Bread
  • Turkey & Havarti on Sourdough
  • Roast Beef with Asiago & Horseradish
  • Tarragon Chicken Salad on Pecan Raisin Bread
  • Bacon, Lettuce, & Tomato Wrap

We wouldn’t dream of recommending them unless we had tried them all ourselves (it was no trouble, really), so we can guarantee your office will enjoy them just as much as ours does.

At some offices everyone pays for their own, but this can also be a fabulous employee perk. Contact us today and arrange to sample our fresh and delicious boxed lunch options. Then get your office on our weekly route and enjoy satisfying and nutritious lunches (we only require a minimum of ten!) delivered to your building every single week. Smart you!

barbequeribsReal Barbeque

Let’s just start here: real barbeque is not a grill (although one is used) or an event (but we love to have ‘em); it’s the way summer tastes in the south: Slow-cooked ribs basted in sauce, pulled pork sandwiches drizzled with spicy goodness, and chicken grilled and flavored to perfection get our barbeque parties going, and they don’t stop there, not by a long shot. Not everyone at Calvert Café & Catering is from the South, but we live here now and we understand how to take care of a barbeque jones. We have put together the perfect cookout event for your office Memorial Day party. Book it today and leave the rest to us; we’ll take care of decorations, supplies, delivery, and setup. And we’ll even clean up for you afterwards! Well, you may have to launder that white shirt yourself…

The Tunes

Everyone who books an event will automatically be entered for a chance to win a NEW 4GB iPod Shuffle.

The Dancing

And in keeping with North Carolina barbeque beach tradition, you will qualify for FREE shagging lessons when you book a party for 50 or more people. Check out these guys (and these!) if you need inspiration, then turn up the tunes and get ready for summer fun.

The Barbeque Video

Oh, and if you need a primer on barbeque arguments nuances in the Southeast, you should check out North Carolina barbeque singers  Rhett & Link and the Homestead Pickers.

We understand how compelling blackberries can be. And we’re not talking about email, either. Take a break from the machine and let Calvert Café & Catering bring you an array of fragrant and delectable blackberry desserts. From fresh tarts to blackberry-drizzled cheesecake to blackberry cobbler, we can create an elegant dessert buffet for an office event or for your own private gathering. And we won’t forget coffee, either: freshly roasted, ground, and brewed; then served with real half and half, organic cane sugar, and all the extras.
