There was ample parking in the back and enough tables and chairs for guests to sit and feel comfortable. They had a fridge to store food, speakers, and a smart TV where you could cast videos or music. They have clear clean up institutions to follow, and overall it was a good value. I definitely would recommend!

The food was very good- the usual brunch buffet spread of breakfast items, bagels and lox, pastries, etc. Sweetie even got me to eat some of the fruit and veggies. Service was excellent. The facilities worked perfectly for a mid-sized party, with a large room for the food and tables, a bar alcove, comfy sitting rooms, etc. It would be a great place for a wedding and/or reception or a large family reunion.

There isn't a big open dining room, so tables for the dinner were split in two rooms plus outside on the patio (with a big tent). The food was excellent as well, which isn't always the case with banquet food. I have no idea what the status is about if this is a members only club or what it takes (or who you have to know) to host an event here, but from a guest's perspective this is a five star experience.

Tucked away in the back 40 off Monroe Street you will find this event center. Shorty' Back Forty is…read morea Mancy Family owned business. Famous for having the best of what they do in the restaurant business. Complete event center with catering, bar , entertainment, outside area with a bar. Parking is shared with a number of other businesses in the area. I did not have a problem in finding a parking spot. 130 people were at this 50th reunion. The hall accommodated them in a cozy but roomy space, utilizing the outside area as well. It was a cash bar, you could run a tab as I did. The food was excellent. They did have a staging area for a band or DJ. Everything went smoothly, Shorty's Back Forty exceeded my expectations.

My daughter's wedding was this past weekend. It was fantastic! The Summit Event Center was the…read morefirst place we toured a year ago. Right from the first meeting with Becky, we knew this was the right fit for the wedding reception. Our goal was to have all events for the weekend in Downtown Toledo and The Summit Event Center was perfect! The Hotel was a block away and all other events were close by within walking distance which made it easier for the guests. Becky is so informative and professional, always returning calls or emails within a day. Becky and her staff took so much stress out of the wedding reception planning. The free monthly tasting were so helpful. This gave us a chance to bring various people to the tastings to help choose the right food and see the venue. It also gave us an opportunity to get to know the staff. They exceeded our expectations! We wanted to customize our food and make it a fall theme. Chef Keith was so helpful and willing to figure out the right combinations of foods. The late night snack of chicken chunks and mac and cheese was a huge hit! Hannah, the Bar Manager, made a fall specialty drink with warm apple cider that was also a favorite with the guests. All of the waitstaff were attentive and polite making sure everything was as we had requested. The house DJ was an awesome choice! Having the use of the inventory of event decorations was a big money saver. We loved going thru the items to get ideas. The package pricing made it so much easier to plan the budget for the reception. Becky was so helpful in making changes to the package that fit our needs. Our families and friends had an excellent time from the delicious food and drinks to the fun dance music to the wonderful decorations, we highly recommend having an event at The Summit Event Center! Thanks to Becky, Hannah, Chef Keith and the rest of the staff! We made some awesome memories!

About 45 minutes later we were finally called up to the buffet just to find out that pretty much all the food was gone anyway. And the food that was left was cold and not at all flavorful. Find someplace else for your party. The only good thing was the bar... they pour generously.

Now, the employees are really nice, and it seems organized, but I don't think I'd have my kids' party here. My child was a guest and there were two parties going in at same time and it was a zoo. Instead of letting the kids go play freely, they shovel them from one inflatable to the next and then close the other ones down! What sense is that to have 3 out of the 4 play areas closed while 1 is in use? I hope this helps; I suggest visiting it on a weekend before booking.

This is an especially good place for young children because they keep all the kids together and interacting - otherwise you would see bunch of kids playing at the same location but not together. Can sometimes get chaotic over the weekends when there several parties going at once. Otherwise would say 5 stars.
