    I took my daughter for lunch at the Tap Room for her birthday. There was a Happy Birthday sign sitting on our table when we arrived. The waitress acknowledged her birthday, and we received a free round of drinks. All in all, it was a wonderful lunch!

    Father’s day Brunch was good, could have been better. I had been to brunch at Hotel B a couple of years back & it was excellent. This time it seemed they were sorely under prepared for the volume. Many chaffing dishes were empty & not filled promptly. Omelette line too long to wait. No parking available on sight due to construction, so had to park & take a shuttle. Would have been nice to have an advanced warning about that.

    it was" only" breakfast, but it was delicious, well-prepared, and presented! We both ordered the French toast. It was very light, perfection really, served with individual ramekins of creamy butter, whipped cream, and a small pitcher of maple syrup. A side of fresh berries finished the plate. The service was friendly, quick, and solicitous. All in all, a lovely experience that felt special, even though it was "only" breakfast.

    Worst dining experience we have ever had! We made reservations weeks in advance for dinner after a baccalaureate service at a church nearby. My husband and I brought our mothers here to celebrate their grandson's high school graduation. Our reservation was originally for 7 people, thankfully 3 couldn't attend last minute because that would have made things even worse. Horrendous service...communicated with hostess/host, several waiters and manager numerous times over the course of the evening due to lack of service. Commiserated with another diner at one point who was experiencing similar issues. Took nearly two hours to get entrees and 3 came first for a party of 4, two of which were room temp at best. Fourth entree arrived shortly after which was refused. Disaster! They ended up compensating us for the meal, which was the least they could do. Additionally, the manager was apologetic but was insincere and rude in his delivery.
