Corporate Testimonials

“My guests are aware of my loyalty to Pepper’s and come with great anticipation knowing the occasion will be a wonderful culinary experience. Those attending always comment on the artistic food display, and they always enjoy your pleasant and loyal staff. My confidence in your catering company allows me to focus on my guests – which I think is a great endorsement for choosing Pepper’s.

“I am an event planner located in Needham MA. I have been in business a little over 10 years. Over the years, I have worked with many caterers. Susan Lawrence (of) Pepper’s is the best. They are easy to work with and accommodating on every level no matter what the client needs are. I work with Susan 3 or 4 times a year and it is always a pleasure. She and her company give 150% of themselves to each project. Her food is excellent and her presentation is excellent. I have never been disappointed about the outcome of any party I have done with her. Her attention to detail especially when there is a theme involved is wonderful. I feel Pepper’s would be a wonderful asset to your group”

“Thank you so very much for catering the best pre-concert reception ever staged at any event in Symphony Hall. It was magnificent. You were highly recommended to me by several people whose opinions are well regarded with in Symphony, and from my first conversation with Susan I felt confident that the event would go smoothly. Initially, your professionalism impressed me, but that was only the beginning. Every step of the way, from the first contact until Opening Night at Symphony, it was always a pleasure to deal with both of you. Together I believe we have set a new standard for functions in Symphony Hall and I thank you for the greater role you played in that achievement.”

Kathleen Keith

Co-Chairman, Opening Night at Symphony

“I purposely waited this long to send this note at a time when your lives are just a little less crazy (maybe).

As an attendee of the Worcester Chamber luncheon, I truly was amazed at the quality, timing, and temperature of your meal. I said you guys brought your “A Game” – and always do.”

“As you promised, Pepper’s performed an outstanding menu of cocktail foods at our Leadership Circle Event at the Mechanics Hall on Mon. Jan 30, 2006. The service – wait staff – and all – were attentive. Although Julie is no longer at Pepper’s she did attend beautifully to all our details. Thank you for all your generous sponsorship – we look forward to working with you again.”

Christie McManus

“I just wanted to personally congratulate you and your staff on serving such a delicious lunch for the Chamber’s Annual Meeting at Mechanic’s Hall yesterday. Feeding almost 700 people simultaneously is no easy feat, I’m sure, but your staff certainly pulled it off brilliantly. Great job we hope to see you again soon.”

Karen E. Robert

“The evening went perfectly. Everyone commented on how wonderful and unique the food was. It was a pleasure to work with you, Cherie and Paul. I know this was a small event for you and I appreciate that you took the time to come out and meet me. I would not hesitate to use your company again or recommend it. Again, thanks for your services.”

“I want to thank you and your staff for the fantastic job you did catering the Board of Directors reception yesterday afternoon. Our Board was as impressed as I was with both the quality of the food served and the look that you created. I had been “trapped” in meetings in my conference room from 11:30 in the morning. When I finally opened the door at 4:15 in the afternoon, our reception area had been transformed with a bar set up and a lovely cocktail table of appetizers and I never event heard you in the next room bringing things in or setting up!

“In business, sometimes we make good decisions and sometimes we make poor decisions. Hiring Pepper’s for this reception was a great decision! Thanks for a real professional job. The food, service, and ambiance that you created were fantastic!”

“We are proud to have you as members of the Massachusetts Restaurant Association.”

Peter G. Christie,

CEO Massachusetts Restaurant Association

“In addition, the menu package that you put together for FLEXcon was great. I really appreciate your willingness to work with us to tailor the menu to our needs. We were able to offer a great selection of food at a reasonable price. The presentation, too, was well received and we have received a lot of great feedback form our employees.”

“We just wanted to drop you a note to say THANK YOU!! The catering services you provided to RE/MAX of New England’s Sales Rally at Mechanic’s Hall last month were fantastic.

“Thank you for contributing to the success of our event.”

Kristen C. Dreyer

“…The food was excellent, the service superb and the presentation breathtaking! I wish we had video taped the faces of the employees as they were walking into the food tent - their reaction to the presentation was priceless.”

Everyone has enjoyed fabulous food and service we have received at many functions that you have catered. You and the staff have a way of making the venues look absolutely fantastic.”

“People still talk about the tenderloin that was served at our holiday party held at Mechanic’s Hall. It was so tender that you didn’t even need a knife to cut it and then it just melted in your mouth.”

I personally look forward to working with you and your wonderful staff again in the future…Again, thank you.”
