Bravo from a grateful Venue Owner!

I own a wedding venue (The Barn at Black Walnut Farm in Saugerties), and because we don't offer in-house catering, we rely on outside catering businesses to provide the food for our events. As you can imagine, a couple's choice of caterer can make or break a wedding-- and we have seen it all; the good, the bad, and the ugly...

That said, we were all simply blown away by Spice Catering's team, service, and food! Honestly the service was flawless and probably the best we have seen at our venue-- Erick the Maitre D' was nothing less than a true pro and really impressed us all! Kate at the bar is amazing, and every team member we got to interact with had the best attitude. And, to top it off, Chef Billy's food was phenomenal.

After the event was over, I learned that the crew unfortunately had a faulty oven rental that needed to be switched out mid-event, so I was even more impressed that they pulled it off so seamlessly! The logistics of providing offsite catering can be a challenge-- and knowing that Spice Catering has mastered this makes me so confident in recommending them to all of our couples.
Bravo, Spice Catering team, we can't wait to have you back at our venue again soon!

My 65th Birthday Party

Billy Turner, Director of Sugar and Spice Catering promised a beautiful event and did he/they deliver!! His staff took care of everything. The food was absolutely delicious, my guests really enjoyed everything. During the planning phase, the menu selection was so extensive that I could not decide. Billy just said to pick out what I like, and he planned a beautiful menu that was affordable and perfect for my event. My guests have not stop talking about the food, especially the short ribs as well as the avocado/crab cone
His assistant, Leanne did a wonderful job with room decor and arrangement, as well as managing the event. His team was incredibly gracious and kind. Finally, if you are a "nervous nelly" like me, you will appreciate Billy's calm, reassuring and patient attitude. I highly recommend this caterer.

The best decision you can make for your wedding!!

If i could make a living traveling the world to recommend Sugar & Spice and turn them into a world renowned caterer, I would. From the moment we spoke to Billy, told him our vision and he created a custom menu that absolutely nailed everything we talked about, we knew Sugar & Spice would be one of our favorite vendors to work with. Throughout the planning process Billy was nothing but a pleasure to talk to and deal with. We thought things couldn’t get much better until we were introduced to our Maître D, Erick. Between the two of them they put out fires, were a calming voice and understanding sounding board and were just overall our favorite part of wedding planning.

And then of course there’s the food. We were told my multiple people it was the best food they ever had at a wedding. At first I figured It was polite words to a bride and groom but this same review then came from 2 specific guests that we know for a fact would not lie, so trust me, this is the gods honest truth. We also had a ton of pizzas delivered for an after party, most of which did not get eaten because our guests were thoroughly and legitimately full and satisfied from dinner.

There are truly not enough words to express how grateful we are to have found and worked with the Sugar & Spice team.
