Shane and his team are incredible! They offered a full tasting for items we created. Yes, they allowed us to create a menu, we did not have to pick and chose from a set list of options. If you are looking for great tasting food for your guests, a great team to work with and a menu that you love, Caroline Street Catering is who you should call.

Working with Chef Shane and his team was absolutely one of the best decisions we made when planning our wedding! Catering is one of if not the biggest expense when planning a wedding, and it was important to us to work with someone that we could trust with our event. The food was spectacular, and we had several guests tell us it was the best food they've ever had at a wedding! We wanted a southern style menu and Shane absoultely delivered...I still dream about his fried chicken. We had a wedding of about 130 and decided to do family style salads and bread at the table, and then dinner served buffet style. They had the buffet moving very officiantly and made sure everyone was fed quickly. We also rented the table settings from Shane and they looked exactly like we had hoped.

Shane was a pleasure to work with throughout the planning process. He was always very responsive to my emails with questions and flexible with any changes. His staff was extremely friendly and proffesional the night of our wedding. We also really enjoyed our menu tasting experience! You're allowed to bring four people, so myself, my fiance at the time, and my parents were all able to taste a multitude of dishes. We left stuffed with boxes of leftovers knowing our catering decision was made.

Shane from Caroline Street Catering was awesome! We went here for a food tasting and he went above and beyond in letting us sample whatever we were interested in on the menu and gave us boxes of leftovers to take home! I also loved that he provided BBQ buffet as an option because that is exactly what my (then fiance now husband) had in mind for our wedding. At the end of our day there were boxes in leftovers with bride and groom in sharpie written on them. We enjoyed the leftovers the next day and early into the next week while we were still recovering from all the excitement and had not gone to the store yet. Would definitely recommend Shane and his crew.

Caroline street is absolutely amazing at what they do! Not only creative in the kitchen but also with styling and set up! Not only are they great to work with as a fellow vendor but I also hired them to do my wedding! I was overjoyed with the results!

Caroline Street Catering is one of my favorite outside caterers we have had the privilege to work with. Chef Shane can cook and I found his prices very reasonable. I highly recommend them to anyone.
