John Serock Catering

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!!!

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 !

ompletely customized and featured all of our favorite foods. It was by far the highlight of our special day. We were also paired up with Cassidy, who served as our point of contact at John Serock Catering, as well as our day-of-coordinator. We would not have been able to survive without Cassidy! She is amazing, tireless, organized, warm, and a real pleasure to work with. We are so thankful to have had John and his team cater our wedding and would recommend them to everyone!

! Guests went crazy over how good the food and the service was! Everything down to the last detail was perfect! My only complaint was that the night went by much to quickly! Words can not express my families gratitude to everyone at Serock Catering for making such an important moment in our lives so memorable. From the very beginning Cassidy made us her top priority! If I had a question her response was immediate! All the things that were important to us she made sure were done to perfection! She walked us through every stage of planning and made sure that no detail was forgotten. Somehow she made the wedding something magical and something we could be proud of even on our tight budget! On the day of the wedding Cassidy coordinated everything beautifully. She gave clear directions and let everyone in the wedding party know where they needed to be. Cassidy has an innate knack for making things look beautiful! From the table settings to the decor she made sure everything was just as we had envisioned it would be. Her calm demeanor helped make what normally is a tremendously stressful time seem effortless. I hope to have the opportunity to work with her and her staff again when my son is ready to get married! Thank you all from the bottom of my heart! I will be recommending you to all my friends and family! You guys really are the best!!!

de sure we were fed and had a drink in our hands. If you're looking for awesome food and service you definitely need to choose John Serock!

compliments from guests about how delicious all the food was and how attentive all the staffing was. For example just the little things, a guest dropped a glass and broke it. The staff noticed my niece barefoot and made sure they found her right away and had someone with her till they knew the whole area was cleaned up and she wasn't running around. I also went a little crazy on Pinterest and had a van loaded of signs to display around the venue. They had everything set up and ready to go when we arrived early to get dressed and get pictures before the ceremony. Leading up to the wedding my family said they were getting stressed because of how laid back we were and weren't stressing about the wedding at all. After the wedding they came up to us and said now we know why you weren't stressing at all, you knew you were in the best hands and it showed so much. We can't give enough compliments to Cassidy and the whole staffing at John Serock Catering they were a huge part of our day and made it that much more perfect!

process and made everything so much easier by answering questions, guiding us on decisions and making sure everything went to plan. She even fixed the train of my dress before my walk down the aisle. They went above and beyond my expectation of a caterer. The staff for bartending, set-up, serving, etc were all included in our pricing which was great- one less thing to think about. Everyone was friendly and it was smooth sailing for the whole day! Talking about all the great people I almost forgot to mention THE FOOD! We knew going in that the food was going to be awesome. We went to their open house at Appleford that we attended before meeting with them, and then had a private tasting at Serock and were really impressed by everything we tried. Their portions were not skimpy, as wedding meals sometimes are, and everything was served promptly and hot! Our guests truly loved the food at our wedding, people were talking about it all night and no one went hungry! We also had a cheese & charcuterie table that was a huge hit, and an awesome part of our cocktail hour to bring people out to the garden. I really can't say enough about how great this company was to work with and how much their food and service did to make our wedding day phenomenal. I could go on and on but truly all you need to know is that Serock is the best of the best in their catering field and I would strongly recommend them to anyone and everyone. Thank you John Serock & crew for all your hard work!

redible person to work with from the very beginning and I could not have asked to work with anyone better. Cassie has such a calming force about her, which as a soon to be bride and groom you desperately need. She always made me feel like everything would work out and every little detail truly did. The farmhouse tables we rented were worth every penny and I really could not recommend that enough. The settings looked so much better than I could have dreamed of and all through the day and night a server was there to assist with any little need we had. I not once had an empty glass. To top it off all of the food they put aside for us was beyond amazing! I did not have any appetite the night of the wedding due to the excitement and pure joy I was feeling. I was so sad about not being able to try anything then got all the food Cassie so generously packed up for us. The next day I heated up the most delicious food I think I have ever had! We did not opt for a cake, but let Cassie know the desserts we loved and Serock again exceeded our expectations there. We wrapped up a mini key lime pie and put it in the freezer and will have it on our 1st wedding anniversary. I really cannot say how thankful we are, our wedding really was the best day of our lives and if it were not for Serock catering and our venue it would not have gone that way. Any couple that gets to work with Cassie and crew is beyond lucky.

