The stuffed chicken breast was extremely dry, the corn was undercooked and the rice was a hard, mushy consistency. With having a small wedding of 50 guests, I thought there would be less problems with food quality.

They serve a buffet weekdays plus a salad bar and homemade desserts. They also will make to order sandwiches and have several varieties of soup daily. Additionally they have a few locations for their catering business. For the buffet you can pay one price and eat unlimited there - or pay by pound for take out. My coworker claims she gets lunch there daily for under $5 which I think is impossible. I see the portion she comes back with and there's no way it's that cheap. I get a modest portion and have never paid less than $7. I posted a pic of my latest meal which rang in at $8. The food is homecook-ish if that's even a thing. The hot buffet usually has a protein, a starch and one or two veggies plus a hot dessert. You can go online and see the calendar of what will be served except for Mondays. I believe that's when they serve whatever is leftover from catering jobs over the weekend. While the hot bar is good I can't say I've ever had anything that was exceptional. The cold salad bar is modest but has a nice selection including a few pasta salads and my favorite the red beet eggs. I will say the soups are exceptional and cheap. I had a sandwich made to order once and never will again. Today they had 6 soup selections it was a nice variety. The crab and corn soup I sampled was creamy and had pieces of real crab. It was a keeper. The ham/bean and the cheeseburger soup are also really delicious. Feel free to ask for a sample - they don't mind! The employees are nice and the place is spotless and comfortable for dining in. Pulling out and turning left is a bit of a challenge and they do keep strange hours. They are not open on Saturdays even. If you go call ahead to make sure they're open and make sure you check out the soup even if it's just to get a sample.

We definitely made the right choice! I'm sure it takes tremendous skill to serve a delicious dinner to 150 people, and the Scarlet Runner staff performed superbly. My dinner of sweet potato soup and short ribs was at a level I would expect of a top-ranked restaurant, and this was at a catered event. Very impressive. In the days following the wedding we've had numerous guests offer unsolicited praise for their dinner, questions about who did the catering, etc. I'm just delighted with the performance and results of the the SR staff, they really delivered.

I've had ladies game days and anniversary celebrations basically catered by the bountiful variety provided on a Graze party tray. I am a huge fan of being able to pick and choose a little bit of a variety of bites. Whether it's salty or sweet, crispy or soft, the different options make for a fun meal or snack. And, within reason, you can customise these trays with communication with the business. For example, my husband and I do not consume anything that contains alcohol including wine flavoured cheeses and such, and I communicated that to graze, they took care of it without a problem. One of the additional benefits of going with trays or catering from graze is being able to try locally sourced products and ingredients. Some of the breads, jams and honeys I've gotten on my trays have become favorites. I've been home, sick this week, and craving Grazing board. I wish they were closer to Harrisburg!!

I was an out of state bride and they were so willing to work with my schedule. The team was so kind, detail-oriented, and made the process a joy. The food was incredible. The portions were huge. The dessert and cake looked like it came straight from Pintrest and my guests still rave about how amazing the food was and how beautiful the display was. My guests also made comments on how kind and friendly the staff was. I had a few guests with dietary needs and Simply from Scratch went above and beyond for the guests to have plenty of options from them. Our bartender was fantastic as well!

Not only are they extremely professional, organized, and clear on expectations, but it's apparent even from your first meeting with this team that they truly love weddings and the couples that they're working with for such a special day. My husband and I's main point of contact was Jennifer. From our very first meeting with her, when we were just inquiring about food vendors, Jennifer walked us through all of Simply From Scratch's services, and we were even offered some samples of food selections that piqued our interest. After hiring them as our caterers, Jennifer provided a detailed schedule of check-in meetings, reassuring us the entire time that they valued our choices and ensuring that our selections were noted. For example, my husband and I are not big cake people, and we knew we wanted pie for our fall wedding instead. Not only was Jennifer delighted by something different, but she and her team came up with the most stunning and delicious pie table for our wedding, complete with pecan pie bites that we still drool over when we think of them to this day! They also worked with us to come up with the yummiest signature cocktails that all of our guests were raving about. And the food itself was AMAZING! The presentation alone was a knockout! The team on our wedding day was also extremely professional and did such a wonderful job setting up, serving all of our guests, and cleaning/packing up everything afterward. Lastly, the team they worked with at Queen Street Linens for the table linens and napkins was just superb. They collectively took our fall color palette for our wedding and executed it beautifully. Hiring Simply from Scratch is a no-brainer - they cover food, dessert, bar, cutlery, and linens, and do it all in such a kind-hearted and professional manner!

We got married in July on a hot, summer Sunday, Drumore Estate was not only a stunning backdrop for our forever, but also, Marnie and the rest of the Drumore staff really are the dream team! They got us from start to finish with tons of support and stellar service every step of the way! It was incredible to see a list of notes come to life on our beautiful wedding day. Everything was picture perfect, on time, and just the way we imagined. No one even noticed the little issues, because Marnie and her team would ensure everything remained smooth. The staff was always incredibly excited, even when dealing with the stickier details. Thank you so much for everything you did--not just for us, but for our family and friends. Thank you for your patience and your kindness. If we had to do it again, we'd choose Drumore Estate every time. You all are the absolute best!!! Side note for couples looking for budget info: We felt that Drumore had a really great pricing structure/package as compared to other venues. There wasn't really any guesswork into how much the offerings would cost. The venue is based on dates and guests and then everything else is more or less a la carte, which offers a tremendous amount of flexibility for any budget.
