Good food, but their catering business features hidden fees…read more I was planning on having culinary conspiracy cater my wedding. When we met with the chef initially, we were impressed. He seemed genuinely excited to create a custom menu that would cater to our needs. They sent us an estimate for the cost. One of the things we asked for was that we be able to provide our own alcohol, and they said that this was fine, we would just have to pay for the bartender's wages. The bartender's wages were included in the quote, and there was no alcohol included, so we were sure that they understood what we wanted. So we signed up for a tasting, which we had to pay for, since we hadn't signed a contract yet. This was fine. We got to the tasting, and the food was delicious. After requesting a few minor changes to our quote, we were ready to sign a contract. So they sent us a contract, and all of a sudden, they told us that if we wanted to bring our own alcohol, we would have to pay a corkage fee: $10 per bottle of wine, $15 per bottle of spirit, and $12.50 per case of beer, pop, water (!), or juice. This would completely negate the savings that we would get from bringing our own alcohol. There was no need for this, as we were already paying for the bartender and the rentals, and they kept this fee hidden from us until we were about to sign. So we asked them to waive the corkage fees, or, if they couldn't do that, to remove the bartender from the quote, as we could always find our own bartender. All of a sudden they weren't interested in working for us anymore. Fortunately, they returned the money we had paid for the tasting, so at least they only wasted our time, and not our money! Don't trust that their quotes are accurate, they will try to add more fees.

The baked good prepared in house is so good. I really enjoyed my muffin as a quick breakfast. Unfortunately if you want a grilled sandwich or anything that need more preparation, it might not be a good idea if you are in a rush. Our Local Artisan Grilled Cheese ($9) Three Cheese (Black River Cheddar, Jack & Havarti) with Bacon took more than 20 minute to be ready and the cafe was not even too busy. The sandwich though was good, but on the pricey side. If you want some peace and quiet, there is a separate seating area upstairs.

Best BBQ on the planet…read more I've been to a lot of barbecue joints in the US but I haven't had anything that's as good as the barbecue here. I did the takeout and chose beef brisket and a pulled pork sandwich and they were amazing. I like that they pay attention to every detail. Everything is top notch from the buns they use on the sandwich to the salads, coleslaws and fresh cut fries. No sloppy sides here. I hear the onion rings are to die for. Another thing I liked about this place is everything isn't drowning in barbecue sauce. It's so hard to get pulled pork that isn't swimming in sauce. They just put a little bit on the bun which was perfect. You actually got to taste the meat and as you'd expect, the sauce itself was ridiculously good.

I've attended 2 functions that were catered by Tulips and Maple so I am strictly commenting on the…read morefood and the service I received as a guest. The events were a birthday party at their old location (on Merivale near Slack) and a work-related luncheon at their new location in the Nepean Sportsplex. The food was good at both events, but very different, which shows the range that Tulips and Maple can accommodate. At the birthday party, the food was mostly appetizers and hors d'oeuvres. They were beautifully presented and the food was very creative/innovative. At the work function, the food was buffet style and more benign in flavour. Obviously I am not faulting the company for this as firstly it was the organizers who selected the menu and secondly when feeding a large group of people with varying tastes, levels of "adventurous-ness," dietary restrictions, etc. it's safer to be less creative and more mainstream. I was very impressed how their regular buffet was able to accommodate most dietary restrictions in the group (celiac, various allergies and intolerances, etc.) and they were able to provide separate meals for the remaining restrictions (vegan, vegetarian, no red meat, and Halal) - I believe a vegan meal covered the rest of the restrictions. Service was very professional and courteous. Apparently, the have cafes in the Ingenium Museums, called Maple Cafe, and they also have a branch in Kingston, ON. I think it's nice to have a resident caterer at the Nepean Sportsplex, so if you have an event there, they are already on site. Looking at their website, prices range from reasonable to a bit on the pricey side, so I think they can accommodate a variety of budgets, tastes, etc. I neither live the kind of life nor work the kind of job where I am regularly requiring the services of a caterer, but I would definitely consider Tulips and Maple should I ever be in need of a caterer. And the great thing about them being at the Nepean Sportsplex is that there's lots of free parking ;)
