There is simply no catering, event, party food service better. Not just in Pensacola - anywhere!! From a 250 person to a 25 person dinner, David and his team are the best. Curated fine dining on scale. Coupled with incredible service and an attention to detail you would expect at a Michelin starred restaurant. I have been fortunate enough to travel and enjoy some of the best food and services anywhere. The Classic City Crew and First Class Bar look up to nobody! Best of the best!! read more

You can stop your wedding caterer search right here! We worked with Classic City catering for our February 2022 wedding and right from the start they were absolutely incredible! My husband and I planned our entire wedding and one of the most important things to us was that our wedding day, every detail, represented the two of us & was equally enjoyable to every single guest or vendor who was a special part of our day. For this reason, Classic City could not have been a more perfect choice. We had the misfortune of a few other vendors in the area that were not very kind or did not show any interest in us or our day, but once we got a hold of Classic City, that all changed. We set up a tasting with them at the start of our planning process and despite them suffering a power outage earlier that day, they STILL accommodated us for our tasting and it was 10/10! The tasting itself gave us the opportunity to get a feel for not only their food and options, but for their service and role as a wedding caterer. My husband and I sat with the owner at a well set table and tried each dish brought out, while David explained each food item, the options we had, asked us questions about our idea of our perfect day, and more! Just from this tasting we knew that we would be well taken care of and listened to! The Classic City Catering team went above and beyond to answer all questions and accommodate any questions or last minute needs. The service within this team is top notch and food (if you can believe it) is even better! Our meal selection ranged from a taco bar to flatbread pizzas, mini grilled cheeses and crab cakes, and mini cookies baked on site with milk shooters! Every detail of their set up, service, and quality was better than we expected. Further, during our wedding day, the Classic City catering staff made sure that my husband and I were a priority, they were always bringing us our wedding drink selections and making sure they we were having the chance to try the food! They even finished off the evening with making us a couple's package packed with food containers, dessert, champagne, & utensils so that we could enjoy our food alone when the night was over! I think my words could never do this team justice in expressing the importance of their role on our wedding day & how appreciative we are to them! My husband & I agree that we would choose them all over again given the choice. Thank you Classic City Catering! read more

David was suggested to me by Kay Lee Events to do our daughters wedding of about 45 people at a house on Pensacola beach. We had the sugared almond salad - amazing. The pecan smoked beef tenderloin medallions was fall apart tender. The Grilled lemon tarragon Chicken was flavorful and we loved it as left overs even better. Basically everything was wonderful. The set up and presentation needed no additional decoration. We provided the liquor, but the bar was much more extravagant setup than I expected. Just wonderful. David Penniman is great. I opened my fridge and all leftovers were stacked, covered and labeled. The top layer of the cake was boxed, wrapped and even had a bit of her bouquet on top. I'm very pleased. Would hire him again in a minute. read more

My daughter had a wedding at at a house on Pensacola Beach June 20,14 David, Classic City catering was the cater. His mission statement full service detail oriented catering company is very much true. We went with David bc of his food presentation and flavor he didn't disappoint. In fact he made fish taco's unbelievable with fresh fish along with the other foods we chose. We found David very professional (also his staff) easy to work with and unbelievablly talented. In fact we had friends that had just attended a wedding at another resort in the area an they couldn't believe how much better this event was in food taste and presentation. I was very concerned when my daughter wanted to have a wedding at a house on the beach but David made it a most upscale, very upscale event. We also had David furnish the liquor and again he didn't over charge as some stories you hear about caters running up the bar bill. Thanks David for making my daughters day perfect. ga read more
