    Delicious and a hit with the guests!

    The Uptown team was amazing! We went with the gourmet baked potato bar and it was just perfect. Everyone was talking about how great it was! Thank you for everything.

    Alicia Root has an amazing craft for wedding cakes!

    Alicia Root was our consultant/baker for our wedding cake and it was absolutely beautiful!! She is very meticulous and went out of her way to respond to our specific requests. She was genuinely interested in seeing our Pinterest board of cake designs so that she could make us the cake of our dreams.
    Alicia was honestly one of the most talented, detail-oriented, yet personable vendors we have ever met. She gets the job done and she made our wedding day sweet, literally and figurativelty. We will most definitely be doing business with her in the future and we highly recommend her for any catering services. She is amazing! Thank you, Alicia!

    Beautiful delicious cakes!

    The price was very reasonable and the cake was so moist and delicious! We sat down with Heather for the consult and tasting and she was able to answer all of our questions. The price was almost half of what other places were wanting to charge for a 3 tier wedding cake plus a round grooms cake. We paid $450 with tax, delivery and set up. I love the fact that she is the only one working on the wedding cake from start to finish to avoid any confusions. Will definitely get all my cakes from Uptown Grocery!

    Great vendor!

    Morgan was so friendly and excellent when it came to helping us decide on our wedding menu. I think we had several changes but she was patient every time, either on the phone, through email, or in person. I am so happy that we went with Uptown for our special day. It really made it worth it. Also all the additional staff was super nice and friendly.

    Uptown Grocery in the Village did both my cake & flowers. Both of them turned out exactly as I had imagine.
    We did a cake/cupcake combo and everything was delicious. Everyone raved about how great they were. They also re-make the top layer of your wedding cake on your one year anniversary so you don't have to freeze it.
    The flowers were absolutely gorgeous. Brenda really understood the look I was going for & 100% delivered. My wedding was shortly after Hurricane Harvey and during Hurricane Irma so not all the original flowers we decided on were available. Brenda was able to find beautiful substitutes to ensure my vision remained intact.
    Also the pricing for both services cannot be beat. Overall I'm so happy with how everything turned out and will recommend Uptown to everyone!

    They deserve 10 stars for quality- value - creativity - and professionalism!
    They provided flowers for my daughter's wedding and I could not believe the price and the flowers provided. The women who set up at the venue were punctual and professional.

    I can't say enough good things about Uptown. If you order at least $50 from catering, bakery, and floral departments they will give you free set up and delivery, which can be pretty expensive! The food was great and the flowers on my cake and for my ΔZ sisters were perfect. The people in each department were so easy and fun to work with and I knew the day of my wedding I wouldn't have anything to worry about where they were concerned.

    We used Uptown Grocery on N. May Ave/The Village for our wedding cake and wedding flowers. Tammy did an amazing job with our cake and cupcakes! The cupcakes were an add on, for a VERY reasonable price. The cake looked and tasted amazing! I ordered cake flowers through Brenda, and Tammy placed them perfectly on the cake! Brenda did a fabulous job with our wedding bouquets and boutonnieres. I was so impressed with how fantastic both the flowers and the cake turned out. The prices were great, and they were both very easy to work with and perfectly recreated my vision. I would Highly recommend them!

    We used Uptown for our wedding flowers and they were absolutely PERFECT! Beth was so sweet and easy to work with and made my vision become a reality! Every guest at our wedding just raved how beautiful the flowers were and the owner of the venue said that they were the most beautiful flowers they have had! The flowers were supposed to arrive at 4 pm, and they arrived 2 hours earlier than expected, which alleviated a lot of stress in decorating the venue before the wedding!

    Tammy was kind and very friendly and patient during the planning process. Cake tasting fees go to the total cost of your cake and it was the best cake we had had after trying multiple vendors. She was very organized, checked in several times the week of the wedding and the cake not only tasted amazing, but looked stunning as well. I would highly recommend Tammy with uptown grocery co and we are looking forward to our fresh anniversary cake tier on our wedding anniversary!

