“I had breakfast here yesterday. It was my first visit. The atmosphere is lovely. More importantly, the waitress we had was very upbeat and really seemed to enjoy her job. She was always right there to see if we needed anything, refill our cups, take away it plates, etc. The food was very good and plentiful. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone and I will be c definitely returning even though it's 35 minutes from my home. It's worth the drive.“

“A true gem when you're craving something homemade. 💗 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“I added in this place to google because I am not a golfer and can't really say how well Black Ledge is as a golf course. However, I eat at the restaurant all the time here when I am in Connecticut. The food is excellent, especially the clam chowder and chicken tenders. A lot of times, bands will play on Saturdays, so you will need a reservation on those days. The staff here is very nice, especially the waitresses. Inside, it is very clean and has televisions. There is a bar and plenty of seating for the restaurant. The owner has been nice to me ever since I have gone here, and he's a really good guy overall. I will try to add some pictures next time I go!“

“The food was amazing!!! The service was quick and our server was fantastic!!! Thanks Kelly for the best first-time Tavern experience.

And your smoked old-fashioned was “smokin’!!!!” 😉 Our overall dining experience was wonderful. We highly recommend!!“

“A local and area gem that's not to be overlooked!

Six years later, absolutely thrilled to see how welcoming and phenomenal everything remains.

I did want to update my review after seeing there being a complaint about the prices of food. Seeing how *consistent* their prices are is remarkable, and above and beyond that the value is particularly noteworthy.

Altogether from the quality (and *portions*) of the food, to the amazing staff, definitely a place to come to and make a regular stop.“
