Tara presented the cutest little tasting at her restaurant which is also so cute. The best part was that she had exactly what I asked for, and the food was AMAZING. I had to travel for the tasting and she was so flexible about timing. I would highly recommend her!

Wedding perfection
We secured the dates for our rehearsal dinner and wedding reception over a year out and we could not be any happier with the outcome. Tara and her team were absolutely amazing. We live in Summerville SC and Tara worked around our schedules to coordinate a tasting, bared with us while we changed our menus, helped us with any questions that we had and provided staff for the bar.
Both our rehearsal dinner and reception were perfect. We had guests coming up to us during both events raving about the food and telling us how phenomenal everything was.
If you are looking for a caterer for any event, look no further. You are in great hands with Tara and her team at 24 Blackbirds Cafe and Market.

Service at Its Finest from 24 Blackbirds Cafe
Working with Tara was a GREAT experience! Starting from day one with the tasting, all the way to the BIG day itself, I could not have asked for a more smooth process. Our menu choices were very reasonably priced, with no hidden costs, and Tara was extremely helpful in making our payment plan/options fit our needs.
The food was served hot and delicious and all our our guests were satisfied, and even went back for seconds. The "day of" staff was courteous and friendly, greeting guests, assisting where needed and serving with a smile!
I highly recommend 24 Blackbirds and will hire them again should the need arise.
Thanks Again, Tara!!!

Tara and her team are absolutely amazing!!! They completely knocked it out of the park, every person at my wedding was raving about the food. She even provided a donut wall with the most delicious donuts. My husband and I are so happy with how everything turned out. I totally recommend them for your wedding or big event! You won’t regret it :)

Professional and easy to work with.
I lost my caterer 3 weeks before my wedding. 24 Blackbirds had a last minute opening and I was lucky to get it! They were quick with their responses, fairly priced, and their food/service was awesome. I would’ve have gone with them from the beginning if I would’ve known. They were wonderful and I’d recommend the company to anyone needing a caterer. They have great menu selections and could not have been nicer. They were on time for the big day and worked quickly throughout dinner. Thanks for adding to my beautiful wedding day.

Tara & Mack Ferrell, owners of 24 Blackbirds were a joy to work with. They both offered excellent suggestions for out particular needs.
24 Blackbirds went above and beyond to accommodate special diet & feeding needs that we required for our event. They are understanding, creative and so easy to talk to. Tara understood my limitations, and she did everything she could to make the most of what we could do. Everything was displayed beautifully, their staff was courteous & efficient, and honestly, I could eat Mack’s potato salad every day! 😊. Thank you 24Blackbirds for accepting us, working through our stuggels, and becoming “friends”!

Tara and her team catered our large, outdoor wedding with a beautiful spread for the cocktail hour and a delicious buffet meal for our wedding guests. It was a hot day and the kitchen space was limited, but they jumped in and made it all work! We had a great experience with this company.

Wonderful people, delicious food!
We were beyond happy with 24 Blackbirds! We went for a tasting and booked them the very next day. They worked with us on the menu and even made some suggestions on how to make things work well together when we had special requests. Everything was delicious on the wedding day, too! I even saw my (very) picky aunt go back for seconds. We had vegan guests and they made separate meals for them as well. I cannot recommend 24 Blackbirds enough!

Amazing Caterer!
My husband and I were beyond thrilled with the amazing service and food that 24 Black Birds provided us for our special day! From the amazing and friendly staff to the scrumptious food- it was all beyond perfect! We decided to serve the buffet style pulled pork with all the southern fixin's (DELISH)! We also added on the bar servers to the package which was the best thing ever! They staffed the bar and allowed us to provide our own beer and wine (a good way to save $ bc a lot of companies won't let you provide your own alcohol). They also traveled to Raleigh for our wedding! We can't say enough good things about Tara and her staff at 24 Black Birds! If you have a wedding or event coming up- check her out! I promise you won't regret it!

Mother of the Groom
I hired 24 Blackbirds (Tara) to cater my son’s Wedding Rehearsal Dinner. I found the company by “googling”—from the very beginning Tara was quick to respond to my questions & provide me with all the important info. I needed. She was VERY easy to work with & willing to do whatever I asked!!
When the wedding venue had to change due to destruction from a tornado she was SO flexible as I searched for another location for the dinner.
She really helped me with deciding on the menu selections & with a payment plan! Again when the # of guests changed & increased in size she was very flexible in working
with me.
She & her workers came in to set-up while I was at the wedding rehearsal & everything was ready to go when we got to the dinner. The food was delious & displayed in a lovely manner. I heard many great comments about how good the food was & there was plenty to eat. She did box up the small amount of leftovers for us to take.
I am so glad I “found” 24 Blackbirds & would hire Tara & her crew again in a heartbeat!!

AMAZING TEAM- write out all instructions
Was such a pleasure to work with Tara and her team! Her husband makes DELICIOUS food and she knows how to set everything up to look amazing.. We did have some confusion that she was supposed to cut and serve my cake and did not. They also said they would have a water/drink station and they did not. Just make sure things are clear and written out so they know and i highly recommend them!

We absolutely loved working with them! They are comprised of an AMAZING team that is incredibly professional & friendly. Many of our guests remarked on the tastiness of the food. They have a very large variety of menu options & bundles and will get back to you in an extremely timely manner. Their price-point is wonderful and they are willing to work with you in pretty much any unique situation. Worth every penny!

24 Blackbirds catered my wedding reception and rehearsal dinner in May, and they are AMAZZIIINNNG! I'm the pickiest eater and I loved (and ate!!) every single dish. Their herb chicken is seriously the best I have ever had in my entire life. And on top of that, the owners are super nice and were so helpful in answering all of my questions. I have celiac (as did several of my wedding guests) and I really appreciate how they worked with me to make sure we could eat everything on the menu.They even thought to have plates ready for my husband and I, so we could eat as soon as we got to the reception while everyone else was in the buffet line. Highly recommend!!

Delicious food at a great price!
After testing several caterers, my daughter and her husband chose 24 Blackbirds. They're located close to the venue, which was convenient, the food was great and they were willing to work with a picky eater bride!
The catering staff was very professional and the food was excellent. Before leaving, they packed all the leftovers in containers so we could take them home. My only regret was there wasn't any of the delicious macaroni and cheese left to take home!
