H&J Hospitality is a mid-sized hospitality company based in Ithaca, New York, serving the food and beverage needs of events and institutions in the Finger Lakes region. It began in 2005 when it acquired Joe’s Restaurant, a local landmark dating back to 1932, and used the restaurant as a platform to build a broader catering business. The firm launched its catering operations in 2008 with a Cornell University fraternity formal hosted at the Museum of the Earth, and since then has grown into one of the largest caterers in the Finger Lakes. Within its client base, H&J Hospitality has a longstanding partnership with Cornell University’s Johnson School, under a contract established in 2009 that has become a cornerstone of its catering business. In the same year, the company began an exclusive food and beverage operation at the Ithaca Yacht Club, a relationship described as sustainable for both parties. These arrangements position H&J Hospitality as a regional caterer and F&B operator focused on event-focused services for universities, clubs, and other groups in the Finger Lakes area.
