John Serock Catering

fresh drink was delivered to me without even asking!), and the planning process was incredibly low-stress. We planned (and re-planned) our wedding during COVID from a different state, and the Serock team was incredibly flexible with our limited time in PA to coordinate pick ups for food tastings. Cassidy is quite possibly the main reason our wedding ran as smoothly as it did. She answered all of my countless questions in the months leading up to the wedding, coordinated all of our decor set up and tear down, and even had someone run out for white wine when we realized far too late that our beverage distributor had given us the wrong alcohol. Every detail was truly thought about, and no box was left unchecked - thank you!

the name. Not only was the food delicious at the tasting as well as night-of (seriously people were raving during, and I’ve gotten multiple texts and emails asking for our caterer’s name in the days following), but John was the epitome of patience and professionalism throughout the 3+ years it took us to actually walk down the aisle. (My first email to John was 8/2/18 and due to Covid, our ACTUAL wedding date was 8/7/21 lol). John himself is extremely knowledgeable about all things wedding, as well as all types of bar and cuisine concerns and his staff were just LOVELY through and through. Do yourself a favor and hire John Serock Catering for your wedding or big event.

d from so many of our guests that went out of their way to complement the quality of the food including one friend who is a professional chef. But the food is just the beginning of the serock experience. We used them at appleford for our reception, so they were also the event planner. They were incredible, and worked so hard to accommodate us when we had some Covid related challenges. They were hands-down worth every penny and went out of their way to make sure that we had a great experience. Great food, great team, great attitudes, they are all around a great catering company. Thanks John for both you and your team’s hard work leading up to and during our reception!!!

nough for her efforts to make the day run smoothly and to the entire staff for providing our guests with a great experience.

oing because those nerves went away extremely fast! The food is unbelievably delicious. All of our wedding guests are still raving about it to this day. And the fact that they wrapped us up to-go boxes of every appetizer, station meal, and all 3 entrees we had was amazing. Kristy was our day of coordinator and honestly our savior. She was so easy to communicate with, answered all our questions, and we would've been a mess without her the day of our wedding. The staff was so nice and helpful, including the server who was assigned to us (a nice perk). I wish I could give 10 stars for how amazing everything went. Thank you Kristy, thank you Serock! I will dream of your delicious food forever haha.

through everything for wedding last month. Our reception went better than we could've ever hoped for and our guests still rave about the food! We consider John a good friend now and hope to use him for future events! Don't hesitate to book him for yours!

he went above and beyond to make sure all of the decorations and florals were set up according to my description. Not only that, but she also coordinated everyone, down to spacing out my bridesmaids evenly as they walked down the aisle. The entire day was a breeze thanks to her and the John Serock team. Not to mention, the food was INCREDIBLE and received so many compliments the entire night (especially the short rib!). My only regret was forgetting to take the leftovers from my dad's house! Thank you so so much Rachael and the John Serock team who assisted at my wedding!

John Serock also took care of all the linens, which looked fabulous in our location. But what really solidified them as a top notch vendor to us was that even though our wedding was in June 2021, they were extremely accommodating to us changing our guest total so late in the game due to COVID. Our only minor criticism would be the time it took between salads and entrees. My husband and I felt it was a little longer than normal, but when later talking to our guests they all advised that they didn't even notice and it gave them time to go get another drink! Overall, the food is amazing (get the dumpling appetizers!), the presentation was on point, and the service from both Kristy beforehand, and the staff the day of was uncomparable. You can tell the pride everyone took in working for John Serock and it really showed both in service and in the food. Please, book them for your wedding or event!

t with anything and everything (like umbrellas when it started to rain before our ceremony). We ended up deciding to postpone our wedding to a Thursday and they worked with us and kept us positive and organized through that postponed year. We are all about the cocktail hour and ended up having to get family pictures after the ceremony due to weather and the Serock team had two servers bring us drinks and apps and cater to us so we didn’t miss out. They also had teams waiting with drinks on trays to take after our guests just got rained on during the ceremony which everyone loved. Everything was so amazing and we couldn’t be happier with the food, service and everything Serock did for us!

sary to have a great celebration and executed it perfectly. Guests have still been raving to us about how the food was the best they’ve ever had at a wedding and we agree! When we weren’t able to try all the appetizers during our cocktail hour and desserts at our reception since we were so busy greeting guests, John and his team packed up boxes of everything for us to take home. It was such a thoughtful touch! Our servers were so friendly and made sure we always had drinks and snacks. Hiring John Serock was the best decision we made in all of our wedding planning!

several times, and we also had to make a last minute change in venue. The team at John Serock was with us the entire time, they were incredibly flexible and always accomodating. The food was incredible; I can tell you that every guest remarked on the high quality delectable food, everything from the unique hor d'oeuvres to the incredible duck and short rib entrees. They took the time to cater to our specific requests, and consistently impressed us with the final product. We would highly recommend John Serock catering for any of your special events!

