Jedd C. Sent on 10/11/2024From an event planner, they are one of the best!
I am a professional event producer that travels the country to put on events from corporate conferences to special dinners and even large festivals. I've worked with hundreds of vendors and simply put, working with Steven and the John Serock Catering experience is one of the best experiences I've ever had.
Since they are a caterer, let's start with the food. Delicious with lots of great options. Whether you are looking for passed hors d'oeuvres, buffet, or plated meal, they've got you covered. The best part is that they will work with the dietary needs of your guests to make sure everyone is taken care of. They are also receptive to feedback and will work with you to ensure a great experience. I was really amazed at the variety of offerings but also the execution to deliver great food.
The onsite team is stellar. From the setup to the bar staff and servers, this whole team runs efficiently, professionally, and a lot of credit goes to Steven who makes the whole process smooth and great for all. My guests loved interacting with all the staff and as the organizer, I felt way taken care of by all of them. As for the venue, they also take great respect during the load in and load out process which makes them a favorite of venues as well.
Overall, I cannot recommend John Serock Catering enough for your next event whether it's a wedding, party, corporate dinner, etc... If they weren't based out in Pennsylvania I would no joke, hire them for all of my events if I could. I look forward to working with them if possible.John Serock Catering's reply:
Jedd,
Thank You for the kind words. Its always a joy when I see your name show up in our inbox for another event. Looking forward to many more events in the future

I was absolutely blown away by the food from John Serock Catering at our wedding—from cocktail hour to the main meal and dessert, everything was exceptional. Typically, wedding food is just “okay,” and I tend to give caterers grace since they’re producing such large quantities, but that was not the case with John Serock. Many of our guests raved about how delicious everything was and were genuinely impressed by the quality.
For dessert, we opted for mini pies, and they were super accommodating, even creating a custom blueberry-peach combo for us, which turned out amazing. After our tasting, when we tried the bread pudding served over cinnamon ice cream, we knew it had to be on our dessert menu! They happily added it for us, and it didn’t cost an arm and a leg. We also included an end-of-the-night snack—a tater tot bar—which was a huge hit with our guests. No one left hungry!
My main contact was Kristy, who was amazing throughout the entire process. She answered my many questions quickly and was incredibly helpful. The tasting was also phenomenal—they provided so much food, and everything was delicious!
John Serock is one of The Farm at Eagles Ridge exclusive caterers, and I now understand why. They are truly the best bang for your buck! Their base price includes everything you need, including linens, china, and even mixers and bartenders for the open bar. The staff on our wedding day was professional and friendly, making the entire experience seamless. As a thoughtful touch, they even gifted us an engraved champagne ice bucket with our wedding date, which was so special.
If you’re considering a caterer, I couldn’t recommend John Serock more highly! They exceeded every expectation. -

HIGHLY recommend John Serock Catering if you not only want delicious food but also for your wedding or event to run smoothly!
When I was in college I worked for John Serock Catering and after day one I knew I would be using Serock for my wedding (I didn't get married for another 8 years later and held true to my word). Not only is the food absolutely amazing, but the service you receive from John and the entire event team is unbeatable. Steven was our coordinator and he was extremely personable, answered all of our questions, and even helped come up with a back up plan for the potential of rain. Planning is clear-cut and they help ease the nerve of making difficult decisions by holding your hand along the way. All bias I have aside, I continue to get compliments about the food and staff months after my wedding. I truly could not imagine how our day could have turned out if we did not go with the Serock team. I highly recommend John Serock Catering for the delicious food, attentive servers, the support from your coordinator, and the ease of knowing the Serock team will do everything in their power to help your day run as smoothly as possible. -

Abigail D. Sent on 08/20/2024John Serock Catering is the key to a masterfully run event
Serock catering is the best of the best. From the food to the attention to detail, we had a great experience with them for our June 2024 wedding. I cannot speak highly enough of our main contact and day of coordinator Steven. He was with us throughout the planning stage, very responsive, and made everything easy and low stress. On the day of the event, Steven was there from start to finish, ensuring that everything ran perfectly. He checked in with us throughout the night, kept everyone on schedule, and was extremely professional. We received many comments on how well done the wedding was and we owe a lot of that to Steven, his staff, and their hard work throughout the night. They were attentive and anticipated our needs before we asked for them. The food was beautiful and delicious. John Serock Catering is top notch and you are in great hands with them. -

