We used Shore Catering for our post-wedding brunch and they did an outstanding job. They were so easy to work with, have a great menu, knowledgable and answered all of our questions. They were so reliable and a pleasure to work with. I would recommend them to anyone looking for catering in the area.

A good friend recommended that we look into Shore Catering for my son's College Graduation Party. I went into their office, off Drum Point Road months before the party, which was Saturday, June 11th. I met with Summer who walked me through the prices and the options. We chose the BBQ package. Hot dogs, Cheeseburgers BBQ chicken, salads, condiments, baked beans, ALL the plates, forks and spoons, napkins.

Everything was included. Met with Summer a week before the Party and we had a final count of 75 guests, mostly young adult College students. They like to eat. The per person price was reasonable, so we were ready to go this past Saturday. The truck arrived a little after 2 pm. We had Donna and Mike as our chef and server. They set everything up under their 10 X 10 Tent, unloaded the grill and got cooking.

They took care of every need we had for cooking and Mike was exceptional at the grill. Donna was so friendly and helped us with massive amounts of garbage once everyone ate. The package included watermelon slices and cookies. Everything was cleaned up and packed away by 7 pm. The food was amazing. Friends couldn't stop talking about how GREAT the Baked beans and coke slaw came out.

A dear friend was amazed with the coke slaw. He said it was as good as his Grandma's recipe. The BBQ chicken was delicious. Donna wrapped up the remaining food left from the party and frozen food was immediately placed in the freezer. We've been enjoying left overs for 3 days now. We had enough food to have several couples over the next day for Dinner. GREAT JOB

If I could, I'd have a lobster bake every day with Shore Catering! We had a backyard adult birthday party with almost 50 friends and family. The planning process was simple! We had some vegan guests, and Shore was right there with ideas and options. Any change I needed to make on the menu they made, cheerfully. On the day of the party, each of the 3 folx on staff were friendly, professional, and accommodating.

They got to my home and seamlessly and quickly set up. They were on point with service and clean up too. They food was SUPER yummy and plentiful. Our guests (2 of whom are professional chefs in NYC) didn't stop raving about the food. Don't hesitate to book your next party with Shore. I know I can't wait for our next event!

I threw a birthday party in my backyard this summer and wanted to do a lobsterfest. I found Shore Catering online and could not have been happier. They were extremely professional from start to finish. The menu mplanning all the way to the clean up couldn't nhave been smoother. The food was amazing and the staff went above and beyond to help me. Thank you so much for an amazing party!

This past Labor Day weekend Shore Catering catered our event for 100 guests. We had the Traditional Clambake and it was wonderful. From working with the behind the scenes staff Patty, Sue and Summer to the staff on site Ken, Jen and Maria and those who set up. i would recommend Shore Catering to everyone. Thank you for making our event the best ever!

Great job catering my party this past weekend. All the food was delicious and my guests enjoyed it. My husband and I are enjoying the leftovers. We usually just stop in to buy cold cuts, sandwiches and salads, this is the first time we used the catering service. Definitely recommend!

The reviews were what made our decision to go with Shore Catering and they were spot on. We were a little reluctant to hire them without an actual referral, but I must say that the reviews convinced us to give them a shot and we were not disappointed. We had a backyard "clambaque" for 50 people and not one person had anything bad to say, in fact. numerous guests asked for the name and number of the caterers. Ken, Summer, and Kayla were personable, qualified, professional and simply good people.

They made us feel like they were friends at the party who there to help. I will definitely be using they're services in the future and would not think twice about highly recommending them!

We had a fantastic experience with Shore Catering for my son's outdoor engagement party this past Saturday. Our server and cook (Summer & Mike) went above and beyond our expectations. The weather was less than perfect - they arrived during a rain storm as a result of Tropical Storm Laura - they took charge and assured me our event would go off without a hitch and they delivered!

The food was terrific and the service was excellent. I would highly recommend Shore Catering for any event and be sure to request Summer & Mike - you won't be disappointed. Thank you again for everything!

I have been grabbing sandwiches here for the last few years and have never been disappointed! Now that they are doing the heat and serve dinners for only $10! I am thrilled. Good selection, well prepared, beats cooking at home and the price is amazing. Curbside delivery.feel safe and eat well. Love this place.

I too can't speak for the catering although it looks good. As far as the deli end goes they make a good sandwich with quality meats but unfortunately for a hefty price. The sloppy joe style sandwiches are great. As far as your staple breakfast sandwich in NJ very disappointed. Got 2 pork roll egg and cheese on a roll (1 for a friend) and a coffee which added up to almost $15.00!

Very large roll with maybe 4 tops, thinly sliced pieces of pork roll and an egg. Was mostly bread, but must say the roll was fresh. To be fair they mostly do catering so I'm sure that's is their focus. Staff was very friendly and helpful. The place very clean but for that kinda money it was disappointing.

