Had a perfect Thanksgiving dinner, 2024! Staff were professional and very helpful. The food was all excellent! Thank you!

Went here for a baby shower and while the venue was pretty, the AC was not blowing at all during the 3 hour event. The room we were in was 10+ degrees hotter than the hallways and restrooms. It made the experience uncomfortable, especially for the expecting mother. The servers were ok, but not present. They were not refilling waters, and there were not pitchers of water provided, so that plus the hot room were not a pleasant combination. The restrooms were also not tended to and quickly ran out of supplies. read more

This place really went downhill and fast. Let me start by saying my family and friends LOVED the Grove and had many events here. In addition to me getting married there in 2019, we have had wedding showers, birthday parties, and other events at the Grove. After our last experience here in June 2024, my family and friends will NEVER return. We recently had a baby shower here and had such a hellish time dealing with the staff members - it was a downright ABSOLUTE NIGHTMARE. NEVER AGAIN will we use the Grove. read more

I recently had a 21st birthday day here for my daughter, with 130 guest. To start as my daughter and myself walked into the room and it was filthy, floor had confetti all over it from a party the night before. The windows look like they never been cleaned. There was a leak in the middle of the dance floor. When asked about it, I was told it was from the air conditioning. Speaking of the air conditioning it was barely working. There was barely any food. The wait service would come out this a very small plate of appetizers. So half my guest had nothing to eat. I will never recommend this place to anyone. read more

Greasy, old and crappy. Let's start with the hostess... sitting on her phone... we came here looking a potential wedding site. Let's just say it's a hard no. Potato skins - day old and greasy. Ribs - way way way over cooked Corn bread - hard as a rock. Espresso martini. ZERO FOAM OR BEANS. Overall rating ZERO stars. read more

We got married here last week and I couldn't imagine getting married anywhere else! The grove at centerton is truly south jerseys hidden gem. From the moment we walked in we knew this was the venue. We were greeted by Luis and had the most informational tour with him, everyone here makes you feel like you're a part of their family. After touring six venues in the area we were very overwhelmed. Luis gave us all the information we needed to be planning our wedding and made us feel so comfortable with our million questions we had. We were a short term booking (6 months) and our coordinators Kate and Jess jumped right in on details and we were invited to their tasting event. One word...AMAZING. The effort this team puts into tastings is absolutely incredible and we had no idea we were invited for such a treat. There was live music, the room was set how it would be for a wedding, floral centerpieces from recommended vendors on every table, and a photobooth to add to the fun. After our tasting we got right to planning with the amazing coordination team. Kate and Jess were so meticulous with every detail and we knew our big day was in the right hands. We visited the property a few times as we are fairly local and every time we met someone new in their office we were always handled with care. One of the sales managers Tori was there to help with our final payment and was so patient answering some final questions we had. Fast forward to our wedding day and we were completely speechless. The food was to die for, our guests are still raving about it! Kate made sure we always had a drink in our hands and Jess was there to bustle my dress and help with our vendors arriving so I could enjoy my time getting ready in the bridal suite. If you are in the search for a venue for any type of event, I would look no further then The Grove at Centerton! read more

I recently attended a baby shower here. Overall, the place was great! The room was beautifully decorated, the seating was comfortable, the servers were attentive table side, and the food was tasty. My only comment was the salad being empty at the end of the buffet line. Other food items were being refilled as needed, but the salad bowl sat empty when the end of the line was choosing their options. The salad was refilled, but after everyone made their selections. Then it sat there mostly untouched. In spite of this little oversight, I would definitely recommend hosting an event at The Grove. read more

I was in the area for a wedding. This was a pleasant surprise because I've been to this place when it was owned and operated by others and it was nothing like this. This is a Tier 1 banquet facility. It can be up there with any other facility as long as they keep the right staff and this level of service they exhibited for their first wedding. Yes, the wedding I went to 8-4-18 was they're first wedding since the updates and renovation. Everything is clean, well designed, and very spacious. I arrived around 2pm to drop off something and they were literally still working on the final touches. Everything came together and the service was A+ The lighting was nice. I believe the uplighting was the facilities and the cake they provided was very flavorful. I worked at a banquet facility all through high school so I know good banquet staff and execution. They have certainly hired correctly and will make many events a hit in the future. My 20 year reunion is coming up and I may recommend this new facility for the event. We had our 15 at the old facility, but this will certainly be an upgrade. read more

See all

The Grove at Centerton is stunning! Rustic yet elegant. The staff was nothing but friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend having an event here. read more

