A true family run catering business started in the early 90's that I remember from my days living in Bend beginning in the late 90's, they came to the rescue for my brother and his wife who arrived in Bend late on December 23 to spend time with my elderly dad who is at home with caregivers when they needed a holiday dinner that they weren't going to want to cook. They ordered the holiday meal for six, example menus linked here https://bendcatering.com/catering/holidays/, had someone pick it up for them the afternoon of the 23rd and when the meal was served on Christmas day it amply fed not only the six people planned but there was ample amount to feed three more who dropped in. Leftovers for the next day too. Everyone enjoyed every item from ham and turkey through sides and pies ordered (add on) for dessert. Cody's Country Catering (the Yelp header says Country Catering but Cody's has been part of the name for as long as I remember), also does weddings, family reunions, business meetings and other events and has luncheon menus in addition to dinner fare. Family meal dinners in serving sizes as small as for four people are also available to pick up on Fridays. Or were so maybe still are with pre-order by phone. Note this is carnivore / omnivore centric. https://bendcatering.com/family-dinners/ read more

I went to a wedding this weekend and I have to say it was one of the worst meals I ever had. I couldn't even eat it. I threw it away. I've been in the restaurant business for years and do my own catering, and I felt embarrassed for the host and I'm sure they spent a good amount of money to have this. There was an appetizer of barbecue tips which was OK a little fatty pieces not trim well smothered in barbecue sauce served with guac and salsa. Later when they were putting this stuff away, they were putting the chips back in the bag with no gloves on, how unsanitary All I can think of is they were going to use the chips again otherwise they would've thrown them away after somebody touched them with their hands very disgusting not even allowed in the food business. The salad seemed like package, chopped up lettuce lot of iceberg with there small bowls of dressing. Nothing really special added no tomato, cucumbers, olives, anything. Garlic bread was served in foil wrap very greasy . lukewarm barbecue chicken no sauce on it had to add it on the side sauce was cold , then the topper was some sort of cut of beef maybe a London broil, but it either was cut on the wrong grain. It was about a half inch thick it was cooked medium to medium rare, . But it was the toughest piece of meat. I was trying to cut it, and the fork broke and the knife broke The person next to me couldn't cut it either. they were saying I should. I pick it up with my hand naw it. I would be embarrassed if I was the catering company putting out this kind of food. If you're gonna put that cut of meat out, keep it whole have someone there carving it. Cutting thin slice it on the right grain so that people can eat it.The macaroni and cheese was like glorified Velveeta cheese flat in flavor they served it with a big soup scoop instead of a a normal serving spoon it all lopped up into the spoon had to tap it against the table to get it out. No seasoning very disappointing. The Server at one point seemed to be very mad cleaning up. She was rushing and pounding things against the table one of the guest said that someone should go over to her and tell her to cool it because it was very distracting. Very embarrassing representation of a company. Feel bad for the bride and groom that had to pay for this. . A writing this because sometimes owners don't see what direction their business is going in and how their staff represent them. So I hope you take this with consideration of the honest feedback. I'm giving . You need to regroup and review what you're serving. read more

I was in the neighborhood and decided to try out some breakfast at this catering co. Ummmm can I just say I will be in this neighborhood more often. The prices were great and my breakfast sandwich was delicious! I will be back again... And I noticed they have live music, and happy hour! I didn't even have time to post before I was back here again.... Lunch is amazing... You know it's goob BBQ when you need 5 napkins ;) read more

See all

Picked up sliders and potato salad for family gathering. Cody and his crew are nothing but courteous and polite. The slider meat and bbq sauce were excellent, but I truly loved the potato Mac salad. It was perfect! Thank you Cody! read more

I've never given one star before and I feel terrible about it. I'm tempted to give two stars just because I'm reviewing one solo experience with this place. But, I felt even worse after attending a function that had this restaurant do their catering. It was just not good. At all. I didn't get sick, I just couldn't believe the quality of the food. Sliced sausage links in a watery barbeque sauce. Rolled ham and sliced cheese. Plain white buns and tubs of mayo to make sandwiches with. Chicken wings that looked to be sparrow wings (they were so small) seasoned with just pepper. Even the pasta salad with fresh broccoli was lacking any form of seasoning. Everything was served in plastic disposable bowls which just added to the cheapness factor. Maybe lunch at the restaurant is better than their catering. All I know is that we went out to eat afterward because we were starving. read more