ing everything was and that they were stuffed at the end of the night. Kristy was a big help throughout the process with making sure everything was set the way we wanted. They were extremely helpful from beginning to end at helping to put up and take down the décor – they even placed it all nicely into our vehicles at the end of the night! They even added to-go baggies for us to enjoy when we got home! All of the servers and bartenders were super friendly and wonderful at asking if we needed anything to eat or drink all night (even while taking photos). It felt as if we had private butlers haha. They helped out a ton on our big day and we are so glad we went with them. We would recommend them to anyone that wants to have a very delicious, filling, and stress free event! :)

're the best around. Thank you for making our day the best.

ious, and the presentation was wonderful.  They even packed up a ton of food for us to take with us at the end of the night! The Serock staff and servers went above and beyond for us and our guests. We had a bridal attendant who was absolutely amazing and was always there throughout the night to get me and my husband whatever we needed. All of our expectations were not only met, but exceeded.

Catering. I was able to reach out to Cassidy whenever I had questions, and she was always very prompt and helpful with her responses (not to mention so sweet and nice to truly pleasant to work with!). The staff was extremely professional and attentive. Several guests and family members have since made remarks about how our food was the best that they have had. My husband's grandfather (who has been to 10+ grandchildren's weddings) said that ours was his favorite yet! The whole day was flawless on their part. We are beyond pleased with our choice of caterer!

hey took responsibilty for set up and cleanup, and we had special requests for the setup which they helped out with too. They had a good variety of linens and dinnerware to choose from for setup. We were able to bring our own alcohol to save money, but they provided all the mixers and bartenders. But of course the most important thing is the food, and we got rave reviews for both the appetizers and the main entrees from our guests. We chose a buffet setup, and there was plenty of food and variety to account for all our guests dietary needs. During the wedding, their staff were everywhere without being intrusive or noticeable. We met with our event coordinator early to choose everything and a week before the ceremony to make a final run through of the event. They also gave us online access to "Allseated" so we could arrange how we wanted the tables and choose our seating arrangement. Their package even included money for a cake from Master's Baker which also gave us lots of options to create what we wanted.

ighly recommend!!!

” “That was the most delicious meal I’ve ever had...AND at a wedding” “I couldn’t decide what I loved more”… I could go on and on. We had some pretty discerning guests who have their own design business and are pretty much over the top on taste and they could NOT stop talking about it too. You exceeded our expectations. Beyond the food… your servers were the most smiley, upbeat, lovely, complementary, helpful and anticipating of ours and our guests needs. You, of course, Rachael, led that charge and I cannot thank you for making our day so seamless and top drawer. I think the marriage of John Serock Catering w/ Duportail made it even more enchanting… it didn’t feel typical in ANY way and the guests were in sheer shock , joy and discussion about it….and still are weeks later! You worked with me throughout the entire process leading up to the wedding... answered the simplest of questions and accommodated the strange ones. The charcuterie was the buzz of the cocktail hour btw! Thanks beyond THANKS for an amazing day!

saw John himself in the middle of the night coming to my husband and I with beer and wine. John went above and beyond the call of duty and even stayed the whole night to help organize everything. Everyone has mentioned how perfect the food was. The cocktail hour was fabulous and even though we didn't try everything Friday, all the apps the next day were SO SO GOOD. All of our guests were raving about the seafood station, fish tacos, and lobster rolls. John made us a signature cocktail and infused the tequila with jalepenos a week before the wedding. The spicy margaritas with spicy salt were such a hit!! Not to mention the amazing dinner service. I have heard that the crabcakes were some of the best the guests have tried and I am pretty sure my uncle ate three portions of short rib. The deserts were amazing and the display was above what we even dreamed about. I really can't say enough positives about the day and the service. John was so attentive and answered all of my questions throughout the planning process and helped calm my nerves. I even had some special requests such as bringing wine to the older guests and giving my grandma soup and I saw the staff complete all of this at the wedding. I would choose John Serock 100 times over. I really cannot say enough good things about him, the service, and the food. John really made our day perfect and everything I imagined. We couldn’t have done it without him!

