Let’s build the event of your dreams.

Ruby’s Catering is an extension of our beloved Ruby’s West End, a neighborhood brunch spot and café that became known for its welcoming spirit and vintage-chic charm. Though the café has since closed, its heart lives on in every event we create.

At Ruby’s, hospitality is at the center of everything we do. Our eclectic style is anchored in mismatched settings and hand-selected linens, thoughtfully chosen to create the most comfortable, lived-in vibe — the kind that makes every guest feel like family.

Whether it’s a wedding, milestone celebration, or intimate gathering, we bring the same warmth, creativity, and community-focused spirit that made Ruby’s West End so special. Our catering team pairs that energy with professional planning, seamless coordination, and menus built on fresh, local flavors.

Ruby’s isn’t just about food — it’s about making every event feel personal, beautiful, and memorable.

REVIEWS

“I loved this place! What a cozy cafe to visit on a wintery December morning. Such a cute, inviting, rustic atmosphere--from the antique tablecloths to the vintage China. I ordered French toast with chocolate chips and walnuts. I'm not exaggerating when I say it was one of the most memorable French toasts I've eaten. It had a nice crisp but also managed to melt in my mouth. Thank you for such a sweet experience!” - Moriah J.

It doesn't get better than Ruby's -- a go-to spot for authentic and absolutely delicious food for all occasions. The space is comfortable and casual with so much character, and every member of the staff is truly wonderful. We were lucky enough to have Ruby's cater our wedding and could not have been happier with how it all went. Corrinna and each member of her team were kind, thorough, and truly went above and beyond. I can't even count how many people told us that our food was the best food they've ever had at a wedding, hands down. You've gotta love Ruby's!! - Alexandra F.

“We were visiting Portland for a wedding and Ruby's was recommended by a local. What a find. It is off the beaten path so you have to know about it. The day after the wedding a group gathered here for brunch. The food was delicious. The menu is limited but everything the group had was outstanding. The portions are appropriately sized and not overwhelming as many restaurants try to do to make up for their uninspired offerings. It was so good we returned for dinner. Had Coho salmon with collard greens of all things. Being southerners we couldn't believe anyone would offer them in Maine and they were excellent as was the salmon. We give Ruby's our highest recommendation.” - Charles E.
