The best wedding food

Austin and Tracey — thank you for the outstanding catering and service you provided for Stephanie and Hunter’s wedding. The food was excellent, the lemonade bar was beautifully done, the charcuterie display was impressive, and the ice cream bar added such a fun, memorable touch. Your team’s professionalism made everything run smoothly. For anyone seeking a caterer who delivers quality, creativity, and dependable service, Cook Shack is a choice I would highly recommend.

Excellent from start to finish!

We began our journey with Cook Shack approximately ten months before the wedding date. As a parent, they were great to work with. Menu was detailed and suggestions given. We went to a tasting - which everyone should do! Our menu was planned with the utmost detail to attention and service. Both Tracey and Austin exceeded our expectations. On the day of the wedding, everything was perfect. The food was delicious and their staff exceptional. Do not hesitate to book Cook Shack for your wedding or any event!

The best!!

We are so happy that we went with Cook Shack for our wedding! We had gone to multiple tastings but when we went to the one with Cook Shack we knew they were exactly what we wanted! They were so easy to work with and very responsive to any questions or changes that we had. They can pretty much customize anything you ask for and everything they make is delicious! On the day of the wedding they did an amazing job - not just the food, but the service was amazing. Everything came out fast, hot and the servers were all so professional and kind. They went above and beyond what most other catering companies will do and it’s obvious that they just love to make people happy with their food. Thank you for being such a big part of our day!

The best food

Cook Shack was truly one of the best decisions we made for our wedding - the food was absolutely delicious and service was just as good. They surpassed all expectations and I left our wedding in awe of how smoothly it ran and just how good the food was. Our guests were talking about the food for weeks after. The tasting is also so fun and Austin and Tracy are amazing to work with - very responsive and willing to try any type of food or idea! Austin made sure we were fed during our dinner and even made us to go plates! Seriously - hire cook shack

Amazing service all around!

I HIGHLY recommend Cook Shack for your wedding catering! It was a fabulous experience all around. The food was absolutely delicious and our guests have been raving about it for days and weeks after our wedding. Not only was the food wonderful, but the service was unmatched. Austin led us through an incredibly tasting, Tracey was extremely responsive to communicate with, and their entire staff provided great service at the venue. They are so thoughtful and really care about their customers. Cook Shack provided to-go meals for us as the bride and groom to ensure we got to try the food. I cannot recommend Cook Shack enough! Thank you for everything!

Incredible food and service -highly recommend!

Cook Shack Catering did an excellent job catering our wedding. From hors d'oeuvres to the large portion dinner to the late-night quesadilla bar, our guests were raving about the food. Our personal favorites were the bacon-wrapped scallops and the grilled vegetable skewers! The service was also excellent. The wait staff served our plated dinner efficiently for our 200 guests so no one had to wait long for their food and the bar lines moved quickly with ease. All of the bartenders and servers were kind and courteous, and the whole night ran smoothly. We also love that we were able to have an ice cream sundae bar with the very cute trailer/cart Cook Shack offers. The ice cream was delicious and a big hit with our guests! Tracey was lovely to work with during the planning process and was great with communication and coordination! We highly recommend Cook Shack and were we to get married a second time, we’d call them up again!

Delicious food, amazing people!

Cook Shack is everything we could have asked for in a catering company and more. Throughout the entire process, Tracey was incredibly kind, patient, and communicative in answering our various questions. With the extensive and delicious menu, it was really appreciated that we could do a tasting with another couple to try different items, all of which were so so good! Tracey and the Cook shack team were flexible and helped us figure out great options for our guests with dietary restrictions. Needless to say, the food was incredible and the entire team was so great during our wedding, making sure that we ate and our guests with dietary restrictions got their special meals. Everyone was RAVING about the food, saying it was the best food they’ve had at a wedding! Cook shack even sent us home with neatly packed leftovers and an extremely thoughtful gift!

We loved cookshack

My husband and I had a choice of 5 caterers for our wedding, and we are so glad we went with Cook Shack. From the start, our catering tasting was to die for. We went in for the tasting with another couple and we all got to choose several things and try everything as a group. Their food was fantastic and so were the desserts. They sent us home with so much leftover food just for the tasting! Between our tasting and our wedding, Tracey was extremely responsive and professional, and always answered any questions we had. The food and staff were fantastic the day of the wedding. Everyone raved about the food and the dessert (they made a crazy good cheesecake and chocolate mousse). Would highly recommend.

Best catering team ever!

I could not say enough good things about this company. As soon as we went to the tasting, my husband and I knew that this was the caterer to go with. They were flexible, eager to serve, and so kind to us. The owner especially was so nice. We wanted dumplings, and he cooked them up on the spot at the tasting. The food and service were all outstanding and made my wedding 100 times better!
