Absolutely the worst customer service we’ve ever experienced. Took 20 minutes to get coffee, had to ask three times for OJ, went up to buffet to check out & hostess thought I was going to take food! Took 40 minutes for the food to come out, my friend’s order was wrong, after waiting for 20 minutes for her correct order, my food was cold. Took 25 minutes for check!! Never ever would I go back. It was shockingly disappointing!

I had made a reservation for High Tea at this establishment to celebrate a special occasion. Less than one week prior to the reservation, I received an email informing me that it had been cancelled without prior consultation or notice. Upon calling the restaurant, they were unable to explain why the High Tea was cancelled for that day and did not offer any rectification beyond a new reservation for a different day. This is hugely disappointing coming from such a highly rated business.

We had an amazing brunch at Town Meeting Bistro! The food was absolutely delicious. The menu had a great variety, and every dish we tried was cooked perfectly. The atmosphere was charming and relaxed, making it the perfect spot for a weekend brunch.

Beautiful setting and food was delicious. Only 4 stars because food took a while and was a bit overpriced for what it was

This is the perfect place to eat if you prefer quality over quantity. Food and ambiance was just right, and staff was very friendly. We had a great time celebrating my birthday with family. My son was happy there was a kids menu, which was creatively presented on a wooden sailboat! Thank you!

Very pricy spot for lunch, but the service and the food was worth every penny. French press coffee made it fancy.

The inn is spectacular. But the restaurant needs improvement as well as food.

If you like waiting a very long time for very mediocre food that's over priced, you are in for a treat!

I am genuinely confused by the good reviews on here.

First, you walk in to... empty rooms... and a desk with a phone number to call. We ended up finding the restuarant in the back.

Second, the service was terrible. Servers themselves are very nice, but it took 30 minutes after drinks for them to take our dinner order. We were one of four tables... in the entire place.

Third, the menu was tiny compared to what was listed online.

Fourth, they brought bread that is incredibly stale. Like rock hard focaccia bread. I stupidly took a bite, thinking, it can't be right. Stale. Dry. Wrong. We started with the clam chowder, which I do not recommend if you actually like clam chowder. If you like bland soup with chunks of veggies and bits of clam, then this is for you. I got the burger and fries because they didnt have hanger steak, burratini, lamb, flounder, or duck. The burger was just fine. Nothing crazy, just a regular burger that you can over cook at home. Over priced for nothing special burger. My partner got the char. He said it was good. I tried it and, again, it was just regular. Nothing special. Very disappointing meal all around. Most of the menu is reduced down to a few things.

I am giving two stars, because its clean and the servers were nice... when they were there.

Really great vibe, and lovely staff. A few downsides: we were the only people outside and it seemed like they forgot about us (no one took our order for 20-30 mins), the food was only okay (corned beef hash was really salty), our coffee drink orders were messed up (though they tasted good when we eventually got them!), and they had to ask us to leave after 1.5 hours to allow another party to be seated, which was understandable but ruined the vibe a bit. Overall it was pleasant but we would have been better off going to someplace like tatte for the 2 hour casual catchup that we were hoping for.

The food in general was amazing. But the star of our breakfast meal was the pancakes. Top notch!

Went for Easter Brunch. Place was nice. Cocktails were good. Food, however was just okay. Dessert options were lacking, actually went out after for dessert. Was buffet style apps then main from the menu... Very basic Benedict, 5 people at the table got a version and only 1 finished their plate. English muffin over toasted and tough to cut...but flavor wise have tasted similar for far less then $120/ per person. Staff was attentive and nice. Maybe food quality was because it was Easter and crowded but expected more out of it considering the price.

I take delight in reviewing this establishment, housed within the beautiful Inn at Hastings Park, in Lexington, MA. Service was attentive and thorough coming from a friendly staff from host to the waiters. The ambiance is modern, rustic yet beautifully, adorned with old-world charm.

The food, every night, was a delicious delicacy of taste paired to take the pallet on an adventure of flavors. The temperature was perfect with every bite, and the plating and presentation were beautiful. We loved every meal, from salad to dessert.

Thanks to Tricia, the owner, and the team for creating such a beautiful dining experience.
We are sure to return.

Food and service are ok. One dish was fish with spinach and wheat berry and there was practically no spinach in it. Service disappeared at times. Ice cream dessert too so long I got up to ask about it. The room is quite and lovely.
