The Savory Spoon is a five star out of five star catering company. They advertise as “Comfort Food with an Attitude”. I cannot decide whether or not this is true if you research the word “Attitude”. Here’s what I found…. For Thanksgiving and Christmas the meals weren’t just good, they were outstanding! I found the “attitude” to be a chef’s flair to instill love and a flair for drama in her recipes. Cherie Thompson has a staff full of experts with loving kindness and hearts that want to AND do serve. Mashed potatoes aren’t just mashed potatoes- they are fluffy, creamy , garlicky, buttery mounds of perfection. My grandmother was an incredible cook. She always set a full and proper table with multiple main entrees. Having meals in her kitchen even as a young girl were recognized as a treat and mana from heaven. NEVER ever a complaint… those hands that prepared those meals were heaven sent. She never used a recipe - everything and I mean everything was made from scratch….. even down to the butter. She spoiled my taste buds from a young age. To this day, there are certain things I can’t eat because they are just not up to her standards. When I opened all the containers from The Savory Spoon - I was immediately reminded of my grandmother’s table. You can tell, you are in for a wonderful feast. The gravy actually had giblets in it!! It was every bit as good as hers! The name is certainly appropriate for what is being served. This year was a challenging year for me…. Both medically and financially. I have multiple brain tumors that make it difficult for me to stand on my feet for a long period of time. Looking downward can cause me to lose my balance. I can no longer follow a recipe because I have short term memory loss and always lose my place. I do PT each day to help me in this area, but still very challenging & frustrating. I have also been known to substitute items… I made mashed potatoes for my mom when she was sick using vinegar instead of boiling the potatoes in water. I have no idea why!!! I am capable of light cooking but have no confidence in the end result. Cherie and her team gave me so many extra meals not just for Thanksgiving but also for Christmas. The recipes are excellent and whatever ingredients goes into each is more than enough. Have you ever ordered soup in a restaurant and thought to yourself…. Gee, “ this is good, but it could have been be so much better if it had a little more crab or chicken”. You will not experience that with these thoughtful and well planned menus. It was more than enough! Cherie came through for me (a total stranger). I was past the ordering cut off time. She listened and sprung into action. The Savory Spoon has been such a Blessing to me. She even had treats for my dog. This company is a family of love and kindness. Every morsel of food that goes in your mouth is packed full of love and wonderful deliciousness from these gifted individuals! May God continue to Bless you as you have blessed many others! Thank you does not seem to be adequate enough. Best, Toni
We’ve been doing the meal prep service for a few weeks and I highly recommend it! It’s convenient, the meals are all delicious and the team is kind and responsive. Very happy with the service!
We recently hired The Savory Spoon for a buffet style dinner for my mother-in-law’s 90th birthday. Even though it was a small gathering of 12, Cheri provided fancy serving pieces that didn’t make it feel like we were having dinner at home! Cheri and her team made an abundance of delicious comfort foods that everyone enjoyed tremendously! And let me tell you, we had leftovers for days, they do not skimp on portions! If you want to take the stress out of your next function, provide your guests with tasty food and deal with an over accommodating owner and staff, The Savory Spoon is who you should go to.
When looking at who might be able to cater our intimate Wedding at Green Hill Farm, we reached out to a number of vendors to inquire about prices, menus, etc. After conversations with several, we agreed that Savory Spoon Catering seemed to be the best choice we could make.
Not only did each of the various menus presented sound delicious, the pricing was absolutely fair and far better than we were seeing with other vendors in and around our area.
After working with Cheri to settle on a menu for our event, we followed up with a tasting of several of the items we chose and found the dishes to be just as savory as we'd hoped. She stayed in touch with us throughout the planning process up to execution. She even contacted us a few days before the wedding asking if we would be interested in adjusting from Tilapia to Salmon or Steelhead at no additional charge as she was seeing great prices when sourcing ingredients!
On the day of the event, we were simply blown away by how wonderful everything looked and tasted! Cheri and her team had everything impeccably arranged, from appetizers to entrees. Our guests repeatedly asked who made the food, remarking on how great everything looked and tasted.
