About this vendor

Double Down Hospitality is a Chicago-based restaurant group with over a decade of experience building food concepts people genuinely crave — from Detroit-style pizza and wood-fired tacos to full-service dining and event catering across Chicagoland. Every Double Down brand shares one standard: fresh food, real hospitality, and a team that shows up and delivers, every time. That's the foundation everything we do is built on.

Double Down Catering is our dedicated wedding and private event brand within that group — and the reason couples choose us isn't just great food, it's everything we can bring to a single day. We offer full-service catering, with our team handling setup, buffet service, and cleanup from start to finish, plus flexible packages (drop-off, buffet, or full-service staffing) built around your guest count and style. Menus span appetizers, salads, entrées, pastas, sandwiches, and desserts, with vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, and allergy-conscious options available on request.

What makes us different is the range of experiences we bring under one roof. Our Slice Factory Pizza Truck bakes Jumbo hand-tossed and Detroit-style EDGE pizzas fresh on-site — a high-energy favorite for cocktail hour or late-night bites. Our Leñasada Taco Pop-Up serves wood-fired tacos with multiple proteins and toppings for a social, build-your-own experience. Our Burger & Hot Dog Mobile Grill delivers classic, made-to-order comfort food, ideal for rehearsal dinners or casual receptions. And our SideBar mobile bar service brings professional bartenders and tiered drink packages, from beer and wine to custom signature cocktails, with full setup, service, and liquor liability insurance included.

Because it's all one team, you can combine services — dinner catering plus a bar, or a food truck plus late-night snacks — and save with our multi-service bundle pricing, instead of coordinating separate vendors for every part of your day. It's the kind of range that turns a wedding into an experience guests still talk about long after the last slice or cocktail is gone.

Pricing stays transparent, based on guest count, menu, and service style, with no hidden fees. We recommend booking 2-6 weeks out for most events, and as early as possible for weddings, especially during peak season.

Based in Chicago area, we proudly serve weddings, rehearsal dinners, welcome parties, and private events throughout the greater Chicago area — from backyard celebrations to receptions of 300+ guests. Whether it's a formal plated-style dinner, a relaxed taco bar, or a pizza truck rolling in at midnight, Double Down Catering builds the day around your vision, not the other way around.

As one couple put it: "Our guests couldn't stop complimenting the food. The team handled everything with ease so we actually got to enjoy our reception."

Double the flavor. Double the value. Double the experience. Reach out today and let's start building your day.

5 star!!!!

Double Down Catering was fantastic from start to finish! From my first inquiry, Peter was so kind, patient, and helpful. He walked me through every step of the planning process and made sure everything was taken care of for my son’s birthday party.

The team was amazing and truly went above and beyond. They arrived on time, were professional and friendly, and made the whole event feel easy and stress-free. We had more than enough food for everyone, and everything was fresh and absolutely delicious!

Great service, great food, and an incredible team. I would highly recommend Double Down Catering for any birthday, family celebration, or special event!
