Such a wonderful experience with Wheelhouse catering our event! They were extremely easy to work with, dependable, and the food was amazing. Would absolutely use again for future catering needs.
We are beyond thrilled that we chose Wheelhouse to cater our wedding in early October. Their entire team is incredible to work with; very responsive, professional and kind. The food and presentation went above and beyond our expectations. We still have guests complimenting us on how much they enjoyed their meals. We especially love their commitment to work with local vendors in the area to source their ingredients!
Wheelhouse catered our wedding in September 2024 and it was like a dream come true. Not only did every guest compliment the food (even the hard-to-please second cousin, which is a feat), but working with them throughout the entire process was a delight.
We knew we wanted a farm-to-table, family-style meal, so Wheelhouse seemed like a good fit. Fifteen minutes into our first consultation with them, my husband and I were already texting each other under the table: “This is the one!” Their professional, warm demeanor made planning a wedding menu seem fun instead of stressful, and no part of what we wanted seemed to throw them off their game. We wanted an all vegetarian menu? No problem. We wanted to incorporate our Jewish heritage into the food? Perfect, they had a zillion tasty ideas about how to do that. We had a guest with a severe gluten allergy? The founder of Wheelhouse is also extremely gluten intolerant, so they were very capable of providing that guest with a safe and beautiful dining experience.
The team at Wheelhouse was in constant communication with us. They had a timeline set up from the start, and they were always right on schedule. They created a menu tailored specifically to our tastes, with no compromises. It was incredible. We couldn’t have asked for a better planning process, and definitely felt very cared for. The entire time leading up to the wedding, starting with that first consultation, we felt that the team at Wheelhouse personally cared very much about our wedding day.
The day of the event, they handled everything with perfect ease. There were no hitches, accidents, or surprises. The food was DELICIOUS — everything we wanted and more.
The final touch? Zofia found us after our meal to personally tell us that our ceremony was beautiful, and moved her. That stuck with us. What caterer cares about the wedding ceremony?! Only one as involved and passionate as the Wheelhouse team.
Have these folks cater for you! You won’t regret it.
This is THE wedding caterer to pick. Let's be serious - who really remembers wedding food. It's the typical main, starch veggie. That is not Wheelhouse. The food was incredible. Using local ingredients, crafted a menu to meet my husband and I, and pulling off consistent amazing food for well over 100+; I could go on and on about the pros of Wheelhouse and why they stand far above the crowd. In addition to the food being top tier, they are super easy to get ahold of, have all the kinks worked out and are just overall awesome. Would recommend without a doubt.
The Wheelhouse hosted an amazing event for us at their Main Street, Amherst site!! All the staff were wonderful and everything far exceeded my expectations:
In particular, they had an amazing intuition as to the timing/flow of the evening and helped move everything along in a seamless professional fashion.
Our guests all said that the food was absolutely delicious and they all felt very taken care of.
The space also really facilitated good conversation and mingling and then a comfortable and spacious sit-down-dinner area.
We couldn’t have been happier with our decision to work with Wheelhouse Farm as our wedding caterer. It was important to us to partner with a local vendor who values fresh, local ingredients, and Wheelhouse Farm was the perfect fit. From the start, they were incredibly personable, helping us navigate every question and request with kindness. They collaborated with us to create a custom, farm-to-table menu that was not only beautiful but hearty and satisfying for all our guests. They expertly combined visual appeal with delicious flavors, and their cocktail appetizers were some of the best we’ve had. The highlights of the evening were the custom oyster and popcorn bars, which were major crowd-pleasers and tied back to two of our favorite things, giving guests a taste of what we love.
Beyond the food, Wheelhouse worked closely with us to design a custom menu and accompanying signage, ensuring every detail, from name cards to bar signs, fit our vision for a casual, handwritten look and feel. Their attention to detail and commitment made the entire experience unforgettable.
There is a reason they have only five stars on Google, yall!! The Wheelhouse team is incredible. Stephanie was so organized and paid attention to the details, helping us craft a meal for our wedding that represented our tastes while showcasing the incredible produce that the Pioneer Valley has to offer. Alex and the catering team made sure our cocktail hour and reception went smoothly, and our guests were talking about how good the food was *all night*. So grateful for Wheelhouse!
Wheelhouse was beyond perfect for our wedding! The food and drinks were AMAZING! We got so many compliments on both food and drinks! Everything was so fresh and tasty. We wish we could eat it all again! And the service was perfect. Everyone was so so kind and helpful. We got really bad rain and wind on our wedding day but everyone just kept going and no one seemed bothered at all! Also, special shoutout to Alex who was so patient, helpful, organized, available and kind throughout the whole wedding planning process. We feel so lucky that we got to work with her and the rest of the Wheelhouse team.
Working along side of the Wheelhouse staff has been such a pleasure. The attention to detail, the courteousness of their staff, and the level of professionalism they bring to each event is unmatched.
They deliver delicious dishes that are well-presented and taste amazing. Giving each couple a wide variety of menus to choose from makes them an easy choice to recommend. Can’t speak highly enough.
Wheelhouse was the perfect choice for our rehearsal dinner & wedding. The food is outstanding -- so yummy, gorgeous, and full of integrity. Communication with the whole team was respectful, timely, and warm. Recommend them 11/10, they are the best in the Valley (and beyond!!!)

We've had the pleasure of working with Wheelhouse twice now - both times an outdoor buffet luncheon for a memorial service. Of course the food is (as others have said) fabulous, and the reason I chose them the second time around. But what I appreciated most was the efficiency and ease of the planning process, and the professionalism of their staff. Having worked in the service industry for a good part of my adult life, I tend to be picky and bit of a control-freak: I have high expectations. Wheelhouse made it so easy for me to just let go and let it all happen. They know what they're doing, and they do it right. Our events were very casual and low key, but I would have absolutely no hesitation to use them again if/when I have a more formal or elaborate event to host.
Cassie and her team are simply excellent. All our guests raved about the food. They were timely, helpful and always willing to accomodate. I cannot recommend wheelhouse enough. They made our wedding so special!
Our family spent an enchanted evening at Winbrooke Berkshires for an amazing farm to table dinner with wine pairings by Wheelhouse Farms! Every detail was spectacular! From the charcuterie on the grand portico to the 5 courses served on the terrace, everything was perfection! I can't wait to have another feast just like this!!! Thanks to mother nature for a beautiful warm summer evening!
Our food at our VVF wedding was thoughtfully prepared and delicious! You can tell they take their time constructing the menu to be seasonal and fresh. The food was amazing, our guests were so happy and they were super easy to work with! Made our day that much sweeter.
Wheelhouse was the ideal caterer for our wedding: the food was delicious, the service phenomenal, and the communication was absolutely perfect. We worked with Cassie and Stephanie and I can’t say enough good things about working with both of them. After every call, I felt prepared for the next step and confident about our decision to work together. We wanted to create a unique menu that included some of our favorite foods (everything from local cheeses, to oysters, to duck!) and Wheelhouse hit it out of the park. So many people came up to us to compliment the food – one vegetarian guest said her selection was the best she has had at a wedding! I also really appreciated that Wheelhouse made sure we ate – I feel so lucky that I was actually able to enjoy every appetizer and entrée we served at our wedding. Thank you, Wheelhouse!
