Amazing food, great presentation, good prices. I have used them twice for business functions and everyone raved about the food. They loved the chicken pot pie!!

I needed Platters' help to cater an office lunch in Guelph. Right from the start to the very finish, Platters provided incredible customer service. The speed of their responses and their advice was amazing. Delivery was right on time, the food was packaged perfectly, and it looked and tasted fantastic. I will absolutely use them in the future because they made everything so effortless.

We just had a Jack and Jill baby shower with over 30 people. The food was fantastic, the pulled pork was amazing, the service was top notch. I highly recommend this company. The entire menu was totally fantastic.

I get to work with many different caterers through Black Tie Affair Hospitality Personnel, and especially enjoy working with Platters Catering & Events. Their organization skills are superior from the time of booking, to the very end of your event. They are consistent and dependable. Their food options will meet and exceed your Guest's expectations and they handle dietary restrictions with ease. Kevin's expertise can be drawn upon for every aspect of your event. I highly recommend Platters Catering.

Platters catered the Christmas lunch for our staff and the food was great. The soup, salad and entrees were delicious and the servings were generous. The deserts disappeared quickly with our coffee. We enjoyed the meal and will definitely recommend Platters to one and all.

Platters Catering was amazing! Where do I start? Allison and Kevin are professional, more than accommodating and always quick to respond when needed. Our wedding guests absolutely loved the food - especially our late night duck poutine station :) The staff took care of all the setup, teardown and any special requests in between! Servers and bartenders were so friendly and efficient. If you're looking for a caterer for any event - but especially a wedding - look no further. Platters offers countless food options and are open to accommodating whatever fits your budget and vision. All around, amazing experience!! Thanks again, Stephanie

The customer service was excellent. Very professional and very helpful. The food was amazing. We celebrated my grandson's high school graduation with a small dinner party. The gluten-free, vegetarian tart was the best food of it's type that I have ever tasted. Thank-you for helping to make our event so memorable for Ashton. C. Demcie

Exceptional quality...I was so happy with Platters catering!! I requested some vegan wraps/sandwiches to be included in the luncheon and they were absolutely delicious! The food was so fresh and the portions were generous. Everything looked so appetizing too. Highly recommend!!

We held our wedding at Piper Hill Farm in Puslinch a couple weeks ago and Platters catered for our wedding of just under 100 guests. Words can not express how happy we were to have their friendly and talented team take care of our food and decorative needs on our very special day. They transformed a historic barn into the most magical setting one could ask for - beautiful chandelier lighting sprinkled with string lights and a beautiful backdrop to set the stage for our head table. Our guests are still raving about the food...especially the Sweet Potato Pave Stack! Many have even said it was the best "wedding food" they have ever had. Allison and Kevin were such a pleasure to work with throughout the planning process and their staff on the day-of were extremely helpful and friendly. If we were to do this all over again, we would chose Platters in a heart beat. Thank you for making our wedding day so memorable ♥

We cannot say enough about Platters! In true COVID-19 fashion we ended up being in quite a pinch for food at our wedding. With the wedding only being a week away, Platters kindly agreed to cater our event. We appreciated their responsiveness and flexibility to fit us in! Also, the food - TO DIE FOR! We have received so many compliments regarding the quality and flavour of the food served at our wedding. If you need a wedding catered Platters should be your go to! We can't wait to have their food again at my brother's wedding!

Platter's catering is by far the best! My family and I have used them on many occasions including my wedding! Everyone at my wedding was complimenting them on how good the food was and their organization. Platters helped me with my tent rental to almost every detail! I would definitely recommend them to anyone and I am excited to use them again for all of my future occasions!

I just attended the grand opening of DeRMA Skin Institute in Guelph, as a guest and was so impressed by the outstanding catering done by Platters Catering and Events. The food was abundant, beautifully presented, and included something delicious for every individual preference. The colors, the exquisite flavors, the quality...I was like a kid in a candy store! Congratulations on a job well done!

Jessica Liu

I've only arranged for catering once or twice in my lifetime and Platters has made the whole process super easy and efficient! They were able to cater our staff holiday party and the customer service along with the fast responses from John made this experience very memorable. The food was delicious and the attentiveness to a celiac in the party was very much appreciated. John was very clear about the expectations, delivery times and what we would be given and again, was very helpful throughout the whole process. Thanks again for the amazing dinner!

Tanya Matthews, Marketing Department

I contacted Platters Catering for a quick turnaround for a memorial service. Alison was a pleasure to deal with. She contacted me in a timely fashion and kept communications flowing. She was able to facilitate our needs for the memorial within days. Very professional.

We had a private five-course meal catered by Platters and we couldn't have been more pleased! There were four of us and we each had different dietary restrictions and they went above and beyond to ensure we had an amazing gastronomic experience. From the welcoming glass of champagne to the flourless chocolate cake paired with port we had a very memorable evening. I highly recommend them for your next large or small gathering!

Jennifer Porritt

Lovely food and excellent, responsive service. Thank you!

Platters' service for our wedding was phenomenal. All staff we dealt with were helpful, cheery & professional. They did an amazing job & would definitely recommend them and would hire them again in the future.

WOW! Stellar, beyond question best cater I have ever worked with. We need 125 competitive swimmers fed over a period of time. They not only provided the best service but their food was hot amazing and high quality. I can't say enough about their team and customer service. So happy we used them and happier their in Guelph. I highly recommend them to any small or large group that expects excellent service and quality. Well Done Platters ......no question I will use you again.!

Sara Busse

We hired Platters to cater our backyard wedding and we are so glad we did! They are an outstanding team and truly dedicated to giving great service and delicious food. They set up all our tables and were there to clean up after. Our guests are still raving about how good the meal was. Thank you for making our special day even more wonderful!

Dawid Robczuk

We ordered an appetizer menu for our daughter's first communion and it was marvelous! The caterer showed up on time and set everything for us on tables. The display of the food has impressed our guests and it was delicious! The quality and the detail that went into setting the food dishes was amazing. No complaints. Super friendly staff and professional and responsive communication with the company's organizers.

Platters catered our wedding, and I didn't have to worry about a single thing food or drink related. They somehow kept everything cleared and tidy while remaining in the background, and went above and beyond to find the perfect mix for some dietary issues we had for a buffet. Highly recommend!

Alex McMahon

Platters is outstanding . The presentation, quality of food , menus and employees are top notch. Platters is the only call you should make when looking for catering.

Charles Noble

I was at an event that had Platters catering, I have celiac disease (so I can't have gluten at all) and I can't even handle cross-contamination. Two waitresses told me that certain items were gluten free and brought me my own plate that wasn't contaminated, turns out they were very wrong and I had a VERY difficult night. I could barely stand and I kept throwing up. So, I personally wouldn't recommend but just make sure you know what is in the food you're getting.

Beautiful venue for weddings etc, can't wait for new years eve !
