First the setting at Christmas time was outstanding. Unfortunately, there was a very long wait for food to arrive. Once we got our wine drinks, my glass was drity. It was replaced, but there was no discount in the bill as would have happened at other high-class restaurants. It took two hours to get our meals. They said they were understaffed that night (12/26/2024). Overall, my wife and I did have a good time. We stayed at the Roycroft Inn and found that the room was very nice.

By a cheesey bar in the best room in the inn the owners have changed the ambience of the restaurant and not for the better.

Disappointing Experience at the Roycroft Inn We were excited to enjoy a festive holiday girls’ dinner at the Roycroft Inn, expecting beautiful decor, great food, and a special evening. Unfortunately, the experience fell far short of expectations. The entire meal took nearly two hours, primarily due to painfully slow service. Both our drinks and food took an unreasonably long time to arrive, and our waiter was rarely at our table except to offer repeated excuses for the delays. To make matters worse, my friend’s leftovers sat unboxed on a counter for over 20 minutes until we had to bring it to our waiter’s attention ourselves. By that point, we declined to have it wrapped up. While the setting is lovely, the lack of attentive service left us feeling disappointed and underwhelmed. For a restaurant of this reputation, we expected much better.
