    Best wedding food ever

    We used Keane's Wood Fired Catering for our wedding in Newport, Rhode Island on June 15th and they were absolutely amazing. Multiple people told me after that it was the best wedding food they've ever had.

    The owner, Padraic, was super attentive, went out of his way to make us food for pickup when we couldn't go to a public tasting, and called me a few days before to double check on which beer we wanted.

    Exceptional customer service, attention to detail, and planning, but most importantly the food is delicious. Worth every penny.

    Fabulous Experience with Keanes

    From the time we first inquired about the services offered by Keanes through the wedding day it was a delight to work with Kym and Kate. They were always responsive to our requests and questions. We chose a family style dinner with a cocktail hour and open bar throughout the evening. From the appetizers to the fabulous drinks and finally the delicious dinner we had no complaints. Special care was taken to accommodate a variety of allergies and food preferences. The servers were professional, friendly and went above and beyond my expectations. I highly recommend Keanes.

    Fabulous food and service

    I cannot thank Keane's enough for catering our event on Sunday, 4/28. The food was fabulous! The communication between them and I was fantastic and very very easy....from ordering, changing my order, paying for the event, right down to the delivery. I also received compliment after compliment while folks were eating.
    I will definitely use Keane's again and you should too!

    Such a wonderful experience!

    Kym during the planning process was thorough and detail oriented. She was such a huge help when it came down to the nitty gritty details of the day. The day of event staff were nothing short of amazing! Luke made sure my husband and I were well taken care of and our bellies were full! He checked in on us multiple times throughout the evening. We have had nothing but amazing compliments from guests saying it was the best food they’ve ever had at a wedding. 10/10 will recommend Keane’s and would choose them over and over again if I could!!

    Keane's is truly amazing!

    If you have the opportunity to hire Keane's for your event- DO IT! The entire team was fabulous from start to finish. Kym was SO easy to work with and made sure everything was perfect. Special shout out to Luke- he kept us fed and checked in with us throughout the entire evening. The food was phenomenal...we still have guests raving about how delicious everything was! We truly could not have asked for a better experience and are so happy we went with Keane's for our wedding food. 10 out of 10, would highly recommend!

    The best - my guests are still talking about the food

    The team at Keans is unbelievable. The service we had from the planning stage throughout the entire process was top tier and as a stressed bride, I couldn't thank them enough. The food is UNREAL and with some very picky guests, we heard nothing but positive feedback on how delicious the meal was!!!

    Fantastic experience with Keanes

    Keanes was one of the best choices that we made for our wedding day. Working with Kym was exceptional. She was responsive, professional, calm, and so positive. She made us feel great. Kym walked us through our options, ways we could customize our day, and had suggestions to resolve every concern or update we thought of. On the day the team was so great at setup, service, and breakdown. We really appreciated that Keanes could come onto site with their own wood-fired ovens, as our venue did not have a kitchen. Our guests raved about the food (including the apps, the deviled eggs and bluefish in particular) and so many came back up for seconds. Our families had concerns about doing barbeque because it was not "traditional", and a buffet, but they are all converts now. It was elegant, fun, and everyone appreciated having such a wide selection to choose from. Keanes was also exceptional about allergies. We had guests with Celiac disease, multiple types of allergies, dietary restrictions, etc., and they handled those with no problem. Everyone was able to enjoy fully. I also wanted to point out the level of service that Keanes gave us. Right after our ceremony Kym had a board of all of the appetizers, and our specialty cocktails brought to us. When we joined dinner our plates were ready and on our sweetheart table. The flip from dinner to serving cakes that we brought in was seamless, and even though they did not provide the rentals (plates, utensils, etc.) they still serviced the cleanup. We felt taken care of the whole day, and feel very grateful that we chose Keanes.

    Best food & friendliest, most accommodating staff!

    We had Luke & Amber at our event yesterday, and I cannot say enough wonderful things about them!
    They both surpassed our expectations, and it was a genuine pleasure to have them! The food was nothing short of outstanding! We happen to have many food allergies, from nuts to gluten to dairy, and Luke & Amber were so attentive to the allergies, that I was able to enjoy my guests rather than worrying about allergies! Every guest remarked on the incredible food & impressive service! Keane’s will remain our go-to caterer for all future events, and we may very well request Luke and Amber too!

    Keanes Wood Fired Catering's reply:

    So delighted to hear that! Thank you or letting us take care of you and your guests on your special day!

    Seriously, the BEST!

    Keane's provided the absolute BEST catered meal, the guests are still raving. From the smell in the neighborhood of the food being cooked in the smoker, to the appetizers, brisket and salmon and best bar staff ever... they have left us with memories of a great day. Kim and staff were fun, professional and part of the great time had by all.
    It is a relief to know I will still be able to order from Keane's for take home meals. Their food is THE BEST.
    Thank you all for such a great day.

    Keane's is the greatest in every way

    Keane's catered my daughter's wedding and they were absolutely fantastic. In addition to delicious food and amazing staff, every step of the way Kim, my main contact at Keane's, was always there to provide very helpful advice and suggestions when we needed it. Can't wait to have a reason to work with Keane's again! We also used their vintage plates too which were great looking and unique! Thank you Keane's and Kim for everything!

    Keane's Kicks Up Your Wedding!

    Keane's provided our catering for our outdoor wedding of 150 people. Our experience was incredible-- from working with their event manager Kim, she was SO helpful in our planning, to the onsite staff who delivered the best event we could ever ask for. Everyone is kind, fun, and accommodating. We would hire them again in a heartbeat!