    We got our wedding cake and groom's cake through Tammy at Uptown, and she was an absolute peach! We loved our cake, and thought it came out beautiful, and exactly how we wanted it. She, as well as the whole event team at Uptown, were the easiest vendor to deal with during our wedding. They were always very responsive, and always made me feel like my business was appreciated. They even provide an anniversary cake to you for your 1 year! Loved the service, and I will recommend their event services department to friends and family.

    I cannot say enough good things about Uptown Grocery Catering. I found them through Wedding Wire and was kind of surprised that the grocery store just down the street from us catered events. We contacted Rebecca and she was so helpful! We set up an appointment and she helped guide us through the buffet choices offering very helpful advice on food choices. They had so many choices of entrees and sides that we were able to provide a large variety of choices to our guests! Price wise, they came in way under any other quote that we'd received but that didn't compromise quality or taste in any way. We got SO many compliments on the food! The staff boxed up all of the leftover food and we were able to enjoy it the next day with all our family in town, it was still just as delicious! I would recommend Uptown Catering to anyone for their event catering needs. I will be sure to use them again for any catering event I may have in the future.

    We had Tammy make my cake and his. Mine was of course beautiful and tasted amazing. Better than many stores that just make cakes. It still amazes me that the cakes came from a grocery store. Regardless, his cake was my favorite! He loves fishing so I wanted him to have a cake to reflect that. She came up with the idea of making a little pond with grass tufts and graham cracker sand. I bought some little fishing poles and things from hobby lobby and she placed everything. I was blown away! She is awesome!

    We contracted with all three services from Uptown for my daughter's wedding. Beth from floral, Rebecca from catering and Tammy from the bakery all were excellent communicators and helped us to keep costs within our budget. The cake and flowers were beautiful and we especially appreciated the catering service delivery, set-up, servers, and clean-up! Thanks to the entire Uptown team for their professionalism and expertise in helping to create a beautiful event!

    Beth and her team at Floral Fusion are absolutely wonderful. Beth would sit down with me and discuss all the details. I would send her pictures off Pinterest in an email and she prints them and saves them to your file. She is very straight forward with the pricing, and the flower are very reasonable. She is the sweetest lady, and you will not be sorry about using them for your floral service!!

    Uptown Grocery is amazing, and they have an amazing event team!

    Not only was my catering done through them, my cake and all of my flowers were also through Uptown. I guess I will go through each section and how much I loved the service from Uptown! The main event coordinator that I talked to and met with, her name was Ashley!

    Flowers: I met with Beth and showed her pictures of what I wanted and she knew exactly what flowers were in each bouquet and which ones would be in season during my wedding. I was very impressed by there service and knowledge. Even when I sent her pictures of any changes or ideas, they knew exactly what they were doing. Everyone loved each floral arrangement they saw in the wedding!

    Cake: I sent Ashley a few emails with pictures of cakes that I liked the style of. She quickly would talk to the baking department and find out if it was something they could do. In the end, I got exactly what I wanted and it look so beautiful! The best part is that it was tasty! We were able to have a cake tasting with their flavors and icings, everyone at my wedding loved the cherry chip cake with a cherry and cream cheese filling. One great thing about Uptown is that you dont have to save your top layer of cake for your 1 year anniversary. They will actually remake your top layer of cake for your anniversary the next year!

    Catering: The first step was to see their very broad menu of anything from italian, american and mexican style food. Then after we looked at it, we picked a few items to try for the tasting. The food was delicious in the tasting and at the wedding! I could not have been more pleased with the yumminess of the food. I do have to say, the only thing I was a little disappointed with is that they didnt decorate the food table liked they had talked about. But another thing my parents loved is that Uptown gathered and packaged all the left over food for them to take home and eat with our families that were in town.
