Cool old building. Mediocre food for the price in my opinion. More of a touristy thing than anything else. Appetizer was cold and dinner itself was bland. Definitely not worth the money.

Totally enjoyed our meal last night. Wes was a great server- kept our water glasses full. We split a crab cake appetizer- one of the best we’ve had. Had a cup of rich fish chowder. Then shared an entree of potato encrusted haddock. Light and flavorful with red potatoes and grilled veggies. We split a Boston Cream pie for dessert. We had reservations and were seated quickly and our food was prompt. A great evening!

Fair to good, food was good but expensive, beer wasn’t very cold. I would go back, we were in a hurry so I would like to take time to see more of the building & history...

Once you get past the corse greeter get to the bar and enjoy service from Cris. Ya can stay in the bar and enjoy your regular dinner without the headache of the dining room Don’t be discouraged by being told of a 45 min wait-just go see Cris and he will make your dining experience exceptional!
