21 Best Caterers in Grand Rapids

“KJ Catering catered my wedding this weekend and they were so amazing to work with! We gave our guests the choice of smoke brisket or loaded sweet potato and our sides included their famous cheesy potatoes and sunshine vegetables. People RAVED about our food! I’ve never been to a wedding where the food was this good and I’m so impressed. I knew it was good when we did a tasting but I had no idea so many people would love it as much as we did. We had the zucchini marinara boats, whitefish dip, hummus and pita, and crab stuffed mushrooms as our apps. I have a gluten allergy and they were able to accommodate most things so that I could eat them. I am obsessed with the zucchini boats!! It was the perfect texture and flavor. The wait staff were so sweet and I had the pleasure of having Chef Kevin and Kat at my event ensuring everything went smoothly. We also had them cater a small breakfast for the bridal party in the morning which was equally delicious. Chef Kevin even dropped off two meals the next day for us to enjoy again. The only sad thing is that they don’t have a restaurant because it would easily be my fave place to go! As I ate the last bit of my cheesy potatoes while writing this review, I couldn’t help but hope I get the chance to attend an event catered by this wonderful crew again!“

“We had Kangaroo cater our wedding on 11/1/24 and it was phenomenal. The staff were organized, professional, and kind. The food was as delicious as we remembered from our tasting, and the guests raved about it throughout the night! The menu is expansive and unique! Chef Roman, his staff, and Ashley were incredible to work with. Prices were fair, and the service was exceptional. We appreciated the communication throughout the process as well. They even left us a thank you card during our reception that was signed by all their staff. Our guests had a myriad of dietary restrictions and Kangaroo accommodated all of them with zero issues. Cannot recommend them enough!!!“

“We had an amazing experience with Above and Beyond catering. Sammy was the sweetest and made sure everything went as planned at my wedding. In fact, some of our flower centerpieces fell over and her team jumped into action to fix them, which was not their job. I am beyond grateful for an amazing day and for Above and Beyond making it go off without a hitch!“

“Food was delicious and plenty of it. Staff was on time they set up and tore it down. Leftovers were boxed up for us. Would highly recommend Great experience 👍👍“

“Look No Further! Best pulled pork we have ever had- and we've tried many! Their yummy smokiness is hands-down delicious. Roger was kind, cordial and prompt. We had a funeral luncheon to cater, and Roger graciously accommodated us in a very short time frame. Give him a try - he will NOT disappoint!“

“We were so swamped with visitors, I never got a chance to even SEE the food table, much less eat?at our event this evening! As we were packing up, I asked people how the food is, and they all said it was wonderful! I’m home now, at ten pm putting away left overs, and sampling as I go. Everything is so much better than I expected! Can’t wait to sit down and enjoy! The church staff tells me Carole was so kind, and did such a wonderful job. I will use her over and over again!“

“Donkey catering knocked it out of the park for our daughter's wedding! Their food, service, friendliness, and attention to detail all exceeded our expectations. We received many compliments at the wedding, but far and away the most frequent compliment was on the FOOD and SERVICE STAFF! Look no further for your caterer - Donkey will be the best decision you'll make for your next event!“

“Instead of sitting in the waiting room for 2 hrs at Corewell while waiting for my daughter’s appt, I decided to walk to Martha’s. I haven’t been there in years! The pretty blonde lady that greeted me as I walked in was very friendly. They have a great selection in the deli and I will def go back to check some things out. However at the time, I just wasn’t in the mood for anything there . As I was walking out, the same lady asked me a couple of questions. I just kinda explained that I was kinda hungry but didn’t know what I wanted. She suggested the place next door. I didn’t know they were owned by the same people. I was just amazed by the wonderful customer service with her and with the other couple of ppl I encountered!“

“Whitney from Gilmore Catering worked to provide the salads for our recent strolling dinner. Not only were both salad options delicious but they were both put together to beautifully. Whitney and the GC team were so great to work with. We will definitely use Gilmore Catering again!“

“Just stopped by grab some Southwestern soup and scones delicious! The menu looks awesome a must try they also serve most of the day give them a try. Support local“

“Evon & her staff are absolutely incredible! Du Jour Fine Catering provided brunch for my wedding and it was everything and more we could have hoped for. French toast was just one of the many amazing dishes served, our family couldn't stop talking about the food. Thank you for making our day so special. Highly recommend Evon if you are looking to cater any type of event! Thank you for everything.“

“I had a small wedding last week with 11 guest attending. They were a joy to work with, even created special menus for us and allowed us to bring in a cake. Everything was well planned and went great. Pics on the property are beautiful as well. Highly recommend for small groups and weddings!“

“Clean, fresh food! Traditional breakfast items with fresh fruit and veggies!“

“Great coffee, the owners and staff are wonderful. Go and check them out, you will be glad that you did. Five stars!“

“Birria was super flavorful and service was friendly!“

“I can’t believe I didn’t get on the Nourish train sooner. What a miss! I figured that ordering some of their meals would be convenient and tasty but it’s way better than anticipated - EVERY BITE has been *delicious*. From their house-made granola to the dinners to the chocolate chip cookies - the quality is incredible. We are so lucky to have them in Creston!“

“Such a beautiful venue and great staff!“

“I have ordered from 5 Knives several times for office meetings and every single time they are 100% accurate on the orders! Great food, great prices and even better service! 10/10!“

“We rented a Bumblebee Ice Cream Cart for our wedding instead of serving cake and it was a huge hit with our guests! The cart is so cute and a really fun and unique wedding dessert option. There were plenty of options to choose from so we had a great variety and they provided some dairy free and gluten free popsicles for guests that needed it. Amy was great to work with for coordinating everything. Delivery was easy and on time and we ended up returning the cart ourselves a few days later since we couldn't leave anything at the venue overnight which was a convenient option. Great experience!“

“As the year is coming to an end I would like to comment on what a great job Applause did for my daughter and son in law's wedding in July. Tyler and his staff went above and beyond to make sure everything went smoothly. We had many compliments from our guests on the food and staff. I would definitely recommend them and 5 stars.“
