Cravings Fine Food & Catering

Craving was our wedding caterer and we are very happy with their service. Aemelia is easy to communicate for all event details and the staffs on site are very friendly. Our guests all enjoyed the food and the arrangement.

Cravings Fine Foods Fails to Show-up!If your family event is important to you, then Cravings is not a trustworthy choice. Craving's failure to show up and deliver the dinner for our planed and confirmed Family Celebration was heartbreaking.The worst possible scenario for any special event, is the caterer whom, you have worked with closely and are trusting to prepare and provide the meal as promised, fail to arrive! It is one thing to under deliver the quality of food expected, but inexcusable not to show up at all!Cravings failed to uphold their professional responsibility to cater the celebration of our Mom’s 90th birthday as trusted. This was the first family gathering after almost 18 months of Covid restrictions and isolation and one where we wanted to celebrate the resilience of this amazing woman who lived alone the whole time!The following timeline demonstrates the advanced and careful planning at our end and Cravings knowledge, and professional commitment to the celebration itself.1. June 9th – Event Date Confirmed and Contract Signed.2. June 9th- 50% Deposit Made for Family Event.3. August 15th - Final numbers confirmed with Cravings.4. August 19th – Final Payment Made5. August 21st – Cravings fails to show for the event leavingguests waiting 2 hours for a dinner that never arrived.Phone calls were not returned on that day or since.6. August 23rd – Received a full refund.Failure to Deliver or Failure of Character?Choosing not to follow through on a commitment happens, but choosing to avoid taking responsibility for your choice is worse. Leaving your client to suffer when you could have made other arrangements and not returning their distress calls, is unconscionable. Not only did our family suffer as a result of their choice, but Cravings hurt their professional colleagues by not referring business they did not want or could not manage. Colleagues who had all suffered with the restrictions of Covid and the direct impact on their businesses and the staff they employ.4 weeks later we had a Family Wedding and a number of family gatherings over the week-end (all outside). There are 3 Caterers who did honour their commitment and provided outstanding service and scrumptious food.Caterers you and your family can trust to show up! All of them travelled to accommodate our event in Simcoe County and restaurant owners/chefs who all travelled to the Simcoe County area to make the wedding weekend special.1. The Boathouse Eatery, Midland provided amazing mouth-watering food for two events. A small intimate dinner forthe immediate family of the bride and groom and a largeroutdoor family gathering, with appetizers and sit downdinner. Amazing chef and staff.2. A Million Mouthfuls Catering -Newmarket delivered adelicious wedding BBQ. Chef and owner Anne-Marie wentabove and beyond and she showed up!3. Kivas Bakery and Restaurant, Toronto, delivered anappetizing Sunday Brunch. Travelled a distance to make thishappen and showed up!Choose your Caterer wisely and ask them if they have ever failed to deliver the meal and if so, how did they compensate their customer? How did they take responsibility for the damaged caused and what effort was made to make things right"?The question of it being a failure to deliver or the failure of character is often distinguished in how one takes responsibility for their choices and their mistakes.Choose wisely."

Enjoyed a coffee and sandwich at cravings. Amazing quality and appropriate price. Very good coffee. Cobb sandwich was amazing. Took some taro root chips home- delicious. Small cafe to sit and enjoy and large selection of take home items. Hidden gem in Barrie. Highly recommended.

Our family received the thanksgiving meal for 6-8 people from cravings. It was amazing !! There was more than enough food for 6 people plus leftovers. My kids especially loved the roasted vegetables. The turkey was so moist and flavourful. The gravy was perfection. I can’t tell you how impressed I was with the quality of the food. I will be disappointed when the leftovers run out. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for an elevated home cooked meal.

We had the pleasure of working with the team from Cravings for our wedding. This included bar service, hors doeuvres, dinner, dessert, and late night food options for over 100+ guests.The food was delicious and perfectly prepared and presented. Cravings also placed a special focus on finding as much locally sourced product as possible. Their hospitality staffing for the event was filled with dedicated, hardworking, polite and kind hearted individuals. This is the type of crew and company that made our event seamless and will do the same for all their customers.

High quality food great service and set up at Quayles brewery for our wedding event. Guests commented it was the best butternut squash soup they had ever had! Enjoyed it very very much. No regrets going with Cravings. Would definitely have them cater another event for us.

Thank You Cravings Fine Food! Excellent, delicious and beautiful are only three words to describe what you did for us last weekend.So appreciated.Dianne

Looking for a wedding caterer? They're your guys! Ditch the boring old basic pasta and dry chicken - when you go with Cravings they'll wow your guests with not only delicious, but unique and creative food for your big day.

We used cravings for our wedding last summer and it was by far the most stressful part of our wedding planning. The food was just alright and their communication was terrible. There was multiple items that we specifically requested and were not served and replaced with items we did not want served. They also stopped serving wine for our tables when we had paid quite handsomely for unlimited wine during dinner. They were very difficult to deal with, so save yourself the trouble and find a caterer that will actually work with you on your big day.

Cravings is incredible!! The food that comes out of this amazing place will leave you speechless, and wanting more! Today we ran an ice diving course down at Centennial Beach. Sean and Ashley brought down about 8-10 pizzas for the whole crew. They had creative names, which were the 3 digit airport designation codes, each of which represented a flavour explosion representative of that city. We couldn’t get enough. It’s rare that I’d say I’d have paid twice as much for restaurant food, but this would have been worth every penny. Sean and Ashley... congratulations on creating something really special. Looking forward to more!! You have to check these guys out and have them cater tour next event!!
