Best Caterer Ever!

Jenny was so amazing; we are so happy that we picked 4 Rivers! She helped us determine which options were best for us, including how much food to order and whether to buy drinks separately. All the food was delicious, and even better was that it was all boxed up for us at the end of the night! They even packaged the food and drinks that we brought separately, which was so nice when all you want to do is get home. Every server/bartender that was working that night was so kind and did a great job, we were grateful since we had many elderly guests that needed the extra help. Overall, 4 Rivers has the amazing combination of great food and great people- were so glad that we went with them!

Great BBQ in Central Florida

I worked for 4 Rivers in college so when I saw them as an option for our venue in Gainesville I knew that we had to have it at our wedding! Jenny was a pleasure to work with and our tasting went well. We were impressed she called the venue owner to see how the process of catering worked so that everything went smoothly. She was very detail oriented and we appreciated that she had the staff make up boxes for us so they were waiting for us when we were ready to eat so that we did not have to wait in line and could interact with our guests!

All of our guests, especially those from our of town loved the "local Florida barbeque" and the servers and bartenders were great! We liked that they had tasty gluten free and vegetarian options available. The shrimp and grit croquettes and mac and cheese were favorites among many!

The food was incredible and the staff was very helpful. We were able to buy our beer and wine ahead of time and drop it off at their catering office earlier in the week, as well as our plate chargers and cake topper. The staff was always friendly and reliable, and everything went perfectly! I would definitely recommend 4 Rivers for an affordable catering option that really delivers on quality and customer service. We worked with Kayla, Tiffany, and Valerie, and all were very helpful.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

Our clients at our wedding venue place a lot of trust in us, almost always asking for recommendations for all their other vendors. We take that trust very seriously and we are very careful to recommend only the best, most reliable vendors to them. We are completely confident in our suggestion to use 4 Rivers for not just great barbecue, but also wonderful cocktail hour appetizers and beautiful and delicious wedding cakes and other treats. Their food is of the highest quality and the service is exceptional. They even can provide bartending, which crosses another task off our couples’ to-do lists. Catering manager Jenny is an absolute joy. We are proud to endorse 4 Rivers!
