Footers catered our wedding on New Years Eve and we could not have been more pleased. We had a great experience from the start. Colbert was our main point of contact, she helped us get the menu together, coordinated our tasting, handled all the logistics leading up to the wedding, and her execution on the day-of was flawless. The staff was nice, efficient, and well-trained. Many of our guests said the food was the best they'd had at a wedding in a long time. 10/10 Would Recommend.

Any time you work with Footers, you know you are in for a treat! The food they create is always delicious, the presentation is always creative, and the staff are always top-notch professionals. They have a beautiful and spacious facility where they prep all their food and host their client tastings, Social Capitol. Their customer service is wonderful, their menu possibilities are endless and fully customizable, and the company also has a sustainability initiative that makes them a joy to work with, no matter what event you are hosting.

We were blown away by the attention to detail, professionalism, and delicious food provided by Footers for our wedding! Tabitha was amazing to work with, from choosing a menu, to the very fun tasting, to the execution of a beautiful cocktail hour, dinner service, and dance party, they truly were exceptional and I would highly recommend them for any wedding or event! Oh, and Tabitha made sure we had a quiet moment with a cocktail and apps along with a prepared dinner plate so we could actually enjoy our wedding food. This was huge for me! The staff was wonderful as was all the food. Thank you, Footers

Footers catered our corporate holiday party and I have nothing but appreciation for the team.
Sarah was a dream to plan with. She was patient, friendly, quick to respond, and helpful with every request. She made the planning process quick and easy, and didn't bat at eye at our last minute asks.
Paige ran the event a did a phenomenal job leading the team. She was always available and happy to help with a smile on her face. The whole team was professional and knowledgeable, and went above and beyond to make sure the event ran smoothly and that we were well taken care of.

WONDERFUL! Footers catered our wedding and we were so pleased with the result! We asked for GF, DF, and vegan options that still had to be delicious for the masses, and they really delivered!! So delicious and creative, and so many options for everyone! The staff were kind and accommodating every step of the planning process. I really can't recommend them enough!!

Our coordinator, Kelsey, and the whole crew at Footer's could not have taken better care of us for our wedding reception. We had all the challenges that you can expect with the 2020 Covid rescheduling for a larger event, and they were great through all of it. After 2 years of planning, we were finally able to have our event and not only was the food fantastic, but their staff is the kindest. They took excellent care of us and were a pleasure. Use them for your event. You will NOT regret it.

Footers catered a post wedding party we held and I would highly recommend to others. We had a quick turnaround time and they were quick and efficient. They handled everything (food, booze, flowers, table rentals and decor) and it made the party so much easier for me to plan. The food was delicious, the staff was friendly and accommodating and they added special touches to make our party feel individualized. They were nimble to handle changes in the weather and party planning hurdles that made our party run smoothly. I will use them again and highly recommend to others.

Footers catered my wedding and I could not have asked for better food and service. Numerous guests came up to me to compliment the food and/or staff. Each staff member was incredibly personable and… professional. Sam and Ronney knocked the menu out of the park… and that was out of a truck and on top of a mountain. True culinary talent! The planning process with Colbert was seamless. I was able to go into the day knowing that everything would be taken care of- there is not a price tag for this feeling when you are a bride planning a wedding from another state.

Footers helped make our wedding day so special! We worked with Kelsey throughout the planning process. She was wonderful about communicating clearly with us and answering any questions we had. On the day of the event, the entire staff took amazing care of us and our guests, and the food was absolutely delicious. I couldn't recommend Footers any more highly.

Four months ago Footers catered my son's bar mitzvah. I am so grateful to have worked with Footers on this event! First, the food was so good! Colbert at Footers, in conjunction with Jessica Adler at JA Special Events, put the whole night together - which is notable because we were the first bar mitzvah at the Exploration of Flight location. They… were creative with how to best set up the space and that night the team there made sure the service and food was top notch - everything was seamless. In planning, Colbert was so accommodating, working with us on the menu to find something that

What great food for a wonderful Mother's Day special. Even delivered to Castle Rock. The food was wonderful and they also provided potty plant with soil, drawing paper for kids and family, bath bomb for mom and so much more. Can't express what a great company. Even called and confirmed when delivered. Highly recommend this company. Hope they can stay open.

