From seasoned catering professionals to your partner in the kitchen, CBG Kitchen supports Houston food entrepreneurs with the space, tools, and guidance to grow their businesses.
Our Story
For Kim and Jeffrey George, long recognized as a top Houston corporate caterer, the pandemic hit hard. With office meetings and events canceled, Catering by George suddenly faced an empty calendar—a first in 32 years of business. In July 2020, they made the difficult decision to close and let go of their staff, many of whom had been with the company for over 10 years, and some nearly 25.
Owning a building already set up as a commissary kitchen, and armed with decades of catering experience, Kim and Jeffrey saw an opportunity: to share their knowledge with aspiring food entrepreneurs.
CBG Kitchen is more than just a rental space — it’s part of Houston’s culinary history. For over 30 years, this kitchen was home to Catering by George, serving countless events and building a reputation for excellence.
Today, it’s open to food entrepreneurs, caterers, bakers, and small business owners who need a professional, reliable space to grow. As long-time catering professionals ourselves, we understand the challenges you face. That’s why we built CBG Kitchen: to provide a safe, supportive place to grow without the pressure of a full-scale facility.
Since August 2020, CBG Kitchen has proudly served Houston’s culinary community, helping food businesses launch, expand, and succeed.
At CBG Kitchen, our mission is simple: to help food entrepreneurs succeed in a professional, supportive, and respectful environment. We believe that great food businesses grow not just through skill and hard work, but through community, collaboration, and shared knowledge.
We are committed to:
Supporting growth: Providing a safe, fully equipped kitchen where food makers can develop, launch, and expand their businesses.
Fostering community: Creating a culture of respect, cooperation, and encouragement among all members.
Sharing expertise: Offering guidance and insights from our 30+ years of experience in Houston’s catering and culinary scene.
Maintaining excellence: Upholding professional standards for cleanliness, safety, and organization so everyone can thrive.
CBG Kitchen is more than a space — it’s a community built on trust, respect, and the shared goal of helping Houston’s food entrepreneurs succeed.