r, was absolutely outstanding and went above and beyond to make the entire process a breeze. She was incredibly responsive and makes you feel like you are her only priority. From the second we met John, Rachael and the Serock team at our tasting we knew we couldn’t go wrong. Their food is arguably better than many 5-star restaurants in the Philadelphia area and the presentation of it is beautiful and our guests could not stop raving about it. A perfect example of John going above and beyond - we had asked them if they could serve limoncello at the end of the night if we provided it. . without any hesitation, John offered to make homemade limoncello for us and serve it at the wedding. Their willingness to work with you and create your “perfect day” is unparalleled. Look no further if you have the opportunity to book with John Serock Catering - you will have no regrets. THANK YOU SEROCK TEAM!!

ll. Working with Cassidy was a pleasure. She was calm, patient, attentive, quite knowledgeable, and very responsive to our questions and concerns. I'd use Serock Catering again without hesitation.

y was an angel who helped with absolutely everything. I asked her opinion on seating to decorations to food options. She basically acted as my wedding planner and I am forever grateful! She also was so calm, cool, and collected at all times. Even when it was going to thunderstorm and pretty much change every plan we had for the set up for the day she was so calm and made me feel confident that everything would be amazing. Thank you so much Cassidy!! You were such a calming presence throughout the planning process and the day of! Also the food was so good! We went for our tasting and were seriously blown away by the food! The catering team the day of was so awesome and we had our own server who made sure we had some food and a drink in hand at all times. I am kicking myself for not knowing her name but thank you to all the servers! It seriously was an amazing experience from start to finish and we would recommend the entire John Serock team to anyone getting married!

food was. So many people say you don’t eat/drink at your own wedding, but that was not the case for us at all! During pictures someone brought us a tray of hors d'oeuvres and someone was always there to fill our drinks. When we almost ran out of vodka (our fault), John sent someone out for us. The entire staff was positive and accommodating. On a more personal note, we dealt with a family tragedy the week before our wedding. We were unsure if we were going to proceed, and I cannot thank John enough for how he kindly handled the situation. Between this and the pandemic, our wedding should have been incredibly stressful but John continuously put us at ease. You will not find a better caterer in the area and I wholeheartedly recommend John and his amazing staff.

to make some minor adjustments for cocktail hour due to Covid-19, but you never would have known with the quality of service provided by Serock. The bartenders mixed up delicious drinks, with tons of drinks ready to be handed out to guests immediately after the ceremony. Our guests raved about our signature drinks, which Serock made perfectly and were such a nice touch for the day. Kristy was there every step of the way to make sure all the details we envisioned came to life, and to also make the day run so smoothly. Our wedding party commented on how easy and relaxed the day was from start to finish, which really speaks to Kristy's organization and attention to detail. My personal favorite touch was when Kristy delivered a final round of drinks to my husband and me on the dancefloor when it was last call at the bar :) Overall, wee couldn't have asked for a better experience with Serock!

We were really impressed with the company overall but the FOOD IS AMAZING. Our guests had a different requirements/health restrictions/preferences and there was something for everyone but people were RAVING about the food. I'll never forget my grandmother, who, when I called a week after the wedding, the very first compliment she gave was how delicious the food was and I was beaming! We admire how Serock is also very much involved in the community and shared a lot of the same values we had. We were so thankful to have found such a wonderful company to cater our wedding and we couldn't recommend them enough!

back from our guests that the food was amazing. They loved all of our hors d'oeuvres and the main entrees. Some guests said that it was the best wedding food they'd ever had! John Serock's staff was just as impressive as the food. They asked me and my husband what we wanted to drink for dinner and had the drinks sitting at our table for when we sat down. They also saved a plate of hors d'oeuvres for us because we missed cocktail hour for pictures. Lastly, they packed up one of each entree, hors d'oeuvres, and desserts for us to take home with us. I wouldn't have wanted to work with any other caterer for my wedding. John Serock Catering was amazing!!!

hey have ever had at a wedding! The entire staff was amazing from our first encounter at the tasting to the day of our wedding. Kristy was an absolute delight to work with. She was kind, responsive and so understanding. Anything we wanted to have at our wedding, she made happen without any hesitation or doubt. We had to reschedule twice, so to say we were stressed was an understatement. Every time I spoke to Kristy, she was always positive and reassured me it will all work out. I always felt better after hearing back from her. I would 10/10 recommend that everyone use John Serock. You will not be disappointed.

