Individually Wrapped Boxed Lunches for Chicago Offices
As life approaches normalcy and businesses start to reopen in Chicago, meals are a great way to celebrate. Office catering is a popular solution for welcoming employees back during these weird times, but safety and hygiene are of utmost importance.
Individually boxed meals have become a new normal during the pandemic. Especially if you haven't catered since COVID started, you're probably wondering how to most easily order individually wrapped meals. Here at CaterCow, we do the hard work of vetting the best individually packaged meals in Chicago. For every restaurant, we take photos of the food and how it comes delivered and taste test the meals. If a restaurant was catering buffet style in the past, we work with them to curate an individually boxed alternative so you don't have to worry if it'll come the way you want.

CaterCow Does Individually Wrapped Meals the Right Way
Thoughtfully Crafted Individually Boxed Menus
Curating individually packaged meals is not as easy as one may think. If a restaurant was catering a buffet with a choice of 3 entrees and 3 sides, they'll now need to tailor a special menu for individual style that will likely accommodate less selections per meal.
Furthermore, restaurants will need to be more mindful of mixing hot and cold in one container. They'll also need to package meals in a way that isn't overly wasteful for the environment's sake and to minimize costs. At CaterCow, we work with our restaurants to craft menus that work for everyone.
Easily Searchable High Quality Individually Packaged Meals
Individually boxed meals are a unique category of its own. Unlike other services, we don't lump the individually wrapped meals in the same menu as the buffet just because it's from the same restaurant. We've all seen menus where it says a $50 tray of chicken is “Individually Wrapped Optional”...whatever that means!
We also take photos of every single individually boxed menu in its actual packaging, not on fine china, so you know what you'll get during your delivery.
Individuals Can Group Order
If Sally wants chicken, and John wants beef, teammates can choose what they want. Meals come delivered individually packaged labeled with people's names.
You can also add extras for guests. This saves the hassle of guessing the headcount and what people want to eat!
COVID Safe Precautions
You're likely ordering individually packaged for safety concerns to minimize sharing and contamination. Rest assured our kitchens are doing their part in keeping things as safe as possible.
Temperature checks, elevated cleaning, and mandating employee vaccination are just some of the many heightened procedures to make sure everyone stays healthy.
Catering Your Way
Whether you like to do everything yourself, get your team involved or would rather we took care of things for you, CaterCow has you covered.
Managed Catering
If you order catering frequently and would prefer for us to handle menu selection, we can set you up with a dedicated account manager.

Our staff was thoroughly impressed! All the individual orders arrived with names on them. No one had to remember what they ordered! This was such an easy way for people to order what they want. The driver gave me a call to let me know that there was a bit of a line at the security desk for check in, but that he was on his way. Super nice and friendly. Thank you guys! We will definitely be ordering from Lil Greek again!

The food itself from Pockets had all of our residents talking about them and asking where they were from! The Southwest Chicken was a fan-favorite for sure. Using CaterCow was incredibly seamless, their communication is top-notch! This was my first order, but we ordered from them again for an event today and they are so attentive to any question I had. I know I'll be using them again in the future.

To be transparent, I was very worried about the CaterCow group order function. After learning about it and giving it a chance, this component of CaterCow will become a keystone in my administrative capacity for meetings moving forward. I feel the need to share it as a resource with other lines of business and administrative teams that I know. The service and the restaurant alleviated a lot of my stress in planning around an important team meeting today. I cannot emphasize the amount of relief I felt when I realized that the meals had each been already pre-labeled with everyone's name (a task I had done myself for years every time we had a large enough function to cater food). If you are looking for yummy, healthy, vibrant options for workplace meals, please consider using CaterCow and consider Mixteco. The food was delicious. My team was very tired of having sandwiches for every meal and given that the pandemic had now prompted us with the possibility to work remote every day, I knew I needed to incentivize my team for coming in during the week. They have loved every gathering we have planned since I discovered the site. As an Executive Assistant who is constantly juggling 3 tasks at once, I appreciate it so much. Jorge, the delivery person was also super friendly and helpful with the delivery from Mixteco.
