Felt like trying a new place and I it was close to where I was traveling. I ordered the pork belly breakfast tacos. They were delicious. Now I have to come back for the pumpkin pancakes

Came here for brunch on a weekend morning and the place was a bit busy, but we seemed to have missed the rush as there were a good amount of people just loitering outside, probably done with their meal. Menu had solid brunch selections for reasonable prices. Food came out in a reasonable amount of time and everything tasted correct - I enjoyed my eggs and the home fries were great. Overall, solid brunch spot in Londonderry. Thanks, Janie!

Everything on the visit was just fine. This place is a part of Tuckers sphere of ownership. Tuckers offers better value though. Service was excellent.

Always exceptional. Friendly, attentive service and quality, fresh food. Best breakfast around.

Good is great. Service is better. Friendly, clean and has a varied menu. Plenty of seating so rarely a noticeable wait for a table.

First visit in a couple years and my first since the new ownership. Short version: the new…read morepitmaster hasn't missed a beat. The recipes are a bit different now but the quality of the meats and sides is high (often stellar) across the board. It's a trailer with smokers onsite. A few covered picnic tables allow comfortable eating, and there's even a supply of beach chairs for more relaxed eating. -- St Louis Ribs: A half rack came out a little on the thin side compared to previously, densely bumpy on the surface with a potent rub and a light basting during the smoking process. Lightly crusty on top, very tender underneath, with moderate juiciness and great flavor in every bite. Excellent. -- Ribs with Raspberry Chipotle Sauce: Same St Louis ribs, only glazed with a sweet but complex sauce with a little kick. It complements the spices on the rib surface very well and grows on you even if you're one of those no-sauce types. Excellent again. -- Pulled Pork: About as perfect as you can get. Tons of delicious bark, lots of good color in the meat, a juiciness that doesn't even require sauce, and a pronounced flavor from the spices used before and probably also after smoking. No dryness or steaminess anywhere; just perfect contrast of tender and barky throughout. Only possible improvements would be a little more smoke and the availability of a vinegar sauce, but there's not a single pulled pork in New England that can touch this. An absolute pleasure. Elite. -- Brisket: A thick slab had little ripples of fat, a sturdy outer bark, good flavor, and meat that was mostly closer to very moist and fairly tender than the previous regime's reliable floodgates of juices and extremely tender, but still a top 10% brisket. Hoping for a return to top 1% next time. -- Brisket Bacon (a frequent special): They take slabs of pork belly, prepare them like brisket, smoke them, and slice them thin for delectable finger food. It's not cured, but the strong rub, the wobbly tenderness, and the succulence of the meat are more than enough to more than satisfy. What's almost as remarkable as the deliciousness and texture is the lack of intrusive fat-- you can bite into these slices without any trimming necessary. One of the best barbecue items I've had this year. -- Sides: Coleslaw was a crunchy, vinegary rendition. Mac and cheese was sharp and extra thick-- more of a sludge than liquid. Baked beans were sweet, spicy, tangly, and meaty. Overall, very good to excellent. Water: Free bottled water in an ice chest is a very nice touch. Not a perfect day, but a very, very good one that very few barbecue joints in New England can come close to duplicating. With two wow-worthy items, two excellent ones and one very good one, plus quality sides and service, this gets an unquestioned upgrade to a 5. (The previous regime was a 5 on my last several visits too but I never got around to an update until now.) Looking forward to more great visits before the season ends.

Excellent Meats! Dino Rib, Brisket, St Louis Ribs and Pulled Pork all delicious. Excellent rub on…read moremeats, very moist and nice bark. Sides average but I did like the inclusion of brisket in the beans. Cole slaw was bitter and not sweet enough. Maybe best bbq I have had so far in New England.

Fantastic catering services!! For our daughters' combined birthday party, we were looking for a…read morelocal vendor to provide a la carte options and we were lucky enough to stumble upon City Moose. We order wraps and cookies and couldn't be happier with the quality, fair pricing, and tremendous customer service. Though they weren't able to accommodate us on the day of the party, Stacy worked with us to get our order the day before and the wraps were still just as good a day later. We highly recommend and will definitely use them again!

We met with Stacy & Jason for our first catering tasting (out of a whole list of restaurants) for…read moreour wedding & ended up booking with them before we walked out, cancelling the rest of our trials and we could not have been more correct with this decision. They used my love of food trucks to design a custom menu (self-serve food stations featuring: nachos, tacos, ramen & slider "bars") as well as serving mini crab cakes & lobster rolls (CHUNKS of lobster meat & claw) with a beautiful, bountiful "grazing" table (tons of cheese, fruit, veggies, hummus, house-made potato chips & dip)...all of this being entirely fun, casual & modern but decorated & set up so classy & beautiful to fit in with my "rustic elegant" barn theme. Our favors/place settings for guests were individually wrapped caramel apples tied with little ribbons and people were going nuts at how cool of an idea it was (also Stacy & Jason's idea!) The food was incredible. There were NO leftovers from dinner & only a small amount of apps left over because we over-ordered on purpose for a nice midnight snack ;] There were extra apples & I took most of them & plan on eating one a day for the next few days. All of our guests were blown away, had fun, complimented the food and Stacy, Jason & their staff's professionalism & hospitality. They even helped store & serve the dessert from the bakery I run (not their own product but they understood how important this element was to me). Stacy is incredibly responsive with all emails/the business end of things & to ICE THE CAKE, she offered us a decorating service as well! (AMAZING for me, who is aesthetically challenged). I was SPEECHLESS when I walked into our barn and saw the tables decorated with eucalyptus leaves, pumpkins, gourds, floating candles and an absolutely gorgeous sweetheart table. I'm still reliving the memories from yesterday and Stacy & Jason were a HUGE part of one of the most important days of my life & I could not have asked for a better caterer & decorator. I wish I could give them 100 stars instead of 5. They are worth every penny, do it, do it, do it. It was PERFECT.

Ordered pick-up catering for a larger event than I am used to planning, and the owner/chef, Josiah,…read morewas kind enough to field my (several) questions regarding the correct amount of food, allergen safety, and appropriate food options for the event. When I arrived the day of the event to pick up my order, everything was packed in a way that was easy for me to transport, gluten and dairy free items were clearly labeled, hot items were piping, cold items were chilled, and when it came to the taste and presentation? Excellence. I called five other different catering companies in the greater Lowell area for info and quotes for this event, but Coleman came out on top with their clearly defined prices, pleasant service, and ability to help me out in keeping a crowd of people fed without having to worry about whether or not they would be allergic to something served. I have no personal dietary needs but having family that does, I know how sub-par in taste and texture GF and DF foods can be, but everything Coleman made was absolutely delicious, flavorful, and made with care. There were very, very few leftovers. :) Having never dealt with a catering company for a mid-size event that was being thrown for someone else, my anxiety for making sure everything was perfect was quite high, but dealing with Coleman was such a pleasant experience that it made things very easy despite the pressure. 10/10.

We recently used Coleman's Catering with only one week's notice, and they were amazing. Even though…read morethey were already busy that Saturday they still managed to provide a wonderful meal for 90 people. We did not hear one negative comment - but we did hear so many people praising the wonderful salads, sides, steak tips (cooked to perfection), the blueberry balsamic chicken, and especially the brisket- which was the best I ever had. I highly recommend Coleman's Catering; they were amazing to deal with and take great pride in both the food they serve and their service.