Went in and grabbed some take out sandwiches. The famous tri-tip and a grilled chicken. Both very large, nice amount of meat served on French rolls. Both of us could only eat half! Very , very good! Sandwiches served with a side that is about 3 tablespoon sized. The potato salad was really tasty but the macaroni salad was too sweet for me. Customer choice, next time I would try something else instead of Mac salad. Small to medium sized dining area. Super friendly service. Lots of beverages to choose from, both bottled and on tap. Loved walking to counter and seeing all the freshly BBQ meat in the warmer!! Apparently they do catering, outdoor BBQ events there in the summer and take out dinners for moderate prices for the quality of food. read more

A friend told us about this place after they saved the day by helping with a high school sports team awards banquet. We love to support locals who support our community. Went for lunch. My wife rarely has a sandwich. Ordered the spicy tri tip. Comes on a French roll. Best sandwich she has ever had. It is now high on our list of places for take out when we don't feel like cooking. The bread was awesome. Meat tender great flavor and not fatty(a must for my wife who is very picky). Staff friendly and helpful. Prices right where I expect them to be. Will up date when we do take out dinner read more

This is a real BBQ. Meat is cooked outside on a wood fired smoker. There were 4 of us and we all tried something different. The pulled pork and pulled tri-tip were both excellent. The pulled pork had that sweet carmalized glaze that comes from slow cooking on a wood smoker. Everything was very well done. We were looking for a caterer for my daughters wedding. Country catering is the winner. read more

I had a hot and spicy sandwich that I though barely had any tri tip on it but a lot of bread. For the sandwich to taste better it really needed more grub in it especially for the price. Also the salads that went with it were had too much mayonaise for my taste. I do remember having a sandwich there in the past that tasted much better so it could be that this particular sandwich didn't suit my fancy. Anyway if you wish to give it a try maybe it might work for you but not for me. read more

Country Catering's mediocre food quality is even less satisfying over the sound of the management screaming (yes, literally screaming) at their employees. First of all, I own and operate two businesses; I'm fully aware that employees need to be reprimanded from time to time, but it gets done privately and away from customers. My business colleagues and I were absolutely speechless during the unprofessional display of complete lack of self-control on the part of the owners, management or whomever was in charge and delivering the tirade. We will never go there again. Ruined our whole meal and that of those around us. read more

This place is great!!! Stopped today for lunch. Craving some sort of bbq or sandwich and honestly didn't know what to expect . This place delivers! I had an excellent tri tip sandwich that came with a side of potato salad and I wanted to try the cole slaw as well. Tri tip is cooked perfectly and the sandwich is delicious. Nice sides as well. I'll be back to explore more of what the Menu offers that's for sure. One last thing, I really liked the atmosphere. I sat outside because it's a gorgeous fall day but just walking inside makes you hungry. It's that kinda place. read more

Country Catering - Fast, super friendly service and delicious food. Nice relaxing , quiet atmosphere!! - Caterers Near Me - Bend, Oregon

Just awesome! We attended a fiftieth wedding anniversary catered by these folks. They provided ALL the food It was delicious period

Best flavor bbq around, great choices, top notch catering (been very happy [& full!] at all the events I've been to that they catered) & the friendliest, nicest group of people in town. Take home some of their seasoning & it will make you a better grill master :) Baldy's has more seating, Slick's has a slicker name, but Country Catering has better food! Watch for the Friday night BBQ on the Patio in the summer & don't miss it! Good music, great people, excellent food! read more

This is for the Deli. Food was OK but frankly there was very little meat on the sandwiches. What meat there was was just smothered in a sweet BBQ sauce. Quality was OK, not terrible but not great. Not a good value for the money by any means. With so many good places to eat in Bend you might want to go elsewhere. If you're stuck in the area without a car it's better than going hungry. read more

I have to admit that I've only gotten one plate here but I've ordered it at least 50 times. TRI TIP PLATE. I can't get away from it :)) I've been stopping here for lunch since they opened several years ago. Back then the plates would come out piled high with their delicious meat. Nowadays they seem to be pretty small but still just as delicious! read more

I was too lazy to BBQ for my house warming party (40 people) so Cody's did smoked tri-tip, pulled pork and all the classic sides for a slider buffet for me! EVERYONE at my party raved about how great the food was and went back for seconds. The rolls were soft and fresh. The baked beans were off the charts. The BBQ sauce and meat flavor was amazing...etc, etc! There was a generous amount of food for a reasonable price per person. I highly recommend getting your party catered here! I'm impressed!!... and thankful my party was a hit! Thanks Cody & crew!! read more

This was my first visit, and will definitely not be my last. I'm just sorry it took me so long to try it. We did the family dinner, as take out, and it was a delightful experience all the way around. The employees are very friendly and helpful, and having a sample taste helped me make my decision to get the tri tip steak. It was delicious and tender and we enjoyed it so much. Definitely ample portions. Highly recommend this place. read more