ng. I never needed to ask for them they were so on top of everything and were so stealthy that you didn’t even notice. I basically had my own attendant - this amazing kind woman Patricia kept checking in on me to see if I wanted anything. John also took amazing care of us through the night. My husband and I were laughing when we went to our cake tasting- the guy was asking us who we were working with and when we told him his response was “ THEEEEEEEEE JOHN SEROCK?!?!?!?” And now we 50000% understand why. John made our night so amazing. He is so organized, professional, and personable. He made our lives SO easy throughout the process. Communication was seamless. HIGHLY recommended to anyone interested in having an event. John made our wedding and memories and our lives amazing. Thank you John. The food and service and timeline and whole event was so amazing. We are so blessed that you were our caterer!

other, and I were all blown away by how good the food was. We were so excited to have a winter themed wedding in December starting with Serock's butternut squash soup! Unfortunately we had to postpone from December to April. However, Kristy stayed in contact with me the whole time and we were able to still have our winter themed dinner in April (soup and all!!) Even though the postponement, I never felt like anything fell through the cracks. The food was some of the best food I have ever tasted, especially the desserts. And food aside, the service was excellent. Kristy was on site for rehearsal and acted as a day of coordinator. I did not have to worry about anything. I was able to enjoy my day because I knew everything was being handled through Serock and our venue. I cannot say enough good things about Kristy and the Serock team. Thank you all for giving us the perfect wedding day!

is incredible staff. He treated working with us like he was planning a wedding for family. From the jump, John as a human is down to earth, easy to talk to, accommodating, a phenomenal listener, and has a wealth of experience. As a professional, he handles everything, and thinks of everything: Food: his food is TO DIE FOR, and not just like one or two signature dishes -- he has range (important as my husband and I are vegetarians, but we have family that think a meal isn’t complete without “meat”) and literally everything we ate was unreal. He boxed he has all the tools and software to make communicating (especially during COVID) super easy. Staff: They were perfect and so lovely. We had a waitstaff dedicated to our head table/our hip who (unobtrusively) made sure that we constantly had fresh drinks and snacks if we wanted them all through photos, and dinner. The rest of the staff was super efficient, professional, and almost invisible in the best way. They moved our speakers from outside to inside (ceremony → dinner) Planning: From the first moment we talked, he was immediately willing to talk about what we needed or didn’t need as though he was planning a wedding for his niece. We were doing a crazy thing planning a wedding for COVID times, and he helped us navigate the waters of -- do we pay a deposit to tent the lawn? Will legislation let us host inside? For how many people? What rentals do we need? Ugh it was a seeming nightmare but he handled it cooly, with information, and without making us pay a single unnecessary dollar. All of the tables, chairs, linens, heaters, etc. were rented through John. He coordinated it all and made it so, so easy. John has the software to make planning easy; allseated, his guest list and floorplan software, let us control the guest list and seating and have a say in the layout of the venue for the day-of, and also provided a place where he could give us expert advice on the flow of things. He wouldn’t let us make poor choices, and thought of everything from the guest perspective. Event Logistics: Because our wedding was during COVID we didn’t have dancing and therefore decided to forgo a DJ/band and didn’t have an emcee. But you wouldn’t have known. John and his staff kept the event perfectly on schedule and helped usher people about the venue for ceremony, cocktails, and dinner. They kept us on schedule throughout dinner and speeches, and were literally perfect. I booked John with the venue Loch Aerie Mansion, and their event designer Elizabeth. He was part of the dream team that made the event come to life and works seamlessly with the others. With that trio, you cannot go wrong One million stars for John Serock + crew

r to our event. She helped us think of everything, big and small, from the layout of our entire day, down to which linens to use! All of their staff were professional, friendly, and reliable, especially during the COVID pandemic. They made our day flow seamlessly. We wanted to add signature drinks as well as a hot cider station, and Serock provided all of the ingredients. We still hear about how everyone absolutely loved the appetizers and their meals! Serock also packaged up extra meals for us to enjoy the following day. We truly could not have asked for a better caterer, and we will always highly recommend John Serock. An amazing caterer is such a key part to a wedding, and we can't thank you enough!

ped us make a timeline for the day that made everything go smoothly. The staff was so friendly and even brought my husband and I drinks and horderves while we were getting our pictures done. It was a nice way to still be able to enjoy cocktail hour!

tant thing (other than my husband haha) because I know that's what guests remember/talk about the most. From the charcuterie board that was sent into both of our suites while getting ready, to the AMAZING cocktail hour, and the main course meals, I CANNOT pick my favorite. Our main dishes were filet mignon, crab cakes and butternut squash lasagna. Even our guests were saying how they doubted the filet would be cooked "right" knowing it was for a larger crowd- however they all left that night, with a smile on their face, tummy full, saying how that was the BEST meal they've had. Even the butternut squash was delicious. I had the best time not only because of John Serock's food but also because of the STAFF. Kristy was our event coordinator and she literally made everything FLAWLESS and EASY. I loved working with Kristy along with our special server, I believe her name is Violet. The staff was just as amazing from the VERY BEGINNING (food tasting, phone calls, etc.) to the very end. As busy as I was greeting my guests, the staff ensured Jim and I still got to eat and enjoy ourselves. I requested to have a dish of the appetizers at my dinner table (since I couldn't have enough) and when I got there, it was all there!!! Even the food I didn't get to finish eating, they were all kind enough to pack it for me to go. I seriously felt like a queen that night and it was because of Serock's outstanding staff. Thank you SO MUCH for making our night SO EASY AND SO FUN and memorable. IT was literally perfect. Thank you!

