Drexel's preferred caterer is Chestnut Street Caterers.

Although all catering orders are coordinated by the event coordinator directly with the caterer, Event Services should be notified of any catering service, delivery or any type of food to be served on campus. Event coordinators may work directly with Catering Managers to develop event-appropriate menus.
