Holiday Without the Hassle: The Stand Makes Catering Easy

Who says holiday gatherings have to revolve around turkey, stuffing and hours spent in the kitchen? This season, The Stand is taking the hassle out of holiday catering with crowd-pleasing options for every occasion. From office celebrations or employee luncheons to Friendsgiving and family get-togethers, The Stand makes it easy to serve great food without the stress of cooking.

Known for its elevated take on American comfort food, The Stand offers a variety of catering options, including build-your-own burger or hot dog bars, BBQ brisket and short rib grilled cheese sandwiches, signature sandwich and wrap platters, fresh salads and sides like grilled meyer lemon broccolini or flash-fried green beans topped with crispy onion strings. For something sweet, brownie and cookie platters offer an easy way to finish off the celebration.

“Holiday gatherings should be about enjoying the people around you, not spending the entire day worrying about cooking the food,” said Zachary Wishengrad, vice president of The Stand. “Whether you're feeding 10 people at the office or hosting a Friendsgiving at home, we want to make it easy to serve great-tasting food that everyone will actually be excited to eat, without the stress or expense of preparing it yourself.”

For Friendsgiving celebrations, The Stand also makes it easy to show up with something to share. Instead of preparing an entire dish from scratch, guests can bring a sandwich platter, large fresh salad bowls or flavorful sides to a potluck-style gathering. For workplace celebrations, individual boxed meals and convenient group ordering on The Stand app allow guests to select their own meals through a shared link, accommodating a variety of tastes and preferences.

To celebrate the holiday season, The Stand is offering $25 off catering orders of $250 or more with promo code FRIENDSGIVING at online checkout. First-time catering customers can also receive 15% off orders of $150 or more with promo code FIRST15, up to $100 off. Catering is available all across California, for delivery directly to homes, offices and other gathering locations.

Founded in 2003 by Murray Wishengrad in Encino, California, The Stand has grown into a dining destination known for quality ingredients, inventive menu offerings and approachable prices. With 23 locations across California and Texas, The Stand continues to put its own spin on classic American favorite foods while making everyday meals or catered celebrations convenient and delicious.
