The food and professionalism the day of was great. However, everything leading up to our wedding was confusing and unclear, and it did not help we talked with 2 different representatives and were not sure who our point of contact was and there seemed to be little communication between the representatives who were handling our event. Because of this, we were surprised with a higher bill than we were anticipating by an extra 3k.
We were not super pleased with the price and poor commination as we felt we were given the run around by 2 different representatives during our planning process. We were not aware of some of the costs of our service until 2 weeks before the wedding because neither of the quotes we received from either representative made it clear we had to pay the whole guest count for multiple entrees, or an extra $1000 to keep the bar open until the end of our event (timeline of the day was discussed during our consultation, with the expectation the bar would be open later).

We went with This Little Piggy catering, which is a division of A'Britin. They did a phenomenal job with communication. They invited us to a gathering where we could try all of their foods and it really helped us solidify what we wanted at our wedding. BTW...Mac and Cheese is a MUST. I almost went without, but after trying it, I knew I had to have it. People were raving about the food and service. THANK YOU A'BRITIN!

A'Britin and their branch "This Little Piggy" absolutely delivered! We went through them for our wedding and the food, service and professionalism all exceeded our expectations. We had the pulled pork and Italian crusted chicken for our proteins and they were both so good. Lots of compliments from our guests as well!

We had a great experience with A’BriTin catering! Our coordinator was Katie and she made the experience smooth and easy! She was always so sweet and helpful!
We used This Little Piggy through them and the food was pretty good, we did a build your own sandwich bar with a salad and fruit! We had an issue with them not wanting to dismiss tables, but they took care of it and ended up dismissing for us vs our DJ. It worked out great! Our only complaint was how expensive everything was even though we chose one of the cheapest options.
Thank you to your team!

I cannot rave enough about A'Britin. From our very first interaction, James was so incredibly helpful and accomodating when it came to touring, learning about, and booking the venue. When the venue owner backed out, they worked with us to get into another venue and no additional charge because it wasn't our fault or A'Britin's fault. Their booking process is so great, communication is amazing, anytime I had a question I received an answer within a half hour. They are so organized, well put together, friendly, helpful... I would recommend them to anyone. Our day was incredible!!

ABriTin Catering was the preferred vendor through our wedding venue. We chose to go through their branch “This Little Piggy” for our wedding day food. Their website is very easy to navigate and we highly appreciated the budget calculator in determining costs for our food.
Months before our wedding ABriTin hosted us at a private taste testing down in Farmington with a variety of food options of our choosing. We really liked having the opportunity to do this to ensure we were making the right selections for our big day. Definitely attend a taste test (whether it be private or at a big event) this will help clear up any questions you may have, try the food, etc.)
Throughout the months leading up to our wedding, there was great communication from Jessica Lohr at ABriTin. Jessica was professional, personable, and very helpful through this process.
On our wedding day, This Little Piggy showed up well before the reception to set up their buffett-style tables. While our guests enjoyed their food, the catering staff was very attentive; asking guests/us & our bridal party if we needed anything as well as cleaning up as guests finished their food. There was enough food for everyone at the wedding, but we did run our of mashed potatoes for the last two tables. Even though this happened, we still received a ton of compliments on how delicious everything was.
We would recommend This Little Piggy for anyone looking for a food vendor for their wedding.

Major disappointment all around! We had to use A'BriTin catering company for our wedding due to the partnership they have with the venue. Our venue was absolutely perfect but had I known this was going to be my experience with the catering company, we would have chosen a different venue completely. We ordered "grilled chicken breast seasoned with a granny smith apple relish, candied pecans, cranberries, and a citrus vinaigrette." No where in this description does it say cilantro or indicate there will be a cilantro puree covering the chicken. Their "citrus vinaigrette" is NOT a citrus vinaigrette in any way. There was also no pecans whatsoever nor cranberries. As the bride, I didn't get to eat at my own wedding because not only was the description wrong, but the staff didn't know what they were even serving. The chicken was also cold for some guests and dry for others. Bottom line, this catering company is now changing the description of this entree because of this ordeal and yet refusing to give a reasonable refund. We signed the contract expecting a certain entree and what was provided was not that. Very disappointing since this was a major impact on my wedding day.

