Excellent food at a very reasonable price. We had dinner here twice and breakfast while staying at the hotel and every dish has been exceptional.
Unfortunately I would not recommend Caroline's, been here a couple times and both times were not good experiences but this last one definitely will not have me coming back. Made reservations for Easter at 1:00pm for our family of 11 (4kids), everyone ordered a drink and she took our order right away - an hour and 20 minutes later no food yet, ask the nice waitress how much longer, she informed us there were 3 small orders and 1 large order ahead of ours yet. Keep in might we made...read full review
Had Easter reservations at 1pm. Took 25 minutes to get our drinks/refills… and after sitting for an hour and a half…. We paid for our drinks and left. They didn’t even offer an apology! That was my first time there and definitely my last!!!!!!!

Caroline's Restaurant provides a pleasant dining experience with good food and attentive service. The menu includes local Verena Street coffee, biscuits and gravy, and a popular white bean chicken chili. The food is generally enjoyable, with standout dishes such as the Scottish salmon filet with risotto and green beans, and chicken and sausage penne. The white bean chicken chili has impressed many customers with its rich, creamy, spicy, and lime flavors, making it a dish that diners often wish to replicate at home. The coffee is often described as divine, although coffee flights have been inconsistent at times, with some arriving cold.
The restaurant itself is very comfortable and inviting, creating a cozy atmosphere that makes guests feel at home and at ease. Customers appreciate the calm environment, free from hustle and bustle, screaming kids, or noise under tables. Service can sometimes be a bit slow, but there are moments when the staff truly shines. One server, Holly, was particularly helpful, knowledgeable, attentive, prompt, and friendly, adding to the positive experience. The food, including eggs Benedict, chorizo omelette, veggie omelette, and zucchini quinoa bowl, is often praised for its quality and generous portions. The cappuccinos brewed by Caroline's superb barista are especially recommended and are considered over-the-top delicious. Overall, Caroline's Restaurant remains a charming spot for gracious dining in a lovely old hotel, perfect for small groups, family gatherings, or intimate meals.
