At Riverhouse Catering we specialize in bringing events to life! Our management and ownership group are dedicated to pairing incredible food and service with the best and most unique venues throughout the state.
As part of our latest expansion, we are very excited and proud to announce that Riverhouse Catering is now the exclusive caterer for all events at the Greater Hartford Jaycees Community Boathouse at Riverside Park in Hartford CT.
Location, location, location! Perhaps the most attractive feature about this venue. Nestled within the Riverside Park along the Connecticut River, The Boathouse is just one mile from downtown Hartford, with an unmatched view of Hartford’s city skyline coupled with the waterfront.

In addition to ample complimentary parking for guests, the use of in-house tables and chairs are included with the rental of the venue space. With the event season taking place May 1st through December 31st, use of the indoor and outdoor venue spaces (with several tenting options) make the Boathouse a comfortable, accommodating and dynamic, must-see location if you’re planning any event.
Planning a Wedding?
If you’re planning a wedding, the Boathouse is a great option for varied budgets and offers breathtaking scenery. Wedding packages range from $69 to $114 per person and include Riverhouse Catering’s Award Winning food, beverage, select linens, tableware, glassware and remarkable service. The venue offers the option to host an outdoor ceremony onsite, followed by an indoor reception, which can accommodate approximately 120-130 seated guests with a dance floor. (Maximum guest count is flexible with use of tented patios – additional rentals required).

Hosting a Corporate/Social Event?
Coordinating a corporate event can be tricky as you need the perfect combination of a good location, great food and a way for attendees to communicate. The Riverfront Boathouse has all this and more! Offering complimentary Wi-Fi, ample parking and available A/V rentals to include a podium, microphone and screen. The indoor community room can accommodate up to 150 people for a sit down dinner, 230 for standing receptions and more than a thousand people if you incorporate tenting on the patios! With the location being just fifteen minutes from Bradley Airport and ten minutes from Union Station, the venue can be easily accessible for guests attending from out of town. Lastly, by partnering with Riverfront Recapture, there are opportunities for events to incorporate team-building exercises with their Adventure program which has a full ropes course, dragon boating and more. By hosting your event at the Boathouse, you are giving back to the city by supporting one of its most cherished non-profit organizations.

We hope that with these favorable attributes of the Riverfront Boathouse paired with the finest catering and memorable experiences delivered by Riverhouse Catering, you will strongly consider the Greater Hartford Jaycees Community Boathouse as the perfect venue for your next event.
