The Cook and The Drummer were awesome! The food was delicious and the service and staff where definitely all 5 stars! They made our son's wedding an exceptional success and everyone who attended gave rave reviews! I cannot thank them all enough!

The Cook and the Drummer recently catered the memorial service for my late partner, and they did a more than splendid job. The food was abundant and great and the staff were all very personable. It was easy to interact with their representatives in preparation for the event, and they guided me through the process effortlessly. I was most especially grateful for the personal touches, like the cake decoration, which were specifically appropriate to my late partner. I highly recommend them.

Amazing food and service! I ordered the fajita bar catering for a bachelorette party and everyone was raving about how good it was! Definitely recommend!

The Cook and The Drummer SAVED my husband and me when our original caterer cancelled two weeks before our wedding. They were able to recreate our original menu, which was incredible considering it was such short notice. They were easy to communicate with and the staff was kind and professional day-of. Our guests still talk about how good the roasted cauliflower was. Thank you a thousand times over! We should have hired The Cook and The Dummer from the beginning!!

Cook & Drummer was one of the best decisions we made for wedding in Sonoma! Lisa, Kevin, and the entire staff were so lovely both day-of and the days leading up to our wedding. The food was delicious, creative, and fresh. The culinary team cut no corners - our guests even commented how good the focaccia bread and kids meals and were!Lisa and the team were so thoughtful. We had a couple guests who couldn't make it last minute. The team offered to pack their meals for us to take home, as well as a batch of freshly baked focaccia bread. We were busy taking photos and talking to guests during cocktail hour, and the team prepared a tray of au d'oeuvres for us.We also ordered a small cake + sheet cake through Cook and Drummer. We honestly weren't expecting much, but it was actually super delicious. Beautiful but not overstated, not too sweet, and with fresh berries.We can't recommend Cook & Drummer enough!

If I could give Kevin and Lisa 10 stars, I would. Working with them while planning our wedding was a breeze. They were responsive, open-minded, helpful, creative, and nothing short of professional.Everyone at our wedding was blown away by the quality of the food. From the appetizers to the mains, everything was incredible. Their staff was impressive and equally helpful. We are so glad that we used them for our big day and couldn't recommend them more!

Lisa put together an amazing dinner at Square Peg winery for my wife's 50th birthday. The food absolutely just melted in you mouth. We had to move plans around multiple times and Lisa worked her tail off to make sure we were taken care of. It was the best experience possible.

Lisa and her crew did an outstanding job at our daughter’s wedding last weekend at The Villa Chanticleer. The food couldn’t have been better and the service was superb, even with 180 people. She gets a Five Star from us!! Highly recommend her!!

Lisa and her team did a fabulous job for our daughter's wedding this past weekend. The food was amazing! We received so many compliments. It's not easy preparing roasted salmon to remain as fresh, moist and flavorful for almost 100 guests. The staff was very attentive and kept our glasses filled and I know some people went back for seconds. I missed getting a second helping of Potatoes Dauphinois - a bit hit! I'm still waiting on more photos but did get some dessert shots from a friend. We were beyond pleased with the service and quality of the food. Everything was perfect!
We just had our wedding in Sebastopol and Lisa and her team were truly amazing. The food was the best and their professionalism and ability to carry out or vision for the evening was impeccable. We would highly recommend using them for your catering events but also specifically for your wedding day. Her team (Captain Kristin and the rest) worked behind the scenes effortlessly and it just was a great experience for everyone including all of our guests. I can't say enough how much we loved our food and how much our guests raved about it as well.

Lisa did an amazing job on a last minute whim for us. She helped make our night super special by cooking an amazing meal that everyone loved after our wedding. I highly recommend her!
Greg Benson
Had a really great experience with Kevin, serving a meal for a birthday dinner with 16 people. Lots of great comments on the food, and his setup and prep was great. We had the California menu and there was no bad dish.I'd read other reviews that had issue with the food not being fully prepared, so I discussed this with Kevin and we did need to pay an additional fee for setup - totall worth it.
Andrea Meyer
Very impressed with the entire experience: professional and personable, clear and organized and delicious food, perfectly suited to our occasion. Thanks very much!

The Cook and The Drummer are phenomenal-- we recently had them cater our wedding of 110 guests and could not be happier with our choice! We have not stopped receiving compliments about the food! Service, quality of ingredients, presentation, professionalism, availability & response time, food execution, and cost were are all exceptional. In considering how many Sonoma County options one has to chose from when looking to cater an event or wedding, the Cook and the Drummer are a clear an obvious first choice, as they offer nothing short of perfection. Every detail was thoughtfully considered and personalized. Every staff member professional and courteous. If you you are looking for food and music in Sonoma county, The Cook and the Drummer will provide only very best! Would hire again without hesitation!
