The kitchen
is in the building.
Bauwerk is part of the METZ Eventmanufaktur — which means the catering does not arrive by van, it is made on site. Our own kitchen and our own delivery access, right next to the hall. Between plate and guest lie a few metres rather than a motorway.
More than 90 years
of cooking
METZ Catering + Eventmanufaktur has been cooking in Cologne, Bonn and across Germany since 1934 — four generations in which a catering business grew into a company with its own venues. The Bauwerk is one of them. Book here and you get both from one source: the room and what is served in it.
Banquet, gala, conference catering, themed worlds, sustainable catering, Christmas parties, private catering — the full range of the Eventmanufaktur is available at Bauwerk too.
Seven ways
to serve
your guests
Banquet & gala
A multi-course menu at the laid table, built around the evening that is meant to be remembered.
Conference & trade show
Coffee breaks that are ready on time, lunches that do not send people to sleep, finger food for the wind-down.
Weddings
From the reception on the Magistrale to the midnight snack — matched to your schedule, not to a package.
Themed worlds
Food as part of the staging: stations, live cooking, menus built along a theme.
Sustainable catering
Regional and seasonal cooking, considered quantities, less waste — as a consistent concept if you wish.
Christmas party
The format that returns every year and may still taste different every time.
Private catering
Smaller gatherings in familiar company — birthday, anniversary, family celebration.
Bar & drinks
One of the six boxes becomes the bar. Cocktails, wine, barista — a place of its own rather than a counter against the wall.
Outdoors
Reception, grill station or bar service on the Magistrale — among lounge furniture and patio heaters.
Short distances,
hot plates
Kitchen and delivery sit in the same building as the hall. You notice it not on paper but on the plate — and in the fact that moving from talk to dinner does not need half an hour of rebuilding.
