Even the foodies approved

Paula and her team are beyond perfection. They were so helpful picking out the linens (and so patient as I changed my mind multiple times!), they accommodated allergies and kids meals and answered so many wedding related questions along the way - food and non-food related!
The food was a huge hit and people are still talking about it. The service was top notch! We will be heading back there for our anniversary every year!

Exceptional Wedding Caterer

Linwoods was integral in making our wedding day special. Catering was our highest priority in terms of vendor selection, and Linwoods exceeded our expectations in every respect. They created a custom, family-style menu for us to reflect my husband’s New Mexico roots, and absolutely nailed every aspect. Our guests raved about the food, and even the guests who had flown in from New Mexico gave it a full stamp of approval. Linwoods also put on an exceptional cocktail hour and late night bar and food service for our afterparty. There was never a wait at the bar and passed hors d’oeuvres were plentiful. Linwoods also went above and beyond to create our ideal list of signature cocktails and mocktails, and went out of their way to source the exact wines, beers and spirits we wanted to serve. I cannot recommend them highly enough!

Mouth watering food!

Linwoods was amazing. The staff was on top of everything and always so attentive. My husband and I were always given new drinks whenever we were empty. We also were offered food so much. Linwoods is the perfect. Sherri is absolutely amazing and so helpful!

The BEST Catering Experience!

I will never stop raving about Linwoods! From the start, I could tell that Sherri and the entire Linwoods team knew exactly what they were doing. Sherri was there throughout the entire two and a half year process and we couldn't be happier. She was also incredibly honest and open about pricing and never tried to upsell us on anything, which is refreshing in the wedding industry.

We were able to customize so much and it was great to have Sherri's knowledge and and honest transparency about what guests care about and what makes the most sense for the wedding and the venue space.

I knew come the wedding day I wouldn't have to worry about any of the food or drinks, and all of our guests were absolutely thrilled. We were told it was some of the best food they've ever had at a wedding - and we agree! The additional staff to make sure the couple and the parents are taken care of is such a plus! So many people told me they didn't eat at their wedding, but with Linwoods, they made sure we ate and drank all night. I definitely recommend Linwoods and their staff to make catering as stress free as possible for your wedding.

Best food with the best service!

Linwoods catered our recent wedding at the Winslow in Baltimore and they were the absolute best! From the tasting process to working with us to customize the menu, to the day of experience everything was wonderful! Their food was incredible and people could not stop raving about how good it was. Rachel was our catering director and she was a true treasure to work with! She was super responsive, very attentive and totally understanding. They have their service down to a T and we could not have been happier with the entire experience. The restaurant is a great place to eat a wonderful meal in addition to them having a great catering team!

Amazing!

Sherri and her team at Linwoods were absolutely amazing. The food was incredible, the bartenders were so fun, the service was spot on (my husband and I had a personal waitress who made sure we ate and drank throughout the evening), and the cake was INSANE. All of my guests raved about the food and service. Highly highly recommend!

OMG Just Pick Linwoods

From the tastings through the reception we were blown away by Linwoods. Rachel is a phenomenal manager and contact point and offered great advice when needed. We had a multitude of compliments on the food from guests at the wedding. We had a few tell us it was the best steak they’ve ever had and many tell us they’ve never been better fed at a wedding. Absolutely first class service throughout.

Phenomenal, from start to finish.

Our guests raved about our food! We can’t tell you how many times friends and family were disappointed with food at weddings, including us. Our food was truly spectacular. It was just as amazing as our tasting. The service was quick and efficient - we had plenty of hors d'oeuvres - the dinners were all hot, and the bar was on point. My mom has some special requests that they promised and delivered, and the service in general was incredible. We dealt with Sherri, and she is so on it. I was relaxed from the second I emailed her and heard back. Her experience, organization, responsiveness and desire to please is unparalleled. We are so grateful we chose Linwoods, and can’t wait to go back to celebrate our one year anniversary. Highly recommend!

Linwoods has unmatched food and service for your wedding!

We cannot recommend Linwoods (and Sherri!) enough! From our very first meeting, throughout the planning process, and up to the big day itself, Sherri and her team were incredible to work with. Linwoods accommodated all of our requests, customizing our wedding to be exactly what we wanted. They were also very transparent and reasonable in what those customizations meant monetarily. Having attended many weddings ourselves, there were things we knew wanted to make sure happened - minimal crowding at the bar, ensuring guests actually got an appetizer, food allergies/sensitivities, etc. The team was on top of EVERYTHING the entire night. People cannot stop talking about how amazing the food was - seriously, it was out of this world. If you want fabulous food and stress-free catering, go with Linwoods.

So much more than a caterer!

Linwoods was one of the best choices we made for our wedding day. From the very beginning, their service outshone any competition. Sherri, the catering coordinator, is one of the best people you an having on your wedding team. She takes the time to get to know the couple, even asking us about our job placement and house hunt around the time of the wedding. She will go the extra mile to make sure everything is how you envision on the day of. The food was incredibly delicious and is of the same quality as the amazing food you will eat at the restaurant. The pastry chef is incredible and as a bride with a major sweet tooth, our cake was delicious! We opted for an open bar, and our guests were so pleased with the bar service and had a blast! Sherri also coordinated all of our linens for the wedding - we loved all it! We would highly, so highly, recommend choosing Linwoods for your catering and we hope to return for anniversary dinners in years to come!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
