This is an amazing piece of New England history. There has been food and beverage service at this location for 300 years, since the original home owner received a permit to operate a tavern attached to his home. The USA is just 241 years old! The food served includes many hearty dishes, such as beef stew. I cannot comment on anything except the prime rib, which both I and my companion both ate. We were at the Inn on Father's day, and the place was very busy. However busy it was, our waitress, Vickie, was very attentive. The food was delicious. The dark beamed ceilings of the dining room we were in certainly evoked the feeling of an old roadside inn. The outside country setting and nearby water wheel completed the the perfect picture.
