In-House Culinary

Cuisine Worth Celebrating

Spoil your guests with cuisine they'll be raving about for years. Our in-house culinary team creates award-winning menus tailored to your taste.

Our Culinary Philosophy

Our bridal consultants work cohesively with our Executive Chef to create an exquisite menu that complements your vision — from tantalizing hors d'oeuvres and refreshing cocktails to scrumptious main courses and delectable desserts.

Everything is prepared fresh, on-site, with seasonal New England ingredients. No outside caterers, no delivery trucks, no surprises. Our chef knows the kitchen, the timing, and the flow — and has been perfecting it for 29 years.

Recognized for superb service and outstanding cuisine, The Commons 1854 gives your guests a VIP experience from the first bite to the last dance.
