Overall, it was not memorable. Just Meh! Our server was adorable. Kind and friendly. We had a 12 o clock sitting and everything felt picked over. Just got a tiny bit of brisket. Went back for more and was told 20 to 30 minutes more! Unheard of! Felt like they were telling us to go eat more salad ! Fill up on the cheap stuff. We won’t be back.

Nice view of the garden from our table at the back of the lodge. The menu is different than the items shown on the Website. Our choices were still enjoyable and well presented. All staff encounters were excellent. the noise level was more like a pub than a dining room. I guess that's because folks were enjoying themselves. Would go again no question.

Excellent food, beautifully presented by an attentive and welcoming wait team. Annabel was excellent and we enjoyed learning about her. There were men in the bar speaking loudly which made it hard for me to hear some of our table conversation on the patio. When I requested patio seating in advance I thought there would be a view of the lake - sadly no. We peeked in the dining room later - even there it’s hard to see the lake. I guess the trees that block the view are not on your property? Overall it was lovely and worth a return trip another time, for a special occasion.
