Private Event Catering in Peterborough & Central Ontario

catering for every occasion
for gatherings that feel personal, not produced.
Private events are different. They’re smaller, closer, and shaped more by the people in the room than by a schedule.
Fyrestoke provides private event catering in Peterborough built around care, pacing, and food that feels considered — whether that means a composed drop-off, a shared table, or a more involved service. Our role is to support the gathering without turning it into a production
Food that brings everyone closer
Private events invite a different kind of attention. Guests notice more. Timing feels tighter. The food sits closer to the center of the gathering.
We approach private event catering with that in mind. Aroma matters, but it’s measured. Heat is present, but controlled. Service moves with the room instead of over it. The goal isn’t impact — it’s connection.

Flexible by Design. Grounded in Execution.
Private events vary widely — from casual celebrations to carefully planned dinners. Our private event catering services are designed to adapt to those differences while maintaining consistent standards.
What changes is how the service shows up. What doesn’t change is how seriously we take execution.
Private Event Catering Service Styles
Drop-Off
Simple and composed.
Drop-off catering works well for private events that want quality food without on-site service. Menus are designed specifically for this format, delivered ready to serve, and built to hold well as the event unfolds.
This option keeps things relaxed while still feeling intentional.
Buffet
Shared food, natural flow.
Buffet and family-style service brings food into the center of the room. Dishes are shared, passed, and replenished as needed, creating an easy rhythm that suits informal celebrations and gatherings.
This format adds interaction without adding formality.
Elevated /plated
Structured without being stiff.
For private events that want a more guided meal, elevated service offers pacing and coordination without the weight of a formal occasion.
Courses are served with intention, allowing the food to be noticed without dominating the evening.
