At Island Time Catering, we’re not just here to feed the crowd. We’re here to raise the bar on what catering can be.
Too often, catered food means low-grade ingredients, mass-produced food, soggy trays, and flavorless filler. Not us. We believe casual catering should still be real food, made from scratch, and served with pride. That’s why everything we cook is made with intention—and without the junk. Whether it’s corporate catering, a backyard BBQ, or a casual buffet, we serve every event with passion and a dedication to clean ingredients, prepared fresh.
Seed Oil Free Catering? You bet.
You won’t find industrial seed oils in our kitchen. No canola. No soybean. No corn oil. Why? Because those oils don’t belong in food that’s meant to nourish and bring people together. We use real fats—like coconut oil, avocado oil, beef tallow, and olive oil—supporting both flavor and wellness.
From low and slow slow-smoked grass-fed beef brisket to grilled shrimp, sauteed veggies, scratch-made sauces, or house-baked desserts, every dish we serve is crafted with clean, quality ingredients that we’re proud to put our name on.
This Is Elevated Casual Catering
Our approach is simple: deliver laid-back catering experiences that still feel next-level. That means:
- Beautifully presented buffets
- Flavorful menus make with top-shelf ingredients
- Fresh-prepped everything
- Friendly, professional service
- No compromise on quality
From backyard BBQs to beachside weddings, office lunches to rehearsal dinners, we bring restaurant-level food to the most relaxed of settings. It’s catering that’s fun, unfussy, and ridiculously good.
Why It Matters
We started Island Time Catering because we saw a gap in the market—between ultra-formal caterers and corner-cutting drop-offs. We wanted to serve events that felt fun, memorable, and real. Food that guests remember. Menus that reflect how people actually want to eat.
And in today’s world, more and more folks are looking for options free from seed oils, artificial preservatives, and overly processed junk. We’re proud to be one of the few seed oil–free catering companies doing it right and the only Seed Oil Scout verified restaurant in Rhode Island!
