In these crazy times, it's really nice to such a quality, beautifully prepare and packaged meal. The lobster is SO fresh and they even include shell crackers.

We hired Blue Rocks Catering for our wedding, and it was hands down one of the best decisions we…read moremade. Our planner recommended them, and after comparing menus from other vendors, Blue Rocks stood out with their creative options and emphasis on fresh, local ingredients. We booked a tasting with our chosen dishes and were blown away--the food was better than restaurant quality, and our only hope was that they could replicate it on the big day. They absolutely delivered! The hand-passed appetizers on the Fort Adams lawn were a huge hit--especially the bacon-wrapped dates, scallops, and mini hot lobster rolls. Dinner was equally amazing, and impressively served hot and fresh despite the challenges of an outdoor venue. Our planner, who has attended countless tastings, even commented that it was some of the best catering she had ever experienced. Highly recommend Blue Rocks to cater your wedding or event, Katie was awesome, making everything easy and taking control over any and all requests, big or small! Thank you so much!

This is a little late, and I apologize. Our wedding was 11/22/25, and I cannot say enough about the…read morequality of the food. Our guests are still raving about it. I will certainly continue to recommend them to everyone who is looking for a caterer. That said, this was a second wedding (both of us in our 70's) and most of the planning fell upon us. We hired their coordinator for the day of and once we dropped off our centerpieces, etc., for the reception, I was free to spend the rest of the day getting ready, relaxing. I didn't have to worry about a thing at the wedding. Noelle was terific. Everything was just as we had pictured it at the ceremony and reception. It was perfect. I hope I can work with her again as we plan a few family events in the future

If you're looking for pre-made meals you and heat and eat, AND you want the most delicious home cooked meal you've ever had, this place is it! They have a weekly menu, it's super easy to order over the phone or via email, and they do curbside pickup. The ladies at this small business are the nicest you'll ever meet. They make and package your food with love - I literally felt like I was eating home cooked meals from my mom. You know how takeout can leave you feeling not so great? Like a little sick b/c of the grease and salt? This place has none of those problems. Literally the best of homemade meals and take out. Each meal is packaged individually for easy reheating and the portions are also HUGE. So far I've had their chicken Florentine, Salisbury steak, meat loaf, shrimp scampi - and all were 100/10. So freaking good. They also do catering, so post-COVID, seriously consider them for your catering needs. I can't imagine a better, more delicious small business to support.

We truly cannot speak highly enough of Smoke & Pickles!…read more Our guests are still talking about "the best wedding food they've ever had" 3 months later, and we can't argue with them. Beyond creating an incredibly bespoke and personal menu for us (with plenty of GF and veggie options!) Sally was instrumental to the process. She helped us book all of our rentals (tent, flatware, plates, tables, etc) and she was always there for advice and to offer suggestions based on her experience. She met with us at PEAK to pick out our tableware, she gave us great suggestions for anything else we needed to rent, coordinated all the setup both on Friday and our actual wedding day, and was so prompt in her replies via email or phone. We could not have pulled it off without her expertise! We would have ended up spending a lot more money overall if we didn't have her guidance. And of course the food was amazing. I loved the fact that it was all local and in-season! Sustainability was very important when picking our vendors, so I appreciated the attention to detail, the composting, and support of local farmers and growers. Plus we got to take home the leftovers! Win/win/win. Lastly, the whole team truly cares about the process. They don't just throw food in pans on the table, but craft such gorgeous tablescapes that look like they fit in perfectly with the rest of the event. Handmade pottery, flowers, cutting boards...its beautiful to look at, AND to eat! If you need a caterer to deliver the BEST food and support your wedding or event - Smoke and Pickles is your team.

Oh, and the food. People are still talking about it ( "those lobster rolls! "That beef!" "Those FISH!") The menu was simple, fresh, and spectacular. And the service was impeccable.

In Sally we not only met a caterer but we made a friend.
