Wheelhouse was a better wedding caterer than we could have ever imagined. Working with them was fun and seamless, and they were always so kind and professional. The food itself matched this exceptional quality of service, and our guests were also really grateful for their care and consideration with allergies and dietary restrictions. Thank you to China, Zofia, and the entire Wheelhouse team!!
Wow! From our first planning call to the last bite at our wedding, Wheelhouse delivered an experience we will remember the rest of our lives. Jake and his team were organized, dependable, and absolutely talented.
We looked to incorporate a mix of food that represented our family’s Polish and Caribbean heritage, as well as our Massachusetts upbringing. Without hesitation, Jake was confident and excited about creating a menu to satisfy our unique criteria. When he presented the tentative menu it was very clear that he heard our vision and understood our desires— appetizers that included pierogies, empanadas, lobster rolls; mains that included an unforgettable arroz con Pato, which was indubitably the best duck I have ever had and lastly dessert that represented the fall season.
Everything tasted phenomenal and exceeded every expectation we had. Beyond the amazing taste of their food, Wheelhouse’s service was impeccable! China designed our menu and absolutely crushed it— she also went above and beyond the day of our wedding making sure every single table was satisfied with their meal.
I cannot recommend Wheelhouse Catering enough for your next event. If you are looking for elevated wedding food that sources seasonal products locally and service that your guest will continue to rave about weeks after your event— then I highly recommend you book with Wheelhouse.
Wheelhouse provided exceptional catering for our wedding in Sunderland this August. We contacted three caterers while planning. Wheelhouse was by far the most responsive, organized, accommodating, and easy to communicate with. (One took weeks to respond and another ghosted us!) Wheelhouse also had the most creative and locally sourced food options.
We decided to go with Wheelhouse's simpler drop-off catering option which met our needs and budget. Jake interviewed us about our food preferences and proposed an incredible creative menu with local, seasonal produce that also met the dietary need of our guests. Wheelhouse made every step of the process clear and easy, keeping us on schedule, reaching out to schedule calls, and handling all of the details with great care. They even gave us great advice on local rental companies, checked our rental item order, and advised us on bartending and other needs we weren't even hiring them for to help make our event a success. Truly above and beyond!
The day of the wedding Wheelhouse delivered everything exactly as planned. The food exceeded our high expectations; beautiful mezze board apps, caprese with fresh local tomatoes, braised short ribs, slow roast salmon, vegetarian pasta, broccolini with fried garlic, old bay smashed potatoes, and fresh baked bread. All of the flavors and details were so well balanced and artful from the pepita sauce on the salmon, preserved lemon in the creamy vegetarian pasta, and the fresh baked bread with herbed butter. Many guests complimented us on how delicious the food was, including one of our guests who is a well-known food writer and editor in Boston.
We are so happy that we chose Wheelhouse for our wedding and highly recommend their catering services!
Wheelhouse catered my mothers retirement celebration. Oli and team were a pleasure to work with. The food was local, fresh and delicious. Highly recommend them!
Wheelhouse Catering provided amazing and delicious food, buffet-style, for our at-home 75th birthday party for my husband. The food was fresh and flavorful; the on-site staff server prompt, pleasant and professional; the organization super easy to deal with, from the planning to the carry-through.
Wheelhouse Farm Catering was absolutely incredible for our wedding! From the start, Jake made the planning process seamless, and on the big day Cassie and her team delivered food and service beyond our expectations. Guests are still telling us things like “this is the best chicken I’ve ever had” and “I’ve never eaten wedding food this good — it felt like dining at a top restaurant.” Every dish was fresh, delicious, and beautifully served, and the team went above and beyond to take care of us. We cannot recommend them highly enough!
Wheelhouse catered an event I hosted last week - they were truly excellent to work with and the food was delicious! They do things with mushrooms you really can't believe are possible. Great communications, lovely to be with in person, and diligent with dietary challenges. Thank you so much!
We just had Wheelhouse cater our wedding. They were incredible. The food was fresh and flavorful. The team was so professional and allowed us to make modifications. We went for a tasting and the team worked with us to create our own personalized menu. They were incredible for working with allergies and dietary preferences. I highly recommend them to friends and family. I cannot wait to also attend one of the dinners they host in the future.
Wheelhouse is the best!! Jake, China & the whole team were AMAZING. We had SO many compliments about our wedding day food. They did such an amazing job with our family style wedding food. Everyone was so kind, friendly and so easy to communicate with. They were so helpful from the very beginning and attentive to details (that I hadn't even considered before). We will forever be grateful to Wheelhouse!

We had a party for three hours for 50. Wheelhouse catering was exquisite: on time, well organized, absolutely delicious food, excellent servers, great cleanup and exit. More than simply exceeded our expectations.
I can't say enough good things about Cassie and the Wheelhouse team. My husband is a chef so he definitely likes nice food and from the start, we were so impressed with the team. They were very receptive and available for questions and it was a lot of fun designing the menu. They were the height of professionalism and took all of the food allergies very seriously and made sure every guest had a dish they could eat. During the actual wedding dinner, the food was absolutely amazing!! We got so many compliments on the food. They also designed special cocktails for us which were a huge hit. I would say that if you want fresh, locally sourced food with incredible service, definitely go with this catering team.
All of our wedding guests are still raving about this meal. Wheelhouse makes the most delicious, seasonally-inspired food, and it was truly one of the highlights of our wedding. We especially appreciated their attention to detail in accommodating our friends with allergies and dietary restrictions. They went above and beyond to make sure our guests with allergies could confidently enjoy the meal. Jake and Oli are a dream to work with, and I would HIGHLY recommend them to cater your event!
The Wheelhouse team is just fabulous. Not only is their food outstanding (no fewer than 20 guests attested to it being the best wedding food they had ever had), but they also do their work with such care and attention to detail. They provided us with so much guidance, insights, and advice in the planning and preparation stages, and were thoughtful, flexible, and attentive at every turn. When we first reached out and they were booked for our date for a full dinner service, Jake suggested a buffet instead. Fast forward 8 months, and we shared the most beautiful, most delicious meal with our guests, expertly executed by the Wheelhouse team. We feel like we hit the jackpot getting to work with this most excellent, expert crew, and we are so grateful to each of them. If you are even thinking about Wheelhouse for your event -- email them now!
We cannot say enough wonderful things about Jake and the Wheelhouse team! From the very beginning, they were warm, organized, and genuinely invested in making our wedding meal meaningful and memorable. Their team worked seamlessly with our other vendors and went above and beyond to accommodate our venue’s unique layout and the last-minute weather curveballs.
The food itself was exceptional—creative, seasonal, and absolutely delicious. Our guests are still raving about the passed hors d’oeuvres, perfectly cooked entrees, and the overall presentation. They created a menu that truly reflected who we are, and it was a highlight of the evening.
Even more impressive was the professionalism and calm their staff showed when a sudden microburst interrupted dinner. They adapted quickly and kept service smooth without missing a beat. It was clear they are not only incredibly talented, but deeply experienced and unflappable in the face of the unexpected.
We feel so lucky to have had Jake and Wheelhouse be a part of our wedding day. If you’re looking for a caterer who brings both heart and excellence to their work, look no further.
