“Haven't been there in years. Decided to go there this evening for St. Patrick's Day. All I can say is that there was no room for disappointment. The food was great and their staff was great as well. Not one ounce of disappointment. I've heard of their great reviews and I have to agree with every one of them. We will certainly be going back. BTW, the atmosphere was great as well!“

“What a great gem we stumbled across on Rte. 12. - Tripp's Treehouse. They offer a great lunch menu and amazing Bloody Mary's. It was a rainy, dreary day when we went there but they have lots of outdoor activities to enjoy in good weather. Of course, the bestest highlight is the actual giant tree growing in the bar up through the roof.“

The atmosphere was just right — perfect lighting, comfortable vibe, and a great setting whether you’re there for a date night or dinner with friends. You can tell they put thought into every detail.

Highly recommend. I’ll definitely be back.“
