Venues & Event Spaces in Mount Joy, PA

“We held our company appreciation banquet at The Gathering Place. The food was amazing as always, and the desserts are so delicious. The staff are so friendly, and the venue is clean and well decorated. Highly recommend and look forward to future dinners at The Gathering Place.”

“My husband and I dined in the catacombs tonight, and it was the best experience we’ve had dining in a long time. The tour was quick and full of fun facts. The catacombs themselves are BEAUTIFUL. As for food, He got the Pork Tomahawk which he said was tender and delicious. I got the roasted chicken which I thought was insanely good. The skin was crunchy but the meat was moist and tender. The mashed potatoes were smooth, with little skin in them, and had great flavor. Side note - MAKE THE RESERVATION! The book up quick!!We will 100% be back again, whether to dine in the gardens/upstairs rooms or the catacombs again. 10/10 recommend”

“I JUST ATTENDED A WEDDING AT THIS BEAUTIFUL VENUE,ON DECEMBER 31st. IT WAS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL WEDDING AND RECEPTION,THAT I HAVE EVER ATTENDED AND I'VE ATTENDED MANY WEDDINGS AT A LOT OF VARIOUS VENUES.ESPECIALLY CONSIDERING THIS WEDDING WAS ON SUCH A HIGHLY CELEBRATED DAY AS NEW YEARS EVE! THERE STAFF WAS AWESOME AND HIGHLY ATTENTIVE,AS EVEN THE MAN HOLDING THE DOOR FOR COCKTAIL HOUR WAS THE GENERAL MANAGER, AS I WAS INFORMED OF LATER THAT EVENING. AS THEN WE CONTINUED TO ANOTHER BUILDING FOR THE RECEPTION. WHICH WAS AS STUNNING AS THE PREVIOUS ONE. I DID FEEL THE SEATING WAS ON THE TIGHT SIDE CONSIDERING THERE WERE OVER 200 GUESTS. ALTHOUGH THE STAFF MANAGED AND DEALT WITH THIS VERY PROFESSIONALLY.THE FOOD WAS AMAZING,ALTHOUGH WOULD HAVE LOVED MORE!! EVEN THE D.J. AND SOUND QUALITY WAS EXCELLENT. THEY EVEN HAD A COUNTDOWN TO MIDNIGHT COMPLETE WITH FINGER POPPERS AND STREAMERS. WHICH MADE A HUGE MESS FOR THE STAFF AND YET THEY EVEN HANDLED THIS HUGE MESS GRACIOUSLY AND POLITELY!! THIS EVENT WAS COMPLETE WITH AN AFTER PARTY THAT BEGAN AN HOUR AFTER THE RECEPTION ENDED..WHEN THE AFTER PARTY WAS ABOUT TO BEGIN ,WE WERE LEAD DOWNSTAIRS TO THE FIRESIDE LODGE,WHICH THE STAFF WORKED DILIGENTILY TO HAVE CLEANED AND READY TO GO WITHIN THAT HOUR..THERE WAS SOME CONFUSION AROUND THE BAR AS I SAW SOME GUESTS ENTER BEHIND THE BAR AND PROCEED TO HAND OUT BEER TO OTHER GUESTS. SO WHEN THE BARTENDER RETURNS TO FIND GUESTS BEHIND HER BAR. THEY WERE TOLD TO GET OUT FROM BEHIND THE BAR AS THIS IS A BIG VIOLATION FOR THEM! WHICH DID CAUSE THE BARTENDER TO BE VERY UPSET,WHICH IS UNDERSTANDABLE. AS ANOTHER STAFF MEMBER THEN PROCEEDED TO SHUT DOWN THE BAR AND FIND THE BRIDE AND GROOM,TO DISCUSS THE SITUATION. WHICH WAS AGAIN HANDLED WITH WHAT I FELT WAS EXTREME PROFESSIONALISM.SO IN MY OPINION I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS VENUE FOR ANY EVENT AT ANY TIME OF THE YEAR. THIS PLACE AND STAFF DESERVE A LOT OF PRAISE FOR THE WAY THEY HANDLED WHATEVER SITUATION CAME THEIR WAY!!!!! FROM A VERY PLEASED GUEST”
