We just enjoyed the 11/2/2023 Fall Friendsgiving Dinner and wow: this was an AWESOME experience!Basically, it's a large-capacity family-style dinner best experienced with friends (you get the full table) or solo/couples (to meet new folks). We were surprised, as at least 150 people were there.I would have given 5 stars minus the following issues:1) They ran out of wine during the "Open Bar," which is disingenuous since it's free beer, but cash/credit for wine and one cocktail option. Better learn to like beer or it'll cost more and some folks had so.many.glasses of wine... maybe they should max folks out at 2 glasses before dinner?2) Water tastes like egg/sulfur. Bottled/filtered water is a must and how they've served it this long?- who knows! 3) Charcuterie/grazing station was a MESS because there were 6 tongs when they needed at least 15. Really strange that this standard issue was missed and people picking with their hands is not acceptable.4) Finally, there's the STUNNING amount of food waste here(!!!) So much food is served and NONE of it can be taken home (we were told "not allowed due to the outdoor nature of this food service.") One table brought their own doggie bags (geniuses!) while otherwise, we saw massive amounts of uneaten food from the serving bowls get dumped. The food here was DELICIOUS, so watching it all go in the trash was depressing. (It may be the law and laws are really stupid sometimes.)Otherwise, LOVE this and will do it again in the Summer! Hopefully they'll tighten up the loose ends.

Pizza night review 9.6.23They oversell these events and cannot make enough pizzas in the allotted timeframe of 5-8.We ordered upon arrival at 535. At 730 there were 19 pizzas ahead of us. At 750 we had to leave as our kids were hungry and tired. I asked if we could get a refund and was told no by the young lady working the bar. Buyer beware.Difficult to manage with kids but if you have several hours to wait for mediocre pizzas then this is for you.On a side note the band and magician were great.

Great farm. Came here for a wedding. Food was okay, definitely could be better. Staff was very nice and friendly. Beer is cold.

This review is based on the many interactions over the years with the farm. The produce continues to be great so would give that a much higher score (5) and highly recommend, but averaging out amongst other interactions. A Wedding we attended there was fun and no complaints. The biggest move downward on this rating is the quality of the dinners at the farm. I think the first 2-3 dinners we attended years ago were incredible, the food was awesome, ambiance was amazing, drinks good, and service was decent. We were always excited to book another one. Since then, while the dinners are always fun because of the atmosphere, several things have taken a step back:-The food is simply not as good as it used to be, and at a recent cocktail dinner, it was almost all crawfish instead of an even mix of crawfish, crab, sausage so feels like it is getting overall cheaper, but not reflected in the ticket cost. It also felt even more vegetable forward in the past which really highlighted the farm and some of that feels lost. -As for the drinks, the beer dinners are always good. The cocktails at the cocktail dinners unfortunately have not been good, at all. When you pay $100 a person at a "Cocktail Dinner" you expect them to be good. One time there was 6 of them and all were below average to bad. Again, this wasn't the case in the past. Certainly not worth $100 a head when you have so many other options in the area. -Service is hit or miss but feels like it also wasn't as good as it used to be. All in all I hope this feedback helps them return to where it once was and I can come back with a 5 star review, rather then having to even consider if its worth going back.

Where to begin...My fiancé and I fell in love with this venue and saw our special day being there. Had decided to get a contract and get our date locked in. They have a 3 day window for holding the date when you get the contract.Sunday was sent the wedding contract, with Wednesday being the day we need everything signed and paid for. Ok no worries.Reading the contract Monday we had a question about the contract. Tuesday morning called the venue to speak with Liz the event coordinator, she was out of office and our question could not be answered. Ok, so we email them Wednesday, promptly getting an email back with Liz saying "You booking deposit needs to be paid when you return the signed contract. I know you're contract is due today so just get it in the mail as soon as possible. I will send you a confirmation when it arrives in the mail. Yes, all deposits are $2500."An hour later we receive ANOTHER email saying "another couple in interested in the date and our deposit needs to be paid today"Today was Yom Kippur so guess what? We couldn't drive out there and hand them a check. After calling HPF MULTIPLE TIMES and emailing them to run our card which incurs a 3% fee. we do not hear back from HPF. Called and got someone on the phone and they said Liz was busy (sounds like a story of "we got more money from this other couple")After 6pm we receive an email from HOF saying they decided to not continue with the contract and our date was released to the other couple.Not only did HPF breach their signed contract that says a signed contract and deposit (which we authorized) is all that was needed. They also caused us to miss out on different venues.STAY AWAY. EXTREMELY UNPROFESSIONAL BEHAVIOR.

We loved everything, the tent was set up beautifully and if you wanted to walk outside for a bit there is wonderful little seating areas all.around.You can catch a sunset over the fields, fire pit to sit around after dark, even caught a shooting star while sitting under the stars !Yup beautiful place ????

I had my wedding at Heritage Prairie Farm. I booked my wedding in 2019 for a 2020 wedding but ended up having it in 2022 due to Covid. The wedding planning process was really nice and easy. We had Liz at the start then switched to Kara. They both were wonderful and really quick with responses which we were so appreciative of!! The day of the wedding we got ready at the farm house and Kiki was great help keeping everything running smoothly. Our food was incredible and we are so thankful for chef!! We asked for a few things to be gluten free and he was very accommodating. We are so appreciative of everyone behind the scenes the day of too and made sure to thank them during our speech. Everything ran smoothly and looked perfect.I would have given 5 stars but we did have some communication issues with Jessica (the GM) that were extremely disappointing. We made it clear from the start that we couldn't have the outdoor cats around because my dad is very allergic. We were reassured many times from our coordinators we would not have to worry and even told on our tour they could be kept away. The day before the wedding we had our rehearsal and I reminded our coordinator when I saw the cats with us in the barn and my dad who was allergic. Jessica sent me an email THE DAY BEFORE saying that it is "inhuman" to keep the outdoor cats inside. We had no issues keeping the cats away for two years so it was really sad the day before how it had flipped and became an issue. Thankfully we only saw the cats later in the evening.Overall our experience was amazing and our wedding was perfect due to all our incredible vendors!! I would recommend the farm and Liz and Kara are awesome to work with. :)

Sadly disappointed with this Venue. We had to cancel our wedding and we’re hoping to put our money we had paid them for our wedding towards a family friend of ours and they wouldn’t do that for us. So now we have paid them for absolutely no reason. Super disappointing. Life happens, and it’s truly sad they weren’t able to take that money and use it towards helping another.

My daughter and son-in-law had their wedding here on 5/14/21 and I cannot stop thinking about it. The venue was amazing, the coordinator was hardworking and friendly, and the staff was excellent. Not a detail was missed from the moment the bridal party arrived, until the last guest left. From start to finish we felt cared for. The ready rooms for both the men and women were well stocked with drinks, safety pins, breath mints, etc. Anything needed was handy (like scissors and needle and thread!). Our friends and family marveled over the touches like mason jars, eclectic dishes and spots to take pictures. The coordinator ran the event and also went with the flow, she was perfect for our couple that kept dissappearing to be present with guests. The food was spectacular too! I cannot recommend Heritage Prairie Farm enough.
