About

Dishes inspired by the bountiful Pacific Northwest, sourced locally and executed thoughtfully.

The Hive Catering Co. is a full-service catering company providing scratch-made meals cooked onsite - including at remote locations and venues that lack kitchens throughout the Willamette Valley. Because quality is at the forefront of our mission, we serve dishes made with locally sourced ingredients.

Our team can accommodate service styles including stationary food displays, family-style meals, formal plated dinners, and displayed and passed hors d’oeuvres for weddings, corporate and non-profit events. We serve intimate occasions to large gatherings for private parties and public events in Portland and the surrounding area.

Fantastic and creative

We really enjoyed working with Hive and their entire team for our wedding. The process from setting up tastings, curating menu, customizing dishes and cocktails/drinks menu, to the presentation and quality of food was top notch. We worked with Rachel at the Hive and she was amazing to work with, very responsive and eager to answer any questions we had before we decided to sign a contract. One thing we enjoyed with Hive was the flexibility in the menu selection to meet our needs and stay within an assigned budget. The quality of the food Hive produces in large quantity and their presentation is second to none. We had many guests compliment the food and the quality was the same as the tasting we had done months prior to the wedding. This shows that these guys consistently create incredible food that taste good and looks aesthetically pleasing. Their mixologist had great recommendation for cocktail choices and were able to take our preferences and create unique signature cocktail that were a crowd pleaser.

I do have to give a huge shout out to their chef and Rachel for curating an Indo-western fusion menu for Indian events we did during out wedding weekend. During our first tasting, the chef learnt that I had an East-Indian background and created a shrimp/grits appetizer with some Indian spices that was incredible. Since my wife and I struggled with finding good catering for India food in the area, we had the idea to see if Hive and the team there would be open to creating an Indo-western fusion menu using popular Indian dishes as references. This was a big challenge we presented for Hive and they exceeded our expectation. While we expected some resistance, instead we were surprised how excited Rachel and the Chef at Hive were to work with us on an Indian menu using references I had shared and while adding their own take to things. Even during the tasting, the chef was interested in my feedback and took notes. The final result was incredible, and the food was a massive crowd pleaser. We had family from India visiting, some of whom run Indian restaurants and really enjoyed the food and were surprised that it was put together by the team at Hive which has never done Indian food before. All the meats were of high quality and tender and the flavors were right on point. They even had charcoal burning in the middle of some dishes to add the aroma and flavors we expect from restaurants in India. Overall, I am very grateful for selecting the Hive and thankful to the Chef. I would HIGHLY recommend the Hive for events and wedding.

Creative and delicious

engagement, admiration for the beauty of the pacific northwest, and our voracious appetites for gourmet food! We had the benefit of a full tasting menu several months beforehand so were giddy with excitement for our guests to be in for such a treat on our wedding day. We still have friends talking about the food even a month later!
