Oktoberfest Catering Menu

Oktoberfest Food

Oktoberfest may be a 16-day German tradition, but here in the U.S., we’ve fully embraced the bratwurst, brews, and Bavarian cheer! At Lee n’ Eddies, we’ve catered eine Menge (that’s “a whole lot” in German) of Oktoberfest parties, so we know a thing or two about throwing a good one. Whether you’re going big with full-service or keeping it casual with drop-off catering, we’re here with festive ideas to make your Oktoberfest planning wunderbar!

Our Oktoberfest menu is packed with crowd-pleasing favorites like fried or herb-baked chicken, brats with sauerkraut, and tender roast pork loin with fresh sliced potatoes. Add in warm German potato salad, pretzel bites with mustard sauce, German-style green beans, and boneless wings with plenty of dipping sauces, and you’ve got a feast worthy of a stein-raising celebration. Don’t forget the apple crisp for a sweet finish, because every good party needs dessert!
