Luongo Barbecue 

5.0

  • Starts at $500
  • Serves State College, PA

Preparing and serving slow smoked, expertly prepared barbecue is the greatest joy in my life. There are no short cuts in barbecue and that's what I love about it. We started Luongo Barbecue to glorify the Lord and grow the Kingdom of God. We use the business as a means to feed and serve the less fortunate in our community. After spending the last 30 years in Texas, 20 of those learning all things barbecue, we are relocating to central Pennsylvania in January 2025 to begin working with family on the next chapter of Luongo Barbecue.

I used Luongo BBQ to cater lunch at an event I was planning in the FT Worth area. The food and service exceeded my expectations in everyway. Chuck was easy to work with in the planning and easily accomodated when I needed to increase my numbers. They showed up on time, delivered fabulous food and cleaned up the space excellently. I highly recommend using them...and order the peach cobbler. Trust me.

Hausfrau Catering 

5.0

  • Starts at $1,000
  • Serves State College, PA

Hausfrau is an upscale catering and events company putting the JOY back into hosting and wedding planning. Let us take care of all the details. We love themes ~and FOOD~ not just German! We can develop the perfect menu, layout, decor, and more to create a unique experience for your guests at your price point. Our team takes the time to hear your ideas, envision your perfect event with you, implement our shared plan, and ensure everyone enjoys our hospitality from start to finish. Our focus on aesthetics means we plate and garnish food on white china platters and wood instead of just dropping off disposable aluminum pans for you to figure out!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Hausfrau Catering for my 80th birthday celebration, and I couldn't be more thrilled with the experience! As an Austrian-born immigrant, it was essential for me to reflect my heritage in the event, and Hausfrau delivered beyond my expectations. From the moment I contacted Kristin Sanders, I knew I was in good hands. This was my first experience hiring a caterer, and Kristin was nothing short of amazing. She assisted me in planning the menu and remained incredibly accommodating as my guest list grew from 35 to 65. Throughout the planning process, she was mindful of my budget, while ensuring that everything was just right. The staff arrived on time and set up beautifully, donning stunning Austrian Dirndl dresses that added a special touch to the event. The food was absolutely perfect! We had a delightful array of German and Austrian dishes, complemented by some American favorites. The hors d'oeuvres, pretzel bar, buffet with three main dishes, and dessert received rave reviews from my guests, who are still talking about the meal and the event! The website portal was user-friendly and reflected the professionalism I experienced throughout the planning process. Hausfrau Catering will be my go-to reference for any future occasions. Thank you, Kristin and the entire Hausfrau team, for making my birthday celebration truly unforgettable!

Tasteful Affairs Catering 

5.0

  • Starts at $1
  • Serves State College, PA

I am second generation catering company. Everything I know I learned working side by side with my father day in and out. I hope to do the same with my children one day. I truly love my job, on wedding days you can find me sobbing in the back as the happy couple says "I do". It is truly rewarding to be able to watch my clients commit to one another on a daily basis. That being said I know how stressful wedding planning can be and I strive to take away as much of that stress as possible.

From the very first conversation Jannelle had proven to be an active listeners who provided positive feedback to ensure our vision was brought to life. Her communication was prompt, and she went above and beyond to make our special day even more memorable. The food they served was fresh, delicious, our guests are still raving about the amazing appetizers and entrees. We are so grateful for her exceptional service and for helping to make our wedding day perfect in every way.

We were able to coordinate with Upohar when we lived in Türkiye for a wedding in Lancaster, and everything was fabulous! Incredible customer service, food, and site presence. Being teachers and trying to stay on a budget, we did find it slightly out of our price range- That being said, we would 100% book them again. The koshari was the best! Thanks everyone!
