First Place – D. Rowe’s Restaurant and Bar
1005 Club Village Drive | 573-443-8004
Started by Columbia native David Rowe in 2002, D. Rowe’s is a Columbia staple. D. Rowe’s caters both large and small events, offering six kinds of meat, six sides, and smoked meat by the pound for larger events. They also offer ‘The Back Rowe,’ a private, in-restaurant banquet space for 50 people, and an appetizer buffet or entrees are available. The D. Rowe’s menu was created to attract a wide demographic, from sports fans on the bar side to families on the restaurant side.
Second Place – Hoss’s Market & Rotisserie
1010 Club Village Drive | 573-815-9711
Created in 2002, Hoss’s Market is a full-service, locally owned gourmet market with made-from-scratch catering. They can cater meals from the simple to the complicated — box lunches, hot dinner and luncheon buffets, carving stations, and more, and they’re available for events from weddings to tailgates.
