About The Barn At Boones Dam

Located in the heart of Philadelphia, PA, The Barn At Boones Dam offers a unique blend of rustic charm and modern elegance

Our venue is the perfect setting for a wide range of events, from intimate gatherings to grand celebrations. With a dedicated team and a passion for creating unforgettable experiences, we strive to make every event at The Barn At Boones Dam truly special.

The Susquehanna Chef has been providing superior catering service to the Susquehanna Valley since 1995. Owners Ruth Kranig and Patrick Burnside have made The Barn at Boones Dam their home base of operations for the steadily growing company. The Barn was purchased in 2008, and the couple quickly went to work transforming the building, which had recently been an art gallery, into the premier catering facility that it has become.

Located at 737 W Fort McClure Blvd in Bloomsburg, the property provides privacy and seclusion for its guests, but is only a few minutes away from hotels and downtown Bloomsburg. The Barn features a huge second-story deck that wraps around half the building, providing a wonderful space for guests during the warmer months. During the winter, half the deck can become enclosed and heated, providing additional guest space for events. The meticulously maintained grounds feature a butterfly garden with gorgeous flowers and a fountain at its center, a koi pond nestled into the hill in front of The Barn, stunning views, and countless locations to provide any couple with an amazing wedding album.

The Barn At Boones Dam is available year-round and is fully heated and air-conditioned. It can accommodate 150 seated guests, 250 for a cocktail reception, or up to 350 with a tent. Patrick is the Susquehanna Chef’s Executive Chef and also a CIA graduate. He and Ruth work together to keep the menu options current with the trends while also providing the classics that people have come to love. Ruth and Patrick are also the owners of Rose Marie’s Restaurant, located at 26 E Rear Main Street in Bloomsburg. The restaurant specializes in Northern Italian cuisine and features a stone hearth oven where all of the pizzas, specialty sandwiches, and delicious focaccia bread are baked made to order.

The restaurant is open 11am-11pm every day, and reservations are recommended.

What Our Clients Have To Say

My wife and I cannot begin to thank Ruth and her staff enough for the perfect day they gave us. The venue was pristine, and every detail we discussed with Ruth prior to the fact went off so smoothly. The food is AMAZING. Ruth's communication, calm demeanor, and experience helped my wife and I get through any stress we felt, and we will always be grateful for the memories they gave us!

Luke S

Ruth and her staff went above and beyond to make sure everything at the wedding was great. The food and cake were delicious. All of her staff were friendly and helpful. The barn looked beautiful. I highly recommend the Barn at Boones Dam!

Gavin B

Bride here! We had our rehearsal dinner as well as our wedding ceremony and reception all at the venue location and we could not have been more pleased with the accommodation's and overall outcome of all events! The owner Ruth and her husband are not only both chefs, but Ruth was awesome to work with, especially if you appreciate someone who is able to keep the show running smoothly while the Bride slightly delays the ceremony due to a small panic attack! Her and the staff took incredible care of myself/Groom, both Bride/Groom parties and all of the guests through all 3 events! Planning was a breeze and she truly makes your vision come to life! The best part about this venue is that it’s already gorgeous as is, and we felt that we did not have to focus heavily on additional decor; Ruth worked with us closely to ensure our theme and colors perfectly tied together with the natural beauty of the venue; I felt so comfortable with Ruth that I gave her full reigns on any additional decor we brought, for her to place where it looked best, and she delivered flawlessly. We continue to received tons of compliments on the food, dessert, venue, overall service and more! Highly recommend as a venue that adapts to all your needs and brings your vision to life!

Ruth and the whole team at Barn at Boone’s Dam were amazing! Whether is was deciding what wedding package to get, to keeping the Groomsmen on their best behavior, Ruth was open and willing to make all our wishes come true. Of course, my favorite part of the whole experience was the food! From appetizers to the cupcakes, we could not have been more pleased. The very very best part was the service between ceremony and reception. While our guests enjoyed cocktail hour, and we took pictures, Ruth’s staff made sure our bridal suite was filled with appetizers and drinks, truly making this the BEST DAY EVER. Thank you to everyone who made it so perfect!!!