Footers food & their staff are beyond amazing!! From the moment we went to our tasting in their warehouse all the way up to wedding day they made everything simple & stress free. Kelsey was our coordinator throughout the process and Colleen helped orchestrate everything day of, both were amazing to work with. We loved our food, wish we could… recreate the tomato jam that came with our tri-tip!! The appetizers held us over for the day & since we didn’t get much of a chance to eat dinner they packaged us up huge portions of food that we got to enjoy the next day 😊

Finding Footers Catering was such a blessing!!! Our wedding was held in a tent outside in Northern Longmont, CO so getting hot and fresh food from a caterer was a big concern. When we found out that Footers cooks all their food on-site, versus most caterers who just re-heat the food on-site, all our concerns about them being a Denver based company evaporated. I've been to 3 weddings now including my own that were catered by Footers and they all stand out in my mind as some of the best wedding food I've ever had. Katie was amazingly responsive and accommodating to all my requests. I planned my wedding

There are not enough good things to write/say about this catering company. From start to finish it was a wonderful experience. We worked with Kelsey and she rocks. Ask for her! At our food tasting they accommodated my mom, sisters, and niece. My young niece tried the kids food and loved it. She's very picky and her plate was clean.
Our wedding was just last weekend at the Grant Humphreys Mansion and I was blown away by how fast they were at room set up, bar set up, dinner, professional staff.... etc. Being completely transparent, the string beans were a little undercooked however everything

We worked with Footers for our wedding at the Grant Humphrey's Mansion. From start to finish, it was an absolute pleasure working with Footers. I asked for an entirely gluten free menu to accommodate myself and several of my guests and Katie was great at helping me choose a wide variety of options. Our tasting at their facility was incredible and intimate to the point where we didn't even move forward with any of the other caterers we had contacted because it was clear that Footers was at the top of their game.

Footers catered my daughter's wedding in July. From the minute we arrived at their facility we were impressed! A nice touch when we saw a parking spot designated for us for the taste testing. Katie is the BEST! She was informative, creative and enthusiastic. Even though we had other less expensive options we decided to go with Footers. Katie went above and beyond our expectations. She and Footers were extraordinary and I wouldn't hesitate recommending them.

I got married at the Denver botanic garden last year and I was so glad to have Footers for our reception catering.
Service: Our coordinator, Brittany, was extremely attentive, friendly, helpful and very responsive in terms of emails and phone calls. We were given a tour at the footers kitchen and the food tasting was literally a full 3-coursed meal. I loved how they really tried to understand our needs and expectations. In addition, it was so easy that I could do silverware and table cloth rentals through Footers so everything could be set up at the same time.

When starting our wedding planning process, Footers Catering was recommended to us by a few different people and we now understand why. From the moment we arrived at their office/kitchen space we were greeted… like old friends and given a tour of their beautiful facility. The tasting continued to be incredible with each appetizer, main course and dessert we tried. They even went out of their way to make us donuts to taste because we had mentioned we wanted to add those! Our expectations were set high after that amazing introduction but they exceeded our every thought with their final product

When my fiancé and I first tasted the menu, we were incredibly impressed with the quality. Somehow, months later at our wedding reception, the food was EVEN BETTER than we remembered. The staff was so lovely… and efficient, especially Brittany Burrows, who went above and beyond on everything. I am so glad the wedding was a giant success, but I also kind of want to do the whole thing over again--it was that good!

The team at Footers did a fantastic job with our wedding celebration - the food was AMAZING and the team that helped us was even BETTER. From our very first phone call, through to the night of the party, we dealt with Brittany - she was professional, fun and a real delight to work with. She made sure that they understood exactly what we were looking for and then she and the team delivered - we couldn't have been happier! It was so nice to know that all the party details were handled so that we didn't have to worry about them and could have a fantastic time celebrating with our guests

My fiancé and I have decided to use Footers catering for our wedding in January. After searching for caterers, footers stood out to us from the start. Their customer service and attention to detail was… incredible. This evening we had our tasting with Kelsey and it was one of the best experiences we’ve ever had. From pulling up to having a designated parking spot with our name on it, to house made sodas waiting for us inside, to the amazing tour, friendly staff and AMAZING food it was truly incredible. We left feeling so confident that they will not only make us feel this good

Footers Catering has it where it counts. Since 1981, Footers has catered countless events with great quality and service.

The facility was clean, beautiful and expansive. The "Awesomeness" room had a popcorn machine, basketball and ping pong action.

A group of us had a terrific opportunity to take the grand tour of the headquarters of Footers Catering, and I have to say, this is one well run business! The front of the house is modern and elegant (as needed to sell new clients on their services), but more impressive was their cooking and prep facility - it was spotless and set up to deliver high quality service (from apps to full course meals).
The best part was the sense that they are a true family and team. This was evident in every conversation I had with their staff members.

What a fun catering company owned by the Lambatos couple! Their catch phrase is "awesome" as you can tell by their 'awesome parking spot' and 'awesome room'. They not only cater events but also host fun events @ their headquarters where they have a room called the "awesome room" that is fully equipped with popcorn machine, foozball machine, ping pong table & basketball game. You can tell that they like to make their work environment fun & that they value a family work environment.