elicious the food was! Would definitely recommend to friends and family.

espite having time- was stressful and disappointing, knowing though we would still have our first choice caterer was amazing. I thought choosing a caterer would be difficult due to my food allergies (gluten & nuts) and Cassidy & John were instantly on board with a totally gluten & nut free wedding, complete with gluten free chicken fingers, gluten free crackers, gluten free dessert table, gluten free corn bread, and to top it all off they made all my wedding cake dreams come true! A cheese wheel wedding cake. I had no idea how to pull it off, but I sent them a picture and they took it and ran with it and it was one of my favorite parts of the day. We even had a special request for a salad that we loved and they matched it exactly! They were willing to work within our budget, allergy restrictions, and Cassidy was so incredible day of and through it all. They ran with all my ideas & dreams. The team set up every decoration I had brought, setting everything up to as I had always imagined. (i had hundreds of candlesticks for them to set up! and WOW!! ) They were responsive through the whole process making it all completely seamless. I saw first hand how a great caterer would lead to an amazing wedding. The food was delicious and presented so elegantly, the staff on point, the whole timeline put together for us, they kept everything moving along all day, they worked so incredibly hard and the whole day overall completely amazing. It was perfect and we cannot thank them enough!!

n the West Coast so email communication was key in working out the logistics, and Cassidy was extremely responsive and answered every question I had so efficiently. She even worked around our very limited travel schedule for meetings. In terms of the actual day, Serock's team ROCKED! Rachel (our coordinator), the servers, and the bartenders went above and beyond the call of duty to make sure we had a smooth and beautiful reception! From the set up (y'all, they know how to make a room look BEAUTIFUL), to the delicious food, to their professionalism and kindness, we were truly blown away. The price was reasonable and you get so much for the money. I would hire John Serock Catering again in a heartbeat! They are pros!!!!

ere “stuck” with an approved vendor list. Imagine my relief and excitement when I saw JSC listed! From the first appointment with him up until the wedding day, John and his team were so easy to work with. When I say the food is fantastic, it’s an understatement. Even the tasting itself was such a pleasant experience. John is extremely down to earth and yet still very professional. He truly cares about what he does, how he treats his staff, his clients, and every little detail about your special day. He helped with the logistics of the wedding day, our guest list and seating chart woes, and was an extraordinary help the day of our wedding. I was a bundle of nerves and stress the few days leading up to the wedding day, worrying that my “dream” wouldn’t pan-out, since I would not be in control of all the little details and decorations. I couldn’t have been more wrong. I could have cried when I saw how perfect everything was, how attentive his staff was, and of course, how AMAZING the food all was! I even made sure I sat down and ate BOTH crab cakes for dinner because I didn’t want to pass up such a good meal!! I need to also send a special shout-out to Rose, who was our “shadow” server for the day. She made sure my husband and I were always followed around with food, drinks, etc. She was super attentive and very nice. If you’re looking for a caterer and are considering JSC, STOP LOOKING! You’ve found your caterer!

illed that throughout the wedding planning process and on our wedding day! From setting up our decorations, to helping make sure our day was on time, to some of the best wedding food I've ever had, Serock catering made everything perfect. It's been about a month since our wedding, and I'm still receiving compliments on how wonderful all of the food tasted. Thank you Serock catering and Cassidy for all that you did to make our wedding day so special!!

