I cannot recommend City Barbeque enough. From the first tasting to the day of and after, they made everything perfect for us. The credit card I had on file with them was cancelled the day before our wedding due to fraud and City Barbeque still showed up for us and didn’t even let me know about the issue until the next day as to not cause any additional stress on wedding day. It blows my mind that they would show up for us before we even had the opportunity to pay them! Both Brittany and Ashlee were so sweet and easy to work with, and all the food was delicious!!

We had City Barbeque delivered for lunch the day of our wedding. It was on time and was a great option so our bridal party and family were able to eat and not have to drive anywhere. The food was flavorful, hot and filling!

We used City BBQ for our wedding welcome party on October 25, 2024 at Hopfly Brewing.
City BBQ was super easy to work with and Brittany was awesome! Before we even signed a contract we were invited to come to the restaurant for a tasting to pick out exactly what we wanted for our menu.
City BBQ arrived on time and worked with us to make sure everything was set up how we wanted it. Would recommend City BBQ for your next event!

We found this vendor through The Knot on a whim and we are so glad we did! We had an exceptional experience with the City BBQ team and received great feedback from our guests. Brittany is a great communicator and we felt confident in our catering choice from the moment we did the tasting. We were a little worried about distance from our venue at first (Huntersville to Morganton, NC), but did not have any problems with food quality or delivery time. They are affordable, personable, and professional. It's worth it to do full service, and definitely get the banana pudding!

City Barbeque helped make the catering planning for our wedding easy and stress-free. All of the options as well as the free tasting made for a very individualized and personalized package. People always say you won't eat at your wedding, but booking with City Barbeque, they ensure that the bride and groom do enjoy their food! They made us a plate and delivered it so we could at least have a bit to eat! They also packaged us up a to-go bag to eat afterward with the kindest handwritten note on the bag. I cannot recommend them enough for your wedding or any catering event!

We cannot express how happy we are we chose city bbq for our wedding caterer! Firstly, Brittany was very responsive and I felt she guided us perfectly to ensure we had all of our information and had the right amount picked for dinner and desserts. Secondly, the caterers that came to our event gave very thoughtful effort in keeping the food fresh as our dinner was running behind. They were LITERALLY holding the food up close to the heaters to keep them warm during all the way too lengthy speeches. Thirdly, the compliments we got on how good the food was AMAZING! everyone talked about how good it was the entire weekend. Half of our guests’ favorite was he bone in chicken, the other half’s favorite was the brisket. Which means both were absolutely delicious and competed fairly with one another. The mac and cheese and the green beans were YUM! The caterers did a great job at cleaning up after AND they wrapped up and saved extra food so we could enjoy for lunch the next day without even knowing they did so!! Do yourself a favor, if you are having a wedding in North Carolina, give the people what they want and go with City Barbecue!

We used City BBQ for our wedding in North Carolina. Ordering was extremely easy. Luckily, City BBQ was knowledgeable of our event venue which made setup, service & breakdown that much easier.

Excellent service from the set up to the clean up. Great people to hire. They made a big plate of leftovers for the Bride and Groom to eat later. Also the appetizers and Lemonade/Tea stand was a hit. Would definitely hire again and recommend. Everything was fresh and delicious.

City BBQ was absolutely amazing! They have a great staff who communicated very well from the beginning! There were no surprises when it came to costs and they were very up front about all the prices and what our options were. The staff was on time and very professional! Overall everyone was absolutely amazing and the food was better than I could’ve imagined! All of our guests were very happy and went back for seconds! We love the city bbq team and are so happy we chose them for our special day!

Everything about the catering experience at City Barbecue was absolutely seamless! Brittany was responsive from first contact all the way to the day of the wedding. The food was delicious, well-displayed, and surprisingly affordable. There was plenty of food, and the team even packed up the leftovers for us to take home at the end of the night!

Everything about the process was seamless and easy! We came in for a tasting, the food was amazing and Brittany was so helpful and answered all questions. She also was very responsive between the tasting and the wedding, getting back to any emails/ texts/ calls answering all questions thoroughly. The wedding day was amazing! Will and Julia catered the event. The set up was perfect, everything was on time and all food was tasty and hot. Julia brought my husband and I plates and checked in on us throughout the meal. The cleanup was just as great and seamless. I can not say enough good things about City Barbecue catering our wedding!
