Catering That Delivers - In Every Sense!
NC
Service area
Tin Kitchen started as a bold idea on four wheels—a food truck with a serious passion for flavor. Back in 2010, we hit the streets with globally inspired street food and a mission to bring something new to Charlotte’s growing culinary scene. What started as a small operation quickly grew into a local staple, helping spark the city’s food truck movement and earning a loyal following along the way.
Today, Tin Kitchen Catering is a full-service catering company trusted by clients across the Charlotte area for everything from casual lunches to high-profile weddings. While our food truck roots taught us how to move fast and serve people well, our catering operation allows us to connect deeper—to craft menus with intention, plan every detail, and create food experiences that people remember.

I’ve hired Tin Kitchen for several personal events, but most recently, they catered our wedding, and I couldn’t be more thrilled with their service! Tin Kitchen will always be my g...
o-to caterer because their food is not only delicious but also reasonably priced. For our wedding, we had the mac and cheese balls during the cocktail hour, and they were a huge hit—our guests couldn't get enough of them!
I only wish we could have tried more of their amazing food, but we had a set limit for the wedding. Nonetheless, everything we had was fantastic! I absolutely love Tin Kitchen and will definitely be hiring them again soon for my housewarming. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for incredible food and a great catering experience!

The FOOD was amazing! We did the taco Buffett and people raved about it. Definitely a step up from just basic tacos and didn’t come across as “cheap” we did a tasting as well after...
we booked and they made it such a fun experience. The appetizers were also all amazing! We had crab cakes, lamb meatballs, and crostinis! Staff was also so nice( we had bartenders and wait staff) and bartenders crushed the drinks!

There are not enough good words to do justice to the amazing job Diana Anthony, with Tin Kitchen, did in the catering of my daughter's wedding on May 29, 2022 at Morning Glory Farm...
. Her advice during the planning process and the tasting was so valuable and appreciated and gave me every confidence needed to select them for our caterer. Every menu item we tasted was unbelievable and made us that much more excited to share with our guests. The meal and the service provided during the reception by Tin Kitchen was exceptional and many of our guests have commented on how delicious everything tasted. I have to admit, I don't often find the food at wedding receptions to be memorable but our guests have made so many comments throughout this week about how much they enjoyed the appetizers and the meal. I have already recommended them to other families that are also in the wedding planning season! So thankful for the entire team! Lisa Clarke

Wow we are so glad we went with the Tin Kitchen for our reception! The food was incredible and putting the menu together was easy since we went with the unlimited option, tons of ...
vegetarian options and easy vegan selections. We also had the wonderful staff help cut and serve our cake and rented all our plates, glasses, and silverware from them. They set the tables and put up the drink station efficiently and smoothly during the ceremony just as we wanted and without needing any direction from us. The Tin Kitchen went above and beyond to answer questions before the wedding and make it as easy and smooth and delicious as possibly :) Thanks so much!
