🌟 Excellent Holiday Party Venue with Great Food and Charm! We recently hosted our organization's holiday party at The Lafayette House this past weekend, and it was a truly fantastic experience from start to finish!
We used their function space, and everything was handled with professionalism. The service was absolutely excellent—the staff was attentive, friendly, and ensured our event ran smoothly.
The food was great and received many compliments from our members. It was definitely a highlight of the evening.
We especially loved the unique atmosphere of the venue. The old, revolutionary-era charm of the building provides such a warm and historic backdrop for any event.
If you are looking for a beautiful and charming venue with great service and delicious food for your next function or special occasion, I highly recommend The Lafayette House!

We went to the Lafayette house for the first time, for Thanksgiving. Everything was delicious! I had all of what they had on the buffet! All of it was awesome! My brother and my wife loved it too! They were quick to refill anything that was low. Lots to choose from! The chicken fricassee was my favorite. The turkey was perfectly cook as well. The staff, as busy as they were, stayed positive and full of smiles!

This place was great, I chose it as I was travelling back down to Connecticut and wanted a nice meal along the way and they really delivered. Besides the great food, the building has ample parking, vintage wood interior, elegance in table setup/cutlery, superb service, live and nice guitarist this specific night, I know if I am ever in the area again I will stop by again. 5/5

This restaurant has been here since the 1800s. That should tell you everything you need to know, but I'll add something. My meal was perfect. I had the filet (perfect medium rare) with the mushroom Cabernet sauce, roasted vegetables and potatoes. Good ambience and more than a full bar.

Food was ok. Service was fine. Atmosphere was minimal. It was a Thursday night at 7 PM, and the place was almost empty. But the real issue was something very strange....
It all started when we were handed the specials menu. We noticed that for each item on the daily specials menu, the pricing had two numbers. There was one price if you paid by cash, and another price if you paid by credit card.
At first, we thought it was a joke, because the regular menu only had one price on there for each item. We had already placed our orders, but figured we'd ask the waitress what the joke was. She sheepishly told us it wasn't a joke and that there was a different price if you paid by credit card. WHAT?!?!?!?!?! I mentioned the regular menu only had one price. She said it was a mistake by the restaurant and they were trying to fix it... but that the regular menu also had a higher price per item if you pay by credit card.
My jaw dropped.
I kindly explained that aside from gas stations (and even that is rare nowadays), I'd never seen another establishment, and definitely NEVER a restaurant... charge more if paying by credit card. We agreed it was not her fault, and she was very nice about it, but but what an embarrassment for the Lafayette House.
I also explained that even if they are doing something that is potentially illegal (yes, only potentially, depending upon how they word it), that having the regular menu NOT show the other pricing was definitely illegal. You can't tell someone their dish will cost $35, and then charge them $37 without them knowing in advance.
Anyways, the poor waitress was certainly patient and calm, and this was not her fault. that being said, the Lafayette House should be ashamed of themselves.... not only charging more if paying by credit card, but also doing it somewhat surreptitiously.
If the food were incredible, or the atmosphere amazing, I'd consider ignoring this rather shady practice..... but it wasn't. Any restaurant that thinks they should try and start the practice of giving a credit card surcharge, is not a restaurant you should go to.

History restaurant with good food and good service. It has an old world feel. The chicken Marsala was very blah but the seafood was great. The stuffed mushroom and bacon wrapped scallops were amazing!
The owners were very,very nice, and it was a very comfy and inviting place! The steak was amazing. If you are in the area, I recommend stopping by here!

I had my 54th Birthday dinner here and it was exceptional! Clams casino were amazing, my surf and turf with the stuffed shrimp that melted in your mouth and the prime rib was cooked perfectly for me and my fiance's dinner!
If you haven't been to this beautiful time capsule of history ambiance and comfortable, tremendous service and drinks you are missing out!!

We decided to stop by here for dinner and chose to sit in the pub rather than the dining room. It was a quiet atmosphere with great service and quite a few specials to choose from. We will return again. There is also a nice outdoor patio for anyone who would like to dine outdoors.
