Discover buffet catering

Heycater! makes it easy for you to order the perfect buffet catering by allowing you to customize your buffets and maintain complete control over your order. The selection of buffets ranges from down-to-earth to exotic and creative, barbecue to fine dining. You are sure to find the right thing for every taste!

So, you're planning an event or a company function and want to order a buffet? You've come to the right place with heycater!, where you'll find the best and most talented caterers in your city to lovingly prepare, deliver, and serve the buffet of your choice. We offer you an overview of many different buffet menus so you can easily compare prices and compositions without having to send individual inquiries to many different catering providers. We want you and your guests to be able to share wonderful food together, because good food brings people together. Where better to have a conversation than over an excellent meal shared together? What makes people happier than a good selection of creative dishes gathered in a buffet from which everyone can take exactly what they want?

order vegetarian & vegan buffets

Of course, different people have different appetites, which makes buffets perfect for any occasion where many people come together. You don't dictate what or how much your colleagues and guests should eat; instead, everyone can decide for themselves which part of the catering they would like to enjoy. Perhaps your assistant lives by the "dessert first" principle, or your favorite intern eats strictly vegetarian or even vegan and can therefore choose exactly what suits them from the buffet. And where is it easier to strike up a conversation than in front of a buffet while admiring the beautifully decorated dishes together? It's an instant icebreaker!

Heycater! is your go-to destination for perfect business catering, and we are here to help you find it. We have catering experts specifically trained to handle all your business and event catering needs. Our experts have been doing a fantastic job for years and are well-versed in everything you might require. Furthermore, they maintain close contact with our caterers, allowing them to respond quickly to any changes, deviations, or questions. With heycater!, everything is simple: just fill out our inquiry form, let us know your wishes and requirements, and one of our experts will get in touch with you directly. You can then discuss the details of your event together, and nothing will stand in the way of your perfect buffet catering. Our selected buffet caterers are based in cities such as Berlin, Hamburg, Munich, Frankfurt and many other cities.

Carpe Dürüm: International buffet caterers at heycater!

The selection of buffet catering options is huge! For business occasions, cold buffets with small bites that can be easily eaten while standing are ideal. Cold buffets are well-suited for sophisticated events like receptions or evening functions. Often, a selection of small cold dishes is served at such events. Examples include assorted mini sandwiches, various vegetable skewers with different dips and sauces, mini burgers with a wide range of toppings, or simple savory pretzel snacks.

Hot buffets or finger food buffets

Buffet catering can be incredibly creative. Our caterers prioritize fresh ingredients, selected specifically for you and your event. For lunch, Hot buffets are highly recommended, featuring a selection of sides such as salads, breads, and various spreads. Alongside these, we offer meat or fish and, of course, a variety of meat-free dishes kept warm in chafing dishes. For lovely celebrations, perhaps even outdoors on a green lawn, Finger foodbuffets are popular everywhere. These pretty little delicacies are usually gone faster than you might think.

What is also wonderful and very important for you to know: our caterers bring all the equipment, including dishes and cutlery upon request, and take care of the setup. We stand for a reliable catering service. We have personally vetted, tested, and curated all our caterers with a great deal of love and passion for good food, making it easier for you to find the perfect buffet catering for your event. Through our simple online booking, we want to take as much stress and work off your hands as possible, so you can calmly focus on other important things. Catering stress ends with heycater!

Delicious international buffet options

Buffets can be the most versatile option catering has to offer. There are so many types of different buffets that there is something for every taste. For example, we love Turkish buffets à la Carpe Dürüm. What do you think? A warm Turkish red lentil soup, accompanied by freshly baked flatbread as a light starter? For the main course, there is manti: with yogurt sauce, yogurt, or just on its own. As a vegetarian main course, there is oven-fresh eggplant stuffed with vegetables in a fruity tomato sauce. Of course, you will also find fish on your buffet. How about some freshly grilled kebab with salad or bread? Our Turkish caterers can also make any lahmacun dream come true: lahmacun for you and your guests to top yourselves DIY-style? Wow! That sounds like a Turkish catering dream! Of course, no Turkish buffet catering is complete without the crowning glory: dessert—dreamily crispy baklava or colorful Turkish delight? Naturally, our caterers are not only responsible for your perfect food but also take care of the perfect drinks for your international buffet. So, how does a Turkish buffet with all these treats sound, paired with aromatic Turkish coffee, apple tea, or ayran? Just think about it!

Or are you thinking in a completely different direction? How does a breakfast buffet sound to you? Here is what we imagine: a room filled with the scent of fresh rolls and aromatic coffee, and a top-class breakfast buffet. It all starts with various types of yogurt: plain, berry, and soy. There are plenty of toppings to choose from: fresh fruit, nuts, dried fruit, coconut flakes, and chia seeds. Just the sight of it makes everyone's mouth water. It’s not just vegetarians and fruit lovers who will be delighted; there is also plenty for vegan lifestyles. It continues with a large meat and cheese platter that offers so much variety that you and your guests won't even be able to decide. Next to that, you will find a selection of egg dishes, fresh pancakes, fried sausages, and baked beans in tomato sauce. Of course, crispy fried bacon is a must! If you wish, our caterers can also provide a live breakfast chef for your buffet, who will prepare egg dishes and pancakes right before your eyes.

A breakfast buffet is just as suitable for any occasion as a buffet full of finger food. Especially during long meetings, workshops, or conferences, every participant appreciates a balanced and creative breakfast. This is especially true if our caterers also bring a mobile coffee station, which will become a meeting point for all your guests. Who doesn't love the perfect breakfast buffet?

What our customers say

Last year, I had to arrange catering for an important meeting at very short notice. I was surprised by the incredibly fast and friendly service; after a short phone call, I received several offers within a few hours. I've been using Heycater ever since! whenever I need catering. I like the control via the account the best, all adjustments and questions are answered quickly. An incredible time saver for me!

“Great Christmas party thanks to heycater: I use heycater's service! for my faculty Christmas party. Even though I had to change my offer at very short notice (add gluten-free offers, etc.), my contact person was very accommodating and friendly. Even during the pre-Christmas stress, I received nothing but friendliness, customer-oriented cooperation and respect.
Hannah Görtlitz
“Smooth ordering and delivery, great food!

Had ordered the food for a full-day workshop for 12 people (vegetarian. /vegan sandwiches, mini croissants, muffins, lunch bowls) was delicious as always and was delivered on time.

Always happy!”
Markus W.
“Everything was great, I'd love to go back!

The ordering process was super easy, the selection was delivered on time - including beautiful decorations (fresh fruit, tomatoes, herbs in pots, decorative pumpkin) - and attractively distributed on the tables. The food itself was very well received by colleagues. Each dish was labelled and there was also information about allergens.”