my Puerto Rican heritage. They turned out DELICIOUS (especially that empanada which i still dream about!). When we got to cocktail hour, they made sure to send waiters to find us so that we could try all of the delicious hor d’ouvres while we chatted with guests. The main course was so delicious as well and guests raves about the creativity of the dishes. Serock also created a make your own churro bar for us, which guests LOVED. At the end of the night, Serock sent each guest home with a hoagie which was most appreciated by our younger crowd. I should also mention that the specialty drinks they prepared (named after our cats!) were a hit! Every guest we talked to said that this was the best wedding food that they had ever eaten. I highly recommend the Serock team for any future wedding or event you have planned.

g about the food and service! We will definitely be working with them again in the future

thly, that at the end of the night, I had to ask her if there were any hiccups that I should be aware of! We requested some hors d’oeuvres for cocktail hour that were not on the menu, and they were able to accommodate all of our requests! Dinner was amazing – our guests continue to rave about how this was “the best wedding food they’ve had”. All entrees were delicious, and most importantly, served hot! Although I did not get to try the desserts (too busy dancing!), our guests said they were delicious. The bartenders did a great job with our signature drinks as well. Above all, Kristy made sure that my husband and I had everything we needed throughout the entire night.

s our weekly lifesaver as she guided us through the process seamlessly and made a stressful wedding season less taxing through her kindness and communication. Cassidy and the whole John Serock team made sure everything was in order leading up to and on our wedding day, and everything went perfectly! I loved that my family was able to fully enjoy the day without a single worry in the world. And of course the food was phenomenal and our guests could not say enough good things! Over a month after our wedding and we are still receiving messages about how great the food and service was! I would recommend working with Cassidy and John Serock again and again! Thank you guys so much!

perfect from start to finish because Serock managed every detail with care and professionalism!

We updated from a ballroom wedding with 100 guests to a backyard wedding with our parents, siblings, and 4 close friends. We reached out to John Serock Catering just a little over month before our wedding and they were timely and considerate from that point on as we picked menus and pulled everything together last minute. On the day of the wedding, they set out our decorations for us outside under a tent in the pouring down rain - a tent that was about 30’ further away from where we had previously intended. They set a plate of hors d’oeuvres and signature drinks for my husband and I to enjoy before being introduced, and the bartender quickly and quietly mopped the muddy dance floor just before our grand entrance. They went above and beyond making accommodations for inclement wether and implementing safety precautions for COVID. Each staff member was professional and efficient! The food was beautiful & everything tasted amazing (even left over the next day). Since it was a backyard reception, they cleaned everything up, loaded our china into the dishwasher for cleaning and set out s’mores which were enjoyed long after they left. They are incredible at what they do and I would recommend them in a heartbeat!

at ease from the day we met her, and she nailed every detail -- even down to replicating a recipe for our signature drink. Everyone loved their meals, too. Thank you, Rachael--and the entire Serock team--for everything!

excellent, we received many compliments on it--and Cassidy, our planner, made sure the ceremony, reception, and whole event went perfectly to plan. Cannot recommend enough!

very responsive, especially during the current COVID ordeal. She ensured us that everything would run smoothly and having her as a day of coordinator was fantastic. We would have never though to hire a day of coordinator on our own, so to have Kristy was a HUGE plus. She was fantastic at running through things at our rehearsal and then keeping things moving on the wedding day. We can't thank you enough for helping to make our day so special! The food was absolutely amazing, many of our guests came up to tell us how much they enjoyed the appetizers and their meals. We also had a waiter that stayed with us during pictures after the ceremony to bring drinks and food to myself, my husband, and our bridal party which was great! We would highly recommend you hire Serock for our special day!

s with Kristy right off the bat. She was in constant communication with us every step of the way and was so incredibly helpful during the planning process. In the midst of planning our wedding during a pandemic, Kristy was there when we needed it. On our wedding day, Serock Catering completely exceeded our expectations. I knew everything was going to be taken care of and that everything would run smoothly with their support. Their servers were so incredibly kind and attentive to our needs! Every time we turned around, there was somebody asking us if there was anything we needed. I would highly recommend Serock for your wedding day! Delicious food, incredible service, and amazing at what they do!

ich was so important given the sacrifices she had to make to adhere to the restrictions imposed by Gov. Wolfe. Thank you from the depths of my heart for being a part of my daughter's big day!

to us -(bride and groom) and made sure that everything we wanted was taken care of throughout the night. Post apps and pre dinner, but can we shove apps in our faces as we wait for our introductions? Absolutely. Make sure we have enough cake and got dessert? You got it. The Serock team made our wedding go flawlessly with some amazing food (the steak with chimichirri sauce was cooked to PERFECTION, and so was the peach grilled chicken). Couldn’t ask for better service or food quality. And left the kitchen and prep area spotless when they departed. Thank you to the whole team! You truly made our day special!

