Serendipity Catering

I hired Serendipity Catering for a surprise anniversary dinner. They did a fantastic job. I was concerned that they would not be interested in doing such a small event, but they great to work with. The planner offered terrific suggestions and the food was spectacular!

Serendipity catered our small event at a rented lodge in Estes Park and they blew it out of the ~park~. Bad puns aside, they were great to work with and had some really inventive recipes. I still dream about our tomato and goat cheese terrine.it was amazing! Izabela helped us get the menu coordinated and stay within our budget. Would recommend!

Serendipity catered our wedding reception at the Denver Botanic Gardens and it was an unparalleled experience from Day 1 planning. From the initial menu creation, to the tasting dinner, to the last minute adjustments, the team was responsive to all of our requests and nailed every small detail the day of. All of our guests could not stop complimenting the staff and the amazing food: "that was some of the best food we've ever had at a wedding", "the bartenders at your wedding were so hilariously entertaining".

Huge shoutout to Russell who was the team lead for the event who effectively led guests through cocktail hour/dinner service, seamlessly transitioned everyone to the reception area in a 2nd nearby location, and facilitated cake/dessert service throughout the night. It was an unforgettable night for all and Serendipity Catering was a huge part of it. We cannot thank you guys enough and HIGHLY RECOMMEND this crew if you are considering them for your event!

Yelp doesn't allow me to just revise my previous review, unfortunately. It was long and detailed about all the many things that went wrong with our wedding because of Serendipity breaking all manner of contracted duties. The short version is that desserts were not any that were agreed-to; food was inconsistent and some were in complete violation of my dietary needs, which were agreed to and sampled prior; they sent completely inexperienced people (the one man was obviously petrified of serving food, he was shaking!); didn't provide ice as agreed; but most importantly, left over an hour early with no provocation whatsoever from us.

We were otherwise occupied when they decided to leave without cleaning up and guests were still eating! The agreement was clearly that they would stay until 6pm and clean up (the host homeowner was leaving the next day for a week, and I was told that it is standard for the caterer to clean up, mop the floors, etc. This was NOT done). The event manager, Madison, literally waved at us while we were singing for the guests and left!

When I texted the event manager, she didn't respond. When I texted the owner, she didn't send them back. In fact, she made up a story that Madison had asked the homeowner if they could leave! No, she TOLD the homeowner. Plus, my husband and I were the clients, not the homeowner, which they all knew. Eventually, she directed me to the Finance Manager, Dan.

There was going to be a small refund originally, but out of the blue a week later, he emailed me and graciously refunded us for the event and initiated a 3 way call where the owner and her husband apologized to us. If I was reviewing him, he would get 5 stars. Unfortunately, this was our wedding, and we are in our late 60s. No one should have to clean up after their own wedding when they've hired a professional caterer.

We had to ask guests and the homeowner to help. I want to emphasize that we were exceedingly patient with them due to the pandemic, but my supposition is that they over-booked that day for the number of employees they have, and we got the short end of the stick. This is revised from the original 1 star review because they refunded us.

Serendipity did a beautiful job catering and coordinating our wedding on 9/25/21. We loved that we got catering, florals, and day of coordination all in one spot- it made it so much easier and took away the stress. Jillian (catering captain), Isabelle (coordinator), Sarah (florals), and Amory (sales) were so wonderful and easy to work with. Our wedding was a dream and everything we wanted. THANK YOU!

We had the most amazing cake from them! It was half chocolate with raspberries and half lemon with curd. Kelley also did an amazing job designing it! It had a drum set with Animal playing behind it, barrels with little shot glasses on them, and all of it set a top a mountain scene. If you want a special, out of this world cake, check them out!

Serendipity is amazing. They were my one-stop-shop, did my food, cake, and flowers! Hands down the best people I have ever worked with. The best customer service I have ever received, I have so much to say. They literally saved my wedding day. They were the only caterers that sent me a pre-planned menu with a quote after one email verse going into a million questions.

It made me stress-free and convenient because I moved to another state. Flew to Colorado and did the tasting while under COVID guidelines. They set up a beautiful table and made it a beautiful experience. The food of course was amazing. We had the Colorado peach chicken, flank steak, and stuffed portabello mushroom. I wish I could have eaten all of them at the wedding.

On the day of the wedding, the food was delicious and the staff was professional! I heard good things about the food, a couple of people did tell me they had to send the chicken back to cook a little longer, my chicken was perfect. They even boxed up extra food for us to eat later. Our cake was amazing and gorgeous. Everything tasted amazing although I didn't want to cut into my cake because it was stunning.

We had hazelnut chocolate and vanilla almond soak. The floral arrangement was absolutely perfect, it was breathtaking. I still cannot believe how perfect your team made my day and help all the way up to the wedding. Amory was my coordinator and was always quick to respond. Super nice and fun to talk to. Raven was my catering captain or should I say, queen!

