Kennedy Cotton
Say hello to Kennedy, Sous Chef for Heritage. When Kennedy first joined our team, he was juggling 3 jobs at a local coffee shop, restaurant and Heritage. To say this guy is a hard worker is an understatement. He accepts challenges and curve balls head on. Kennedy has a willingness to learn and a genuine passion for food. He handles stress and high volume cooking with grace. I’m grateful to have Kennedy on the Heritage team. He’s responsible for all the tasty treats coming out of the kitchen, so keep those orders coming!

★ Covid-19 Update★
Like all of you, we’re doing our best to adapt to this ever evolving situation. We are so grateful for the healthcare professionals on the front lines helping those who are sick. We’re praying for wisdom, strength and resolve for our government leaders. And we hope our community continues to display courage, hope, generosity and kindness.
To keep your guests and our staff safe, we are following the Directive on Resuming Restaurant Dine-in Operations and Directive Regarding Large Indoor Venues. Links to these directives can be found at https://www.healthy.arkansas.gov/programs-services/topics/covid-19-health-guidances. The directives were changed to Guidances on February 26, 2021. Here are a few ways we’re working hard to keep our team and your guests safe!
☑️ All Heritage employees are screened upon arrival to work (at Heritage and/or the event venue). Any employee with known exposure to someone with Covid-19 in the past 14 days will not be allowed to work.
☑️ All food and beverages are served to your guests by catering attendants (nothing can be self serve).
☑️ Heritage employees will wear a mask and gloves at all times. Gloves will be changed between tasks, and hands will be washed and sanitized frequently.
☑️Hand sanitizer will be placed anywhere food and beverages are served.
☑️If possible, it’s best to keep food and clean dishes separate from dirty, used dishes. Meaning, it’s helpful to have a separate area for bussing.
☑️We recommend calling guests by tables (or small groups) to go through the buffet. This allows people to social distance while being served.
If you’re planning a wedding, holiday gathering or special event, we would love to visit with you! We can meet in person, schedule a phone or Zoom call and chat about your upcoming event.
With love & gratitude, Shane & Kim Henderson

F.A.Q.
Q: Do you require a deposit to hold my date?
A: For wedding & special events: A $500 deposit is required as soon as possible to confirm the reservation. Deposit is non-refundable and non-transferable for other services or dates. Cancellation forfeits deposit. A guaranteed head count and 50% payment is due 30 days prior to the event. Guest count may be increased after such time but not decreased. Final payment and guest count is due 1 week prior to the event. All payments are non-refundable. There is a $25 late fee and 10% finance charge if these terms are not met.
Q: What forms of payment do you accept?
A: We prefer cash, debit and credit cards but will also accept personal checks.
Q: When do you need my final guest count?
A: For weddings & special events, a guaranteed count is due 30 days prior to the event. Guest count may be increased after this time but not decreased. Final head count is due one week prior to the event so we can prepare accordingly.
Q: How do I make my deposit & any subsequent payments?
A: For credit card payments, we can email a secure link to pay online. You can mail payments to P.O. Box 22912, Little Rock, AR 72221, or drop off payments in person at 315 N. Bowman Road, Suite 2, Little Rock, AR 72211.
Q: Are there additional fees or charges?
A: Everything will be line itemized on your proposal and invoice. Applicable taxes will be applied to each event order. If Heritage Catering staff is working your event, there will also be a 10% service charge added to the total of the bill. The service charge is not a tip or gratuity for staff. The service charge is to cover the overhead expenses like insurance, office supplies, van fuel, rent and administrative expenses. Tips (gratuity) to the staff are solely at your discretion.
Q: What is your cancellation policy?
A: Should it become necessary to cancel your event and terminate the contract, the client will be responsible for all expenditures to date, including but not limited to food and labor expenses, special orders, rentals and/or proposals costs. All deposits and payments are non-refundable. However, if, due to emergency (including COVID related issues) the client wishes to reschedule the event, the deposit and payments made to date are transferable. As long as the location and date are agreeable to Heritage Catering and the client, we will be pleased to honor these arrangements.
Q: Do you offer tastings?
A: Yes, we are happy to prepare a selection of menu items based on the menu created for your event. For our tastings, we typically prepare 4-6 menu items, and charge $100 for each tasting for up to 4 guests. This price could fluctuate depending on the menu items requested. As a catering company, we’re a little different than a restaurant. We don’t have a set menu we prep and prepare everyday. We purchase food based on what is ordered for the week. So our tastings are completely customized and prepared just for you!
Q: How far in advance do I need to book you?
A: If you know your event date, we always recommend you reserve your date as soon as possible. Once you have signed your contract and paid the initial deposit, your date is locked in and on our calendar. Weekends during “wedding season” can fill up quickly. Corporate lead times are much shorter. Most times, we can accommodate smaller corporate requests, such as lunches, in a matter of days.
Q: Can you accommodate for dietary restrictions on my menu?
A: Yes, we have a wide variety of vegetarian, gluten-free, allergy-sensitive and other special needs menu items. When planning your event, we will discuss your dietary needs and will suggest a menu that will be suitable for you and your guests.
Q: Can you provide service staff for my event?
A: Yes. Heritage Catering can provide servers & bartenders for your event for $25 per hour, per employee. This charge is calculated from the time they leave Heritage Catering until they return. Heritage servers will provide agreed upon setup and breakdown of the event, maintain food and beverage areas to ensure cleanliness and will bus tables. Our staff is also responsible for cleaning their work area and following the rules of the venue.
Q: What does your staff wear while working events?
A: Our servers and bartenders wear black pants, black, long sleeve, button-down collared shirts, black shoes and a Heritage Catering apron.
Q; Do you charge a cake cutting fee?
A: No, if Heritage servers are working your event, they will be happy to cut the wedding cake.
Q: I’m planning on providing alcohol at my event. Can I hire your bartenders to serve it?
A: Yes, if you plan to provide alcohol for your event, Heritage can provide bartenders. The charge for bartenders is $25 per hour, per bartender. The client is responsible for delivering alcohol to the venue.
Q: Is Heritage Catering licensed and insured?
A: Yes, we have all licenses, permits and insurances that are required to prepare and serve food and beverages. We can provide you and/or your event space or company with a copy of these if needed.
Q: Can you provide rental items for my event?
A: We work with local rental companies for items like tables, chairs, linens, china, glassware and flatware. We can make recommendations for items and quantities needed based on your event.
Q: Can I customize the menu and services for my event?
A: Definitely! We are here to serve you, and want to create a menu that suits you best. You can add beverages, equipment and staff. The factors that affect the price of an event include the number and kind of menu choices, number of guests, length of the event as well as number of servers required. Our goal is to give you the fairest price based on your specific needs.