, I had more than just the average questions. I was asking all the ins and outs of their processes, details, menus, food preparation, etc., and she answered every single one of them with grace. A few weeks before our wedding, my husband and I drove to PA from NJ to have our final meeting with Kristy and Miranda from The Barn at Silverstone. Every detail was discussed, reviewed and planned to ensure we made all the necessary decisions and were all on the same page with everything. We had a handful of guests with food allergies and they made sure that each particular guest received the proper meals. The staff was so attentive and responsive to any request. Our head server Skylar, was wonderful and took care of us the whole night. Kristy and her team took care of so much, from setting up our decorations to helping coordinate the ceremony and my arrival on a traditional Amish horse and buggy. I worried about nothing that day; and coming from someone who worked in the business for 7 years, that says a lot. It was truly perfection! Six months later, guests are still raving about our wedding - the service, flow of the the day and of course the food. We are so grateful for all of the staff for making our day the best day of our lives! We feel so lucky to have had Kristy and Serock Catering serve our guests! -Mallory and Patrick 10/13/19

know :-) ). The staff were all so friendly, professional and quick! Everything from our signature drinks to the appetizers and main course were wonderful. Our guests are still complimenting the food (short ribs, herbed chicken and butternut squash lasagna). They even supplied our wedding cake through The Master Baker (also phenomenal). We are so happy we decided to use Serock Catering for our special day.

an amazing job making sure the day went smoothly. We're really happy with our choice to use this caterer. Highly recommend!

our, and there was plenty of staffing throughout the evening. An amazing caterer and would use them again without hesitation!

ccommodate us! Rachael, who is an event specialist for John Serock was outstanding. Her attention to detail and communication skills were wonderful. It was an absolute pleasure working with Rachael. Her insight and suggestions were always appreciated and most helpful. I have worked with many caterers over the the years, and by far John Serock catering is the best hands down! Now on to the food...John prepared a sit down dinner for 65 people and our guests were very pleased with the food. It was absolutely 5 star quality of taste and presentation. Service was like clock work. Again, let me say, I’m a very detailed person to a fault and if I could I would give higher than 5 stars!! Thank you John Serock catering for a night we will never forget. You made our daughter’s dream of getting married at her childhood home a reality.

further. From that first meeting and delicious tasting through our wedding night, everything was perfect. Kristy was responsive and kind throughout our crazy planning months. The day of the wedding, our guests raved about the food (the cowboy steak melts in your mouth), the bartenders were so friendly and Sarah was wonderful in making sure our bridal party was fed (including leaving me an entire plate of arancini on our sweetheart table). Of course as bride & groom we did not eat nearly as much as we would've wanted to during our crazy day, but the team packed up containers for us to take with us. We got to enjoy all the wonderful appetizers and desserts at our after party! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for everything you all did to make our day so wonderful!

her attention to detail and hard work. Most importantly, John Serock’s food is absolutely delicious! Our families are still talking about how delicious everything was (especially the steak!) The bartenders were also excellent and made amazing margaritas. We are so very happy we chose John Serock Catering! PS – make sure to order as many oreo bombs as you can fit in the venue, you won’t regret it.

G as well! We had SO many compliments on the food at our wedding! They have many options to choose from and all of them are so so delicious! The staff was so so nice and made sure to ask me and my husband if we needed anything. The bartenders did some extra research for our bar game (a DND inspired dice roll) and our guests LOVED how interactive they were! We can't say enough about John Serock Catering & definitely HIGHLY recommend them! Thank you so much!!!!

really took the time to be sure our day was perfect. Our guests said it was the best food they’ve ever had! I cannot recommend Cassidy and Serock enough, thank you SO much for creating a day we will never forget!!

easy for us, from the quick communication, the tasting, answering all of my crazy questions & then helping us throw an incredible wedding, she is exceptional! Now onto the food .. I have never tasted more delicious, mouthwatering food in my life. I’m definitely not alone with this statement, because all the guests from our wedding are still raving about it too! The filet mignon cut like butter, the appetizers were fresh & plentiful (get the chicken & waffles). Don’t get me started on the huge dessert table display, which was a dessert lovers dream! But let me get to the most important part, which is the John Serock Catering team. From the bartender, the waiters, the chefs, Cassidy - your hard work, kindness & professionalism made me the most grateful bride that day/night. I had no worry in the world because I knew you all had our back. Thank you so, so much for making 10/19/19 a night we will never forget. To anyone who needs a caterer, look no further than John Serock Catering, you won’t regret it!

