“The Crane & Pelican Cafe was an exceptional choice for catering. From the very first interaction, Mandy and her team were quick to respond, set clear expectations, and ensured we felt supported throughout the entire planning process. Their catering service was incredible - the food was delicious and beautifully presented, and the service was impeccable on the day of our wedding. We received so many compliments from our guests on the incredible dining experience. Mandy and her staff went above and beyond to make our special day truly memorable. We highly recommend The Crane & Pelican Cafe to any couple looking for an stress-free, top-notch wedding catering.”
