25 years of service!

Established in 2005, Cardinal Culinary Services (Cardinal) began as a small catering company serving the Gulf of Mexico. Over the past 20 years, we have grown into a trusted provider of global-standard catering, housekeeping, laundry, and facility support services—serving both onshore and offshore environments across a variety of industries.

At Cardinal, our mission is simple: to make exceptional service feel seamless. We deliver consistent, dependable support through a team of professionals who meet U.S. Coast Guard Fit for Duty physical standards—ensuring they are capable, qualified, and ready to perform in demanding environments. Our services are built on efficiency, transparency, quick response times, and cost-effectiveness, all without compromising our core focus on quality, safety, and client satisfaction.

Whether supporting a crew of 8 or managing large-scale operations for over 2,000 personnel, clients rely on Cardinal for clean, comfortable accommodations, freshly prepared meals, and well-maintained living space environments that promote focus, morale, and productivity.

Our operational excellence is driven by a highly experienced team and a culture rooted in accountability, professionalism, and attention to detail. From executive leadership to frontline staff, we take pride in recruiting and training the right people to uphold the highest standards of care. We enforce stringent quality control measures to ensure we exceed expectations on every project.

With deep expertise in remote environments, we understand that offshore crews have three primary responsibilities: eating, sleeping, and work. At Cardinal, we take ownership of two of those—meals and accommodations—knowing that well-fed, well-rested crews are essential to safe and successful operations. No matter the location, scale, or complexity, Cardinal delivers reliable, responsive service—ensuring the right resources reach the right people at the right time.

Rooted in a tradition of Southern hospitality, our company culture reflects warmth, respect, and genuine care. These values continue to guide how we serve today, creating clean, safe, and welcoming environments that support the health, well-being, and productivity of every team we serve.

Our commitment is clear: to exceed client expectations at every level.

Leadership & Expertise

Founded by Mike and Patrick Robinson, Cardinal is led by a team of seasoned professionals who bring decades of hands-on industry experience to every project. Our leadership team includes management, executive chefs, project managers, and logistics specialists with deep backgrounds in offshore operations, workforce support, and remote site services.

Unlike many companies where leadership is distant from daily operations, Cardinal’s owners and executive management team will actively be involved in the day-to-day operations. Their direct engagement ensures that decisions are informed by real-time insight, and that client expectations are consistently met with accountability, agility, and care. This level of involvement sets the tone for our culture of responsiveness and operational excellence.

As Cardinal continues to grow, we are committed to strengthening our leadership team by recruiting seasoned management professionals who bring extensive industry experience and fresh perspectives. This strategic approach enhances our operational capabilities, broadens our expertise, and ensures that we remain well-equipped to meet the complex demands of the offshore catering industry.

Our cross-functional team structure, enriched by these experienced leaders, enables us to anticipate client needs, respond proactively, and deliver customized, high-quality solutions that align with the evolving priorities of modern offshore environments.