    They are an upscale bbq caterer. A great addition to any event. The food satisfies even the picky eater. The staff is helpful and friendly. They provided our drinks and appetizers. All tastes really good. Your guests will be satisfied with a great meal and you will be happy that little went to waste. Best money ever spent.

    Best wedding caterer!

    The Keane's team was so helpful from the beginning stages of planning. Kim was there every step of the way to help us with the menu, rentals, and perfecting our vision for our wedding day. Day of, Padriac and the team were prompt and professional. He made sure my husband and I were able to enjoy the appetizers while we were finishing up pictures and he even made us plates of food before the buffet started. Our guests were talking about how it was the best wedding food they've had and how they're going to have to order from Keane's in the future.

    The nicest staff and the yummiest food!

    Keane’s catered my wedding this past Saturday and they were amazing! We had multiple guests grab their information so that they could use them or simply get their food! They made sure to bring the passed apps over to the family and wedding party while we shoot photos which was awesome since most of us hadn’t eat that day! The food was so so good my husband and I ended up just sitting and eating the left overs once everyone left haha! Seriously they were amazing and Kim was so so so helpful with rentals and coordination! Loved working with them and their food was incredible! (Seriously the brisket was to die for lol!)

    Would definitely recommend!

    Keane's did a wonderful job with our wedding. They had great choices, everything was good quality and they ran on time. We had some issues with our rental vendor and the Keane's team hopped in and helped us figure out a plan to work around that. They were all wonderful and made sure our special day went smoothly. We loved the food and we keep getting compliments from our guests on them. Would definitely recommend!

    Amazing food with service to match


    Keane’s Wood Fired Catering was the star of our wedding night! Even months later we have not stopped hearing from our guests how incredibly delicious the food was! Padraic and his team are extremely professional, so very friendly, and an absolute pleasure to work with. Excellent communication, so responsive, and willing to work with any and all of our requests. The service on our big day was so wonderful we couldn’t have asked for better. Padraic worked so hard to ensure that our wedding night was everything we wanted it to be and thanks to him it was everything we imagined and more! He and his team worked so well with our other vendors, and even assisted them at our wedding when things weren’t going as we planned. The beautiful vintage plates provided by Keane’s was such a nice added touch that both us and our guests really loved! They are more than just a catering service, I truly feel that Keane’s made our wedding! I recommend Keane’s Wood Fired Catering without any hesitation, they are absolutely THE BEST!

    Keane's for the win!

    Padraic, Kaylyn and their wonderful team took amazing care of us on our big day! It was important for us to have very high quality, tasty food for our (160!) guests, as they all know how much my husband and I love food and cooking. We were very disappointed with so many other options out there- they all looked so boring and flavorless- until we found Keane's.

    Padraic worked with us every step of the way and made sure we had options for vegetarian guests, were happy with the budget, and felt at ease. I can't stress the importance of that during such a hectic time. It was truly something we didn't have to worry about!

    Right after the ceremony, the Keane's staff made rounds with trays of delicious apps (yum, the keilbasa!) When it was time for dinner, they called each table up to the buffet where the most amazing brisket, chicken and sides were served. When it came time to cut the cake, the staff even helped with that- above and beyond every step of the way!

    To this day, so many guests continue to talk about the food at our wedding, which was one of our favorite parts as well.

    If you want sophisticated & delicious food, but a more casual vibe, like we did, Keane's is the perfect answer.

    Absolutely The Best

    Our food was one of our favorite parts of our wedding. We got so many compliments that it was the best food some of our guests had ever had at a wedding. Working with them was an absolute joy. Padraic is quick to respond to emails and was accommodating to our guests' dietary needs. We love continuing to visit Keane's at their various brewery popups.

    The Perfect Blend of Flavor & Elegance

    We initially hired Keanes for our wedding in 2020 but needed to reschedule due to COVID and they couldn’t have been more accommodating (even going as far as to package up food and arrange a pickup for our tasting)! Their food & service was the perfect mixture of locally sourced homemade ingredients and being able to serve BBQ in a white tablecloth atmosphere. Everything from the constant communication to the seamless set up made our wedding day very memorable and stress-free. I would highly recommend Keanes for any occasion.

    Incredible Food & Service from Keane's!

    HIRE KEANE'S TO CATER YOUR EVENT!

    We hired Keane's for our wedding and we were floored by their service! I (the bride) am a vegetarian and I never thought I'd hire a meat-based restaurant to cater our wedding but Keane's was an amazing choice! They have a huge menu that adequately accommodated our guests with dietary restrictions and preferences.

    Kim is incredible to work with and made sure, through countless rounds of e-mails, that we got exactly what we wanted from our event. I can't recommend Kim, specifically, highly enough.

    On the day of our wedding my now-husband and I received a personal dish of hors d'oeuvres to attempt to eat in between chatting with guests during the cocktail hour! Unfortunately, as the bride & groom, you barely get to eat on your wedding day but this definitely helped us get our hands on some food. We also got served first during our buffet style dinner and all the staff were so lovely!

    We received so many compliments on both the food and the service at the event! We received the HIGHEST compliments on the brisket (my husband's grandfather, who's 86, said the brisket was the best piece of meat he's EVER had), the mac & cheese (our gluten-free guests were THRILLED to be able to eat a huge selection of the food at the buffet), and the portobello mushrooms (my friend who doesn't like portobello mushrooms loved it and I personally thought it was a much more unique treatment of portobello mushrooms than would usually be served at a restaurant).

    We also heard from so many people who got shout outs on their outfits from the catering staff which made everyone feel wonderful. Keane's did a stellar job and we're so grateful they were part of our day!
