What your membership actually gets you.

Not a course. Not a Facebook group. Circle is the operating system for a catering business — the logistics, the people and the pricing you can't get alone.

Catering Delivery

Catering Delivery

Insulated, on-time delivery handled for you at member pricing. Quote it in seconds with the delivery calculator, then send it straight to invoicing.

  • Transparent per-order pricing
  • Coverage across the metro
  • Live request tracking
Setup & Service

Setup & Service

Trained staff who set the buffet, run the line, and break down after — so you can take the corporate order you'd normally turn away.

  • Buffet and station setup
  • Front-of-house support
  • Equipment and chafing

Chef Concierge

One request, and we route you to the right vetted partner: packaging, drivers, staffing, insurance, branding, licensing and more.

  • 14+ partner categories
  • Pre-negotiated member terms
  • Real humans, same-day replies
Partner Perks

Partner Perks

Member-only pricing with the suppliers you already buy from, plus workshops and playbooks from operators running real kitchens.

  • Discounted supplies and packaging
  • Monthly workshops
  • Peer community of operators

Everything above, $99 per month.

Cancel any time. Most chefs cover it on their first catering order.

Why it costs $99

Because free advice never delivered a single tray.

01

It pays for itself in one order

A single catering job routed through member delivery and setup typically covers the month — before the margin on the food itself.

02

You stop being the whole company

Delivery, staffing and packaging stop being your job. You cook. We handle everything between the kitchen and the table.

03

You get the work, not just the tools

Circle is where our buying team finds chefs. Being visible and consistent inside it is how chefs become Preferred.

Preferred Chef

The shortlist we buy from first.

Preferred Chef isn't a badge — it's a working relationship. We send you real catering orders with the payout agreed up front, you cook, and you get paid on a monthly statement. Chefs earn it through consistency inside BRDGE Circle.

  • First call on catering orders we're buying
  • Agreed payouts locked in before you cook
  • Monthly statements and clean invoicing
  • Your own portal for packages and events
  • Featured to clients as a vetted BRDGE chef
  • Direct line to the BRDGE buying team
