What We Offer

TAKE THE HASSLE OUT OF COOKING AND DO YOUR TASTE BUDS A FAVOR

We offer a range of services to meet the needs of every client. Have something else in mind? We'd be happy to work with you to create the event of your dreams.

  • For intimate dinners, celebrations, and moments worth remembering.

    You focus on your guests. I'll handle everything else. After a short consultation, I'll design a custom menu around your preferences, dietary needs, and the feeling you want to create. On the day of your event, I'll arrive, cook, serve, and clean up — leaving your kitchen exactly as I found it, and your guests exactly as they should be: full, happy, and taken care of.

    *Perfect for: date nights, bachelorette dinners, birthday celebrations, intimate gatherings

  • For corporate events, parties, and everything in between.

    Whether you need a full-service catered spread or a beautifully packaged drop-off, we'll build a menu that fits your event and your crowd. Buffet setups, boxed lunches, plated dinners — it all starts with a conversation about what you need, and ends with food that does the talking.

    *Perfect for: office breakfasts & lunches, birthday parties, baby showers, corporate events

    Looking for drop-off catering for your office or event?

    Bagel Stop offers corporate catering and drop-off options perfect for team lunches, meetings, and company events — ordering is fast and easy.

  • For busy people who still want to eat well.

    Let a trained chef take meal planning off your plate - literally. We'll talk through your goals, your dietary needs, and your weekly routine. Then I'll do the shopping, the cooking, and the portioning. You come home to real food that's ready when you are.

    *Perfect for: athletes in training, dietary-specific needs, busy professionals and families

  • For curious hands and hungry minds.

    Learn by doing with a trained chef right beside you. Whether it's a team building experience, a girls' night, or a personal goal to level up in the kitchen, cooking classes are hands-on, fun, and end the best way possible: with a meal you made yourself.

    *Perfect for: corporate team building, date nights, friend groups, skill-building

  • For restaurants, brands, and culinary concepts that need a fresh eye.

    As the owner and operator of Bagel Stop Sandwich & Catering, a multi-location breakfast and lunch concept in downtown Cincinnati, I bring real, firsthand perspective to menu development and food business consulting. I've built menus that balance flavor, cost, and repeatability. I know what works in a commercial kitchen and what doesn't. If you're launching a concept, refreshing a menu, or trying to figure out why something isn't landing, let's talk.

    *Perfect for: restaurants, pop-ups, food entrepreneurs, private clubs
