catering

Tony’s offers Catering availability for a wide range of events. We have catered weddings, business meetings, government functions, Educational workshops and parties of all sizes. Cedar Key offers its Community Center for daily rentals for large parties. This location offers large tables for meetings, a kitchen and plenty of parking.
Tony’s has catered food to the community center many times. Call The City of Cedar Key for leasing details. Tony’s can arrange a menu for catering that will fit your needs. We typically can supply large platters of cold foods such as Shrimp or Chicken Salad Sandwiches. We also provide fresh cut fruit and vegetable trays.  A favorite is our large platter of garden fresh salad with all the toppings, just like our salads we serve in the restaurant.
One of our most popular catered items is our famous Cedar Key Clam Chowder. Everybody loves our Chowder and it’s a must for any special event you may be having. Contact us for details about bringing Tony’s Chowder to your special event. We can supply a limited seafood entrée for catering. We do not recommend pre-frying seafood’s and holding in warming trays.
If you’re interested in fried seafood’s for your event we suggest you check out our Concession Trailer link on the home page. The concession Trailer is fully equipped to offer fried seafood as well as chowder and all the sides. Tony’s recommends steamed seafood’s for catering such as our dinner item The Low Boil, which consists of fresh steamed Blue Crabs, shrimp, Cedar Key Farm Raised Clams, Corn on the cob, red potato’s and smoked sausage, steamed fresh and served in a clam net bag. Other suggestions might be steamed Blue Crabs, Clams or steamed shrimp. Contact us via e-mail or call the Restaurant Manager and we can provide you with the options and the costs.

Seasonal dinner hours could vary during the weekdays (Monday thru Thursday). We request that you please call ahead to verify our closing hour.
