Experience The Capers Difference
Unique And Diverse Experience For Every Occasion
Local. Fresh. Sustainable.
We specialize in featuring locally sourced food and have been doing “farm to table” since 1991. Our catering team is always on a mission to find the most interesting, unique, small batch food products available in Oregon.
Vegan & gluten-free Friendly
We strive to have options for everyone, especially when it comes to dietary restrictions. Whether it be gluten free or vegan, we do it all!
CULTURALLY INSPIRED & DIVERSE
Our menus reflect a wide range of cuisines including Yap, Mexican, Italian, French, Southern, Greek, Thai, Creole, Filipino and PNW inspired.
MADE FROM SCRATCH, MADE TO ORDER
We are relentlessly committed to high standards and fresh food by following our protocol: made from scratch, made to order.
Farm To Table, Sustainably Sourced
We are local, always. We work closely with our local vendors to obtain fresh, seasonal and unique ingredients.
Flexible. Customizable. Memorable.
We are different from others in that we aren’t afraid to try something new. We are proud of our top-quality operations and staff who put extra attention into every detail. We go to great lengths to ensure our clients are happy – we recently secured a rabbi to bless Kosher-prepared food, so our clients would feel comfortable.
PLANNING & COORDINATION
You dream it, we create it. From sit down family style to buffet or even use of our food truck, we are flexible.
EXPERIENCED & TENURED STAFF
Our company is comprised of passionate and fully certified staff who are ready to make your event memorable.
SECRET WINE ROOM & EVENT SPACE
The secret wine room is perfect for a wine dinner, tasting, modern company meeting, romantic date or a fun friends night.
YOUR IMAGINATION IS THE LIMIT
We are always looking for the next trend, creating out of the box dishes and providing that “wow” factor for guests.

What People are Saying
“Superior and Amazing”
“I have witnessed and experienced their incredible dedication to superior food and amazing customers service for over 15 years. There was never a job too big or too small for them to handle. They worked closely with individuals in planning and executing, oftentimes squeezing as tightly as possible to make an event work, oftentimes with limited budgets. You wouldn’t have known it when you saw the outcome – especially in the deliciousness of the food , the presentation and service. “
