We had such an amazing experience with Lidderdale for our wedding! The food was absolutely AMAZING, and our guests couldn’t stop talking about how delicious everything was. Everyth...
ing was prepared, organized, and presented so well. The staff was also incredibly helpful and went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly. They did an amazing job getting all the food sorted out and ready for our guests. They even helped us cut our four-tier wedding cake and plate it for everyone, which we truly appreciated! One thing that really stood out to us was how attentive they were throughout the reception. They went table to table to collect trash and help keep everything clean, which allowed us and our guests to enjoy the celebration without having to worry about anything. We are so grateful for all their hard work, kindness, and attention to detail. They helped make our wedding day even more special, and we would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for delicious food and wonderful service!

Went above and beyond, made the reception so stress free for me. Refilled drinks when they noticed they were getting low even though we didn't have to ask them to! Extremely friend...
ly with guests; got so many compliments about the food and the service.
Lidderdale Catering was a familiar favorite for my husband and his family — and once we did a tasting, I completely understood all the rave reviews. The food was fantastic, and the...
entire process was incredibly easy (almost too easy!).
At first, their laid-back approach made me a little nervous — especially since they didn’t require a signed contract like most other vendors. But they clearly know what they’re doing. On the day of the wedding, they showed up on time, handled setup, helped serve, and took care of cleanup — all without a single issue.
I’d absolutely hire Lidderdale again without hesitation.
Lidderdale has catered nearly every wedding, funeral, large family function since I can remember. It was a no-brainer that they cater our wedding! Brad and his team were timely, th...
orough, and of course the food was absolutely delicious! They offer more food, service, and options than any other caterers that we found. I’ll continue to recommend Lidderdale for any and all catering needs!
Easy to work with and were flexible with squeezing us in for a lunch reception when they had a lot going on that day. Pricing was straightforward and the food was fantastic!
They were incredibly easy to work with and the food was amazing! There were tons of options and everything turned out wonderful. Would recommend Lidderdale 100%!
Lidderdale was excellent to work with! We visited one of their tasting events, which was ran wonderfully. Leading up to the wedding, they were incredibly easy to work with, and the...
day of was even easier! They are extremely professional, and their food was absolutely amazing!! Not only was the food amazing, but we were pleasantly surprised with how low the cost of food was. Would highly recommend meeting with Lidderdale, and giving them a try!
Best food ever, great prices, punctual, very professional!
Everyone said the food at our wedding was the best they have had in a long time! Seamless and needed nothing from me, even packed up our leftovers for us!
They are the most affordable, and everyone LOVES the food. I have heard nothing but good things about them, and they did such a great job at our wedding. They got over 400 people t...

Lidderdale provided the food for my August wedding and it was so amazing! They are so easy to work with and their staff is extremely helpful. I can’t recommend them enough. (Also, ...
the garlic mashed potatoes are to die for!)
Lidderdale was great to work with! They were highly recommended by our venue and had been there multiple times. The food was delicious and so much food was included for the price. ...
My favorite was the taco salad and lasagna!

