Excellent!

My family spends a lot of time at Pub32 so it was only a matter of time before we used their catering services. Over the past few years, they have catered smaller family gatherings like Thanksgiving to large specialized events with almost 70 guests. They even did a fully personalized and specifically curated 50th birthday party including drinks that Calvin (their star bartender!) came up with for the night. They have a really great system in place - meetings with Chef Dean and Paul (the Manager), e-mails confirming the discussion, and great menu items to choose from. They always accommodate our requests and make it all work so seamlessly. They really treat us like family!! We love the food, the service, and the people. We would recommend their catering service in a heartbeat.

More than just caterers!

About three months before our wedding, we decided to have a reception. Fortunately, we stumbled upon Lauryn, Dean, Paul and the entire Thirty Two Elite team. While we were initially skeptical about having a “pub” cater our wedding reception, we were sold after meeting the team. They asked us what we wanted, listened, and developed a game plan. Throughout the process, Lauryn was attentive to all of our needs and was highly accessible. Then, day of, the Team executed. All we wanted was for our guests to have a great time, so we were thrilled that the first thing we heard when we arrived at the venue after pictures was our signature cocktails (tequila based cocktails curated by Lauryn) were a hit. Oh yeah, the food was excellent too. We went with a short rib mash and a salmon carving station, along with the tenderloin crostini, beef satay, and crab cakes, which we and our guests loved (they also made it a point to bring us appetizers while we were taking pictures). So to go back to our summary of them being more than just caterers, as happy as we were about the food and its execution, we were most impressed with how they made us feel from beginning to end. At no point in time did we have any concerns about the food and drinks, which we felt were the two most important parts of the reception, which freed us to figure out the other parts of our wedding in the incredibly short time we had to do so.

Highly recommended

Thirty-Two Elite Catering - Wonderful Team

I was so impressed with Thirty-Two Elite Catering. For my 65 birthday we had a small gathering (21 people) and everything was perfect. They offered appetizers, salads, desserts that pleased everyone at the party. The service was wonderful, with everything thought out in advance. The cost was affordable and very reasonable. My guests were welcomed warmly and everyone had a blast. Highly recommend this company. Don't forget the tip!
