Sterk's Catering, Inc. - Oberlin

I’ve used Sterks catering twice in the past year and could not be happier. Their food is outstanding and John and Shelly are wonderful to work with. Thank you!

Doesn’t look like much on the outside, but the food is good, relatively inexpensive, with large portions. Can get a bit loud though.

Thinking of using Sterk’s to cater your event? The food is good but their business practices are unprofessional.We used them to carter our daughter’s wedding and were pleased. Purchased trays of food for family events. Decided to use them for a 90th birthday party. Due to COVID we had to cancel 2 months prior to the date. Sterk's would not refund the $400 deposit. Shelly from Sterk's personally told me we could use it another time for an event of the same size, 70 people, not just to order food. No deadline was stipulated. Wanted to use Sterk’s and the $400 deposit for a celebration of life. Was told it was over a year since our original date (remember no deadline given). Per Shelly, she cleared her books after 2 years and used MY deposit to help her business run during COVID. That is THEFT! I work for a small business and we wouldn't NEVER use customer deposits for anything but their order! You would think an astute business person would be happy to accept an order for a pig roast for 70 people at approximately $30.00 each and honor the deposit. Sterk's would still make $1,700. That is a lot more than the zero they will make now. It's too bad. Beware to use this caterer for your events!

Sterk's catered my daughter's wedding and we were so happy with them we decided to use them for a 90th birthday party. Unfortunately the party had to be cancelled because of COVID. Sterk's would not refund our $400 deposit even though we cancelled two months before the event. Shelly told me we could use it another time but it had to be for about the same of people (70) not just by purchasing $400 worth of food. No deadline was stipulated. This year I am planning a celebration of life. I planned to use Sterk's and the $400. However after I set the date with Shelley I was told I couldn't use the deposit because it was over a year since our original event. I told Shelley she never said that because at that time I told her we had no upcoming events that required catering. She told me we could use it whenever we needed it. After she said we only had a year to use it she switched things around and said she took everything off the books after two years. Then she said the money was gone anyway because they used it to keep the business afloat during COVID! I work for a small business too and we never kept customer deposits!! That is theft!!!

We ordered Christmas dinner from Sterks. Very pleased with the quality and quanity of food.Ordered parmesan chicken. It was very moist and delicious.Will be using your service again!
