Profile of Us       

Becket and Burke Catering provides exceptional catering services throughout Delaware and the outlying communities. Our services are sought out in New Jersey, Maryland, the Chesapeake Bay areas, and the southern regions of Pennsylvania.  In July of 1988, the two hoteliers, Sean Becket Warner and John Burke Naylor, saw great opportunity in the New Castle County area for quality catering service with fair prices.  Becket and Burke Catering developed their long held dream, and embarked on an exciting business venture.  They found success by offering sophisticated food and excellent personalized service at reasonable prices.
