5 Stars is not enough!

I feel so fortunate and blessed to have found Mission Catering through a recommendation by my cousin. We started by contacting Tim last fall and headed to Franklin to come up with a menu and budget. He was so incredibly kind and helpful and worked with us easily on our budget. When Covid hit the catering industry hard, Tim took another job so he could keep paying his staff to work. Talk about a selfless boss! Ines, the pastry chef, began managing our planning and did an excellent job of answering my questions and then conducting our tasting in the spring. At our wedding a couple of weeks ago, Tim and the staff were there to provide us with the most perfect service of any wedding I have ever seen. The food was absolutely delicious and the cakes were breathtaking! Our guests are still raving about the food! We had such a fantastic experience with Tim and Ines from planning to completion. The taco bar was so fun and they made it all look and taste great! I cannot imagine that there is a better caterer in the Bowling Green area.

Our guest are still talking about their food!

Mission Catering Co were such an awesome vendor for our April wedding. From the beginning, building our custom menu to the big day. They answered all my questions, were patient with my last minute changes and concerns. The staff on site were the absolute sweetest too. I'd walk in looking for appetizers once they switched to dinner because brides know you never get to actually eat on your wedding 🤣 They ran back into the kitchen and grabbed whatever I wanted with no fuss.

Most importantly, the food and cake was delicious! Our guests are still talking about their empanadas and tacos. I am legit counting down till we can dig into our anniversary cake. We cannot wait to have them cater our future events.

Wedding Caterer

We had Mission Catering cater for our wedding (as well as handle the open bar and cake) and we can't thank them enough! The food was out of this world, and guests complimented us for days on it. Even the photographer and DJ were excited that we had Mission since they'd been to weddings with them before and knew about the quality! Tim and his team made the booking and tasting process a breeze and they were quick to answer any questions we had leading up to the date. Highly recommended!

Wedding client

Mission Catering Company catered our wedding and they were amazing! We got so many compliments on how delicious the food was. I would not recommend anyone else. You won’t find people with bigger hearts who love what they do. Our special day would not have been the same with them.

The very best catering company!

Mission Catering is THE best catering company. We hired them to cater our wedding and everything was flawless and perfect. We had multiple multiple comments on just how delicious the food was - even weeks after our wedding! Most people say that they hardly remember what they ate on their wedding day or that they didn't even get to eat. However, that is not the case for my husband and I. We will always remember the extremely professional service and culinary talent provided by Mission Catering Co. along with how amazing everything tasted. Also, everything was presented so beautifully! The staff have the biggest hearts and truly helped make our day smooth and memorable. We would never use another catering company.

Incredible in every way!

I always recommend them to any friends of mine that get engaged! I was immediately impressed by Mission Catering when we sat down for our menu consultation. The way they work so well with each other and come up with great dishes based off of our own personal taste preferences was great! They were so accommodating, even to my picky husband. Their staff is so friendly and you can tell they love what they do. They don’t just do it as their jobs; you can tell they truly care for everyone they work with. Tim brought such a fun energy to our wedding and was such a joy to have around. The food was delicious, and I honestly wish they could cater all of my meals!

Dream wedding

Mission Catering did a fantastic job at our son’s wedding. My daughter in law and I met with them and laid out our wants and dreams. Our daughter in law had a vision for the cake, that they not only met but knocked out of the ballpark. Tim and Johanna are wonderful to work with and make you feel like family.
Ines, their cake decorator, has mad skills!!

Wedding caterer

Mission catering is amazing! They did such a great job for my wedding. We got so many compliments on the food from our guests. Their smoked Gouda Mac and cheese is the best Mac and cheese in the whole world! I could eat that everyday. They were super professional and helpful throughout the planning process. I also had them do my wedding cake which was the coolest cake I’ve ever seen! We had a superhero theme for the wedding so she made the back of the cake into different superhero layers complete with a small Deadpool peeking out from under the cake! It was the most amazing thing! And delicious 2! I highly recommend mission catering for weddings and other events!!

Best food ever

So I don't even know where to start. Mission Catering blew it out of the water. The food was DELICIOUS, the service was INCREDIBLE, the staff was FANTASTIC. They were so easy to work with and super helpful in allowing us to take our time in our decisions. They day of, they walked around serving apps and we had a carving station. They even saved my husband and I leftovers to eat that night. They were gracious and did everything they could to make us happy. The guests are still commenting on how delicious the food was.

Mission Catering provided a wonderful buffet lunch for my daughter's wedding in March. Working with them was the least stressful part of planning a wedding. We had several dietary restrictions: gluten free, vegan, low carb, and several food allergies. They came up with a wonderful mediterranean menu that satisfied every requirement. Guests feasted on hummus served with crudite and pita, marinated lamb kabobs, chicken kabobs, veggie kabobs, a constructed tabbouleh salad, Greek salad, wild rice pilaf, and tzatziki sauce. The food was absolutely delicious! So much so, in fact, that our church hired them, on the spot, to cater our annual seder dinner. Mission Catering also made special chocolate tarts for our gluten-free guests that were fantastic! Three weeks later, guests are still talking about how delicious the food was. The chef and staff at Mission Catering are culinary geniuses, extremely creative, and approach events with a friendly sense of calm and humor. They arrived on time and left the event area spotless. Mission Catering incorporated several family antique pieces into the serving line to go with our vintage theme. These were returned in pristine condition. I found Mission Catering after calling more than 20 caterers all over the Nashville area who either would not travel to our reception area, or whose prices exceeded our budgeted per-person price by more than double. For what we would have paid for a coffee and cake reception, we had a gourmet buffet lunch featuring lamb! What a bargain! Can I say again how delicious everything was?
Weeks later, we are still getting comments. Thank you, Tim, Joanna, and Nick of Mission Catering for making our daughter's wedding so special. You can cook for us ANYTIME!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