June 6th, the day of our wedding was an incredible and memorable day. This team is accommodating, professional and yet still personal. Savory Spoon delivered on everything they promised from taste to experience and so much more. If you are are considering them to cater your occassion, whatever it may be, this is one of those rare instances where you get so much more than what you are paying for.
Thank you so much Cheri!

Cheri and her team recently catered our wedding at the Tea Room in Frederick. Throughout the whole process, Cheri maintained great communication and made suggestions for our menu that made it exceptional. On the day of, everything was ready on time, was presented beautifully, and the ladies on her team made sure that my husband and I got a full plate of the delicious food! Thank you, Cheri and team!
Cheri and her team at The Savory Spoon catered my wedding and it was PERFECT! She was so helpful, friendly, communicative and professional during the entire process. She went out of her to make sure our menu was personalized and everything turned out delicious. She brought decorations with my wedding colors for the buffet table and it looked beautiful. HIGHLY recommend The Savory Spoon, she will be my family caterer for life. Thank you for making my wedding day unforgettable. 😍😘
We recently had a wedding catered by Cheri, and she and her whole team were exceptional to work with! She was happy to accommodate whatever requests we had and our ~110 attendees were very well-fed. Once we told her what we needed, and selected a few decorations, she was entirely turnkey from there. We just showed up on the wedding day and the whole food table was already up and ready for us! In addition, she's a delightful person to get to know and we enjoyed some really nice conversation!Also, I want to put in a note about her staff, who were great! They helped guide us through the reception process, giving us time frames for serving and thought of everything, even asking us about any elderly or other folks who needed or would appreciate help and directly assisting them. We were very impressed and highly recommend Savory Spoon!
Today I attended a 100th birthday party that was catered by The Savory Spoon. The food was delicious...I heard so many positive comments!!!I highly recommend this for any event~
Amazing customer service! Easy to order and delicious.
The Savory Spoon catered a bridal shower for over 40 people in a relative's home in Frederick Maryland. The owner, Cheri was very easy to work with, not to mention patient and kind. She readily adjusted the menu to accommodate the bride's numerous food allergies. Everything went smoothly. The delivery was on time, set up was a breeze, and the arrangement looked beautiful. And, best of all, the food was delicious! And there was PLENTY of food for our hungry guests. Everyone raved about the chicken salad, the pasta salad and the cookies. I can understand why the Savory Spoon Catering won several honors and awards. I highly recommend using Savory Spoon catering! Thank you for an exceptional experience.

Cheri and her team worked diligently to make sure our wedding was a success. The food was delicious, and the catering service throughout the entire event was smooth.Working with Cheri for the year leading up to the wedding was a pleasure. She cares so much about her work and it showed in the final product! The compliments on the food were non stop all night!
Amazing food and customer service.
Cheri did a luncheon for my daughter's bridal shower and everything from start to finish was perfection! I had reached out to several caterers initially and she was the most prompt to respond, answered all of my questions and offered a reasonable rate! She even found napkins to match my daughter's theme which was a nice, thoughtful touch. Now for the food- wonderful!! Had multiple people rave about everything (esp. the pasta salad!). The desserts were delicious as well- I'm so glad I decided to use her's rather than order a separate cake, etc. I had such a positive experience, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend The Savory Spoon to anyone! Thanks Cheri!
We used Savory Spoon Catering for my bridal shower this past weekend and couldn’t be more satisfied. The food was amazing!! The presentation was beautiful, the food was fresh and delicious, and the deserts were to die for. Guests all raved about the food as well!
I planned my daughter's bridal shower from SC and I'm so happy I found The Savory Spoon Catering to do the food. Cheri was very professional and obviously experienced. She provided suggestions based on my vision for the event and I felt at ease knowing that the food and drinks would be handled as planned. Everything was set up on time, the displays were beautiful and coordinated well with the décor. My guests raved about how good the food was. I would definitely recommend this business, especially if you're planning something at Surreybrooke.
