Delicious catering and professional service

Robin was a pleasure to work with. He understood our vision clearly and was able to add his own flare to make it even better.

He used all locally sourced & mainly organic ingredients with garnishes from his own garden.

Our pre-event tasting was personal and fully customized. Robin was very open to all feedback on our taste preferences.

He was very understanding about the covid rule challenges and ever changing numbers. He never held it against us, and always looked out for our best interest. His pricing for food and staff is accurate and honest.

His staff were professional, clean and timely.

Everyone loved their meal and we hope to hire him again for future events.

Amazing experience with Robin Howe

We had the best experience working with Robin Howe & his team. All of our guests were absolutely raving about their meals. We had the opportunity to try the food beforehand, and Robin's tasting went above and beyond what we could have expected. All of his staff were courteous, and helpful on the day-of. I would highly recommend booking with them!

Beautiful, seasonal menu at our Grand Victorian wedding.

Chef Robin is a great person and was a fantastic caterer for our wedding in Niagara-on-the-Lake! He was extremely helpful to us from start to finish, and he always had great food suggestions to help us plan our event according to our 'vision'. We also appreciated that he was very accommodating after we had to revamp the menu several times to meet guests' changing dietary requests. Furthermore, we loved how he used seasonal and local ingredients in many of our dishes. Chef Robin has a lot of experience and a great catering team, and on the day the wine and food service was top notch - warm and friendly, but also meticulous and on schedule. In the end, many guests told us Robin's food was some of the best they ever had at a wedding, and we couldn't have asked for more. We were blown away by how good everything tasted! Thanks for an unforgettable meal!

Absolutely excellent caterer

I cannot recommend Robin highly enough. He catered both of our daughters' weddings, one a dinner 5 years ago, and one a luncheon this past weekend, and his food and service is absolutely outstanding. He is accommodating, reliable, fairly priced, professional, and completely enjoyable to work with. His serving staff is friendly and extremely competent. We had high expectations, and Robin's food and service even surpassed them. I almost wish we had another wedding to plan so that we could work with Robin again!

Robin catered our wedding this past December and we could not have been more pleased. Throughout the planning process Robin was so helpful and professional. We decided on having a cocktail reception with food stations and Robin and his team made the evening run so smoothly. Our guests raved about the food. Thank you so much Robin for the high quality of food and service you provided!

Robin Howe was very professional, and very well organized. Not only did he make delicious food, he also helped to take care of dinner and tent rentals which was a big help for us. The food was beautiful and delicious. I would definitely recommend.
