Our event was made wonderful by the excellent food and server. Collette was so easy to work with and really assisted with creating a lovely menu. Lisa was very responsive and helpful. The arrangement of the dishes was beautiful and the food itself outstanding. I received nothing but compliments from the attendees. I gladly recommended and will continue to recommend your business. Thank you for a wonderful celebration.

I have used Melanie Rowe for even the smallest needs. From a magnificent charcuterie board for a couples weekend, dinner for a dear friend, attending a sit down dinner catered by this team, Christmas party, or a birthday celebration. They are amazing with detail, amazing food and service. I can not praise them enough! They will work with your budget giving you plenty of options! Follow them on Facebook and check out their weekly menu.

My work orders from Melanie Rowe at least once a month, usually much more often. Baby showers, birthdays, celebrations, meeting meals, etc. She always has amazing food, the president of our company has requested we only order from here now. They're really friendly and always have quality, fresh meals.

Melanie Rowe Catering did a wonderful job preparing food for my Father in Law's Celebration of Life. We lost him unexpectedly a few days before Christmas and had a hard time finding someone to cater to 50 people on short notice. Her staff was friendly, more than happy to help us and took very good care of us. The food was phenomenal, everyone raved over it. I can't thank them enough for everything. They went above and beyond. I highly recommend them if you need a caterer for a family gathering, event or wedding. They are wonderful!
