Hoffman House Catering was a fantastic choice for our wedding catering. Their communication throughout the entire planning process was very good - they were responsive, organized, and helpful in ensuring all the details were taken care of. The quality of their work and overall value was also very good. They did an excellent job setting up and tearing down the food stations, and were on top of keeping the food replenished throughout the night.

From the moment I contacted them Craig & his team answered every and all questions quickly and put me at ease every step of the way. The day of the wedding they were nothing short of professional! All the food was made on time and it was DELICIOUS! All 160ish of our guests had nothing but great things to say about the food. In fact, it was talked about for the rest of the night! They all kept saying it was the best food they've had at a wedding ever. If you're looking for something fun and unique for any of your events I could not recommend Billy Bricks on Wheels enough!
