The overall experience was okay, they did what a caterer is supposed to do. The booking experience was difficult and we felt very rushed and confused. The food was okay, it could have been our personal selcetions. However, we did not come away saying the food was amazing! The pricing was a bit expensive for what we received. The servers were very unfriendly and guests came away feeling uncomfortable and confused.
As stated, they did what we asked them to do but just wished it would have turned out better for us and our guests. One bonus was the signature drink I picked from the bar service was amazing but in the end it was costly.

Great food, very delicious turkey and mashed potatoes. Asparagus was phenomenal. Overall price was a bit expensive relative to other local choices. Very friendly servers at the event though and efficient set-up/take-down. They even carried the brides plate of food to the table for her!

This Little Piggy had a wide range of GF & vegan options alongside their main courses. They have a menu with an estimation calculator online which is convenient & rare. I also loved the convenience of their taste test day, where you can literally try everything on their menu! Everyone loved the baked beans, cheesy potatoes, and pulled pork sandwiches. They did an excellent job getting everyone through the buffet line and were a perfect caterer for a barn wedding.

This Little Piggy was great to work with for our wedding and so fun! They were very responsive and helpful in picking the best dishes for our venue and guests. We did a full pig roast and guests really enjoyed that experience. We also received a ton of compliments on how delicious the food was. The mac and cheese was hands down the guest favorite - so good!

I recently photographed an event at Hope Glen Farm and had the opportunity to try This Little Piggy's amazing meals. I am not much of a BBQ fan, but I loved everything! The pork was so moist and the sauces were fabulous. You will not be disappointed!

One of the first things we would hear from our wedding guests was how incredible the food was! As frequent wedding guests ourselves, we know that one of the most important parts is a good meal and boy did TLP deliver! The hog roast and mac-n-cheese were exactly what we hoped. Such a delightful departure from the same old boring wedding food you can get anywhere else. Thanks for making our day easy and tasty TLP.
