The 7 Best Event Caterers in Medellín

1. Hatoviejo

So, kicking off our guide to caterers in Medellín, we have Hatoviejo. Hatoviejo is an iconic fixture of the city, dating back to 1982.

Their mission was to give the people of the city a cosy atmosphere to enjoy traditional Paisan culture.

And as it happens, they succeeded in their mission. So much so that they’ve opened two further locations in Medellín since then.

Their menu is loaded with the best of traditional Colombian cuisine, like Bandeja Paisa, Ajiaco, Sancocho, Mondongo, Sudado, and so on.

However, it’s not an entirely local experience. Hatoviejo also offer a selection of international barbeque and grill dishes too!

The experience is rounded off by stunning Paisan design in their service and even live entertainment if the spirit takes you!

They’ve won some impressive awards too – don’t just take our word – winning prizes like “Best Restaurant in Antioquia” by La Barra magazine in 2011 and the Rosa De Los Vientos prize, granted by the Colombian Tourism Journalist Association.

2. Soy Chef

Soy Chef is event catering in Medellín for those who love choice. And when we say choice, we mean it. Because at Soy, they do everything!

From breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks, and even vacuum-packed catering, they can cover any kind of event, size and style. So if you want something healthy, something to go, something to graze on, or a formal seated meal, they’ll make a personalised solution for you!

But what’s really cool about this event caterer in Medellín is that they do exciting speciality-themed packages. Whether you want specific regional food around Colombia or something from further afield: Italian, Mexican, or Asian, you can have whatever you desire. They even do a Christmas dinner service!

3. Pimienta Catering & Eventos

Pimienta is an excellent choice if you’re looking for corporate catering in Medellín that is passionate about using local produce.

They are particularly good with fish. We recommend trying their ceviche and their baked salmon with cumin and achiote.

And as well as working with top-quality ingredients, they know how to present it in style. You can see for yourself from their spectacular finger sandwich buffets and dazzling fruit displays!

4. Gourmet Catering Medellín

Gourmet Catering Medellín is your choice if you’re looking to give your guests crowd favourites. It’s food to put a smile on people’s faces.

Their signature products are their chocolate boxes. They’re colourful packages stacked with doughnuts, cookies, cakes, and chocolate bars. And, of course, in true Colombian style, they’re served with hot cocoa – the perfect treat to share between colleagues or new friends!

And if you’re looking for something more in the shape of the main dish, they do hearty classics like burritos, barbeques, corn on the cob, grilled steaks, and Arroz de mar. So, in short, this is an event caterer in Medellín that gives people homely food that everyone loves!

5. Pizca

Our next slice of corporate catering in Medellín is for those who like the homely things in life.

At Pizca, they make all their food using ‘grandma’s recipe’. Using her recipes, you’ll find some of the tastiest and best-priced Colombian cuisine in all of Medellín.

Their philosophy on food is built on a love for the freshest ingredients possible and a dedication to traditional Colombian cuisine.

And a little tip from us, we particularly love their omelettes and their ajiaco (Colombian chicken and potato soup).
