Brennan’s Catering & Banquet Center

Came here for the Hanchar/​Russo wedding reception. Had a blast! Plenty of parking and the bartenders were quick with the drinks! This was a big drinking crowd so they even had 2 bars open with Great Lakes beer and plenty of boose. Its tucked away in a quiet Cleveland neighborhood so noone minds if ya sneak away to your car to fool around with the grooms grandma!

I believe my wedding was a bit of an anomaly. We had zero issue with anyone we used, and I attribute a lot of that to Unilocal!as well as a few other sources we used.
When selecting Brennan’s to be our caterer and party center, it was a no-​brainer. Our families had been intertwined for years, as most Lakewood-​dwelling families seem to be. My Grandmother S. knew one of the Grandparents B., who was friends with Great Uncle S., and who played bridge and cribbage with Great Uncle B. Or, something.
From the first moment we contacted the folks at Brennan’s, they were excited for us. They wanted us to have the best wedding possible, and they helped deliver it. When we didn’t know our room count, but estimated it could be in the two hundreds, they said «Okay. You can have the big room.» When we didn’t know about alcohol or a DJ, or flowers, they gave us names and numbers. They didn’t press anyone on us, simply stating that people liked these DeeJay, and also liked these flowers.
When it came to the reception, no one assumed anything. Each guest’s question was then asked of us by our fantastic host, Jason. He made sure we were comfortable, that our guests had everything, and that when it came time to clean up, we had a crew of folks there to assist, so that the exhausted bride and groom could go and sleep off a wonderful night.
As far as the food? Fantastic. Our menu was: Roast Beef, Chicken Marsala, Corn O’Brien, Rigatoni with Marinara, Oven Roasted Red-​Skinned Potatoes, Salad, Rolls, Butter, Desert Tray, Cheese Tray and chips and pretzels at the bar (I mean, what are we? Savages? of course not!) Everything was warm, tasty, and well seasoned. Very few people had a complaint and those that did are chronic complainers anyway.
Accoustically, the venue was great. While our song played for our first dance, no one had any clue my bride and I were making fun of our friends and family because the music was just loud enough and echoed just enough!
I’m happy we chose Brennans, and if I could give a half star, I would. If you’re on the west side of Cleveland, consider Brennan’s. It doesn’t have the curb appeal of some of the newer spots in Westlake or Avon, but trust me: What they lack on the outside, they more than make up for on the inside. Let them cater your event. You won’t be sorry.
