Van Abel's of Hollandtown

highly recommend! Thank you Van Abel's for making this part of our daughter's wedding so seemless.

I announced due to COVID we had them serving. So then no one served water because they weren’t staff for serving even though I paid extra for it. I also paid extra for the china package but I wouldnt recommend it. It was nice plates, silverwear, etc but since they had to take it with them, they rushed to clear it and took people’s full glasses of water away after being late to get them out. Just seemed like they were in a rush to get out. Food was fantastic and dropping off the linens the next day was easy. Overall pretty good but not great.

nd everything ran smoothly. Let me tell you, we had so many compliments on the food, it was AMAZING! We were even told that someone snuck into the fridge later in the evening and was eating the chicken!! Seriously, great tasting food and you can't beat the price for the quantity and quality.

nd we selected the broasted chicken and tenderloin tips for our dinner, and several hot and cold options for hors d'oeuvres. The pricing was comparative to the other options we had considered. We had arranged a tasting appointment for four, and they provided many options and in good proportions. We left confidant that the food would be good at our wedding. The hors d'oeuvres went over really well. The meatballs were delicious, and by far, my favorite. We had the dinner served family style for the head and family tables, and then buffet for the other guests. Dinner was very good as well, and many guests went up for seconds of the chicken. They had proportions planned well, as we didn't have too many leftovers. We had a few meals of the leftovers following the wedding, and very little went to waste. We would highly recommend Van Abel's for catering needs.

everything went so well. We had the pleasure of meeting with Chris Coenan who went over all the details with booking the hall. The thing that sold us the most was the size of the private bar that goes along with booking of the hall. We had around 220 guest planned on attending so we needed plenty of bartenders and staff and they did not disappoint. anytime we had questions or concerns Chris was very quick in responding and answering all of our questions.Thank You everyone at Van Abel's for helping make my day so special.

eral. I love the laid back feel of Van Abels and the food is to die for. We had multiple spills on the dance floor and someone was always there with a smile to clean it up right away. I would give Joan and her staff a million stars if I could!

tasting the food. I was confident in the quality as the restaurant has been around for decades, however, I was also realistic with the fact that wedding food is usually just OKAY and that when replicating a dish for 200 people, it is never going to be great. Or at least, that is what I thought before I tried Van Abel’s on our wedding day! The food was AMAZING! We had broasted chicken, tenderloin tips, garlic mashed potatoes, etc etc. It was DELICIOUS and we received many compliments on it. I even had a guest tell me later that they were all trying the green beans trying to figure out what was on them so they could recreate the recipe at home! Van Abel’s was able to work with me needing most of the food prepared gluten free, and was able to work with my guests who had nut and tree nut allergies. We were even able to take home the leftovers and eat them the few days we had at home before we left for our honeymoon. And to be clear, we had leftovers because guests who RSVPd didn’t show up, not because they did not portion correctly. Overall I would give them an A+ and recommend them to anyone! Their food is excellent for their value!” –Meghan & Adam

n their lives, which I completely agree with. The all-you-can-eat family style meal is ideal for a large wedding. The waitstaff and bartenders were efficient and friendly, which I'm sure was a challenge for over 300 guests. Chris (our event coordinator at Van Abels) made sure everything went off without a hitch to make our day perfect. Overall, the venue is the perfect setup for a reception...A huge open space for everyone to dance, plus more than enough space/tables surrounding the north bar for people to gather and chat. Ultimately, I couldn't say enough wonderful things about Van Abels. We got so much more than what we paid for, and having the perfect wedding reception was priceless!