I'm not sure about there catering but the walk in food is not that great. It feels like they don't want you in there because they are always busy making catering orders. The food is not that great depending on which person makes it. had a new guy that didn't know what a turkey club was? Had to ask other people. Another time I got a chef salad. I've had better prepackaged from shop rite.

It was crappy iceberg lettuce with sides of ham and turkey and shredded American cheese. Lame. I also tried a turkey melt. I watched them take the turkey and put it on a plate, throw a bunch of American cheese, and then microwave it for 45 seconds. uhhh thanks. For the high cost of there sandwiches it's just not worth going back.

Corporate Event.they brought the Clam Bake and Lobster Boil to us! Excellent food, service and fun. It was nice to enjoy our event rather than worrying about everything getting done! Shore Catering took care of it all.

Shore Catering was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. They helped us plan or daughter's 1st Birthday party, and made it so easy for us. We ordered appetizers, bbq buffet, drinks, kids menu, and coffee. We also had a server for the day, Barb, and she was so nice and helpful. Having her there really took all the food responsibilities off of us! The food was great, as was our entire experience with Shore Catering. Highly recommend!

My fiance used shore catering for my Oktoberfest themed 40th this past weekend. We received several compliments about the delicious food. They provided plenty of food ( still working on the left overs). My only disappointment would be that they forgot our beer cheese dip for the delicious, soft pretzels, which was something I had really been looking forward to and had others excited about as well. Fortunately, some friends got to googling some recipes online and were able to give us something to work with-

I ordered from here on a regular basis. It is perfect for a fresh sandwich. I order on the telephone and the last three times they messed up my order. I still go back because it is so close to home and serves good deli items. Baked items are delightful. I don't know that I would trust there catering services due to so many errors.

Shore catering is fantastic! They are so easy to work with, the food is FABULOUS and the staff is fantastic. They catered my brother-in-law's celebration of life. We had to plan everything from Massachusetts and they couldn't have made things easier! We wanted a relaxed atmosphere and chose to have fried chicken, BBQ ribs, sausage and peppers, mac and cheese, cole slaw, salad, corn on the cob, and cornbread. ALL of it was delicious.especially the homemade corn bread and I'm not a big corn bread person. I highly recommend Shore Catering for any event you may be planning!

Surprise 80th Party Shore Catering did an amazing job for my Father's surprise 80th party. Not only did I get tons of compliments on the food, they helped in so many ways with the planning aspect as well! I was looking to do a fruit display along with a Venetian table while the cake was being cut and they handled everything flawlessly! So much so that by the time I got a chance to get back by the dessert table, everything was gone!

The bakery also did a phenomenal job with my Dad's Lighthouse theme cake. Can't say enough good things about Shore Catering! They will certainly put your mind at ease when planning your big event. Worth every cent!

If you are looking for an AMAZING caterer, Shore Catering is IT! They did such an amazing job on our wedding!

Everyone raved about how great the food was, how attentive the staff were and how beautiful the tables looked!

Wow! If I only knew I could have this awesome experience, I'd probably only cater through these guys! We had the perfect clambake at home. The only thing missing was the beach, literally EVERYTHING else was thought through. Delivery, installation, utensils, napkins, plates. You name it, they bring it. And the FOOD. Well, you'll have to taste for yourself.

I cant believe I haven't done this sooner! I know I left my praises on all the wedding sites but forgot about yelp Shore catering & Patty helped me & my love put on the best wedding ever!. we are married 3 years now & there have been a few more family weddings since but my family & friends are still talking about the great time & food at our shore wedding! Patty assisted with more than any other caterer could ever!

From her amazing lobster bake & incorporating our special requests to providing me with reference's for our tents, location & even giving me her daughter to be my personal assistant for the day. My aunts quote was the best! "I have been to over 100 weddings over my 68 years & the lobster & fried chicken meal was the best she ever ate". you know you have great food & service when people are still smacking their lips 3 YEARS later! Thank you Patty. I am thinking we might have to renew our vows just to do it again!

Proud to be the first Yelp review for Shore Catering. We've recently had our off-site wedding catered by Patty & Shore Catering, as well as our rehearsal dinner. Our kudos couldn't be any higher. Food quality and taste just wonderful, as well as plentiful. For our wedding reception we chose a lobster/clam bake - The clams cooked to perfection and of the best quality, the lobsters, enormous and some of the best I've ever had.

Everything was fantastic, we received so many comments from guests exclaiming it was the best food at a wedding they've ever had. Patty and her team are just the best, so wonderful and thorough. Looking to cater a wedding in Ocean/Monmouth County? CHOOSE SHORE CATERING!
