Why Training Professionals Choose Jakeeno’s Workshop Catering

Built for All-Day Learning Events

Training seminars and workshops demand more from catering than quick meetings. Your participants need sustained energy through morning sessions, engaging lunch breaks that refresh without overwhelming, and afternoon options that combat the post-lunch slump. Our 50 years of catering experience means we understand the rhythm of learning events and how to fuel them effectively.

Reliable Timing for Structured Agendas

Training schedules run on precision. When your agenda calls for lunch at 12:30 between your morning module and afternoon breakout sessions, we deliver at 12:30 not 12:45 when participants are already losing focus. Our family-owned commitment to reliability means your training stays on track while participants stay satisfied.

Crowd-Pleasing Options for Diverse Groups

Training events bring together participants with different dietary preferences, restrictions, and tastes. Our extensive menu of authentic Italian dishes from classic pizzas to house-made pasta and fresh salads, ensures every participant finds something they’ll genuinely enjoy, not just tolerate. 

Professional Presentation for Professional Events

Your training materials look polished. Your venue is professional. Your catering should match that standard. Everything arrives hot, professionally packaged, and presentation-ready so you can focus on facilitating learning, not managing food logistics.

What Makes Jakeeno’s Different for Training Events

50 Years of Minneapolis Catering Experience

We’ve served three generations of Minneapolis learners, trainers, and organizations. Our longevity isn’t luck – it’s the result of consistent quality, reliable service, and authentic food that people genuinely enjoy.

Family-Owned Means Personal Accountability

We’re not a corporate catering chain with rotating management. Patty and Amy Keegan personally oversee operations, ensuring that your training catering receives the same care they’d provide their own family. When something matters, family-owned makes a difference.

Real Italian Recipes, Real Difference

Your training content is carefully crafted. Our food is too. Our sauces simmer for hours using recipes handed down through three generations. Our pizza dough is made fresh. The difference between authentic Italian food and generic “training catering” is significant – and your participants will taste it.

Women-Owned, Community-Focused

As a women-owned business deeply rooted in South Minneapolis for nearly 50 years, we bring the same values to your training event that we bring to our community: reliability, quality, and genuine care for the people we serve.

Consistent Quality Across All Orders

Whether you’re ordering for a 10-person technical workshop or a 200-person conference training day, you receive the same carefully prepared, authentic Italian food. Our quality doesn’t scale down for smaller groups or suffer when serving larger ones.

Training Seminar & Workshop Catering FAQs

What’s the minimum and maximum group size you can serve?
We cater training events from intimate 10-person workshops to large 200-person seminars. Our menu and packaging scale efficiently for any training group size.

Absolutely. We regularly serve multi-day training events and can help you plan varied menus across multiple days to prevent “training food fatigue.” Contact us to discuss your multi-day program needs.

Yes. We provide drop-off catering service throughout Minneapolis. Share your training venue location when ordering, and we’ll coordinate delivery logistics.

Can I set up a recurring order for regular training programs?
Yes. If you conduct regular training sessions—weekly skills workshops, monthly professional development, or quarterly certification courses—we can establish a recurring catering arrangement. Contact us to discuss your ongoing training catering needs
