Madiba began in NY 8 years ago as a South African pavilion also referred to as a ‘Shebeen’; the informal social halls wherein South Africans leave the work day behind to embrace joy, laughter, community, and a little beer to boot. We promise you that your experience at Madiba will be an exceptional one! Like the original Madiba restaurant itself, our Catering & Event Production division is both a gateway and a much missed opportunity for enjoyment that is nothing short of ‘home’; wherever that home may be.
We are a New York based full-service Catering & Event Company, experts at making any size corporate or social function a highly unique event. Madiba is founded on the basis of superb professionalism wrapped in family - like warmth. With an array of international cuisines you are always guaranteed the highest level of first class service.