Amazing Service & Delicious Food!
The Serock Catering Team is absolutely fabulous! I do not think our day would have been as perfect as it was without the effort of their staff. First and foremost, Violet is the most thoughtful and detail-oriented Day of Coordinator. Every little thing that I asked her to do was done to a tee! Although I did not eat as much as I would have liked to on my wedding day, everything I tasted and drank was amazing. There was so many delicious, unique hors d'oeuvres for our guests to enjoy. My husband and I were well taken care of the whole evening- we didn’t have to worry about a thing! We can not recommend John Serock Catering enough! -

Cindy M. Sent on 06/20/2024Amazing, book them!
We got married at a venue that recommended John Serock Catering and when I started lookin up their menus, pictures, and reviews I knew I had to have them cater our wedding! We went to many tastings but nothing compared to John Serock. The food from cocktail hour to dinner and all the way to dessert, was absolutely delicious and perfect! Not only is the food amazing, but the staff was professional, attentive, and very organized. They took really great care of us as bride and groom the day of the wedding.
Huge shoutout to Rachael, from John Serock, who worked with us for almost two years to make our wedding food and drink dreams come true!
I will absolutely have John Serock at any catered event for the future! -

Caterer of my dreams! I've been following John Serock on IG for over 7 years now out of coincidence, and when I found my venue (the Barn at Silverstone) and heard they solely catered with John Serock, I knew I found the perfect match. Everything at the tasting was so delicious and since we had work that day and missed the appetizers/cocktail hour tasting, we went on our culinary hunches and picked the apps by the descriptions, which all turned out to be major wins. They had a nice selection of linens and they take care of all the glassware, cutlery. The day of our wedding, our food exceed the tasting. Every one of my guests raved about the food. As someone who has been to over 30 weddings this past decade, I did not have high expectations for wedding food. After all, how can you make delicious meals for almost 150 guests? Apparently they can! Our food tasted even BETTER than at our tasting and we were so, so pleased. Everyone was concerned about my food and water supply as a bride, but I find that when you are with Serock, you do not need to worry. In fact, I got so full off of cocktail I had to stop in order to make sure I can enjoy the entree. The Cabernet Short Ribs is a crowd favorite since they are so tender and fall apart, but my personal favorite is the eggplant parmesan and the Crab Cakes were also a hit. Even the desserts were fantastic and our friends had huge grins on their way from the dessert table. The cinnamon bread pudding is SO good. Nothing warms my heart more than seeing people eat so joyfully, and even make comments about it. Their team is fantastic and seamless with the cocktail hour to reception, making sure everyone had what they needed without making a disruption on our celebration. Everyone was kind, respectful & professional. I highly recommend them for all of your catering needs! I don't have photos of the entrees yet so please enjoy the table setting :) -

Amazing, Incredible, Friendly & Attentive!
Our experience with John Serock Catering a was nothing but the absolute best! Crystal Turner, the coordinator was the most friendly, attentive, and accommodating planner a bride could have at this very stressful time. Our tasting was fun, interactive and all of the suggestions and tips and tricks she had to offer were so greatly appreciated. All the questions we had leading up to the wedding were answered in a quick and timely fashion. Crystal always found a way to solve any issue that we were having. She is so well knowledged in this field and it was such a joy to work with this whole team. Our choices in food were well planned out and tweaks were made where we needed them. They partner with Master Bakers for the cake choices and let me tell you, our cake absolutely stunning! Our menu also included 2 desserts: warm Apple Cobbler and Chocolate Chip Bread pudding which were truly mouth watering. Needless to say, our wedding day was smooth and gorgeous. The little flaws we had were handled with such ease by Crystal. She truly made the day stress-free. I highly recommend this caterer and especially Crystal, for any event that you may throw. Crystal was an absolute joy and pleasure to work with throughout the whole planning process. Well worth every penny! My husband and I had the best wedding, due hugely in part by the amazing team at John Serock Catering! -