The Country Catering Company holds some of my fondest memories of a good friend of mine, the late Greg King. Many years prior to moving to Bend with my family eleven years ago, Greg and I would come down to Bend to fly fish the Deschutes River during the salmon fly hatch. Every year the company that we chartered would serve BBQ Tri Tip half way down the river between Warm Springs and Trout Creek. Needless to say, the Tri Tip was some of the best I have ever had. I was first introduced to Country Catering Company and I quote "The Home of the famous Tri Tip Sandwich" on 3rd tucked in the back of a gas station over a decade ago. Now they have a very nice location on 9th and Wilson and serve a variety of BBQ meats including their own BBQ sauce and rubs. You will find the locals hang out here at least once a week. Thank you Country Catering for all the wonderful memories! read more

This place is outstanding! I had given up all hope of good BBQ in Bend then I found this gem. Reasonable prices and friendly people. If your in Bend and need to get your meat fix, this is the place. read more

Country Catering - So damn good !! Best BBQ in Bend... - Caterers Near Me - Bend, Oregon

I'll have to agree with Jen F. who was the first one to review this place. I'm a fan. Everything we tried was **fabulous** and between everyone in our group we ordered a wide sample of their menu. The tri-tip sandwich was amazing. And: DO NOT LEAVE WITHOUT A BROWNIE!!! read more

Good solid food, sandwiches are good. Not 5 stars because I think the sides are just okay.

Country Catering is now located at the corner of 9th & Wilson. Out of your way? It's worth a little extra driving! They offer great sandwiches - the tri-tip is a nice lunch. They also have a deli case overflowing with small entrees and fresh salads. Try the cucumber & tomato salad on a hot summer day! read more

We have lived in Bend 11 years and today was the first day trying Country Catering. I thought it was good! I had the Reuben and potato salad. The sandwich was tasty as was the salad...my husband had the tri tip sandwich and although there wasn't a ton of meat on it, it was tasty..the salsa was a refreshing touch on the sandwich. One daughter got the rib plate and the other got a burger. Both dishes looked great and both daughters said everything tasted good. I like the display case with different salads to choose from. Some reviewers said the service wasnt good, but we didnt have that problem! The guy seemed very nice and was patient as it took us forever to decide what to order...we will definitely be back...and will probably try the bbq on the patio in the summer! read more

Since moving to Central Oregon, I've been extremely happy with just about everything ... Except for my inability to find a go-to BBQ joint. I dropped in on a recommendation from the guys at Atlas Cider next door, and soon found myself in brisket Heaven. The sides were also top notch. The void in my BBQ-eating life has been filled. I will be back. Sorry, arteries. read more

We had the roasted chicken family dinner for $23.95. Here's what we thought: The Good: -The chicken was really excellent -the fruit salad was good, but very expensive (bought it as an extra side-- thought they said $5.59, but it was actually $9.59) -the staff was super friendly The Bad: -the potatoes au gratin were very mushy, smelled strange and tasted bad-- it wasn't just the fact that they tasted like they'd been under a heat lamp all day-- they actually had a sour taste -the mac & cheese was... just like the potatoes au gratin! Literally, they looked and tasted very similar-- old, mushy, off tasting. -the cornbread was somewhat tasteless, with a slight hint of old peppers If I could do it again, I'd get the roasted chicken again, with a side of fruit salad and maybe potato salad, since others have said that's good. read more

Great food and fantastic service! I eat here two to three times a week and love it. I would have given five stars if the food consistency was there. For example; one day the BBQ chicken sandwich will have plenty off BBQ sauce and the next it will have very little/ sometimes none. If consistency was there this place would be perfect. Other than that this place is really exceptional! Thank you CC! read more

We had Country Catering cater an event at our home for over 50 people. Cory made the entire experience not only seamless, but delicious! From the ribs to the chicken, the wonderful corn and potato salads, the baked beans (best ever) and all the way to the dessert, everything was beautifully presented and tasted wonderful. Our guests were delighted. Cory was non-intrusive, but present and helpful at the same time. We will definitely use Country Catering for our next event! read more

We swung by Country Catering for a late Saturday lunch. It was a good experience and I expect we'll be back soon. We both had sandwiches. The bbq tri-tip was really tasty and I loved the soft roll it was served on. The sausage special was decent, but was a bit lackluster flavor-wise compared to the tri-tip; my partner ended up slathering it in extra bbq sauce. The sides, as mentioned below, were a small serving, but with the size of the sandwiches made for a filling meal. Being able to choose whatever salad looked good from the deli case was great. I loved the broccoli-bacon salad, my partner's pesto pasta salad was fine, but nothing special. Both indoor and outdoor seating was available, and it was a pleasant place to sit down for a bite. It's a small place both staff and seating-wise, so I am interested to see what the lunch rush looks like. read more