We had my daughters wedding at the The Grove in June 2022. The rehearsal dinner, ceremony and reception were held there. Rylee and Krista were absolutely amazing. The Wedding was planned in a matter of 4 months and it was exactly how the bride and groom wanted. The decorations were set up just as my daughter wanted. The entire day went smoothly without a glitch. It was very convenient to have bridal and groom suites available prior to ceramony. The food was served exactly the time requested and tasted great. The guests raved about the appetizers as well as the dinner. The cake looked and tasted great. The entire staff (bar and food) were pleasant and courteous. The entire venue looks beautiful with the recent updates. We couldn't have asked for a better turnout. I HIGHLY recommend having any event at this venue. You will not be disappointed. read more

If I could give a minus 1 for the review I would. I was embarrassed for the lady who planned and paid for the event. We waited a complete your after getting our salads before our enters were served. Steaks, chicken, and pork were all very bland with little or no seasoning and were overcooked and tough. They were served barely warm, not hot. Vegetables were also overcooked and mushy. Cake and desserts were dry and the frosting tasted like it was made with a lot of margarine and very little confectioners sugar. It was greasy. There was at least one wedding and other events that night but it appeared that only 4 waitresses were handling all...perhaps that was the reason we waited an hour between salads and entrees and the barely warm food. Three guests have diabetes and had to go get sodas because their sugar levels had dropped waiting so long for food. Coffee was served in very tiny cups which were only filled half way. The room was freezing so that my son had to go to the car to get me a jacket. What should have been a memorable celebration was a vast disappointment. The manager still has not called as promised. IT WAS A COMPLETE WASTE AND EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTING! read more

Where do I begin?? Me and my husband always dreamed about having our reception at Centerton Country Club, we didn't go elsewhere to see if we were certain that we were making the right choice. We knew centerton was the right choice, but we were wrong. From the beginning we were getting the runaround. Apparently they can't keep anyone there. We booked through One girl, the following week another girl was reaching out to me because the one girl left, about a month later I started getting random emails from several different girls to come in and such to discuss our plans. I was a bit confused why I was talking to so many people. When we signed our contract we were entitled to the chocolate fountain, but when our wedding actually was taking place the chocolate fountain was an upcharge. They tried arguing with me saying it was never included and such and if we wanted it we had to pay the upcharge per a person to have it. I kept all the books including the girl business card stapled to it that we originally booked it with. About a month before our reception they wanted me to deal with another girl and I refused. All I wanted to do was deal with one girl for the whole planning. The first thing that set things off was the fact that we were never told that there was going to be any remodeling done or anything, including the name change. We spent a ton of money on our invitations that had the wrong name on it. Centerton did nothing to reimburse us or paid for new ones. We were promised for everything to be done in time it wasn't. The place looked like a construction zone. The entrance was not landscaped. All my ask was to make sure the light post were working and straight and the brush and grass to be maintained. It was not. That's the first appearance people see when they arrive. Embarrassing. When it was time to start seriously making the plans, we went and we knew exactly what we wanted. We were also having a band and a DJ for the band breaks. We were told we couldn't have exactly what we wanted. We were told how things needed to be set up and that's not what we wanted. This was an ongoing battle. Very upsetting and unprofessional. We were told what colors linens we should have and such also, we didn't agree. It wasn't our taste. We were suppose to have our food tasting one day that we scheduled it and the cook never showed up so they cancelled it. Everyone took off to be there, they had no sympathy. Never even apologized for the inconvenience. We had a band who required coke, Diet Coke, and a case of water and regular coffee. We had to provide that. For as much money we paid, we still had to provide it for them. Absolutely uncalled for. I had two dresses and I had to change into my second dress before the start of the reception after cocktail hour. I had to get dress in a junkie office. Why couldn't I get dress in the bridal suite?? Oh that's right because it wasn't completed and look like a construction zone, no air condition in it and the bathroom did not work. So therefore the bride had to use the public restroom. What is the purpose of the bridal suite? I also asked to use the bridal suite to get ready in the morning. That was an issue and I was told I would have to purchase drinks and food through them. Our band needed a dressing room to change their outfits and they were put in the dark hallway to get changed. Our cake was included in the package from country sweets in Woodbury, we got the runaround from them also. You could only get select things for your cake if not you had to pay the difference. It was pretty much the bare basic. Kept calling the bakery could never get ahold of Gerry who we had to speak to. We finally finalized our cake and it was still wrong. Never had the flowers on top and we were not having a cake topper. So we had this bare ugly looking cake with nothing on top. They did nothing about it. I even asked them to send a pic of the cake to me so I could see it first thing in the morning, they never did. Also my flowers were dropped off including my throwing bouquet and the throwing bouquet was nowhere's to be found, you know why it was on the cake table, so I had to use one of my girls bouquets. When the reception was done, we had to clean up, when we made our decor drop off we were told we could come back the next day to pick everything up. They gave us a problem with it. After all the problems we had we want to have another event there and they are giving us problems. Trying to tell me we have to have a certain amount of food and beverage purchase in order to have it there. Which was never said before. Very delayed response back from the event planner. You would think that someone who had as many issues and problems that we had and they want to do business with you again, you would be willing to do something for them. read more