ing guests from across the country told us it was the best wedding food they'd ever had. I wish I had a plate right now! The appetizers were my favorite & totally won me over during our tasting - minis! We had mini lobster rolls, mini fish tacos, mini puffy pork tacos, baby burgers, mini hot dogs & margherita shrimp skewers. They were all so delicious and guests loved how there were more than enough for everyone to try a couple of each. We went with a buffet for the main meal, but it started with the tomato & mozzarella salad which was individually set at each guest's place. Our crab stuffed fish, chicken franchese, & cowboy steak (and awesome sides: tortellini, whipped potatoes & veggies) offered an option for everyone...but most people tried it all! Finally, a delicious cake was included from Master's Bakers along with tons of mini desserts by John Serock. Again, options for every taste! Next, the inclusions. Our choice of 4 different options of china & like 20+ linen colors...included! No upgrade charges - this is awesome! Finally, Kristy & the team! Their team not only set up all of our decor and worked with the florist to have the room looking even more beautiful than I'd imagined (and I was worried because I had a very specific vision)...they cleaned everything up too! I can't explain how happy we were about that. My husband and I thought we were going to have to stay late with our parents to get everything cleaned up and all of the decor we'd purchased out of the venue and into my car before we rode back to the hotel...Kristy said "no way!" She took my keys and loaded all of my decor into my car and left the keys with the venue for us to pick up the next day so we were able to get back to the hotel and just enjoy our wedding night with our friends & loved ones. I can't speak highly enough of John Serock Catering & Kristy. They went above and beyond and truly brought my wedding day dreams to life! Thank you. Thank you. Thank you! -Jason & Cait P.S. ALL of this and they were the best price point of anyone we considerd. Seriously a home-run!

one raved about the food. The cheese and charcuterie board at cocktail hour was also a hit with all of our wedding guests. I didn't get to each much of it, but Kristy placed a small plate of cheese at our sweet heart table for me since she knew my love of cheese! Which leads me to Kristy - absolutely amazing!! I am the bride who asks way too many questions and Kristy answered every single one of them without hesitation. She was super helpful when I asked for suggestions. On the wedding night, she was there every step of the way making sure we were eating, drinking, having fun, etc. She was truly great to work with and we knew we were in good hands from the moment we met her. Also, the wait staff were very professional and really nice and fun. We are so happy with our choice of John Serock Catering. We would recommend them to anyone looking for a wedding caterer with good food and really great employees.

atch out for, and I might have hired a planner if we had the money, but once I met with Kristy I didn't feel the need to. She was such an incredible wealth of of knowledge and experience, always willing to answer my questions, and generally was able to fill in the gap between my expertise and the level of expertise required to plan the perfect wedding. She thought of everything and was always several steps ahead of me, both during the planning and at the wedding. The food was delicious. I had one guest (who is a huge food snob actually) say it was the best catered meal he ever had (and he's had very many). Of course we had so much fun picking out our menu, and it really felt like we were able to express ourselves with our selections. One of the best things about the day was that we actually got to eat our food! From the cocktail hour through the seated dinner and buffet dessert, I don't think we missed anything. They assigned a couple of folks to come and check on myself and the groom throughout the day, and bring us food and drinks, so we were thrilled that we avoided the trope of not getting to eat your own wedding food. Kristy orchestrated the timing of the meal and toasts to ensure we even had a few minutes to sit and eat our main course, which was just so nice and very appreciated. All in all, my wedding came off more perfectly than I could have anticipated, and absolutely NOTHING went wrong. (My MOH confirmed this, actually--there wasn't even anything they kept from us while they dealt with it.) I credit Kristy and the catering team with this feat--they really were THAT thorough and prepared. And although it was the most expensive part of the wedding by far, it was worth every penny to have it go so smoothly. THANK YOU to Kristy and the rest of the team for such an incredible job!

design a menu (food and drinks) that suited our needs. We knew from our tasting that our guests were in for a treat, but come wedding day, we were blown away! Our guests are still raving about the food, stating it was the best meal they've ever eaten at a wedding (coming from two, large, Irish and Italian families, this is a TRUE compliment!). To top it off, the dinner, bar, and wait staff were superb, catering to our every need. John even came out to check with us to make sure everything was to our liking! We will be recommending John Serock Catering to all our family and friends!

