As students, we may not always have the time or means of transportation to grab lunch at local Starkville restaurants, but we do always have our phones – and that is now all we need since there is a new catering business in town.

Bulldog2Go catering company currently has nine restaurants customers can order from: Christy’s Hamburgers, Mugshots, Old Venice Pizza Co., The Camphouse, Casa Bravo, Lost Pizza Co., Starkville Café, Shipley Donuts and Dawg House Sports Grill are all on the list. 

Katelyn Ware, senior biology major, said she uses the business frequently to save time.

“My roommate and I order from them all the time,” Ware said. “They are super quick and the delivery guy is really friendly. It’s so convenient whenever I’m tired from classes and want something quick without getting fast food.”

Bulldog2Go is in their third week of business and have had a lot of attention so far. They have at least 30 orders per day. 

The company has four other locations, and it was founded in Atlanta at the University of Georgia before the company made its way to Auburn, Alabama, Oxford and now Starkville.

Mary Jean Traylor, marketing and advertising head of Bulldog2Go catering business, said she first learned of the company Crimson2Go as a student at the University of Alabama. She got on board with them as a driver and worked her way up into the office. 

“We are most excited about the probability of getting more restaurants and seeing the business grow,” Traylor said. “The town of Starkville already seems so happy with it and it makes us even more excited about it.” Bulldog2Go is now delivering breakfast and donuts from Shipley Donuts and Starkville Café as early as 7:30 a.m. The service recently acquired car-toppers so drivers are now easy to recognize.

Delivery can be expected anywhere from 30-60 minutes after placing the order. The delivery fee is $2.99 and can be paid by card or cash. Traylor said they will deliver within a five mile radius from the chosen restaurant. 

“We’ve tried to span out the restaurants all throughout Starkville so students at least have one or two restaurants that are within their delivery zone even if they live on the outskirts of town,” Traylor said. “And if we’re not busy and someone places an order outside of our delivery area, we just do 80 cents a mile beyond 5 miles.”

Bulldog2Go gives out coupon codes on social media for free first-time delivery fees. The company is “Bulldog2Go” on Facebook and Instagram and @Bulldog_2Go on Twitter. For more information visit www.bulldog2go.com or call (662)-268-8173 to place an order.
