Meadows Banquet Hall

This review should be 1 star but I gave it two because the scenery is nice outside. My family and I ate here on mother’s day. Oh man the food was horrible, wasted $ 20 for cold and tasteless food & small selection. The décor was outdated… needs a serious upgrade. Honestly chicken fingers and mashed potatoes were the only good thing. I loved that it’s a family business but they gotta get it together.

I just had my wedding there over the weekend and the experience was absolutely wonderful! From the delicious food to the excellent service I would recommend the Meadows to anyone of my friends or family members! Also the cakes are scrumptious! Thank you to the Meadows staff for making my special day unforgettable!

We recently hosted a wedding at the Meadows. The food was great. 2 weeks before the wedding they were having a problem with the air conditioning and the day of the wedding it was not working at all. The reception hall had to be at least 85 and the bathroom, well over that. Most of our guests left before the cake was cut because they could not take the heat. The DJ that they suggested, Mr. Finger was awful. Lost all the music and pictures we put on a flash drive, not once but twice and the bride was filling him in 15 minutes before the wedding ceremony. He did a terrible job. The morning of the ceremony we were told that the cake could not be decorated as we had previously arranged two weeks earlier. The chocolate fountain was runny and would not stick to any of the items they served with it. All in all, a not what we were promised at all.

We just attended a wedding reception at a pavilion in a public park, and had expected a simple picnic-​y meal because of the venue (didn’t know there would be a caterer). What we had was a fun meal that fit the bride and groom’s multicultural guests. Grilled chicken with veggies, steak, pigeon peas and rice, followed by a Sundae bar and pastries. YUM!!! They used different food stations and movable tables to keep the meal flowing, and flowing and flowing. The veggies were crisp-​tender, the steak perfect, and I want the recipe for the rice! Meadow catering did a great job.

As a manhattanite, I can be quite picky but this place must be the world’s worst.
I weekly dine at five star restaurants so I expected this not to be anything special but OMG… seriously junk.
Yesterday I attended my God Sister’s wedding, and yes I realize it’s PA in the middle of Hickville but why even have a place of this nature still open.
Now putting my snobbish tendencies aside, the place is seriously run down. No valet parking (like I would seriously let them touch my car), a ladies room that looks worse than a rest stop. It was so hot & humid in there, plus the sink had scalding hot water only. (People are not washing their hands… hence the food poising cases)
And the food… was what prisoners must eat. The «beef» was serious road kill… no joke. I attempted to taste what was on my plate. I think the place takes advantage of the area and the people who book events here. Seriously gordon Ramsey should come here… if you go here for anything eat before and don’t order a badly made martini.
Side note the bartender uses her bare hands to touch the olives. Which are gross too.
Best of luck to ppl who ate or are going to eat here.

Disappointing. The food by the exclusive caterer is inedible and nothing I could ever provide to my guests.
It’s a shame since the venue is just beautiful. If they would allow outside caterers, this would be a top pick for all my events.
For equivalent prices with gourmet level food in the Valley, Culinary Experience Catering is your best bet —
. They cater at Grist Mill, Dewey, and several other places (they can provide a list).

I eat here often for the M-​W buffet when I’m in town. The food is so-​so (much is warmed over, but what’s wrong with leftovers?), but the value could not be better. For $ 7 you get a buffet with salad, soup, drinks, desserts, and about 6 entrees (including a great vegetarian mac and cheese). There is also a nachos station and appetizers. They often have Karaōke and Mike the Magician.

Barely average food that is drowned out by rude, incompetent staff. We held a family occasion here & the bartender had no social skills whatsoever. She was quite frankly horrendous and mean to the kids. Quibbled over an extra cherry in a Shirley Temple — in my entire life I have never been to a place that wouldn’t give a kid an extra cherry. They were also walking prospective customers through the room before our event was over and cleaned up way too early. Mediocre grounds surround the place. Go anywhere else if you can help it.

You get what you pay for. I went to a HS reunion here. And, for the price, I think we got good value.

I don’t know about weddings, but…
the Monday «Atlantic City Buffet» is just plain terrible. What an injustic to the real «Atlantic City Buffet.» which we have eaten many times. The lettuce was wilted and brown, there was no real varity of meats, except dry chicken that tasted like it was leftover. The grill outside was something else! The hamburgers were pre– cooked and kept in a vat of water floating with grease and then heated on a grill. When the kitchen helper came to add more lettuce and rice pudding we noticed that the plastic containers were not clean. Then she dumped the old lettuce on top of the new and mixed it up. It was dark & dingy. Yikes, that was our first and last visit. Our party of five had one word for this experience — awful!

Went to a wedding here a few months ago. Beautiful wedding, great band that came with the venue. The location was beautiful outside with the field, porch and river flowing by. However, the inside seemed a bit dated and was pretty dark. I remember the bathroom wreaking when I walked in [which isn’t necessarily anyones fault other then someone who went boom boom in there], and you’d think they’d try to prevent a stench a bit. But food was mediocre, pigs in a blanket were dope. Thats about it!

It’s a nice affordable place
