If you'd like to take your guests back in time to a more gracious era, when ballroom dancing was in, men wore top hats and tails and the ladies looked glamorous from head to toe, the newly restored ballroom at the Philipsburgh Performing Arts Center in Yonkers is just the place.

Ron Stytzer, the owner of Antun's of Westchester, and partner John J. Fellin have taken this historic 1904 landmark and returned it to its former glory under the name Encore Caterers. In its heyday, Philipsburgh Performing Arts Center was a frequent gathering place for Presidents Theodore and Franklin Delano Roosevelt, John Philip Sousa and numerous other dignitaries.

With 30-foot high ceilings, massive skylights, faux alabaster chandeliers, gold leaf cornices and an oversized balcony (perfect for tossing the wedding bouquet!), the space will make any bride feel like a star, too!

Encore Caterers offers timeless elegance, culinary excellence and unsurpassed value in a beautiful building located just two blocks from the Hudson River near the newly refurbished Yonkers waterfront. With over 75 combined years of catering experience, Fellin and Stytzer and their staff of catering experts work to create one-of-a-kind events for each guest. They custom design the menus, pay attention to the smallest details and have quality their hallmark. So, if you'd like to travel back in time - even for just a few hours, take a look at Encore.
