The occasion

Conferences catering in Los Angeles & Orange County

What it takes to cater conferences well — the logistics, the timing, and how we make it work.

Conference catering is judged by the clock. Coffee has to be full before the first session, lunch has to feed a few hundred people inside a break that doesn't move, and the afternoon slump needs a snack that actually helps. We plan a conference backward from your agenda — every break, every headcount, every room — and deliver to the minute so the program never waits on the food.

Volume and dietary rigor are the whole job. We run continental breakfasts, boxed and buffet lunches, and all-day beverage service at a scale that holds its quality across a long day, with allergen sheets and clearly labeled vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, and halal · zabiha-sourced lines so a diverse room of attendees is fed without anyone hunting for a safe option. One invoice, itemized by day and by break, built for a planner to reconcile.

Why Carthage

Why Carthage for conferences

What you get with us for conferences specifically — not a generic catering pitch.

  • Delivered to the agenda

    Coffee before the first session, lunch inside the break, an afternoon pick-me-up on time — we plan backward from your run-of-show and hit every mark.

  • Volume that holds quality

    Continental breakfasts, boxed or buffet lunches, and all-day beverage service at a few-hundred-cover scale without the food tasting like it was made for a few hundred.

  • A diverse room, fed

    Allergen sheets and labeled vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, and halal · zabiha-sourced lines so every attendee finds a safe, good option without asking.

  • One invoice, itemized

    Billing broken out by day and by break, built so a planner or finance team can reconcile it at a glance — net terms for established accounts.

Questions

Before you ask

How much does conference catering cost in Los Angeles?
Conference and corporate catering in Los Angeles typically runs $18–$35 per guest for breakfast, boxed lunch and buffets. Carthage's halal menus start around $28 per guest, delivered and set up, with an itemized proposal and invoicing.
Do you handle multi-day conference catering?
Yes — we run multi-day conferences with rotating breakfast, lunch and break menus so attendees don't eat the same thing twice, delivered and set on your schedule across each day. One point of contact, one consolidated invoice.
Can you accommodate dietary restrictions for large groups?
Yes — every dish is labeled, all meat is halal · zabiha-sourced, and we build in clearly-marked vegan, vegetarian and gluten-free options so a large, diverse group is covered. Share approximate counts and we plan accordingly.
Do you deliver to Downtown LA and business districts?
Yes — we deliver conference and corporate catering across LA and Orange County, including Downtown, Century City, Burbank, Pasadena and Irvine, with setup and labeling. Loading and timing are planned to your venue's access.