menu options for guests with dietary needs to helping us design the layout of the room to courteous service on the night of the event. Most importantly, the food was delicious: our guests came up to us throughout the evening to compliment us on the delicious chicken, beef and vegetarian options. We’ll leave with this one anecdote: when our liquor ran dry early in the evening, Cassidy sent a server to the store with her personal debit card to make sure that our guests had drinks. That’s the kind of attention to detail and care you’ll get when you choose Serock for the most important day of your life, and we’re grateful we got it.

even stepped foot into the gardens for cocktail hour thanks to the lovely Kristy!, not to mention her great detective work in busseling my gown) We knew that our foodie guests as well as everyone else would be amazed by the great food and they were! We got so many raves about the braised short rib as well as the salmon we were served during dinner! Thanks to Serock we were able to bring amazing high quality food and service to a beautiful venue in Lancaster, PA and had the time of our lives without worrying about a thing! Kristy and John were understanding of various dietary needs throughout our guests and catered to every need and desire we possibly had and then some. Everything was flawless and without Kristy's managing skills my husband and mother in law and I would have gone mad with stress and aggravation! None of that here, just a happily married bride with nothing but great things to say about Serock! Use them for your big day, you will not be disappointed and neither will your guests when they get to eat fun delicious food that is anything but your "typical" wedding food! Cheers!

ies across the Philadelphia region, but Serock adds an unparalleled commitment to customer service. From the moment we walked into their West Chester office for a tasting, we were greeted so warmly and quickly bonded with Cassidy. Throughout a year of getting to know Cassidy, it felt like we were working with a close friend for our wedding day. She was the go-to person for all of our vendors during our wedding day. She ran the show. And my wedding guests noticed! They asked me, "Who was the blonde woman at your wedding? She looked so calm and organized!" And that's an understatement. Cassidy is so attentive and doesn't limit her role to "caterer". She found me in the bridal suite before the ceremony and asked how she could help. She instantly began helping set up decor. As for the food on our wedding day, everything was such a hit, from the passed appetizers to the entrees to the grilled cheese station at the end of the night! Our guests couldn't stop telling us how good the food was. As bride and groom, we were treated like royalty by our personal server. We never had an empty glass or had to look far if we needed her. We know without a doubt that our wedding day would not have been anywhere near the same without the service of Cassidy and the team at Serock. Thank you so much for making our day!!!

on how the meal was the best they have ever had at a wedding. We could not have been happier! Thank you Cassidy and John Serock Catering for helping make our wedding an amazing one!

ntastic as result of our investment with John Serock! Our guests raved about the delicious food and impressive delivery of service.... we are so happy to have worked with them and would hire them again in a heartbeat! This is a crew that you can trust to host an incredible event with delicious food you will continue to crave :)

quickly and thoroughly to any email we sent. She had every detail of our wedding covered and was so positive throughout the entire process. The team did a wonderful job setting up the venue, making sure all of our personal details were included. The food itself was fantastic! We received so many compliments from guests saying that it was the best meal they had ever eaten at a wedding! Overall, we are absolutely thrilled with the level of service that Serock Catering provided. We would 100% recommend them to any future brides out there!

so special. From the tasting dinner months before to the clean up after the reception John was there for every moment. Even when we had a few hiccups with our transportation John didn't skip a beat. He orchestrated our entire event beyond what anyone could normally expect from a caterer. Serock catering provided seating chart planning, contact with our dj, guitarist, transportation and much more. They left no detail unchecked. They servers were incredibly attentive and professional as well. Likable people working for a great company. We just felt like we were in good hands and with how stressful weddings can be, that feeling is invaluable. The food was as advertised as well. We didn't get a simplified version of what we had at our tasting. The cowboy steak was a huge hit as well as the crab cakes and antipasti display. I only wish we had more time to eat! What a great night and what a fantastic job Serock catering did. It's nice to know that any future event I have I won't have to shop for a caterer. Serock Catering is it.

