I can’t recommend Far Out Catering & Events highly enough! Carla and her wonderful team helped me organize a beautiful baby shower for my daughter-in-law. They not only provided a fantastic luncheon buffet, but they also created a stunning layout, handled the vendors, and their flower team made adorable centerpieces for the tables. I rented the mimosa cart from them, and it was a highlight of my event! If you are looking for a company that will take care of everything so you can enjoy the event, contact them!

Board and Bloom LLC 

5.0

  • Starts at $240
  • Serves San Mateo, CA

Board and Bloom provides a luxury, unlimited charcuterie experience that is a favorite for wedding cocktail hours and late-night snacks. Unlike traditional grazing tables, we offer an interactive service where each guest receives their own fully customizable board built right before their eyes. As the host, you have total control over the menu, choosing exactly what we serve to reflect your taste. We are committed to inclusivity and can easily accommodate vegetarian, gluten-free, and other dietary restrictions on-site, ensuring every guest enjoys a premium, personalized treat.

I recently experienced Board & Bloom at a dinner party and was deeply impressed. The owner-operator Angela graciously walked us through each unique flavor (the deep orange mimolette cheese is my new favorite) and paired a mouthwatering 2018 cab sauv. I highly recommend this local business and plan on having them cater an upcoming yoga retreat.

Catering the SF Bay Area since 2011 - we are an extension of your hospitality and believe in meaningful events with delicious food and reliable service. Our team is composed of industry professionals who are committed to the success of your event.

I hired MidSummer Kitchen to cater my wedding and it was absolutely fantastic! The food was phenomenal, everyone kept coming over to me during the reception to tell me how much they loved the food. Communication was so easy - quick responses, easy to understand, and always professional. The Midsummer catering crew during my wedding were also very professional and kind. Leading up to the wedding, I worked a lot with Cleodia. She was very kind, professional, and understanding whenever I had question or had to make changes to the plan. 2 months before my wedding, I had a problem with my venue and Cleodia was a great help. She helped me remain calm during my panic, helped me find possible new venues, and worked with me to create a quick solution to a major problem. I honestly don't think I would have found a new venue without Cleodia's help and I am very grateful. I would 100% recommend MidSummer Kitchen for all your catering needs. If I could rate higher than 5 stars, I would.
