My sisters and I came in with high expectations for my mom's retirement party, and Peppers Artful…read moreEvents absolutely knocked it out the park! From the initial conference call with Sarah when we were comparing several caterers, their menu proposal perfectly captured the look and feel we wanted. The event was at my sister's house; Peppers arrived early to set up, which meant we could actually relax and enjoy getting ready instead of stressing and scrambling around! Their crew took over every detail like a team of little magical elves, they even brought complimentary décor that perfectly matched our coastal theme. Even the food displays were works of art, and I'm still kicking myself for not taking photos! And then there was THE FOOD!! Genuinely phenomenal, it tasted even better than it looked. We went with stationary hors d'oeuvre displays and tray-passed appetizers before the main stations, and everyone was (and still is!) raving about it. I honestly can't pick a favorite. We also opted for full bar service; our bartender, Tracy, was fantastic! If you're trying to decide between Peppers and another caterer, do yourself a favor and just go with Peppers. They made my mom's retirement celebration SO incredibly special, and we couldn't be happier!

There are almost panoramic views of the water and they catch lobsters right on the own dock. I would return for the ambiance and service, but not necessarily the food. We ordered a poke bowl and a bowl of clam chowder. The poke bowl was very fresh and had lots of fish and veggies, which were tasty. I really like that they added seaweed salad. The only thing is that it was VERY salty due to an excess of sauce. Next time I would order the sauce on the side. Our clam chowder was average, and tasted more like potato soup than actual clam chowder. I definitely wish they included more clam chunks as well. Overall the menu was pretty basic and had nothing beyond what every New England seafood restaurant has to offer, with food quality slightly below average.

Many plants were around was an added plus too. Due to showing up so early, especially on Easter meant no one else was there but I assume it turns into a very popular spot at certain times/days. They have many different games available to play as well. As well as host different events that you can check their socials or website to see whole months worth of events. They have a good variety of food and drink offerings as well to help power you through your gaming session or as a grab and go option too. I grabbed an iced vanilla latte while my wife got the lavender iced latte. For some small bites I grabbed a chocolate chip scone and my wife got an everything sour cream scone. The staff asked if we wanted them warmed up with butter which was a great option! A perfect bite to pair with our drinks. Neither my wife or I are really much of gamers in the sense of tabletop games. If you are a fan of that style of games or want to dip your feet in this would be the ideal spot for that. They also had puzzles and board games available for sale as well as puzzle and book exchange too. Check this place out!
