We are still offering our entire catering by the tray menu as well but ask for a two day advance notice on any of these orders.
This new menu we are offering exclusively out of our Hamilton Inn location with hopes of offering the same at our Michael’s location sometime soon and put even more of our employees back to work.
We continue to be humbled and deeply moved by the support from all of the surrounding communities and are very anxious to serve you!
