Great food, great service!

Tina and the team at Dutchman's were amazing to work with from Day 1! Their menu selection was exactly what we were looking for and their pricing really couldn't be beat! The food on our wedding day looked and tasted amazing and everyone is still raving not only about the taste, but also about the amazing service from the catering staff. Highly, highly recommend this amazing team of professionals!

Simply the best!

Dutchman's catered my wedding this month and I couldn't be happier with the result- I highly recommend them! The presentation, variety, taste, serving staff, it was all done perfectly, they really outdid themselves. I've had a ton of our guests raving about how good the catering was and many of them have said they'd like to use Dutchman's for events in the future. Not only that but from the moment I reached out to ask about catering, their professionalism and passion for what they do shone through. Communicating with their team during the wedding planning process was easy and they were able to accommodate dietary restrictions so there was something to eat for everyone.

Thank you Dutchman's Caterers for playing a big part in creating our perfect wedding day!

Cheers,
Mira and Sarah

Amazing quality and friendly staff

I took a chance on Dutchman caterers as none of my friends had used this company before, so I decided to go solely off of reviews. Well I am so glad that I ended up doing this because this company exceeded my expectations. The food was absolutely delicious, and some of my friends told me that it was the best food they have ever had at a wedding. On top of that the staff were incredibly hospitable, friendly and cleaned up quickly once everyone was done dinner. To top it off, Tina was an absolute professional to work with and everything from the beginning went smoothly. I would highly recommend this company for any catering event.

We would absolutely recommend Dutchman's Caterers for a wedding or any celebration. Tina Gold was our first contact and was so easy and professional to work with. The food was excellent and service outstanding. Finn & Michelle - Wedding at the Fort Langley Community Hall on July 15, 2017.

Dutchman's was really impressive.

First of all the value for everything they provided was top notch. My wife and I compared many other companies and they are the best.

Secondly on the day super amazing food... Not only that but they were able to handle a mass power outage with only slightly changed one or two dishes, as they predominantly cooked with gas. They still managed to get everything set up, all food hot and ready for the actual time. Everything run smooth even with the chaos of crazy weather.

Thank you Dutchman's Caterers

We were a bit nervous to use this caterer at first for two reasons 1. We didn't know any one who has used them so we were relying solely on reviews from WeddingWire and 2. their prices were so reasonable that it was hard to image that the quality would be good. We decided to take a leap of faith and hire Dutchman's without having a tasting (although they offered) and we could not be more happy.

From the first time we emailed the company all the way through to them following up with how the event went, it has been an absolute pleasure to work them. Tina Gold, their events manager was wonderful to speak with and put everyone's worries at ease whenever we spoke with her. She was kind, understanding and accommodating. She was exactly the type of person you want to be dealing with at such a stressful time. We had one interaction with Mike, the owner of the Dutchman, and he answered our questions and made everything so easy.

During the event, the service staff was wonderful, they made the buffet look very professional and they kept things moving smoothly and on time. All of our guests have raved about the Autumn Harvest and Holiday Season Full Service Buffet. We could not be more happy with the food for our wedding.

Dutchman's Caterers is truly a wonderful business to deal with and their prices are so reasonable. One thing that was almost unbelievable to us was that with their full service events, they include the table settings (ie dinner and desert plates, silverware, wine and water glasses etc). This was a huge savings. They even added extra touches such as creating a veggie flower arrangement for the appy table.

I would recommend the Dutchman's Caterers to anyone looking for delicious, high quality food at a reasonable price. In fact, my cousin is using them next summer at his wedding.

Good selection of appies/options to pick from with exceptional service throughout my entire cocktail reception. All food was very tasty and displayed/served very professionally. I had a ton of compliments throughout and after the event. They were discrete with their setup and very clean. Nice ladies too!

wonderful!

We weren't sure what we were going to do for our wedding in these uncertain times. We decided very last minute, 3 weeks before the date, that we were going to go forward with our wedding and needed a caterer asap! Tina was very helpful, responsive and informative. The food was delicious and I received many compliments from guests!
