7 Best Caterers near Chester

“The Villager is my favorite place for breakfast. Richie’s daily specials are always imaginative, different, delicious and healthy!“

“Was a guest at wedding hosted by Coastal Gourmet had an amazing time, food, service, staff were all out of this world. I’ve been to many weddings and I was floored, the attention to detail and display of stationary table was to die for, Jenna (I think that’s her name) was on top of every little detail. Would def recommend.“

“Our wedding over Memorial Day Weekend at The Lace Factory was all we ever dreamed (and more)! Venue: The actual venue is STUNNING and SO UNIQUE, especially for the New England area! We toured almost a dozen venues and did not find one that had the vintage & ornate touches that The Lace Factory did. Furthermore, they have 2 great outdoor areas: one which has a beautiful garden and is used for ceremonies and cocktail hours, and a second in the front which has views of the Connecticut River. The inside is so charming, and they have beautiful decorations in their Decor Book to choose from. But they also allow & encourage each couple to make the space personal by using the shelves and tables they provide for frames, guest books, memorial tables, etc. Since the space is so large and flexible, we were able to have a Photo Booth, couch seating area, kids play area, AND a large Dance Floor. And to top it all off, The Lace Factory is one of the few we found that allows for "sparkler send-offs" which was a blast for everyone. Planning: We did a 1 year engagement and from the start it was a very easy process working with the staff. 11 months prior, we were given a very detailed tour and all of our questions were answered, so we secured our date over email with ease. Although we were planning from out of state, they were in constant communication with us, ensuring we completed all steps within our timeline. Anytime we had a question, they responded to an email within 24 hours or a phone call immediately. Additionally, they have a great reputation with various vendors and took care of contacting the vendors to provide them logistics for the big day (which was a huge weight off our shoulders)! Food/Drink: All of the food is fantastic! They have an extensive menu that can be served plated or buffet. We chose plated (and highly recommend the roasted statler chicken)! We were also in awe at the cake they designed for us that perfectly matched the example photo we provided (and tasted great)! They have many fun add-on options, such as a Donut Bar which was a huge hit with our guests. The drinks were great and the package included a Signature Cocktail which was fun to create with them. The Lace Factory truly created the BEST day of our lives and we are forever grateful!“

“Great fresh food with a lot of options. Plan ahead on weekends, you should expect hour plus wait times once you are seated for your food. We come here frequently for breakfast - it’s faster to order takeout for sure.“

“5 stars is not enough. Our wedding was without a doubt the most perfect event we could have ever wished for. From the beginning planning stages, Hattie, Lauren, Kelley, everyone was so incredibly responsive, helpful and answered a million questions from myself or my mom. They worked with us to ensure everything was perfect, and we could not have had a more elegant wedding without the help of the entire venue staff. From day of Rob and everyone who assisted made sure things ran so smoothly. One of our busses was delayed due to traffic (Memorial Day Weekend- no surprise there) & even with the minor inconvenience the staff made sure that things ran so smoothly that myself (the bride) and my guests really had no clue things were pushed back a tiny bit. The food was outstanding, the service was impeccable. We had our cocktail hour both inside & outside and adding a second bar was ideal. We added a sushi bar, and my guests are still talking about how delicious it was. They accommodated all of our requests with ease, and I wish I could relive the day and night over and over again. All of my vendors informed me during the planning process just how professional and wonderful the venue is, and it could not be more true. They all worked seamlessly with Riverhouse. Our personal attendants were wonderful, ensuring myself and my husband had the best day and night of our lives. Most venues do not offer suites for grooms, and I am so happy that the men were able to have their own place to relax and hangout. our bridal suite was prepared perfectly for us with champagne snacks and everything we needed. Quality service is hard to come by these days, but every single staff member working at our wedding went above and beyond to make sure my husband, myself and my guests had an incredible night. My guests are still raving weeks later about the wedding. I could not recommend this venue and the entire staff enough, get married here!!! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the most perfect wedding!!! ❤️❤️❤️“

“Wonderful customer service, loved the sundae and small ice cream even bought a shirt and the lady at the register took the time to find my size in the back.“
