Catering

We would like to take this opportunity to introduce you to the catering services that Ciro’s Italian Bistro and Ciro’s Market, located in beautiful downtown Stroudsburg, can provide to you—whether you’re giving a small party for six or a larger event of 200 at your house. We hope you’ll find our food choices to be comprehensive and our prices more than reasonable. Note that this menu can be and should be used as a guideline. We can make any dish any way that you would like and would be happy to quote you for custom menu items. We provide breakfast, lunch, dinner and party nosh catering.

As you’ve come to expect from Ciro’s, all of our food items are prepared with the finest ingredients and made from scratch. All of our cold-cuts are Boar’s Head brand. The excellent reputation for the quality of our food is well deserved whether it’s for an elegant dinner party or a six-foot hero for a Sunday football game.

Should you need it, we can rent tents, china, glassware, tables, etc. for your party as well as set up everything. We can do as little or as much as you want us to. If your idea of a great party is to call and say, "I’m having 100 people over next Saturday for a graduation party." and then sit back and relax—we’re the place for you. Give us a budget and we’ll set up everything, feed your guests, serve them and clean-up. At the end of the party your guests will be impressed by the quality of the food and the professionalism of your "staff".

In-house facilities include an upstairs dining room that can seat 40-60 people depending on arrangement of tables. Our downstairs dining room is also available, but at a higher prices since we would have to shut down the restaurant during your party. The entire restaurant provides seating for 100-120 people in both dining rooms.

For catering orders over $100 and in-house parties, we require a signed contract which will completely describe what food and other facilities we are providing you with and how it is to be prepared. Unless agreed differently in the contract, a 25% deposit is required when you place an order. You can usually cancel your order anytime up to 30 days before an event and receive your full deposit back. This may not apply during heavy catering demand times.

For payment we accept US Dollar travelers checks; Mastercard, VISA, Discover, Carte Blanche, Diner’s Club and American Express credit cards. You can always use a personal check for your deposit but new customers cannot use a check for their final balance. As expected we also accept good old US cash for payment for everything.

We can provide servers and bartenders at your location at the prevailing rate which is currently $10/hour per server or bartender.

Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions or require additional information about our providing food for your event. Our telephone number is (570) 476-CIRO(2476). You can e/MAIL us at sales@cirosbistro.com.

One of the hardest things to do after deciding to have a party and who to invite is how much to feed them. After all, you have to account for Uncle Jimmy (who never met a meal he didn’t like) and Cousin Missy (poor thing, if she doesn’t eat something, she’s going to waste away).