I always get the Thai Chicken Sandwich with sweet peppers and potato salad. It's the best! The sandwiches here are great - any one of them! I crave the sandwiches sometimes and it can be heartbreaking when I can't make it in on a day that I want to. Haha, first wold problems... They have breakfast here too. I haven't made it for breakfast here yet but in my circle it sounds worth it. read more

We were looking for a company to cater our rehearsal dinner for 150 people out in Sunriver. Country Catering was recommended, so we contacted them and were immediately sold. They were an absolute pleasure to work with throughout the entire process and the food was EXCELLENT! We had a tasting before and thought it was wonderful, but it was even better at our event! Our guests could not stop talking about how delicious it was. The set up and service that Country Catering provided on-site was also perfect. We could not have asked for a better rehearsal dinner. We will forever recommend Country Catering to everyone! Thank you, Frank and Cody! read more

One of my most favorite places ever to eat!!! Everytime I come home to visit this is my first stop!! Everything is good and flavorful... I would recommend it to anyone! read more

The quality of the other service behind the counter was good enough. The quality of the food was good but nothing to write home about. But the unprofessional and disrespectful owner made the choice of whether or not to return or recommend an easy, albeit negative decision. read more

Amazing! We needed to feed ten people without a lot of kitchen time so we could all enjoy our time together so we ordered a few family meals. The meat dishes were so tasty and prepared to perfection and the baked beans were off the charts. We will certainly be back for more! Thanks guys! read more

The teriyaki tri tip was so delish! My son loves the Mac and cheese, but what kid doesn't like those funky shaped noodles. The service was great. The staff was very friendly and positive. A little on the pricey side, but worth every penny. read more

It doesn't look like a lot of food, but trust me it is. This place is great when we have family in town and don't want to make large meals. They have great dinner meals that have portion sizes so you know how many people it will feed. Good quality BBQ and a great staff to put it all together. Make sure to call ahead the morning of the day you want to get a family size order because they run out of certain options in the afternoon. read more

Best tri-tip sandwiches I've ever had. The spicy tri-tip it's too die for. The owner is a down to earth guy that is always there to serve and please his guests. An outstanding Bend original. Definitely worth the short drive of the main drag. Don't miss the two for one coupons in the Smart Shopper...It's worth Ten bucks! read more

AMAZING family dinner specials. For $34.95, we got a huge portion of pulled pork, macaroni and cheese, potato salad and garlic bread. Even served a beer on the house while we waited. Service is friendly and efficient. Beats a half-hearted pizza take-out any day of the week. Keep in mind they are closed on Sunday and Monday! read more

I was very very disappointed. It's really nothing special at all. I went in for the all you can eat Friday dinner. They had pulled BBQ meat, & chicken legs $ thighs. It was mostly fat and boned, no meat. Potato salad was warm and tasted like mayo, the beans were way too spicy, the rice (rice with BBQ? Sounds like and extra filler) was very bland and dry. There was flies all over the buffet. Gross. And finally, the service way just downright rude and unwelcoming. When I ordered my food the guy behind the counter asked what I wanted to drink. When I replied, "water" he rolled his eyes, sighed and said, "you have to buy a drink!!". Eek. I'll never be back. read more

We went in friday night with a group that pre arranged dinner and drinks for 30 people. When we got there the owner was very rude to myself and many other people in the group, the teri chix was over sauced both bbq beef flavors were boring, the meat was dry and then when I ordered a my drink I was told "you had to Pay for it " in a very curt manner; beverages were to be provided for the group and paid for by the company all together at the end from my understanding. I paid for it, but I sure didn't need to be treated like that as a paying customer. THEY CLEARLY DIDN'T WANT OUR BUSINESS, AND I'LL OBLIGE THEM. I'LL NEVER GO BACK, NEVER RECOMMEND THEM AND SUGGEST YOU SAVE YOUR TIME AND GO SOMEWHERE YOU'RE WELCOME. read more

The owners are terrible. I think his name is Dick, and her name starts with a B, and that attitude filters down thru the probably otherwise sweet gals that work there. The owners attitude is like, whadda ya want, cant you tell we are busy ? Incredible arrogance. I have watched them several times with disbelief that someone that has been blessed with overwhelming business would treat the customers like this. I hope that he fails miserably and goes down in flames. read more
