Jugs catered our wedding (300ish people), the service and food could not have been better. We had fried chicken tenders, green beans, scalloped potatoes, pulled pork and dinner donuts (apple butter biscuits) and it was amazing. Could not recommend them anymore. Thanks Jugs for taking care of us!

I've been hearing about Jug's for a couple of years, but never had the pleasure of trying it until a company luncheon today. The green beans were well seasoned & definitely cooked with delicious bacon in them. The mashed potatoes were perfect, not too creamy, but not too thick and were buttery. Let me tell you I now live for their fried chicken. It was meaty & juicy. What makes the fried chicken stand apart from other's is it's breading. It's perfectly seasoned & crispy, but not overly breaded. I was stoked that there were leftovers, but sad to learn there was

Excellent! This is the 3rd year we've used Jugs for our church Christmas Dinner. Once again they were excellent. The food was outstanding, the service stellar, and EVERYONE was thrilled with the food. They were set up in plenty of time, kept the food fresh and hot, and were very accommodating throughout the event. Highly recommended! Thank you!

We just had our wedding yesterday and had a buffet along with a full bar service. The entree (grilled marinated chicken breast) was very dry but all the sides were great. The best part about the catering experience was the flexibility that the staff had along with the energy and politeness of the bartender! I've never experienced a wedding with a better bartender and we received so many compliments from all of our guests!

Biscuits. Apple Butter. These are clearly food groups in Indiana. It's not any experience at the track (IMS - Indianapolis Motor Speedway) without Jug's Catering. Everything is good. It's hard to go wrong, but I think I've found some favorites over the last several years through various events for the Indy 500 or local weddings. I always start with my favorites, but really it just depends on my preference at the time.

Jugs is an amazing catering service. We had them cater our wedding last night and they did a fantastic job. The food was amazing (grilled chicken and BBQ). Several guests said it was the best wedding food they have ever had. All the food was cooked on site. You have to try the fried biscuits. They are out of this world. The gentleman tht did all the coordinating was very polite,professional, friendly and made us feel very special on our wedding day. We couldn't have asked for anything better. Thanks jugs!
