Review of The Press Gang Restaurant

Beautiful historic building.

Beautiful historic building.

Great history. Romantic inviting. The food is exemplerary as is the impeccable service. Amazing selection of oysters with freshly grated horseradish and traditional minuette. The charcuterie tray has great variety and is artfully presented. Lovely cocktail selection. Halibut and risotto....winner winner and the seafood and risotto is equally good. The French fries with the works is delicious but steeply priced at 32.00...
Folks...they are French fries with gravy peas cranberry sauce some cheese curd and stuffing...
How does that justify 32.00? Don't get me wrong now...this is a wonderful restaurant but reviews should be honest. We tried 3 desserts...all were marvelous..

The favourite was the peanut butter .

The other thing I need to mention is that this is property is not handicapped friendly and it will be difficult for anyone with mobility issues....bathrooms are not easily accessible and most certainly cannot accommodate a wheelchair....even someone using a walker would have issues....so....to sum up.

Great atmosphetic historic restaurant with accommodating professional staff - terrific food, cocktails, oysters and ambiance. Entertainment on Fridays and Saturdays.
