From our kitchen to your venue

Every menu is prepared by our chefs in our production kitchen at 74 Hunter Street, Stuart, then finished on site. We cater from Magnetic Island to Longreach, and where a venue has no power, we bring gas ovens. Visits to the kitchen are by appointment.

Food is freshly prepared, using seasonal and local North Queensland produce wherever practical. Gluten-free, vegetarian, vegan and allergy requirements are planned from the quote to the plate.

One team for the whole event

We can deliver a platter to your boardroom or run a full event: menu, chefs, wait staff, a fully licensed bar with RSA-qualified staff, styling, equipment and on-the-day coordination. We cater for intimate dinners through to major events of up to 5,000 guests.

Michels also runs Michels Meals: chef-prepared meals for home, work and supported living, including NDIS and Support at Home options. They're low in salt, with no added sugar or preservatives. We also run the café and bar at the Townsville Civic Theatre.
