"The venue set up nicely for our birthday party. We had it catered and 65 people in attendance. Scott was very helpful in getting slide show going and showing us how to use microphones etc. Staff were very helpful and were easy to work with. The only glitch was information on getting 1 day liquor license. You could need to start doing that a month to 6 weeks in advance, instead of the 2 weeks we were told.

Not just from the owner but from people from the town. Chad and his wife were superb hosts. We immediately struck up a conversation and we're able to chat about similar interests. The raspberry and pineapple frozen yogurt mix was divine. My husband had the banana and vanilla mix which was his favorite..."

"I recently attended a Christmas Party at Garther on 89, catered by Sandie Truchot, and it was a truly fantastic experience! The venue itself is beautifully designed, providing the perfect festive atmosphere for the event. The space was comfortable, elegant, and well-suited to the group. The food, prepared by Sandie and her team was absolutely fabulous! Every dish was flavorful and beautifully presented. I highly recommend Garther on 89 and Sandie Truchot for any event — you won’t be disappointed!"
