Chef McLaren retired from the world of restaurants because he just loves throwing parties so much. (Probably. I mean, it’s likely, right?) A Red Seal chef, he’s best for medium sized dinner parties – eight to 16 guests is his range for plated private dinner parties. Chef McLaren customizes your menu based on whether you want four or seven courses. Then, he does All. The. Work. While you take the majority of the credit. And most of the wine.
If you want to host a private dinner party but don’t have space at your own home (or just don’t feel like cleaning your house), the Yellowhead Brewing Co. space is ideal. They do onsite catering for private parties. The Yellowhead Room is super cute for bigger parties, with exposed brick walls and pretty lights. The Tasting Room is perfect for intimate dinner parties of about 10 to 12 guests. And, you can add a brewery tour before or after your party to entertain your guests.