LOVED working with A’Britin catering for our wedding at Hope Glen Farm! Everyone was so pleasant and they went above and beyond to give us the perfect menu. Our guests raved about the food - it was hot, tasty, and filling. Highly recommend the pretzel bar for a late night snack - big hit of the night!

We worked with this caterer through the Round Barn Farm for our wedding and ABSOLUTELY LOVED the food! We enjoyed a tasting event beforehand and it sealed the deal! Both the vegetarian ravioli and beef short rib were equally praised by our guests! They were easy to work with and we’d recommend them to anyone!!

A'Britin was amazing to work with for our backyard wedding! James was incredible to work with, he answered all my questions and concerns. The day of staff was great, they even helped me turn on all of my lights and lanterns. They were very professional. I would highly recommend them for a backyard wedding.

The buffet was cleaned up when everyone barely had a chance to eat. We also paid for hosted bar service. We never agreed upon a time to shut off the hosted bar. The night of our wedding, the bartenders were telling people that WE requested the service be shut off at a certain time. We DID NOT agree to a set time. It was never discussed with us. We called to try and resolve this issue, and were met with a “too bad so sad” attitude. HIGHLY DO NOT RECOMMEND. Their customer service is TERRIBLE. All they care about is being overpriced.

From start to finish our experience was good with ABritin (Apples 2 Apples)! Always answered questions/concerns quickly and made sure to go at our pace with everything. The food on our day was fresh and everyone seemed to love it!

Food was hot, food was fresh, food was delicious. Staff was friendly, staff was on top of it, staff was fun!
A'Britin was great for our wedding-they were able to accommodate allergies and kept our guests informed with what was (or was not) allergy friendly. The food was fresh and constantly replenished since we did buffet style. They were great to work with. We planned an out of state wedding so it was nice of them to accommodate us when we were actually in town.

We decided to get married at Creekside Farm Wedding and Events, and as they have an exclusive contract with A'Britin Catering they were the only company we were able to use to cater our wedding. To be completely honest, this would not have been my first choice for catering services. However, after expressing some disappointment following our first tasting, the company went out of their way to schedule a second tasting free of charge. We worked with Abby, who was SO helpful. She was friendly, communicative, responsive, and worked with us to create a menu we were happy with.

I am a meeting planner for my profession, so I deal with a lot of vendors, but from day one it was a nightmare with this company. Unless you want a roasted pig on a spike at your wedding, their food is insanely expensive for what you get. I decided to upgrade to "stations" so I could have a mashed potato martini bar at my wedding (always dreamed of that!) and it was so disappointing when I finally saw it. it was still buffet style, just with martini glasses set out in front. The presentation completely lacked. I thought there would be someone serving them and it be behind a cute bar or something... nope. Just mashed potatoes in a chafer that you topped yourself. Not worth the extra thousands spent. During our conversations before the wedding, their customer service was horrendous- about a month before the wedding, we had decided to add on the open bar- they charged us over 200 dollars extra, just for me to pay for my guests drinks. They said it was because they had to "cut up the fruit and put a special keg on the truck" would they not have had lemons and limes for cocktails if I wasn't paying for everyone's drinks? This charge was already on my bill originally, and now added again because I was adding an open bar... Just watch what you pay for with this company- I was forced to use them through the venue we decided on, so I had to leverage to say no and go with someone else. The food tasted pretty good, which is the only reason for the second star.

Jake and I got married at Legacy Hill Farm almost two weeks ago! A’Britin Catering did an amazing job of setting up the tables with dinner plates, silverware and napkins. It was exactly what I told them. The food was unbelievable. Melt in your mouth goodness. We were happy from the first consult to the wedding day. They asked thorough questions and made sure the day was just as we envisioned. My only suggestion would be to allow guests to go for seconds when served buffet style. Overall though, spectacular!

Abby at A'Britin did a great job! There were some hick-ups with their customer service at the beginning of our process but she more than made it up to us! We did our tasting on my birthday and they made it extra special, which i will never forget! The only reason i cannot give 5 stars here is that the plated meals for the wedding party were not warm when we got them, which was pretty disappointing since I was starving and footed the bill.
The bartenders were amazing!!!!!!!!!! They put up with a lot from our group but i know they made out pretty well in the end too! Special thanks to those guys for keeping everyone in line as best they could!