g and checked in with both of us throughout the day of our wedding and made sure that the day went off without even the slightest hiccup. Sydney our personal server for the evening was so sweet and always available to offer any beverages or food to my husband and I. I was honestly expecting not to be able to eat much of anything with having to take pictures during cocktail hour but the servers made sure that they brought hors d'oeurves to our entire bridal party while we were taking pictures. We were completely blown away by the entrees as well. All of the food was so amazing and came out hot! Everyone that attended our wedding was extremely satisfied with their food and could not stop talking about it! Between the wonderful service and the beyond amazing food John Serock Catering is by far the best choice for wedding catering.

usly booked them and were not disappointed. The food is amazing and our guests raved about it all night. I read a previous review where someone made that comment and I thought it was a bit silly because I hardly remember a wedding or event where the food stood out above many other things, but it is true and it happened at our wedding too. Kristy really came through for us on the day of the wedding and we had an awesome waitress Violet who made sure the bride and groom always had a drink or something to eat. We were so thankful for the additional meals that were packed for us too. It was truly a memorable experience from the catering through to the last hour of the night. Thank you John Serock. I would book you a million times over!

nication, efficiency, and trust were key for us, and John exceeded our expectations. Every email was answered within 24 hours, he was flexible with us combining tastings and planning meetings to make our trips to West Chester efficient, and his staff were absolute rockstars on our big day working to make sure everything went smoothly. They seamlessly coordinated with the venue and our other vendors and kept the whole day on time to the schedule we agreed on a few weeks earlier. A server was assigned to us and she was awesome -- she made sure we always had a drink in our hand, came by with appetizers, and even made us a plate from the buffet. And the food was DELICIOUS! We still get compliments from our guests even a month later!

nication to the wedding day everything felt so personal. We felt like we could speak to John and his crew like family members! Being from our area of course some of them even knew each other! The food was AMAZING and the service was impeccable. My husband and I felt like royalty. The servers knew when you needed something without you needing to ask. I would recommend Serock to anyone looking for an amazing crew who aims to please through outstanding food and amazing, personable service. Five stars to John and his crew! Let’s do it all over again!

ktail hour appetizers. We appreciated Cassidy answering all of our emails with questions in a timely manner as well as giving her feedback on decisions we weren't sure about. (I should mention that we live in California, so coordinating with the time difference was challenging but Cassidy was so flexible.) The day of, all of the staff were wonderful to work with, and it was so helpful having Cassidy there to coordinate everything including set up, bridal party walking for the ceremony, timing of the evening, and breaking everything down. We had a great experience and would highly recommend!

moothly. They even send you have with complete meals of each entree, desserts, and appetizers which is perfect for the end of the night when you realized you didn’t eat enough! All linens, table and barware, and clean up was included in the price :) would definitely recommend using Serock!

s. Cassidy was a pleasure to work with during the pretty much 1 year process of our engagement and planning the wedding. She is very organized, and so am I so she did a great job answering all my questions and being very responsive. The setup looked very nice, and their team worked really hard the day of the wedding. The only reason I give 4 and not 5 is the day of there were some snags. Our toast and first dance got completely messed up because most of our guests were told to take seats in other rooms. The scheduled had been decided on and reviewed but when the day came it seemed like it hadn't been completely followed or understood. The spacing of the tables wasn't great, and other attention to details issues. All in all, they did a great job and we had the best day ever. My only suggestion is to make sure the on site team and management / coordinator is aware of everything that was discussed in the 1 year of planning so some details (big or small) are not missed.

hel, our day of coordinator, made my life soooo much easier. She absolutely went above and beyond the duties of a caterer . She was basically a wedding planner through the whole process and the day of made sure that everyone was where they needed to be and my husband and I were taken care of and not worried about anything. We got married at Power Plant in Old City Philadelphia and Rachel was very knowledgeable of the venue and worked with the staff there directly to coordinate everything. 3. The serving staff and bartenders were incredibly efficient. I couldn’t believe how quickly they replenished the apps, got dinner turned over, and that there was never a line at the bar. 4. You get a lot of bang for your buck. Overall so worth it and would work with them again in a heart beat.

