A Venue We Know
Fine catering, made for Lions Park
Open catering — Lions Park lets you use whichever caterer you choose, and there’s a full commercial kitchen adjacent to the main room that we work from.
A Carpinteria venue we’ve catered — we know its kitchen and its rhythm.
- A cedar lodge with open-beam ceilings and wrought-iron chandeliers, opening onto a lawn and gazebo.
- A commercial kitchen right off the main room, so plated and buffet service runs without a field build-out.
- The lodge seats up to 160 inside, and the lawn holds up to 200 — we plan service for whichever you use.

Catering at Lions Park — your questions
Can All Purpose Flower cater a wedding at Lions Park?
Yes. Open catering — Lions Park lets you use whichever caterer you choose, and there’s a full commercial kitchen adjacent to the main room that we work from. We bring seasonal California menus and full coordination.
Is Lions Park the same as the Carpinteria Lions Club?
Yes — Lions Park and the Carpinteria Lions Club are the same place in Carpinteria. You'll see it written both ways; we've catered there under both names, so search either one and you're in the right spot.
Is there a kitchen at Lions Park?
Commercial kitchen on site, adjacent to the main room — two ovens, a grill, refrigeration, and ample counter space. We prepare and plate a full fine-dining experience right there.
How much does wedding catering at Lions Park cost?
Every Lions Park event is custom. Your total depends on guest count, menu style, and bar service. As a real reference, we catered a buffet dinner for 130 guests here — and Saturday events carry a $5,000 minimum. You can get an instant estimate in a few minutes.
Do you handle rentals, staffing, and the bar at Lions Park?
We manage the full catering side: menu, rentals, staffing, and a day-of captain. Lions Park runs its own bar with its own bartenders, as its alcohol licence requires, so beverage service is arranged through the venue rather than through us. We work alongside that arrangement, and we’ll build your food and service plan around it.
