    Went to lunch with my daughter on a Saturday afternoon. Sat by the fireplace which was great since it was chilly out! Our waitress was very attentive. We had awesome appetizers, especially the warm feta whip with the pine nuts, the nachos with it were crunchy and fresh. I got the haddock sandwich which was delicious and she got an amazing salad with the homemade dressing. She also loved their clam chowder. The drinks were great! We were going to share 1 of their desserts but they ran out of the one we wanted. We will definitely be back in the summer 👍🌞

    Had an inventive and interesting entree -- salmon with rhubarb chutney on carrot-beet-edamame hash. Excellent.

    Lovely old inn with cozy atmosphere and excellent pub food. Service was good. Would like to try again in warmer weather to eat in the porch.

    Great Tavern atmosphere but can be difficult at times to hear the people at your own table. The menu is limited but the food is very good. The wines are limited but what I did order was very good. I would recommend and would go back.

    A 225 y.o. beautiful old country Inn with a delightful ambiance. The quality of the food was disappointing. The asparagus was overcooked and woody which I could not eat. So I ordered a side of spinach. It tasted like it had four tablespoons of salt on it. I couldn't eat that either. I grudgingly told the waitress. She claimed she would take the cost of the spinach off the Bill but by then the meal was ruined. This is very upsetting when you take guests out for a treat.
