Honestly I've never ordered from here, but when I walk past this place with my dog in the morning there's usually some cold water sitting outside in the shade and someone comes outside to give my pup a treat. It always smells so good when they open the door and the people are very nice! I'll use them if I need catering in the future :

Had my daughters shower yesterday (6-6-21) with Eastern Shores Club as the Venue and Struck Catering for the food and service. I have been planning this for months working with Cindy Card. She is very personable, making sure that the food we chose was what the bride-to-be wanted and to please guests as well and making sure all was set for our day.
She takes the time to listen to you and explains everything in detail. The venue was perfect! Very scenic with the lake in the background. Very clean facility. The food was phenomenal! The bar tender and server were so very pleasant and eager to wait on my guests and to make sure everything was setup the way we needed. I highly recommend everyone to check out Struck Catering and the Eastern Shores Club for your next event, you will not be disappointed!

Struck catered my wedding recently. Cindy was helpful from the start, helping me plan and connecting me with other wonderful vendors. On the day we felt safe with the Covid precautions and diligent mask wearing, as well as Absolutely wonderful food, the guests couldn't stop raving! and the the server Danielle was so on top of things, she knew what I needed before I did! I definitely recommend Struck, and will use them in the future for events!

We had a great experience with Struck Catering for our small (25 person) wedding this past weekend! Barbara was great to work with. She was very responsive and so helpful to someone like me that is very indecisive. The staff at the wedding was professional and kind. They always made sure that myself and the groom had enough to eat and that our drinks were full. Couldn't have asked for a better experience and would definitely recommend them without hesitation!

Cindy is a joy to work with! We loved everything from our tasting to our wedding day. Struck was incredibly prompt, attentive, and made our reception such a memorable experience. Cindy made sure that we were seated and fed since my husband and I were running around all day. The food was incredible. Guests were raving about our appetizers, the statler chicken and potato gratin, ginger encrusted salmon with cous cous and carrot flan (my selection!) and butternut squash ravioli. Amazing! I loved working with them and our day wouldn't have been the same without them!

Thank you so much for making my bridal shower a major success! Your attention to detail and will to make this event a success both leading up to and at the event was greatly appreciated! You went above and beyond guiding and helping with planning making our vision come to life. The food-wow! We needed a lot of options from paleo to vegan. Everyone was beyond happy with the food options. The team was friendly, engaged, and professional. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Struck catered my October 8, 2016 wedding. All I can say is AMAZING! They did such a phenomenal job and were so unbelievably professional. The owner, Barbara, is so easy to work with and made sure that all of our preferences were met. My guests couldn't stop raving about how delicious their meals were and how attentive the wait staff was. I had one guest remark on the speed and efficiency of the meals being delivered to the tables.
As the bride and groom, we had heard so many times that we wouldn't have a chance to eat on our wedding day. Struck made it a point to let us know when food was being delivered to our table so that we could sit and eat with our guests. We had two designated servers, Amanda and Kim, and they were both wonderful! I can't say enough about what a fantastic job Struck did catering my event. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a caterer in the Worcester area.

Needed 5 meals catered in Worcester for an event for a branch office at my company. Struck Catering helped me out in a last minute jam. I ordered breakfasts and lunches and the employee who came to set up and tear down did a great job working with our needs. People loved the lunches especially, like the bacon wrapped chicken and pretty much everything else.
I loved the Mediterranean sandwiches which had no meat or dairy. The prices were great and I loved how they assembled the presentation. Highly recommended! Thank you Struck Catering!

Russell, you are a rockstar. Always impassioned and stunningly unique, we commend your affinity for innovation. Your dishes are both meticulous and classy - eye catching and delicious - thoughtful and sensational. Rumor has it that you were once nominated for the JB. We're not surprised. Thank you for gracing Worcester with your indisputable culinary talent.

Struck was one of the many caterers we spoke with about catering our wedding, but from the start, they were the clear front-runner. We tried the appetizers at a local wedding open house, and we were completely hooked. Add in delicious, seasonal entrees (chicken stuffed with apples and gouda and wrapped in bacon? Yes, please!), a wonderful, organized staff, and willingness to cut our pies (instead of cake)----we couldn't have asked for anything better.
All of our guests were wowed by the food. It was so far from "wedding food" that I can barely call it that. If you're getting married in the area, I strongly recommend looking into Struck's services.

We met with Struck to see about catering for our wedding. We told the woman that we didn't have a date set and were hoping for Memorial Day weekend. Then she started talking about options for late summer food and we reminded her that we were thinking about Memorial Day rather than Labor Day. She stated that they didn't work on holidays and then proceeded to treat us like we were idiots and was frustrated by the fact that we did not have a specific menu in mind.
After all, we came to her to get help coming up with a menu. We told her we were flexible with our date and would still like a quote for a menu. She agreed to send us a quote, but we never received one. Three months later, she asked us our mailing address to see if she could still provide a quote and again, NEVER SENT ONE. It was a terrible experience and we felt more welcome at other local catering establishments.

We chose Struck to cater our wedding and only one word can describe this place- Fabulous! The food was mouthwatering and delicious, the service was superb and they even set up our centerpieces for us. The price was EXTREMELY reasonable and all of our guests commented on how great the food was. To top it all off, they were perfect for our environmentally friendly wedding- they use all local produce and meats. If you are looking for an outstanding caterer for an event in or near Worcester, this is the place for you.