Marlee N. Sent on 11/28/2023AMAZING! Would use again!
John Serock Catering was outstanding for my November 18,2023 wedding! We worked with Rachael Werley and she was so great! So responsive and answered all my questions. We first met her at an open house event and tried some food there, everything we ate, and I mean EVERYTHING, was good. I don't normally like salmon and their salmon was to die for! All of our wedding guests raved over the food. Rachel was at my wedding and even made sure I was ok and had a drink, going above and beyond her duties. I would choose them again in a heartbeat. I loved them! -

Andrea H. Sent on 01/01/2024Incredible Catering Company for our Wedding!!
Serock Catering exceeded expectations for our wedding day! The food was INCREDIBLE at our tasting and at the wedding with 150+ people. Kristy at Serock was so easy to work with prior to the day of, the coordination at the rehearsal and making sure the groom and I were always well fed and had everything we needed on the wedding day. The entire staff was so friendly and our wedding night ran so smooth, I cannot recommend this catering company enough for making our day so special!!
We had a Pittsburgh cookie table that Kristy and team offered to help setup, box up and tear down. They were so accommodating to all of our requests and adjusted when we brought extra cookies than expected. We still have so many guests complimenting on how incredible the staff and food was! -

Our wedding was elevated to a whole new level of culinary excellence thanks to John Serock Catering. The food was an absolute highlight, leaving a lasting impression on our guests who couldn't stop raving about the delicious flavors and impeccable presentation.

Her meticulous approach and attention to detail were evident throughout the planning process and on the day of the event. From coordinating the menu selections to overseeing the service, Crystal's professionalism and expertise shone through, allowing us to relax and enjoy our day with complete confidence.

Darian B. Sent on 11/11/2023The best wedding caterers
My husband and I got married about a month ago and our wedding guests are still talking about how delicious the food was at our wedding! My husband and I especially appreciated that the Serocking catering staff made sure to bring a tray of apps over to us so we could snack while taking pictures during cocktail hour. My husband is not very big on sweets and typically only eats them if he has a glass of milk. Our day of coordinator remembered him mentioning this during our food tasting and made sure to bring a glass of milk out for him during our cake cutting! We loved that they remembered this minor detail and went above and beyond to make sure he could enjoy our wedding cake. Thank you Serock catering team for helping to make our wedding day so special! -

Incredible team, amazing food, absolute experts in the industry
We worked with John for our wedding this past June—and I can confidently say he is the reason our reception went off without a hitch. When I initially was researching caterers, I knew I needed someone who felt comfortable working at an offsite family venue. The reception space we used was a very unique location and it required a bit more attention to detail in the planning process. I felt so lost given how much work I realized I was in for, but John and his team put this at ease. They are insanely knowledgeable, responsive, and helped us deliver a spectacular wedding reception. From the planning process to day-of coordination, Serock Catering is the team you want to be working with. I had a vision of hosting a casual, social, yet elevated reception with stations and large open displays of food. People were running up to me all night saying, ‘this is the best food I’ve had at a wedding ever!’ While I am biased, I would have to agree! His team was so professional, friendly, and kind to all our guests throughout the night. All I heard were praises. Cheers to John Serock and his team—you made my vision to life and I am so thankful to have worked with you over the past year. I highly x10 recommend him to any future couples or events. -

We are so lucky that Serock was the exclusive caterer for our wedding at the Barn at Silverstone! We were blown away at our food tasting at how incredible everything tasted. We’ve been told by many of our guests that it was the best cocktail hour they’ve ever been to, AND that the dinner food was the best wedding food they’ve ever had. The servers and bartenders provided excellent service. Kristy, the coordinator for Serock at Silverstone, was an absolute God-send as our right-hand woman throughout the planning process and on the day of. She is one of the main reasons our day ran flawlessly, and we were at ease knowing the details were in her hands. Due to her flawless execution of her timeline, we actually ended up ahead of schedule, which gave us more time on the dance floor! Caroline was the server assigned to my husband & I throughout the night, and it felt like every time we turned around she had a new drink for us or was offering us more food! We felt so taken care of by Kristy, Caroline, and everyone at Serock and are so grateful for their amazing services! I will recommend them over and over again!!!