two minutes after we did our ceremony, a staff member was down there taking the bride's and groom's orders for cocktail hour, then walking them down to us.) The food is outstanding. You can request anything, and they will do it. We had some modified, Chinese-inspired food on the menu and a vegetarian option. We met John Serock himself at the tasting, and he makes the impression of a friendly, experienced, and creative professional. Clearly he leads a group of excellent chefs. Since most of our interactions were with Kristy over phone and email, I can speak to her abilities the most. We planned our wedding long-distance, and somehow everything came together for the big day. It wasn't just the food or the service, either; Kristy made sure we had all the details in place several days beforehand so that she could coordinate all the important segments of the day: from when guests entered, to the ceremony, to the cocktail hour, to every step of the reception (first dance, appetizer/entree, speeches, cake cutting, etc.) With Kristy in charge, things ran like a well-rehearsed dance. In other words, you're not just getting great food and great service. With Serock Catering, you're getting top-notch event planning, too. Oh, and I think it goes without saying: the guests raved, and continue to rave, about the food at our wedding!

the food and never heard one bad thing. Working with them is so easy and comforting. All of the people John serock hires are super attentive and friendly. At my wedding I was waiting by the kitchen to herd up all of my bridal party for pictures and John serock heard me there and comes out with an amazing cheesesteak egg roll to hold me over until dinner! So sweet. We loved how they set up all of your tables and take down all of it and pack all gifts and liquor into your car. It makes leaving so easy! I have nothing bad to say about this company. I will recommend them to everyone!!

o work working through the list of preferred caters. For many, a standard form email was sent back - totally understandable but not the kind of experience we were hoping to have. And then, came Cassie's email. WOW. I received the most genuine and personal email from Cassie. Not only was she wonderful, professional and quick to respond - she had gotten married at The Washington, used Serock Catering and loved them so much, she now worked for them. Match made in heaven! The food was phenomenal. Our guests still rave about it. More than the food, was the service. We have heard no shortage of praise for the wonderful and attentive servers. From the lovely woman that followed my husband and I around a field during our pictures with hors d'oeurves and drinks, to the attentive servers who cleared the tables quickly and efficiently and ensured our guest were tended to and never in need of anything. We cannot sing their praises enough. One of the best parts of working with them? Getting to know and staying in touch with Cassie. She is a dream. She will make your day her priority even though you will be just one of many on her very filled plate. It was everything my husband and I had been hoping to find. Thank you guys for making our day perfection!

ly Hor's D presentation! Perfection! The only thing...I either need the recipes OR John needs to open a restaurant. I dream of the short ribs and would like to eat them more often!! Susanne and Jay

phia vs. Boston food table) and made sure everything ran smoothly. Even our tough to please guests raved about the food. John worked with all of our vendors to make sure that our last minute rain plan went off without a hitch. We cannot say enough wonderful things about John Serock catering. You would be making a mistake if you do not hire them. Thank you , John and staff!

they were accommodating, and even added an entree that we did not see on the menu! We worked very closely with Cassidy, who I highly recommend working with!! Cassidy was very patient, kind, and efficient with responding to all of my emails, changing the menu, and being hands on throughout the entire wedding process! The food was fabulous and we received so many compliments the entire night, and even weeks after the wedding! Instead of passed hors d'oeuvres during the cocktail hour, we opted for a full antipasta and charcuterie display, which was so incredible! It was delicious and the display looked great! The staff also was very available the whole night, and we had someone who was checking in with me throughout to make sure everything was running smoothly. At the end of the night, they helped us to clean up all of the tables and decorations I had in the reception room, my only limitation was the way they re-packed all of my decorations and "stuff", as some of it was stuffed into boxes and ruined, even though we had offered to help with clean up. It was very nice however to step away and not have to worry about a single thing up through the last minute of my night. I highly highly recommend John Serock Catering for your wedding, and would try to work with Cassidy if possible, as she made our experience flawless, easy, and fun!

to be our caterer! The food was delicious and we could tell that John was experienced, smart and passionate about what he does. We signed with him on the spot! He did not disappoint and on our wedding day we could not have been more happy with how everything turned out. John and his team worked seamlessly with the other vendors and were so helpful in keeping everything on track with the timeline throughout the evening. The food was amazing and we had so many compliments from guests on how great everything was! I would definitely recommend John Serock Catering to anyone looking for a caterer!

