The Best Catering Sandwiches & Salads in New York City
House-baked semolina bread. Scratch-made everything. Founded by a French Culinary trained chef with two decades in New York's best restaurants. This is catering that tastes like it came from a restaurant — because it did.
There's a reason people call Sandwell the best catering sandwiches in New York City — and it starts with the bread. Every sandwich is built on semolina bread we bake in-house and cold-proof for 24+ hours, giving you that crisp crust and soft, airy crumb that no wholesale bakery delivery can touch. Proteins are baked, never fried. Sauces and dressings are made from scratch. The burrata is whipped in-house. The uncured maple turkey is brined and slow-roasted in our own kitchen. The pesto is nut-free. This isn't catering-grade food dressed up to look good — it's real restaurant food packaged for your event.
Sandwell was founded by Andy Gottlieb, whose fine-dining restaurant pedigree and lifelong passion for perfecting the art of the sandwich shows up in every bite: the technique, the ingredient sourcing, the obsessive attention to how flavors work together. When you order Sandwell catering, you're getting food made by people who actually know how to cook.
Our catering menu covers every format and every dietary need. Curated sandwich box platters — the Greatest Hits Box, the Gameday Box, The Parms Box, The Veggies Box — or build your own with any sandwich on the menu. Family-style salad trays and individual salads. Sides, oatmeal chocolate chip cookies, and house-crafted beverages. Vegan, vegetarian, dairy-free, nut-free, and gluten-free options built into the menu, not bolted on as afterthoughts. We offer gluten-free ciabatta as an alternative for some sandwiches.
We cater for 8 people up to 400 — weddings, birthdays, corporate events, private parties, community gatherings, and everything in between. Delivery and setup available throughout Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, Westchester, and New Jersey. Order catering online at getsandwell.com/cateringdirect.
