Our Goal

O'Brien Catering's 's mission is to provide you and your guests with appropriately styled and attractively priced food. In general, our food is freshly prepared from high-quality ingredients. Our chicken and pork are usually from free-range sources, which means you're getting real value and quality for your money.

Some ask, why use a caterer? Allowing us to prepare the food for your event takes this burden off you and frees you to pre-plan and then enjoy your event  Use our services to spend your time doing what you want while we prepare and present what your guests will enjoy eating. To guarantee freshness and quality, we do all the shopping, the preparation, transport and any clean-up that's necessary after your party is over.

We are based in Bettystown, County Meath, and serve clients in North County Dublin, Eastern Co. Meath and Southern sections of Co. Louth.

Our Chefs and Other Personnel

All of the O'Brien Catering staff having anything to do with preparing or serving your food are fully trained in food hygiene techniques. We adhere to strict H.A.C.C.P. (food and personal hygiene) regulations. You needn't ever worry about the safety of what is served at your event. Our chefs are highly trained and experienced professionals. Proprietor and Chef Pat O'Brien has worked in the food and drinks industry for many years and has completed culinary skills courses in the United States and at Failte Ireland, in Dublin.

Our Products and Pricing

Our prices are fair and reflect a sound mix of quantity and quality so you'll get a product that is as good or better than you would receive in a quality restaurant. You may find caterers who will have lower prices or who will drop prices to snatch up your business.

Keep in mind there are only two ways to reduce prices: By reducing or even foregoing profit (not likely) or by skimping on higher priced ingredients in what they're selling. If you order a chicken curry or beef stew, for instance, how happy are you going to be when you're searching through your bowl for the missing meat? Not very.

The point is O'Brien Catering will always give you the best deal and the best product possible, given current market conditions. But we won't sell substandard products simply to beat our competitors and get your business at any cost.