ally met with us and responded promptly to any questions or concerns we had. John was also very flexible and accommodating with any requests. We were also impressed by the amount of staff John brought to our wedding. Everywhere we looked his staff was running around making sure everyone was taken care of without being intrusive. He makes it a point to get everyone food in a timely fashion, which I think they did very well even though we had 180 guests. The staff was very friendly and professional. It goes without saying that the food was also incredible. We heard many of our guests tell us how much they enjoyed their dinner. In addition to all the great food and service, John and his staff did an awesome job setting up at our venue, Appleford. Countless guests commented on how awesome it was to have a bar out in the courtyard garden for cocktail hour. They also made great use of the rooms inside the house and did a wonderful job placing our centerpieces. They made our vision come to life, and we wouldn't have changed a thing. We feel lucky to have found a caterer that made the process simple and stress free with results that had our guests saying wow!

rk with from enjoyable meetings, great email communications, and all the way up to the last moment of our reception. The majority of our guests commented on the food being fantastic and some saying the best food they have ever had at a wedding! We had many guests requesting business cards at the reception, and others who contacted me after for his information. We were also extremely impressed with how friendly, fun, and organized the staff was and how well John and his team were able to help in walking us through the process. We will absolutely hire John and his team in the future for other catered events and we reccomend hiring for your wedding!!

xpectations. At the beginning of the reception, there was a glitch in number of people and an extra person showed up. With a little finagling, my husband and I got this person seated at our table, which left us w/o seats. Seeking assistance from Nina, one of the most professional servers ever, we went off to be introduced into the reception with the rest of the wedding party. By the time we walked back in and found Nina, she had two place setting for us, as well as salads and water. It was so smoothly executed that our "extra" guest never realized she created a "challenge". Very impressive, indeed! All in all, we enjoyed ourselves thoroughly, and received a multitude of compliments from guests on the entire reception: food, drinks, and service. John and Nancy Thank you John Serock Catering for a memorable time!

y was professional, friendly, down to earth and excited about his company and meeting with us. John spoke about his company philosophy while we sampled their delicious food; we were hooked, we knew right then and there this company was going to caterer our big day! Over the months, we created our menu, talked about logistics of the wedding day, visited our wedding site together and narrowed down every last detail. Our final meet was with both, John and Jay, and they went over again everything about the day to make us feel comfortable and confident. These guys are honestly so easy to work with, fun and you can tell they are passionate about what they do - that truly shines through. Our wedding day was PERFECT! I know that is so cliche so say, but it's true and John Serock Catering was a HUGE part of this!! Our vision actually become our reality! I cannot say enough good things about this company; they truly went above and beyond! The food was fresh and tasty and honestly the best wedding food I have ever had. The staff was EXTRAORDINARY! They were SO attentive, lively and accommodating. So many guests were raving about the experience days after the wedding was over! John and Jay really have a unique company that supports your vision while adding a unique edge to it. We could not be happier with who we've selected - I absolutely recommend them! You will be WOWED!

egetables). Even our foodie friends from California were impressed. John has done a lot of weddings and knows the area venues well, which made the day go smoothly. He even stepped in to store our cake for a few hours when a last-minute complication came up the day-of. The servers were quick and professional, and everything looked nice. We also appreciated getting food before the buffet line so that we could eat quickly and then make rounds to tables. The only (minor) negative feedback from us or any of our guests was related to the bartender service; apparently the person mixing drinks didn't know/made mistakes on some of the less common drinks that our guests ordered. This was still a very small criticism, in comparison to all the compliments, and could probably be prevented with better preparation on our part (list of suggested cocktails, etc).

ich really added to the ambiance that we wanted. They also assigned a staff member to make sure that my husband and I were fully taken care of during the busy day! We kept getting compliments on the delicious food and can't wait to work with them again!

sorts of things to order and as requested by clients. We got so many compliments on the wonderful food at our wedding!! All of his servers and the bartender were very friendly and helpful!

