Jared W. Sent on 11/25/2019Best (Wedding) Food Ever? (Spoiler) Yes.
This is the one review I was dreading because it's going to be hard to put into words how incredible/amazing/delicious/helpful this caterer is, but I'll try.
Let me start with Jillian, the special events manager for The Manor Tavern. She is A-M-A-Z-I-N-G. Extremely responsive, extremely accommodating, and extremely friendly. She helped us plan every single part of the food experience for the wedding, conveyed exactly what we wanted to the chef (HUGE thank you to the chef and his team by the way), and answered every question we had no matter what it was about.
From the moment we walked in the door, Jillian had a huge smile on her face, had us in a private dining room away from the guests to try the food, explained every single plate to us, left us alone to try everything, and then would come back and take notes on every single plate. Now I'll preface this with saying that my wife and I are absolute food snobs, and this is where we wanted to spend most of the money because we wanted the food to blow people away. Unfortunately, the term "blow people away" doesn't have enough of a wow factor to describe how good this food is. THEY CAN COOK! Every single thing we tried was some of the best food we've ever had, and we've had food from all over the world. We're already planning the 2.5 one way trip to go back for our anniversary. We had 5 passed appetizers, 2 stationary apps, and 4 entree selections. They nailed every single one of them, there wasn't a single plate that we didn't receive some kind of compliment on! We even had to coordinate kosher meals for some of the guests and they were able to handle that no problem as well! They also adjusted one of their recipes to match one that I found because I didn't like the way they made it, and they made it way better than I ever have.
If you're still looking around for the perfect caterer, you're done, this is it.The Manor Tavern's reply:
Jared & Shelby,
I cannot thank you enough for your kind words. They are so appreciated and I cannot begin to explain how grateful I am you choose Manor Tavern to help with such a special time of your lives.
To say it was a pleasure to help you is an understatement! From the moment I met you two at Cloisters, I knew we would have fun planning the food for your wedding. Your enthusiasm and energy about the quality of the food was so exciting, and that energy went into the entire planning process. All of your D.I.Y. projects turned our amazing and was such a special touch to such a special couple. Getting to know you was even more fun- you two have such a great bond, and it showed every time we were together.
Thank you so much for choosing us to cater your wedding. I wish you a lifetime of happiness and prosperity together and look forward to seeing you back here in Monkton to celebrate your Anniversary.
Cheers and Congratulations again!
Sincerely,
Jillian Webber -

Nancy W. Sent on 09/21/2019Wonderful Experience for Rehearsal Dinner
We highly recommend the Manor Tavern for your wedding, rehearsal dinner, or event. Jillian, and every member of the staff that we worked with, was extremely friendly and helpful during each phase of our event - from helping us choose a package that was within our budget, planning the event, choosing the wine list, decorating the hall, preparing delicious food, to providing fabulous customer service the evening of our rehearsal dinner. We are pleased with every aspect of the Manor Tavern. They made the rehearsal dinner for our son and daughter-in-law the special event that we had envisioned! -

Diana Sent on 07/20/2018A wonderful wedding and great experience. Nice ambience, delicious food, attentive staff. I can't say enough good things about Manor Tavern. Special mention to Terry Lombardi, the catering manager, who paid attention to every detail and had some great ideas of her own. I would absolutely recommend the Manor Tavern to anyone!

Ruby Sent on 12/28/2019A to Z a pleasure!
We had a wedding at a private, family-owned barn in Maryland and hired Terry and Jillian at Manor Tavern to cater our event. Oh man, was it worth it! We had a lot of unknowns along the way, but they were great at adjusting and going with the flow. We were going to have an outdoor ceremony, but at the last minute we had a huge rainstorm. Her team was great in helping us move everything into the barn and then crossing everything back to dinner set-up. As a normally working barn, we cleaned everything up beforehand, but there was still mud to contend with and ants and general barn mess. They worked around it all! They helped set out boards to get to the bathrooms, didn't complain at all about the extra time at the end of the night it took to get their trucks through the field, moved the cupcake table when someone realized the ants were starting to find them in one of the stalls. Thankfully, I knew none of this until after everything was over. They handled anything that came their way. The food was delicious. I have to say, I did take more time to enjoy the food during the tasting than at the wedding (as is always the case) BUT everyone was happy. Terry and Jillian were always a joy and by the end of our wedding, parting was such sorrow! We were so close and then it's all over! We had such a blast that by the end of the night, several of the staff, Jillian and Terry included, joined our conga line and partook in photos at the photo booth. We were thrilled that they brought so much joy to the event. -