he multitude of mini-dessert options) and phone calls, Kristy helped make planning this critical part of the reception a total breeze. After the tasting, we knew we had found the perfect caterer. As a couple who is environmentally conscious, and who likes farm-to-table style restaurants, Serock was ideal. The food was delicious and of excellent quality, and many guests commented on how they actually liked our food. (They didn’t even use the qualifier “for wedding food” when talking about how good it was!) We also had Serock cater the brunch the following morning. To do this, Kristy had to work with the hotel we were using, which was no easy task given that the hotel changed management shortly before the wedding. She even went over in person to view the space! The food was delicious as well. I also want to remark on the omelette station, which was delicious and had efficient chefs who ensured that the omelette line never got too long.

h him and his team. He is the owner of Serock Catering, but he is the most down-to-earth owner and he made sure that he talked to all the couples at that open house, which was much appreciated. We could not be happier with Cassidy, who was our event specialist. She was always on top of things, answered all our questions promptly and managed our wedding the minute we met her until the very last minute of our wedding night. She was such a delight to work with and the sweetest person ever! She even beautifully decorated our wedding cake with the extra fresh flowers we had. We were so lucky to have worked with Cassidy because she took all our worries away. Our guests raved about the food and service with comments like, "The food was amazing!", "We felt like VIP's when all the servers lined up with cocktails and hors d'oeuvres as they welcomed us at cocktail hour!", "The entrees were so delicious and they came out warm too!", "The servers were so polite and professional!", etc. The list of compliments received made us feel real good because food was one of the most important factors for our wedding. Not only was the food delicious, but they were displayed beautifully from the seafood bar to the charcuterie table to the dessert table. We cannot thank John Serock Catering, Cassidy and the staff enough for a job well done!

get to work with. When we had our first meeting, we were able to try several foods to then narrow down the perfect selections for our wedding day. Kristy acted as our coordinator on our wedding day, which was such a weight lifted from our shoulders. She made sure everything got setup exactly as we wanted, and she made sure everything was coordinated with all other vendors. From beginning to end of the reception, the service was outstanding. We were brought food and drinks while waiting during the cocktail hour and throughout the night we never had an empty glass or needed to ask for a thing. Someone was there before we could even ask. Each and every staff member was so professional and friendly, and they took care of any needs by us or our guests with big smiles on their faces. Every single person we’ve talked to has said how phenomenal all the food was from cocktail hour to desserts. We cannot thank John Serock Catering and Kristy enough for making our day stress free, and providing us and our guests with delicious food and service all night!

o detail. When you select John Serock as your caterer, you are not only getting exceptional food, you are getting someone who is clued in to your vision and day as a whole. John and his team take care of every small detail and operate on the highest level of execution. After the ceremony, cocktail hour started immediately and we were never without a variety of beverages and appetizers during our pictures. Our guests were blown away by the level of variety and appeal of offerings during our cocktail hour alone. The staff was attentive and very friendly. John was instrumental in keeping the bridal party and guests adhering to the timeline that we organized as a group. Guests were blown away by the artistry that went into the table settings. Toasts and dinner went off on time, and guests were excited about the options available at each of our stations. The carvers were attentive, and the staff were very complementary of the venue and design which we appreciated. The Far East station flavors were amazing, and well received by all guests. The pasta station was extremely fresh and flavorful. Desserts were artfully prepared, freshly baked, and beautiful presented. Guests loved the fun of the cookie and milk shooters, mousse cups, and small pastry desserts in addition to our beautiful wedding cake. The Philly Late Night station was an absolute hit to guests who partied to the very end, and was appreciated for the ride home. We simply cannot thank John and his entire staff enough for not only putting our minds at ease, but never wavering on their high standards. John Serock catering ensured that the most important day of our lives was extremely successful and enjoyed by everyone.

d Egyptian backgrounds and we live in Europe so we wanted a mix of Middle Eastern foods and Mediterranean cuisine. John was excited to work on new dishes and really embraced the challenge. Everyone loved their food and the servers did a great job at making sure everyone was well fed and comfortable. In addition to helping us with the food and selecting the alcohol, John helped us manage things at the venue and even called the transportation company for us at the very end of the night when we had a slight issue. He is absolutely reliable, which made this whole process that much easier on us while planning. Food at a wedding is very important, but working with someone as friendly, experienced and committed as John is worth even more. I highly recommend John Serock Catering!

many people commenting on "how amazing appetizers were", "the most tender filet they have ever eaten", and "incredibly nice and helpful staff". Cassidy was always available during planning as well as the day of, and was very knowledgeable while putting our day together. Thank you all so much!!

the day of were amazing, always making sure my husband and I had a drink in our hand and everything we needed. They are so much more than a catering providing food. They were a major component in making sure our day ran smoothly, and our caterer, Cassidy, was a huge help in the wedding planning itself . We are beyond pleased with John Serock. Look no further!!!

ication leading up to the event was superb. I planned my entire wedding in exactly 2 months due to my husband's upcoming military deployment--John was amazing at working with our unique situation. I am truly grateful.

