Andy Dennis, Owner / President

Andy has been in the hospitality business for 33 years and has been involved in every aspect of the food and beverage industry.  He started as a busser and dishwasher for a little cafe in his home town of Atlantic, Iowa at the age of 16.  During his college career he bartended, served and cooked at a Bar and Grille in Storm Lake, Iowa.  After he graduated college in 1992 he got a job trying to sell the most ridiculous things ever, cellular phones.  They were to big and to expensive so Andy worked nights and weekends at a Cheddar's Casual Cafe as a server and cook to help pay the bills. He worked for Cheddar's in several rolls including General Manager and in several states until 1999.  Andy then left the restaurant business to be a Director of Food & Beverage for Radisson Hotel in Hampton, Virginia.  In 1993 he took a role as the Director of Operations for Q’s Restaurant Group, LLC operating Cheddar’s Casual Café restaurants in the Tampa, Florida market.  In 2007 he created 3 C's Catering as a division of Q's.  In 2011 3 C's Catering became its own LLC and in 2015 Andy and his wife bought out the owner of Q's to become the owners and operators of 3 C's Catering, LLC.. Andy strives to ensure all of 3 C’s Catering events are well organized. He oversees all aspects of operations, including: staffing, set up, and food production.
