UPDATED: Great Caterers in the Area: Who Do You Love?

For the next two weeks, right in time for graduation season, we're asking our readers who their favorite local caterer is.

 

UPDATED at midnight on June 1:

We asked who you love for your catering, and you responded.

Congratulations to Scrementi's for winning "Most Loved Caterer" in the area.

Their owner was unavailable for comment when we called but we'll be sure to update this article if we hear back!

—————————————————————————————

Whether you've got a graduation party to plan, an upcoming birthday party, or any number of other summer events, chances are you're going to be in the market for a caterer sooner or later.

We want to make sure your upcoming celebrations are a success (culinarially, at least) and we want to make sure your hard-earned money is well-spent, so we're polling the community: which local caterers do you love?

Below, we've got a poll based on suggestions from our Facebook readers. Each vote counts as a point in our scoring system.

Beyond the poll, however, all our readers are welcome to leave comments under this article and positive reviews under the respective catering places. Each positive review is worth five points—or five votes in our poll. Additionally, you can review anyone in the comments, not just the places involved in our poll.

And of course, thanks for all the input. Happy voting and happy eating!

Scrementi's (f/k/a Sam's and Brown Onion!) has catered our graduation parties for 30+ years. One less thing to worry about when you are planning a party because you know the food will be good! Our last graduation party we added the Romano Chicken and my guests loved it! You can't go wrong with Scrementi's!
