Rehearsal Dinner

This year, GoodWood Barbecue Company is catering the Ultimate Utah Wedding rehearsal dinner.

In 1999 two lifetime friends launched the dream and vision of a dinner-house that would revisit the day of owner-operated restaurants. Conceptually the foundations would be – food made fresh from scratch daily, variety and value in a menu centered around the unique style of closed-pit cooking, a team-oriented style of service based on genuineness and sincerely caring, and an environment conducive to family and friends, good conversations and the enjoyment of life.

Thus the vision of Goodwood Barbecue Company was born. As you enjoy your experience know that the owner-oriented individuals are involved daily. Taste the freshness of a product and uniqueness that quality ingredients deliver bite after bite. Feel our appreciation of your patronage through service that is timely, caring and efficient. Mostly though, enjoy the moment. Let our efforts lend themselves to what we hope will be a regular occurrence on your part – the establishing of your “tradition in the making”.

About IKEA

IKEA Draper has been improving the lives of our customers and community in Utah since May 2007. Our store has 310,000 square feet, over 50 room settings, 3 model homes, a supervised play area, a food Bistro and IKEA Restaurant.

To create a better everyday life for the many people. That’s the root of IKEA. It’s not just some sign hanging in an office. It’s our vision; it’s what we’re passionate about, and it influences everything we do.

Every piece of furniture we design and sell has to answer to that criterion: does it make everyday life better? Does it make it easier to have guests? Does it get dinner on the table quicker? Does it make home a little more beautiful? If it doesn’t measure up to our testing, if it can’t handle everyday life, then it doesn’t end up on our shelves.

No matter how great a design, it doesn’t mean anything if people can’t afford it. That’s why we’re always working to lower our prices. We want as many people as possible to be able to have a quality mattress, the right bookshelf, or just a perfect vase, and still have money left for all the other things in life. Because part of creating a better everyday life, is recognizing that there’s more to life than furniture.

Located at:
67 West IKEA Way (next to the I-15 and Bangeter Highway)
Draper, UT 84020
