When it comes to fueling a productive meeting or celebrating a milestone, you need satisfying, energizing and exciting food. Order Gyro Shack! We offer the perfect solution for fresh, flavorful, and unforgettable catering here at Gyro Shack that is miles beyond the mundane.

Mediterranean catering has exploded in popularity because it’s universally loved, inherently health-conscious, and easily caters to diverse dietary needs. At Gyro Shack, we take the guesswork out of feeding a crowd with options designed for a variety of dietary needs. Whether planning a quick boardroom meal or a large holiday party, this guide provides the essential tips for planning a successful office lunch or a spectacular larger event catering using the most delicious Greek cuisine available.

Why Choose Gyro Shack for Your Next Office Lunch?

The food you serve at a corporate event sets the tone. Our Mediterranean catering is innovative, designed to keep your team engaged, energized, and appreciative.

Health & Energy: Fueling Productivity

Unlike heavy, fried, or overly rich foods that cause a post-lunch slump, our Mediterranean catering energizes the team. Rooted in lean protein (our signature Gyro Meat and Chicken), healthy fats, fresh vegetables, and grains (like Lemon Rice), our food fuels productivity rather than drains it. Choosing catering for Gyro Shack is a choice for wellness.

Variety & Customization for Every Palate

One of the most significant challenges in office event catering is accommodating everyone’s preferences. Gyro Shack offers options that solve this problem effortlessly:

  • Build-Your-Own Gyro Buffet: Our buffets—like the popular Zeus’s Feast, Apollo’s Celebration, or Athena’s Gala—allow every person to customize their plate, ensuring maximum satisfaction. They can choose their protein and pile on their favorite fresh toppings.
  • Individual Box Lunches: Our individually packaged Box Lunches are mess-free and efficient for quick meetings or on-the-go teams. Options range from the Standard Gyro (Original, Spicy, or Deluxe style) with chips to the Premium Boxed Lunch with a side (Hummus & Pita or Tzatziki & Pita) and a dessert.

Dietary Friendliness Made Easy

Mediterranean catering is naturally inclusive. When ordering catering for Gyro Shack, you can confidently accommodate most dietary restrictions without complex separate menus:

  • Vegetarian/Vegan: Our delicious Falafel Fritters and hearty Greek Salad (or Vegan Greek Salad Boxed Lunch) make great plant-based options.
  • Gluten-Free: Options like our customizable Rice Bowls and naturally Gluten-Free chips simplify ordering for those avoiding gluten.
  • Dairy-Free: Many of our components, like Falafel and Lemon Rice, are dairy-free. Simply request sauces (like the Red Spicy Sauce) or enjoy hummus instead of our signature Tzatziki.

Tip 1: Matching Your Gyro Shack Menu to Your Event Type

Choosing the proper presentation style for the occasion is key to excellent event catering. Catering for Gyro Shack offers versatile options for every environment.

For the Quick Office Meeting: The Box Lunch

When your team needs a fast, simple, and neat lunch, the Box Lunch is your answer.

  • Best for: Board meetings, training seminars, small working lunches, or on-site delivery to different departments.
  • Why it works: Everything is individually packaged, minimizing cross-contamination, speeding up the serving process, and providing a defined portion. You simply hand them out—no line, no fuss.

For the Larger Team Event: The Build-Your-Own Gyro Buffet

If you’re hosting a team-building lunch, client appreciation event, or casual company party, the buffet style elevates the experience.

  • Best for: Larger groups (our buffets start at a 10-serving minimum), social gatherings, or events where you want food to be an interactive centerpiece.
  • Why it works: The Build-Your-Own Gyro Buffet is fun and interactive. Guests select from our famous spit-roasted Gyro Meat, Grilled Chicken, or crispy Falafel, and then customize their pita with fresh toppings, Tzatziki, Feta, and Red Spicy Sauce. Our complete packages like the Zeus’s Feast include all the fixings, sides (Lemon Rice, Greek Salad), and even dessert, transforming your simple lunch into a Greek culinary adventure.

For Full-Scale Event Catering: All-Inclusive Packages

Our comprehensive catering packages provide a complete meal for larger, formal events—whether it’s a company holiday party or even a wedding. These options simplify logistics by bundling our best offerings, from appetizer to dessert, ensuring you have enough food and variety for a whole house.
