Caterers near Santa Cruz

“Best hotdog in Santa Cruz and a best owner to a hotdog truck he’s warm he’s kind and he remembers your name“

“We were so glad that we hired Barbara & Company to cater our big party with over 200 guests last weekend. Marina and Victor and their crew are so professional, and truly a pleasure to work with. It was a challenge to select the menu for our party only because they offer so many delicious options, but Marina was a great help in thinking it all through and everything they made was beautifully presented and delicious. They are so well-regarded in our community that I went into the party knowing we’d be completely satisfied with the service and food they provided, and we sure were. They arrived right on time, were ready to get to work, and prepared everything to perfection. They really know how to present all of the food in a very appealing way - everything looked so attractive and professionally done. The crew was really efficient and worked throughout the six-hour party to clear plates and glasses, which were all washed up and ready to be returned to the rental company when the party concluded. Our guests continue to rave about how wonderful the food was and as the semi-frazzled host of the biggest party we’ve ever put on, it was a huge relief to know they handled everything with patience and grace! I highly recommend Barbara & Company, I’m confident you’ll be as completely satisfied as we were!“

“I love the Ice Cream!!“

“Jeff and his team provided us a wonderful backyard post-wedding brunch! Really couldn’t have asked for a better and more friendly and professional crew. You could see their smiles even through their masks. Waffles and French toast wafting through the air, the food spread was fantastic, and Bloody Mary’s were on point! Post-wedding morning to remember. Thanks for helping to make memories worthwhile!“

“We enjoyed excellent tasting, creatively presented and healthy appetizers provided by Wylder Space for our son's engagement party. The bartender, the servers and the team coordination in general were great! Make sure you order more than enough food though since the beef sliders were awesome and we wish we'd had a bit more yummies for our guests. Molly's team on site as well as Morgan behind the scenes made it easy for me to relax and enjoy my guests.“

“This is fabulous food! Ty has got it just spot on. Our brunch this morning out on the patio could not have been tastier or more pleasant. Great food, great location - fantastic overall!“

“The food was delicious, and Mark and his staff were absolutely amazing. Many of our guests commented on how friendly and accommodating they were. Mark was also a great communicator; he reached out a few times before the wedding to check for menu changes and confirm the guest count. Most of our guests went back for seconds, and there was plenty of food for everyone. I can’t say enough good things about Affordable Chef Services—I highly recommend them! I rarely write reviews, but Mark truly helped make our wedding a success.“
