About the restaurant

Dining at The Old Inn on the Green is an extraordinary experience: fine wine, great food, attentive, knowledgeable service and the dining rooms illuminated only by candle light. Chef and Owner Peter Platt, along with his team, work to create innovative and memorable meals that are an event unto themselves. Currently, we are offering a $85 prix fixe menu with 5-6 choices per course every night we are open. The hours for dinner are Wednesday through Sunday 5:30 pm to 9:00 pm for both indoors and in an all new screened outdoor room. The wine list is graced with an array of thoughtfully selected estate bottled wines from France, California, Italy and around the world. In addition to candlelight, in the colder months there are wood burning fireplaces in each room. A copy of our current menu can be found on the home page of our website www.oldinn.com.

As always, Tuckers never disappoints! Service always positive and professional. Quiet table, as requested. Food always delicious! Try the Mediterranean pasta with chicken…each flavor stands out but melds together for a great taste. large portions too and able to get a small Caesar salad as well. The coconut chicken special was yummy and the mixed drinks are always perfectly crafted. Nice, full pour on the wines too. Our favorite place to dine in the area.

Outstanding service! The waitress made so many suggestions and the food was incredible! Fresh, delicious and beautifully presented! I can’t wait to go back- we ate the two appetizer specials: tomatoes with stracciatella, pesto, balsamic reduction and fried salami on top, Big Mac egg rolls, then the Brussels sprouts and maple bourbon dry rub wings. Our entree was the pork chop parmigiana- everything was delectable! Highly recommend!

Food and service is very good. But the presentation and extras on plate like potatoes and vegetables change. So if you were looking for the same each time you go, it won’t be.
