The Grand Guelph Banquet & Event Centre

I had the pleasure of working with John Trevor and his team for 2 events within the last few weeks (holiday parties for kids and then adults). I was so impressed with their service. Throughout the entire process, John was very helpful and accomodating. Feedback from our employees has been extremely positive. A special thank you to John Trevor and his amazing team for making our holiday parties a memorable and wonderful experience. We look forward to working with them again in 2022!

Nice decor but a little basic, bartender was awesome. Food was not good at all. The small salad was great but the main course prime rib" was pretty much the most hillarious joke I have seen in a while. Shrivelled dried out veggies

It is a nice large banquet hall. Ceiling is very tall and has different colours on the top. Looks very nice in the night. Makes the atmosphere. Came here many times with ZATTU Photo Booth. Staff was always very nice and helpful. If you book the entire place you can fit many people. Maybe around 500 people.

An excellent local venue with incredible staff that dropped whatever they were doing to help me get things done that were time sensitive. Things changed on the fly, and they accommodated us. Food was tasty as well, no negatives. 6/5 stars

We had our wedding here last weekend and were so impressed. This place is amazing. Kevin, Allison and Kate were so attentive and accommodating.FOODThe food was phenomenal. We went with the smoked prime rib and stuffed chicken supreme. Throughout the night we had multiple guests compliment the food. We also requested a special vegetable assortment for the side and they executed it perfectly.VENUEIt's a little bland from the outside, but the inside is very nice. We went previously for some wedding shows that were held there and it's a very versatile space. The lobby is great for cocktail hour and the fountain makes a great backdrop for pictures. We had 125 guests and one room fit them all comfortably. The 2 sided bar also helps with congestion during peak serving timesOVERALLSo many good things to say about this place. From start to finish they were very attentive to our needs and the end result was outstanding. They were also really flexible with our vendors and our hectic schedule on the actual wedding day. Would highly reccomend

I attended a one day seminar. Great use of space in an older mall. Nicely done. Caterer is close by.

I cried how hard I laughed with how sad the service and food at my work Christmas party here.Cold hors d'oeuvres, late plain tasting dinner and a dessert/coffee/fruit area at the other end of the hall which no one said anything about which looked like a grenade exploded with food thrown everywhere and minimal utensils.

Kevin and Samantha are great to work with! Despite all the stress a bride goes through during her wedding, I can say that they did everything to make sure my venue is not part of that list.Two days before my wedding, Kevin stayed until 9pm for my bridal group to be able to practice their dance. The day before my wedding, Kevin himself moved several tables around until I was happy with the set up.They were easy, flexible, understanding, sympathetic and worked with my vision and budget. I was a VERY happy bride. My husband was also very happy with their service.I would recommend this venue for your wedding!!

John was a great help! The food was delicious.

What a difference a few years make from my last review. Platter's Catering has made a real difference for food and service quality. Sound system still needs some work, but maybe people don't know how to use the microphone properly.