schedule. We loved the food and the service and I would definitely use him again for any catering in the future!

g about the spread. John Serock Catering provides hands on service that separates their business from the other caterers in the industry. The caterers also set up the tables, napkins, flowers, candles and other decorations to make our vision come to life perfectly. John (president of John Serock Catering) was present during the entire planning process as well as the actual reception to ensure everything went smoothly. John is professional, down to earth, responsive, flexible and incredible to work. He and his staff attended to our every need. They helped solve the last minute dilemmas that are inevitable when hosting a large event. John personally followed up with my husband and I the week after the wedding requesting feedback and thanking us for using his company. John Serock Catering provided us with a wonderful overall experience. We plan to use their services in the future and highly recommend them to anyone looking to host an unforgettable event.

od choices that John provided made it easy to decide on our menu and as expected, the food was delicious,the presentation was perfect and everything was set up exactly as we discussed. The staff members were exceptional, making sure our guests were well tended to and just knowing that John was in charge allowed both of us to relaxed and enjoyed ourselves. The majority of our guests commented to both of us about how wonderful the food tasted and most had gone back for seconds. John, THANK YOU for making our reception absolutely PERFECT.

t person to actually answer the phone when I was looking for caterers, AND he actually talked to me, AND he was awesome. After meeting with him the next day, I knew he was perfect for us. We had a bit of a unique situation, with not a lot of time to plan or accessibility, and John never skipped a beat, during planning or the day of. From the first moment I knew I could trust him to care about me and my family, and to be there to help me make sure the big day was perfect. And it was, thanks to him and his staff! They all went above and beyond without even being asked, and I am forever grateful. And again, the food! - I am still getting rave reviews from friends and family. The food almost stole the show! I would very highly recommend John and his team - You won't be disappointed!

accurate- he literally walked us out to our limo and gave us a big basket full of food for us to bring to our hotel. He put so much work into our wedding and really went above and beyond. He made us feel very special. And then there was the food! Our wedding was over a year ago and our guests still talk about how great the food was. I have never been to a wedding before where people raved about the food. Thank you so much John Serock for a truly memorable day.

must be made with planning a wedding, and selecting a caterer in particular, since that was the most important aspect to us. He immediately put us at ease by sharing with us his story, and how his passion for this business came about. Then he served us some of his specialties and we felt like we were in our grandmother's kitchen...everything was so very fresh and delicious...his food is sophisticated, without losing that authentic, full of flavor, very home-cooked feel. Throughout the process, John was very patient with my questions & always quick to respond. We chose to have stations at our wedding, which the guests absolutely loved! They have not been able to say enough about how much they enjoyed the food - from the blue cheese stuffed potato appetizers to the risotto balls, to the delicious salad with pears & gorgonzola, to the juicy turkey and cowboy steak, bursting with flavor paella, and delectable crepes! We told John at our first meeting that our first date had been at a creparie in Center City, and that we'd really love to have crepes at our wedding. Not only was he willing to make that happen; he was really excited about it, and we decided on grilled chicken, spinach, mushroom and goat cheese crepes with bechamel sauce...mouth watering!! With respect to our wedding day, we can't possibly say enough about this caterer. The staff was so incredibly sweet while being very professional, and always there to see if the bride & groom, and bridal party needed anything. Also, we had our wedding at the Hilltop House in Devon (amazing!) so there really is no coordinator, and in addition we did our own music, so it was really a wedding where we took care of it all on our own. I was so concerned from the beginning about the timing and organization of the day since it wasn't at a hotel or ballroom-type place, and I can tell you that I have never been to wedding that was as well run as ours with such style, awesome attitudes and a warm feeling that every single person felt, and a big part of that was thanks to John! :)

things about his professionalism and customer service...not to mention, his 'Philly (Cheesesteak) station" was the hit of our wedding. Friends and family are still talking about how good it was and everyone loved the idea of the chefs grilling the steaks right at the buffet table. :) John Serock Catering is TOP-NOTCH and I would highly recommend it to anyone!!!!!
