Party trays for a tailgate: sandwiches, pinwheels, cheese and crackers
Party trays for a tailgate are the food that sits on the table all afternoon and feeds everyone who walks up. The Assorted Sandwich Tray, Tortilla Pinwheels and a Cheese & Cracker Tray lead the tailgate menu at Rx Catering NWA. BBQ Pork, hot buffets and dips round it out. Hot entrées come with plates, napkins, cutlery and serving utensils, so the serving gear arrives with the food.
Dessert bar tray, cookies and chocolate-covered strawberries for the tailgate party
The sweet side of a tailgate party at Rx Catering NWA is a Gourmet Cookie Tray, a Dessert Bar Tray, Fruit Trays and chocolate-covered strawberries. Canned sodas cover the drinks. These trays suit a party where guests graze for hours. A Dessert Bar Tray puts several sweets on one platter, which keeps the dessert end of the table simple.
Gluten-free, vegetarian and organic options for a tailgate party
A tailgate party guest list usually includes someone with a dietary need. Rx Catering NWA marks gluten-free hot entrées "GF" on the menu, offers vegetarian entrées, and can source organic ingredients. Montesa Lorene Anne used Rx Catering for a non-profit event in Fayetteville. The October 2025 review reads: "Jay Ramsey, the owner, made sure our specific dietary requests were accommodated, and his crew was so friendly." That review is about a non-profit event, not a tailgate.
Event and party catering beyond the tailgate: holiday, baby shower and non-profit
Event and party catering at Rx Catering NWA covers party trays, holiday catering, custom event catering, non-profit events and baby showers. A Fayetteville host who books a tailgate party in the fall can ask the same kitchen about a holiday gathering in December.
