The kitchen
You may know us as Apple Wood Café.
From 2012 to 2023 we ran Apple Wood Café & Catering in Williamsville. Over eleven years we catered thousands of events across Western New York — from ten-person rehearsal dinners to 200-guest weddings.
We outgrew that space for catering demand and moved the kitchen to Orchard Park, where it lives today inside The Mansard. Same owners. Same chef. Same kitchen team. Bigger room, better facilities.