She made everything look so easy and was super organized at all times. After COVID my venue canceled on me 7 weeks to the wedding and these two girls went the extra mile and sent me a list of venues that they worked with in the past, and I ended up picking one of them. Laura the owner was and is very pleasant. Helped me with my cake tasting and sent us cupcakes (dry iced) to texas. That was a fun experience. THANK YOU

Amazing! Serendipity was so perfect for for my friends 30th birthday dinner! We went with the family style dinner and was extremely impressed! The process was super easy, we ended up picking up the food ourselves to save on the delivery fee and the instructions to reheat were so simple! Portions were generous, there was plenty for left overs! Food itself was phenomenal, sides were so delicious! We will def. be ordering from them again, highly recommend!

I can't praise Serendipity Catering enough. They are a preferred caterer at the venue I manage and time after time deliver an outstanding experience to our guests. They work hard and provide stellar outcomes!

I used this company several time, and sadly they were very inconsistent. To the point that we would have them cater breakfast and then lunch in the same day and people thought it was a different cater for lunch. They were late and would forget items. I would call and as ask for refund for missing platters and tell them that the food was not up to par that day and I would just get a simple "oh sorry". They are expensive and I expected better customer service.

Serendipity catered our company party and did a wonderful job! They crafted a delicious menu based on our budget and were simply lovely to work with. Jillian, Dimitri, and everyone else involved were friendly, patient, and efficient. Plus, every bite of food at the event was totally worth the calories!

Really enjoyed the experience Serendipity provided for a catered event at my house. Sarah was super helpful and diligent in responding to all of my questions through the process. They came when they said and were professional from start to finish. To top it off the food was awesome and I received many compliments from my guests on how great everything tasted. Thank you Sarah! Thank you Serendipity.

Catered for Sunday brunch at Cherokee Castle. Food was horrendous. We paid for a buffet brunch, there was minimal food, and I was only 'allowed' ONE piece of bacon. The breakfast sandwiches were soggy, as the tiny finger sandwiches. Serving staff were rude and wouldn't allow us to take 'extra' food.

Mystery chicken surprise, the service was as terrible as a broken spoon to eat off of. The kitchen staff is inexperienced, and clearly does not understand the temperature danger zone as last year half the staff got sick after consuming the food the catering company was serving up. Better off calling a kitchen truck to cook it all fresh on the spot.

Serendipity catered my wedding last weekend and I couldn't be happier. We went with a heavy appetizer theme and it was a great choice. They made sure we had plenty of food and plenty of filling foods to ensure our guests were satisfied. The staff was so friendly and attentive and the food was delicious. They did everything right. I HIGHLY recommend them.

We are thrilled with Serendipity Catering and highly recommend their services! They provided appetizers, a buffet, and desserts for our wedding this past September. From day one the service was outstanding. They were very flexible and extremely responsive (over email and phone) and accommodated every one of our custom requests. During our two walk-thru meetings they were super helpful and offered a lot of tips around the timeline and set-up.

On the day of the wedding their servers went above and beyond for our guests and we got a lot of compliments about the staff. The food was AMAZING and we continue to hear about it from our guests. Every item on the buffet was delicious, especially the chicken and beef dishes, which so often get dried out and bland in such a quantity. It felt more like the meals were prepared for a small dinner, not 150 people!

They prepared a large variety of vegetables for our vegan and vegetarian guests, and their quinoa stuffed peppers were highly praised. I'm just sad I didn't get a chance to try everything! During our cocktail hour I tried one of the reuben finger sandwiches (my husband's special request) and it was unbelievably good. The beef in marsala sauce was sublime! Serendipity has an amazing pastry chef who made an assortment of two bite desserts (mini tartes) and I was blown away by how perfect (and beautiful) they were. A+++++++++++++! Thanks so much to Jennifer, Kelly, Adriana and the amazing team of servers! You all contributed to the best day of our lives!

We used Serendipity to cater our wedding reception and I don't think we could have asked for a better company to work with. Laura and Kelly were both outstanding from our initial contact, to planning our menu and helping my vision come alive. Not only did they set up the brunch for our guests, but they also coordinated set up for our ceremony, flipping the room for our reception and took on the challenge of designing a donut cake for me.

Every detail was looked after and our guests loved the food. I felt supported throughout the entire time leading up to the wedding and during. Just a pleasure to work with and they made our day even more special!

I've enjoyed Serendipity's food at several catered events I've been to and it's always delicious. The interaction I've had with the staff has always been cheerful and helpful. Good company!

Love love love Serendipity. The food was amazing but more importantly the help we received from the staff was out of this world! They catered our wedding for 150 people and so many of our guests told me for weeks afterwards how great the caterers were. One friend even admitted to standing by the door the caterers were coming out of so he could get the first bite off their trays of passed apps. I recommend the lamb lollipops as the best app out there!
