Catering Services in Howrah & Dum Dum — Bengali, Wedding & Birthday Catering from ₹777/Plate

Catering Across Howrah — Shibpur, Bally, Belur & Salkia

Howrah sits just across the Hooghly from us, joined to central Kolkata by the Howrah Bridge (Rabindra Setu) and Vidyasagar Setu. That short crossing means our catering service in Howrah doesn't lose any heat or freshness on the way — our team plans the route, the load-out time, and the on-site setup so food reaches your venue hot and ready.

We regularly cater across Shibpur, home to the Acharya Jagadish Chandra Bose Indian Botanic Garden and IIEST. We also cover Belur, near Belur Math, and Bally, the northernmost part of Howrah connected to Dakshineswar via the Vivekananda Setu. Closer to the station, we serve Salkia — the Aurobindo Road and Haragunge Bazaar belt — and the wider Howrah Maidan area.

Here's the thing about catering across the river: logistics make or break the meal. A Bengali wedding menu with Bhetki Paturi and Chingri Malaikari has to arrive plated-ready, not half-cooked in a van stuck on the bridge. That's why we build in buffer time for Howrah events and finish delicate items — fish fry, live counters, desserts — on site. It's a small detail. But it's the difference between a warm plate and a soggy one.

Catering Across Dum Dum & the Airport-Road Belt

Head north instead, and you're in Dum Dum territory — home to Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose International Airport and one of the busiest stretches in North Kolkata. As a caterer in Dum Dum, Kolkata, we work across Nager Bazar (one of the area's largest markets, right by the Dum Dum metro), Motijheel, Dum Dum Park, and the airport-road belt running toward Jessore Road.

This part of the city moves fast. Offices near the airport run back-to-back meetings, families in Lake Town and Bangur Avenue host weekend birthdays, and Dum Dum's metro connectivity means guests arrive from all over Kolkata without much fuss. Our packages flex to match — from a 50-plate birthday lunch to a 300-plate wedding reception.

Because the Dum Dum belt sits north of central Kolkata, transport works the other way from a Howrah run — no bridge crossing, but often more traffic through Jessore Road during peak hours. We factor that into your delivery window so the welcome drinks are cold and the starters are hot when your guests sit down. And if your event is near the airport itself, just flag it — we'll plan around flight-time traffic too.

And if your event itself sits closer to North Kolkata proper — Shyambazar, Ultadanga, or Sealdah — our catering services in Central & North Kolkata page covers that ground.

Per-Plate Catering Prices for Howrah & Dum Dum Events (2026)

Let's talk numbers, because that's usually what people want first. New Bhojon's catering prices run from ₹777 per plate (Maharani) to ₹2,555 per plate (Bonedi Barir), across 15 named packages. Every package is fully itemised — we don't do vague "starting from" pricing with no menu attached.

For Howrah and Dum Dum weddings and birthdays, most bookings fall into this range:

A few things matter as much as the price itself. GST is charged separately — always 5%, as per CBIC rules, never hidden in the per-plate figure. Minimum order is 300 plates for all wedding packages. And transport is quoted based on distance from our College Square kitchen, whether that's a Howrah cross-river run or a Dum Dum airport-road delivery.

Live counters — fuchka, kebab, pasta, Chinese, dessert — are priced separately too, typically ₹40–₹150 per plate depending on the counter. Several packages, like Babumoshai and Rajbarir, already include a live Jalebi Counter at no extra cost.

For the complete dish-by-dish breakdown of all 15 packages, see our New Bhojon catering rate chart and full price list — it's the same one we use for quotes across Kolkata, including Howrah and Dum Dum.

Wedding Catering in Howrah & Dum Dum (Biye Bari Specialists)

A Bengali wedding has a rhythm to it — welcome drinks, a starter spread, then the big main-course reveal, and finally the sweets table everyone's been waiting for. As a wedding caterer in Howrah, we build our menus around that rhythm, not against it.

For the biye bari itself, our Bengali-leaning packages do the heavy lifting. Rajnandini (₹799) brings back Koraishutir Kochuri alongside Chingri Malaikari and Cholar Dal — old-school comfort food that older guests recognise instantly. Khati Bangali (₹999) goes further still, with Bhetki Fish Fry, Posto Katla, and Mutton Kosha on one plate. We've found that these two packages get requested again and again for Howrah weddings, probably because Shibpur and Salkia families tend to want that classic Bengali spread — not a fusion menu pretending to be something else.

For a reception or Bou Bhat, multi-cuisine packages tend to work better. Babumoshai (₹985) is a favourite here — it includes Mutton Biryani in the main course plus a live Jalebi Counter, and at under ₹1,000 a plate, it's hard to argue with. Nababi (₹980) and Rajbarir (₹950) both bring a strong welcome-drinks counter — an 8-type mocktail bar, in Rajbarir's case — which suits an evening Dum Dum reception where guests trickle in over a longer window.

And if you're planning something bigger — a 500-plate wedding in Salkia, say, or a grand Dum Dum reception — Bonedi Barir (₹2,555) is our flagship. It brings a live Real Fruit Juice Counter, Tangri Kebab, Chingri Malaikari, Mutton Biryani, Mutton Chap, and Malpoa with Rabri to finish. This is the package we recommend when a family wants the wedding people still talk about a year later.

Whatever the package, every wedding order comes with full service staff at a ratio of one server per 25 guests, plus chafing dishes, serveware, and heating fuel — all included.

Birthday & House-Party Catering Across Both Belts

Not every event needs 300 plates and a live counter. Birthdays, small family functions, and house parties in Howrah and Dum Dum need something simpler — good food, on time, without a fuss.

For these, Maharani (₹777) through Jamidari (₹888) cover most birthday bookings. Maharani's five starters — Chicken Kebab, Paneer Toothpick, and Fish Ball among them — plus Chicken Korma and Gulab Jamun make a complete, crowd-pleasing spread for a kid's birthday or an adult milestone alike. Want a bit more? Jamidari adds Gandharaj Chicken and Mutton Kasa to the mix, and it still comes in under ₹900 a plate.

We've catered birthday parties in Salkia flats with barely enough kitchen space for one gas burner, and in Dum Dum Park gardens with room to spare. Either way, our setup adapts — fewer staff, a tighter footprint, but the same fresh-cooked food. Fancy a fuchka or chaat counter for the kids? That's an easy add-on too.

For more ideas, take a look at our birthday party catering service — and if you're planning something even smaller, our small party and home catering guide walks through exactly how that works.

Why New Bhojon Is a Trusted Catering Service for Howrah & Dum Dum

So why pick New Bhojon over a local Howrah or Dum Dum caterer? Three reasons, really.

First, we publish actual prices — not "call for quote" ranges that mean nothing until you've haggled. Every package on our rate chart lists exact dishes and exact per-plate cost, so you know what ₹985 buys before you even pick up the phone.

Second, we're licensed and registered, properly. FSSAI Licence No. 12820019000862, KMC Trade Licence C.E. No. 007551034206, and GST registration 19AOQPD3904E1Z1. You can verify our FSSAI licence yourself on the government's FoSCoS portal — it takes about a minute, and honestly, more Kolkata caterers should make this easy to check.

Third, we know the logistics. Twenty years of cooking for Kolkata weddings means we've made the Howrah Bridge run and the Jessore Road run more times than we can count. We plan timing around traffic, not despite it. Since 2006, that's added up to over 300 events — with plenty more booked for 2026.
