Planning perspective
What to consider before reaching out
A strong first conversation is about fit, not just availability. Share your date, approximate guest count, location, and the feeling you want the day to have. Ask what is included, what typically changes the final quote, and what decisions need to be made earliest.
For a catering partner, confirm how communication works, who will be present on the day, and how the team handles changes. Pricing was not included in the supplied research, so request a current, itemized proposal directly from the business.

We had a lovely dinner at this restaurant. The service was friendly and attentive, and the food was very good, made with fresh local ingredients that gave it a home-cooked feel. The meatloaf burger was the star of the meal!

Was an good meal. I wouldn't order the BOLO again. 5 spiced pork however was a GREAT dish. Needs a little more of the vinaigrette sauce. Drinks are a bit pricey for what you get. But were decent. I will say ordered 2 of the Gardners Sour and they tasted different.

I have to echo Jason below. The FOOD was amazing. Hands down FABULOUS. But leading up to the event (catering 4 dinners in a row for a group of 24) the communication was abysmal. Finally was put in contact with Sarah a week before the event and she (and Michele) were utterly fabulous. If only I was working with them from the start.

Such amazing staff and the food was simply delicious! I’m one who has stomach issues and sensitivity and no worries here. I got the Bolo (bolognese) and it was phenomenal!!! Will definitely become a regular here.

A Vermont table catered our wedding this year. I would’ve given 5 stars but the planning process needs improvement. They were hard to reach and had several communication issues. The food on the day of was excellent. Most guests said it was the best food they’ve ever had at a wedding. The staff was great! They were very knowledgable about certain allergies and provided drinks and food efficiently.
