There’s almost always a reason to gather.

A birthday. A baby shower. An office meeting. A family celebration. Friends coming over for the weekend. A church gathering. Or maybe it’s simply having a few people around the table that you’re happy to see.
But somewhere between inviting everyone and opening the front door comes the question:
What are we going to feed everybody?
At Meyers Specialty Market in downtown McConnelsville, we believe entertaining doesn’t have to mean spending the entire day in the kitchen.
Sometimes the easiest way to be a good host is to let someone else take care of part of the food.
Keep It Simple. Make It Good.
Good food doesn’t have to be complicated.
Our deli and bakery give you plenty of options for putting together a spread that feels thoughtful without requiring you to prepare everything yourself.
Depending on your gathering, that might mean a freshly prepared meat-and-cheese tray, a beautiful charcuterie tray, bakery favorites, or a combination of several Meyers goodies.
Pick it up, take it home, put it on the table, and enjoy your people.
We’ll take care of the food. You take the credit. We’re perfectly fine with that.
Meat & Cheese Trays for Easy Gatherings
There’s a reason a good meat and cheese tray never goes out of style.
They’re easy to serve, there’s something for nearly everyone, and they work for
everything from a casual family get-together to an office meeting.
Our trays are prepared using freshly sliced selections from the Meyers deli and arranged so they’re ready for your gathering.
They’re a great choice for:
Birthday parties
Graduation celebrations
Baby and bridal showers
Office meetings
Church gatherings
Family reunions
Open houses
Holiday get-togethers
Weekend guests
Add crackers, bread, fruit, or a few favorite extras, and you have an easy spread without spending hours preparing it.
Make It Special With a Charcuterie Tray
When you want something with a little extra wow factor, a charcuterie tray is an easy way to make the table feel special.
Our charcuterie trays bring together a variety of flavors, textures, and little bites that are perfect for sharing.
They work beautifully for showers, girls’ nights, celebrations, holiday gatherings, business events, date nights, or even a weekend away in Southeast Ohio.
And the best part?
You don’t have to arrange a thing.
Pick it up from Meyers, and it’s ready to enjoy.
Don’t Forget Something From the Bakery
Every gathering needs a little something sweet.
Our Meyers bakery is known for fresh-made favorites, and adding something from the bakery is an easy way to finish your menu.
Whether you’re feeding a crowd or putting together something simple for family and friends, stopping at Meyers means you can take care of more of your gathering in one place.
And yes, if your gathering happens to fall around Cinnamon Roll Friday, we certainly wouldn’t discourage adding a box of cinnamon rolls to the plan!
Hosting Out-of-Town Family?
We see this often in McConnelsville.
Family comes home for a weekend, friends visit from out of town, or everyone gathers for a celebration. Suddenly, you’re trying to figure out breakfast, lunch, snacks, and dinner for a house full of people.
That’s exactly when keeping things simple matters.
Stop at Meyers for deli meats and cheeses, fresh bakery items, specialty foods, pantry staples, and other goodies to help keep everyone fed without making every meal a production.
It gives you more time for the reason everyone came in the first place:
Being together.
Planning an Office or Community Gathering in McConnelsville?
Easy entertaining isn’t only for parties at home.
If you’re planning an office meeting, community event, church gathering, or other local function, Meyers can help make the food part of your list a little easier.
Instead of spending your morning shopping, slicing and arranging, place your order ahead of time and let our team prepare it for you.
It’s one less thing to worry about on an already busy day.
Please Give Us a Little Time
Because we prepare our pre-orders fresh, advance notice is important.
Most pre-orders require at least 48 hours’ notice. Charcuterie trays may require up to 72 hours’ notice.
Planning ahead gives our team the time needed to prepare your order with the care you expect from Meyers.
If you know you have a gathering coming up, don’t wait until the last minute. Get your order on our list and check one more thing off yours.
Easy Entertaining Starts at Meyers
You don’t have to make everything from scratch to make people feel welcome.
Sometimes hospitality looks like a beautiful tray in the middle of the table, something fresh from the bakery, and enough time left over to actually sit down and enjoy the people around you.
If you’re planning a gathering in McConnelsville, Morgan County, or Southeast Ohio, let
Meyers Specialty Market help make feeding everyone a little easier.
Good food. Less fuss. More time around the table.
