From-scratch catering for Concord and central Contra Costa.
Winslow's Catering Concord exists because too much catering in this county shows up tasting like it was packed hours away and reheated on arrival. We handle the unglamorous parts ourselves — the butchering, the prep, the cooking, the delivery, the staffing, the breakdown — whether it's a Monday all-hands off Concord Avenue, a graduation lunch in Clayton, or a 250-guest reception on a lawn in Walnut Creek.
A Concord team with a production kitchen behind it
Winslow's Catering Concord operates under Fresh Pulp Holdings LLC, a Bay Area catering group with several regional brands. Across those brands we cater well over a thousand events a year and have served more than a million guests.
What that buys you is practical rather than flashy. Your event is run by people who already know Contra Costa logistics — dock access along Willow Pass Road, badge-in rules at the business parks off Concord Boulevard, what Highway 4 and the 242 look like at 11:15 on a weekday — while the food comes out of a kitchen with the purchasing power and capacity of a much larger operation. A ten-person leadership lunch in Pleasant Hill on Wednesday and a 200-guest wedding in Martinez on Saturday are held to the same standard.
Styled Evening Buffet
Staffed Corporate LunchThe kitchen behind the menu
Jason has spent more than a decade building this menu the only way catering food can honestly be judged: mid-service, half an hour in, with a line of guests waiting. If a dish won't hold its texture over a chafer, survive the drive across the county and earn a second trip through the buffet, it doesn't stay.
That filter produced a deliberately broad menu — Italian, Mexican, barbecue, Mediterranean and California classics — where the vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options are written as real dishes rather than substitutions. Proteins are cut in house, sauces and dressings are made from scratch, and the seasonal sections follow what Delta and valley growers are actually picking that month.
Courtyard Reception SetupWhat we cater in Concord
Our Contra Costa work ranges from a standing weekly office lunch to a formal evening reception. The formats we handle most:
- • Wedding catering — plated, buffet or family-style, with staffing, florals and rentals on one contract
- • Full-service events — galas, fundraisers, company milestones, conferences and holiday parties with uniformed staff
- • Drop-off catering for Concord offices, job sites, meetings and neighborhood gatherings
- • Individually boxed meals for trainings, all-hands days and large-group logistics
- • Holiday catering — Thanksgiving, Christmas, Easter and December workplace parties
- • Event florals and rentals as add-ons or on their own

Concord is home base, and we cater across central and east Contra Costa plus the wider Bay Area: Concord, Pleasant Hill, Clayton, Martinez, Walnut Creek, Lafayette, Orinda, Moraga, Danville, Alamo, San Ramon, Pittsburg, Antioch, Brentwood, Oakley and Benicia — and the rest of the region for larger full-service events. One flat delivery rate covers our core Concord service area, so a business park order pays the same as a hillside home in Clayton.
