Absolutely Amazing!

We couldn’t be more happy with our choice to work with Maxwells. From day 1 they were extremely kind and friendly which made everything easier and less stressful. They were never pushy or salesy and instead seemed genuine and happy to work with us. We tried 3 different wood fired pizza options and theirs was by far the best tasting and highest quality. Also, their pricing was reasonable and on point for what they were offering. They were extremely flexible and were able to accommodate everything we wanted and needed for our day, including maintaining a buffet inside our venue, making special dietary pizzas for our guests, dealing with rain and weather delays, and serving a special pizza to the sweetheart table. Their kindness combined with an amazing product and service are truly top knotch. We had several compliments from guests regarding how delicious the pizza was, asking where it was from, etc. Every single slice was eaten! They were prompt in communication and quickly answered any questions we had along the way. They showed up early the day of and had everything set up, and dinner and their clean up ran so smoothly (despite a storm, wind, and severe weather warnings) that we barely even noticed them working. They were professional and amazing to work with. Highly recommend!

Great vendor and great staff!

Maxwell’s catered our wedding in October this year! We knew we wanted pizza for our reception, and tried a few different companies and Maxwell’s was by far the best! From the flavor of their pizzas to the communication with their staff. They were overall amazing to work with and handled such a big portion of our day flawlessly. Their grazing tables are beautifully displayed and they even packaged up any leftovers we had from the day!

Perfect Food for a Perfect Day

Maxwell’s Wood-Fired Catering catered our wedding on 10/5/24. The whole process from booking to the wedding day was virtually effortless. You really couldn't ask for anything better. We went with a large charcuterie, salad, 2 apps (Bacon Wrapped Scallops, oh yes!), and 4 different pizzas (Nashville Hot yummmm!). They were even kind enough to make a few cheese pizzas for our young kids. To boot, the communication between Maxwell's and the venue's wedding manager allowed us one less thing to stress about. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Amazing Pizza and Charcuterie

We hired Maxwell's for our wedding in October and we couldn't be happier. They did a full table charcuterie spread for our cocktail hour and our guests loved it. The pizzas were absolutely delicious! The staff just kept bringing out fresh pizzas and even boxed up the rest for guests to snack on the rest of the night.

Amazing pizza and flawless catering

Maxwells catered our wedding this summer and it was phenomenal! We are huge pizza lovers so when we had our tasting I knew they were the ones. They were very accommodating for our gluten free guest that everyone is still talking about it. They took care of everything and made sure our guest were happy. Highly recommend!

Ran out of food

Maxwell’s ran out of food with 36 guests left to feed. They left before I could talk to them about feeding remaining guests. When I called them afterwards, it was difficult to reach them. When I did speak to Alex, he was argumentative and also lied about refunding some of my money.
