Santa Maria Lodge Rent the hall. The Rooster brings dinner.
Catering is now available at Santa Maria Lodge. We went looking for a kitchen that cooks the way our nonnas did — sausage and peppers, chicken parm, meatballs by the tray — and could also smoke a brisket for the in-laws. We found it a few miles up Twelve Mile Road. The Rusty Rooster Saloon is the Lodge’s designated caterer for hall rentals and club parties. You book the date, you pick the menu, and the Rooster shows up with hot pans.

Designated caterer
One phone call, zero dishes
Our hall rental already gives you the whole building, the kitchen and the bar for $350. Catering was the one thing renters still had to figure out on their own. Not anymore.
One call does it
Tell the Rooster your date, your head count and what you are craving. They quote it, cook it, and bring it to Bunert Road hot — aluminum pans included on drop-offs.
Drop-off or full service
Want it simple? Pans on the counter, you serve. Want a night off? Chafing dishes, hot boxes, service staff, bartenders, linens and room set-up are all on the list.
Italian when you want it
Chicken parmesan, piccata, marsala, sausage and peppers, lasagna, sfincione — and when the crowd wants barbecue, pulled pork, brisket and St. Louis ribs. Polish night covered too: stuffed cabbage and city chicken.
A look at the food
This is what shows up when the Rooster caters. Fair warning: do not scroll this on an empty stomach.

Two calls, one great night
The Lodge handles the hall. The Rooster handles the food. You handle the guest list.
Book the hall
Pick an open date on the rentals page. $350 for the whole day, $100 deposit holds it, up to 85 guests. The kitchen, bar, tables and chairs come with it.
Call the Rooster
Ring (586) 578-0156, tell them it is for Santa Maria Lodge, give them your date and head count, and pick your menu. They quote it and you settle up with them directly.
Show up hungry
The food arrives hot at 28024 Bunert Road — dropped off and ready, or served and bussed by their staff. You get to be a guest at your own party.
Warren’s own Rusty Rooster Saloon
A neighborhood bar and grill at Twelve Mile and Hoover, a few miles from the Lodge. Deep-dish pizza, burgers, wings, Southern barbecue and a Polish night on Tuesdays — plus a catering kitchen that already feeds parties of a hundred. They are local, they are good, and they answer the phone.
Hungry yet?
