The height of wedding season is upon us! Once you have your wedding planned and your rehearsal dinner booked (which Benchmarc Events also loves to do!), the last piece of the puzzle is usually the day after brunch.  

We offer a wide array of options for all budgets, from drop-off catering to in-house private parties in one of our restaurants.  Take the stress and effort out of it (and alleviate your morning after hangover) and contact us to take care of all the details!

Nothin’ like our egg + cheese sandwiches to soak up last night’s alcohol!

Our fresh fruit salad is great for detoxing after a long night…

Landmarc Time Warner Center is a great venue for post-wedding brunch!

Ready for summer in the Hamptons, but not quite ready to let go of your favorite NYC restaurants? Benchmarc Events will come to you with delicious and relaxed menus that are perfect for summer. Our lobster bakes are especially festive for summer at the beach.

Contact us today and let us do all the work, while you relax and imbibe beachside!

May is here and the sun is finally shining, which can only mean one thing…Cinco de Mayo time! Today we’ve got some creative ideas to help spice up your Cinco party this year. 

Taco Station - set up a make-your-own taco bar with tortillas, various proteins, and all sorts of toppings. Serve it up on the grill for an outdoor twist!

Dip It Good - we love good ol’ guacamole, but why not switch it up with other authentic dips and sauces, too? We love queso and pico de gallo.  

Gettin’ Corny - Nothing says summer like corn on the cob. Make it Mexican by grilling the corn and topping it with cotija cheese and spices. 

Crunchy ‘n Crispy - Take a walk on the wild side and stray from the traditional taco. Serve crispy tortillas with refried or pureed black beans, cotija cheese and lots of crisp lettuce. 

Show your employees that their hard work hasn’t gone unnoticed with an office delivery of our impressive charcuterie and cheese platters. Really want to win them over? How about a sweet ending of chocolate covered strawberries? Your employees will be smiling for days and maybe you’ll get more than a coffee mug for Christmas this year.

Yesterday Benchmarc Restaurants and Benchmarc Events hosted its annual Employee Appreciation party at Ditch Plains UWS. It’s become a great tradition for staff to get together and feel the love for all the great work everyone puts in year round. Check out the pictures from our Hawaiian luau theme party below!

Contact us today to plan your own employee apprection party, whether in-house at one of our restaurants or through drop-off catering at your own venue. 

There’s nothing like having good food and family around to celebrate that special lady in your life! Treat your mom to a Mother’s Day brunch with your family and friends in one of our private spaces at Landmarc Tribeca or Time Warner Center.

See some of our favorite ideas for brunch in the pictures below. We can even help to arrange flowers from one of our favorite vendors. Contact us today to make your mom’s day extra special!

What’s better in the summer than fresh fish and a summery cocktail? Plan your next fish fiesta with Benchmarc Events and we’ll make sure you feel like you’ve set sail!

Our raw bar with lobster tail, oysters, and poached shrimp is a great crowd pleaser. Or a ceviche is always welcome in the warm summer months – try our snapper ceviche with chili lime popcorn as a passed hors d’oeuvre. Cool off with any of our signature cocktails like our PM Kick.

With spring weather finally catching up to our calendar, we are all loving this sunny weather.  After spending the week mostly indoors at our desks, who doesn’t want to spend as much time as possible outside. 

Why not have us help you cater an outdoor event with all your friends to celebrate this amazing weather? We can set up full service catered events or can prepare an awesome drop-off spread for you to enjoy in the fresh spring air. Contact us today to start planning your next event al fresco!

Shower season is upon us - bridal and baby showers that is! Tea service is a dainty and traditional shower option, but why not depart from the norm with a fun cocktail reception?

For baby showers, design a signature cocktail that can easily transform into a cocktail to keep everyone happy. Passionfruit tea with fresh mint is a refreshing choice for spring. Easily spruce it up with some rum, if desired!

Contact us today to help you create a festive reception menu in any of our restaurants or bring it to your own venue.

Passionfruit tea cocktails put a twist on the traditional tea service at bridal or baby showers!

Dessert so often gets overlooked at events in lieu of all the other delicious menu offerings. At Benchmarc Events we like to look outside box, the cake box that is, and come up with fun and tasty desserts for our events. Here are some of the things we have done in the past that our guests have loved!

Set up a dessert bar with cotton candy, brownies, lemon tarts, crème brulée and more! There is something for every type of sweet tooth here.

Less is more. Let guests have lots of mini desserts (passed or stationary) to choose from!

Make dessert interactive. For one guest we set up a top-your-own cupcake bar. Fun for kids and adults!