arm as appropriate, and just tasted GOOD. Even the "simple" items like scallops wrapped in bacon or pigs in a blanket were fantastic. Highly recommend if you're a foodie and want elevated wedding food your friends will still talk about. It will happen!

ng with someone who knew the venue well really was beneficial. We worked with Cassidy and were impressed from the first phone call to the end of our wedding night. Cassidy was incredibly thorough and organized - reminding me of things I hadn't even thought of, and always offering helpful suggestions or recommendations. She helped us design the exact menu we wanted and made sure we loved everything. Our tasting was so fun, we all left even more excited for the wedding! Guests are STILL talking about the food. We did a stations set up and couldn't believe the variety and amount of food we got for the price. It was the perfect choice to please every type of diet and preference so everyone had an incredible meal. Their staff were above and beyond helpful and professional. They ran our wedding seamlessly, so I never had to worry about a thing. I now realize how important it is to pick the right caterer, and I could not be any happier with our decision.

ion to detail JSC, Cassidy in particular, provided. Planning communication with Cassidy was always prompt, friendly, clear and professional.  It is clear that not only does she love her job, but that she was made to do it! Our food was out of control.  I've never had food so good at a wedding and all of our guests agreed.  It was also exciting and fun to know that the culinary team at JSC is just as interested in creating new fun ideas as we were during the planning.  Then the execution on our wedding day was beyond expectation. The staff on our wedding day was also friendly and professional, especially Violet who was assigned to Mike and I specifically.  She was attentive, without being too much - and she was SO sweet.  The bar staff was also great and I saw several guest interactions that were so genuine and fun! Of course throughout the entire night we know it was Cassidy making sure it all went well (including starting an hour late due to outside/unrelated vendor irresponsibility!).  We are absolutely blown away by every little detail and we will NEVER forget how amazing this night was! THANK YOU!!!!

perfect. Kristy was such a pleasure to work with in the planning phase and also amazing to work with on our special day. They had servers dedicated to just my wife and I. I cannot say more amazing things about our experience with John Serock. Our wedding was perfect and they were one of the main reasons for making that happen. I would recommend John Serock to everyone for their wedding if you want the perfect experience.

! We worked with Cassidy from the very beginning and she was so wonderful! She is the one who initially responded to my request for a quote and worked up a proposal, we met with her for our tasting and went over SO MANY DETAILS. Things that I never would have thought of in planning my wedding. She had so much insight and provided plenty of guidance. She was always quick to respond to emails, which were frequent! On the day of our wedding we had SO MUCH go wrong! My stylists were 1.5 hours late, the power went out at our venue after a tree fell on a nearby power line, a fire started at one of the buffet tables, and Cassidy stayed so calm through it all. She even sent someone from her team out to buy a TON of candles in case we didn't get power back on. The wait and bar staff was also wonderful, I didn't get her name but one woman in particular kept checking on me and my husband throughout the night making sure we had food and drinks, and everyone raved about our bartender! Overall we were so happy with this company that I've completely forgotten to mention how DELICIOUS the food is!! We had a wine-braised short rib that was to die for and whipped potatoes that were fantastic among other things on our menu. Our guests (and us!) were stuffed and satisfied!

ugh all the details. She did a great job of reaching out to us just enough, at key points in the planning process (i.e. neither too much contact, nor too little contact; the latter is something I would say was an issue with other vendors). She made us feel comfortable throughout, from the time we hired the company (about 8 months out) until the day before (when we had to make a Plan B because a major thunderstorm was coming). Truthfully, as the bride I didn't have much time to eat on the big day... but, all the food looked beautiful and I received many compliments on how good it was. Thank you Serock for being part of our wedding day! We would heartily recommend Serock for all special occasions.

our guests enjoyed! Additionally, they sent us home with extra meals and snacks for our hotel room! If you want DELICIOUS food and people raving about your wedding look no further than John Serock!

rds as the best caterer year after year. You can’t teach experience! Kristy was FABULOUS to work with and ensured that ever little detail was handled during the wedding planning. She met with us for a consultation, tasting, and then before the wedding to finalize the event details and WOW…. she executed everything perfectly. The servers were super attentive and ensured that all the guests needs were attended too. All of the little extras such as having drinks served as soon as the wedding ceremony was over, salads served and, on the table, when the guests were seated, attentive bartenders, extra servers available to attend to the wedding party….I could go on and on. You just don’t find all the many extra touches that Serock includes with other vendors. The food, the service, the professionalism, the presentation, the execution…..everything was top notch. Thank you to Kristy for your fabulous service and for Serock for catering our daughter’s wedding so fabulously. We would HIGHLY RECOMMEND Serock Catering!

ny and get the right food to the right persons at the exact right moment when it is still steaming; and a third uncle to watch over you, be present and make sure everything goes as planned, including putting all your leftovers in your car at the end of the night, taking down garlands, and more !
