Rocklands catered the Celebration of Life for my brother at Carderock Pavilion in Maryland, and it was WONDERFUL. The staff was excellent - organized, responsive, helpful, expert, and just plain nice. The food was amazing - the meats and all the sides were delicious, and our guests went back again and again. The clean-up was swift and immaculate. They provided to-go boxes for leftovers and took the extra food to donate. The planning was easy, and they checked with us several times to make sure that they were on track for what we wanted. They were flexible when we wanted to bring a couple of family recipes that my brother loved and made space on the buffet table for our offerings. My family and guests were all effusive in their praise of the event. We will continue to enjoy the restaurants and will certainly be contacting them again for future celebrations

Outstanding Catering Service from Rocklands Barbeque!

Our company has been hiring Rocklands Barbeque for our annual summer barbecue, and they never disappoint! Each year, they come to our chosen location - usually a colleague's home - fully equipped with everything needed to serve an amazing barbecue feast. Their team is professional, efficient, and friendly, making the entire experience seamless.

The food is always delicious, with a fantastic variety that accommodates all dietary restrictions. Whether it is the perfectly smoked meats or the flavorful sides, there's something for everyone to enjoy. Rocklands' commitment to quality and service keeps us coming back year after year. Highly recommended for any event!

Rocklands is my go-to place for catering backyard barbeques. I know I can count on them to be on-time, with quality tasty food. They have NEVER let me down.

After searching numerous venues to no avail, I decided to host my book club at my home and let Rocklands provide the food. It was excellent and everyone raved about the ribs and chicken. The ordering, communications, (both emails and over the phone) were courteous and informative....and the food was delicious and warm upon arrival. The delivery was on time, despite the many events going on in DC that day. I will definitely use Rocklands for my next BBQ event!!

We hired Rockland's food truck for our son's graduation party, and it was fantastic! The food and service was great, and at the end they carefully wrapped all of the leftovers and even offered to set it up as a spread in our kitchen (for our late arriving guests). Additionally, we inquired about very specific allergies ahead of time and were provided a very detailed breakdown of what each of the products did or did not contain. I 100% recommend and would use again in similar circumstances.