Lidderdale was great to work with! We had been recommended to them by lots of friends and they did not let us down! The only thing I wish was different was that they sent a contrac...
t online and we were able to pay online. It wasn't a big deal, it would just be nice to keep track of things electronically. Food was delicious and we got lots of compliments! Lidderdale is very easy to work with and very reasonably priced!
Our meal from Lidderdale was delicious! We had so many compliments from our guests about the food - everyone loved it! We also loved that Lidderdale was so accommodating to our gue...
sts with Celiacs and dairy allergies. We were able to provide many options for all guests, regardless of dietary restrictions. Their catering was very high quality and at a very affordable price. They took care of everything the day of the wedding, working directly with the venue so that we did not have to worry about anything. We cannot recommend Lidderdale Country Store enough!!
You can’t really find a better bang for your buck in terms of wedding catering in Central/Western Iowa than Lidderdale. You get 3 meat options (we did ham balls, pork loin, and roa...
st beef), 2 sides, and 7 salads. Everything was amazing and our guest were definitely well fed. For all the food you get, the pricing is extremely reasonable too. I’ve been to a lot of events/weddings with Lidderdale doing the food, and I’ve never been disappointed.
Lidderdale is so easy to work with and their food is AMAZING. I would 100% recommend them to any couple!!
We decided pretty last minute that we didn't want to go with the catering we had initially planned. Scrambling to find someone a little over 30 days before our wedding was very str...
essful but Lidderdale was recommended to us by friends and our venue. It was absolutely delicious. My favorite was the Cesar salad (my favorite food so I'm picky about it) and my husband loved the chicken and wild rice. We got compliments on the taco salad by many and barely had any beef lasagna to take home because it was such a hit! Great place to work with and would definitely recommend to anyone looking for catering.
WOW!!! If you are in the need of a caterer for your wedding- look no further. Lidderdale is absolutely amazing! During the wedding planning process, my fiance and I went to their t...
asting and immediately fell in love! We knew we wanted country comfort food and this is IT! We booked them for our wedding as soon as we could! They are very accommodating for gluten free/vegetarian guests. They even set plates aside to prevent cross contamination. Not only is the food exceptional, but so is the customer service. I cannot tell you how many times we called to change our menu, head count, or discuss gluten free options. They were always so organized and patient with us. Not only did we love the food, but so did our guests! We cannot recommend Lidderdale enough, thank you again!
Guests were raving about how good our food was for weeks after the wedding!! Amazing food, great service, and was willing to work with me when COVID restrictions kept changing. The...
y are excellent about returning calls and questions, and called me to check in before the wedding. Booking is easy and they are really “chill” about everything.
Lidderdale was great to work with - the food was absolutely delicious and we loved all of the options. The seven salads was my favorite, the groom loved all of the meat & the potat...
oes! We received so many compliments from our guests at how good the food was, and many were sad that their plate wasn't big enough to try everything when they went through the buffet! The cost is extremely reasonable - and even better considering how delicious it was! We opted to upgrade to real plates / silverware, which we'd recommend for a nicer buffet & easy cleanup (Lidderdale staff will pick up plates for you). Also bring lots of tupperware to take the leftovers home with you!
The food was absolutely amazing and they were able to serve the food by family style. They were willing to work with us and make our day special!
Food was amazing! They were so great to work with and very accommodating. When I told people we were having Lidderdale cater our wedding, everyone would start their sentence with ...
"Oh my god, YUM!"
We are quite familiar with Lidderdale's catering, so there was no question...we were definitely having them cater my daughter's recent wedding! We had three meats, two potatoes, f...
our salads, rolls, and it all came in a good $10/plate cheaper than many other reception sites. HIGHLY recommend securing a place where you can bring your own caterer and use Lidderdale! THANK YOU to the Lidderdale team! It was wonderful!
The food was AMAZING!! So many people told us it was the best wedding food they have ever had. Thank you!!
The food is AMAZING!!!! They are so nice and accommodating! I was a little concerned that there was no contract we had to sign or a down payment, but my family and friends have wor...

The BEST food, best prices, and wonderful service!
Amazing food, service, and experience!!
We hired Lidderdale as our caterer for our wedding last weekend and they were truly a blessing to all. After the sampling we knew the food...
would be great but they blew us away with their service and adding personal touches to our day. They set up and tore down, arrived early to ensure things were all out before guest arrived, and of course delivered a fantastic meal. We had 7 sides (yes 7!), 3 meats, potatoes and s veggie, all for a very reasonable price. Great food, great people, great experience!
One of the things I love most is that they were out in the food line while people dished up, which isn’t uncommon, but they interacted and created a fun atmosphere as people went though. My wife and I could see people smiling and laughing with them as they passed through and received compliments on how fun they were. Not only was the food absolutely incredible these guys went above and beyond.
Thank you for being a part of our day, we will be back for sure!

hat was attending. MANY guests were in awe over the meat and the rest of the food. We had roast beef at our reception. At the reception they kept everything up and helped clean up. They are very respectful and want to make sure you are happy. They are very well priced, too, for the amount of food and service you get. Check them out!
They were AMAZING!
The food was fantastic. So many choices and for such a great price. I really don't think you could beat this for catering.
The best food and the best to work with!!
Food was great and they were great to work with! Bring containers for left overs. No one told us that part and I assumed they would have some. I would have liked an invoice but it ...

Lidderdale is so easy to work with! They are very popular in Western Iowa, and they did not charge for their delivery to central Iowa. My fiance and I went to Lidderdale for a tast...
