Always love Comus Inn! Food is reliability delicious. Service is good but today they had a bike fund raiser and tables outside. We lost our server midway through bc she was helping the outside tables. Someone who I think was prob the mgr stepped in to help but it was noticeable. Please hire more people. Crab toast was awesome as was the duffle pancakes, BLTA, smash burger and eggs Benedict.

For starters, I've eaten here before and the food was and still is excellent. My reason for the poor review this time around is strictly due to the wait staff being unprepared for how busy they would be. To begin, my partner and I were seated on time for our 7:15 PM reservation but the hostess did not carry menus to the table with us. Then after ~25 minutes of no one coming by, I went back to the hostess station to ask for menus. After about five minutes, our waitress brought a bottle of water to the table without glasses, so she returned moments later with pint glasses explaining they were out of the regular ones. Everything after our waitress arrived was timed with their usual pacing. We received our drinks in about ten minutes and food twenty minutes after. The food is worth coming back for. Other experiential things to note for this night is that they left the front door open. That led to the dining area to be uncomfortably chilly. The one bartender was so slammed they didn't have time to mix the cocktails with focus, so the proportions were off. Going back to them being out of glasses, there were multiple empty tables within sight over the duration of our meal that had regular glasses. The whole dinner felt like a test of their customers' patience.

I requested a dining room seating not high top seating. We were seated at a high top table closest to the door which they kept wide open. It was extremely windy and in the low 60's so it was windy and cold where she seated us. I asked if we could be moved or could she close the front door. She simply said, “It's my first day”, and walked away. We sat there and debated whether to stay or leave. There were other tables open away from the front door. We decided to leave so we were never served. Poor customer service on that day.

The atmosphere is...energetic...for an old inn. You'd expect it to be quiet, charming, relaxed...but it is loud and a little frenzied. We enjoyed dinner--the food is pretty good and food pricing is generally fair--but drinks are expensive; bartender was great. They clearly needed more staff as service was slow, although staff were totally pleasant and everyone was hustling hard. Would definitely return but hopefully this was just a one off night as it seemed a little chaotic--hoping next time we visit it won't be.

We were in time to our reservation and we had to wait 15 minutes and we seated on a high top table by the bar with many tables open the hosted response was those are for other reservations, and we had what? A 3:30 pm reservation?? Table was seated at 5 as we were leaving the dining room. A cocktail was ordered and set on the bar for 15 min old fashion ice was all melted. Serves was good she just was covering a lot of space. Not the same place but, beautiful setting

Food was not good. Not cooked properly. Eggs raw Dry English muffins. Only 2 GF options but turned out to be only 1. No refills on coffee but was not told Luke warm pancakes. Over all bad experience at Easter brunch

Jared

Fresh delicious food. Fish was cooked to perfection. Amazing value for the quality of food

Martin

Food was good, though more toward bar fare than fine dining. Wine selection very limited. Service was friendly and attentive, though somewhat in-experienced. View is very pleasant, though overall ambiance a bit cool.

We loved everything...the bar was great, our view of the landscape and sky were great from our table. All the wait staff + management were very friendly. Will definitely go back again. The only thing I would suggest is that the wait staff check in a little more often with the patrons. Really a great experience overall!

We used to absolutely love this place before it changed ownership. Specifically, the beer garden. The atmosphere is still great but there used to be several food options and now the only option is a horrible taco place. Everything we ordered (food wise) was terrible and nothing that the kids would eat. If this is the only option it would be great if you let in outside food. Please make me love this place again!

The outside is the way I remember it but the inside is all modern. No need to dress up anymore. It's very very casual. Love the outside area. Lots of families and people watching the sunset and enjoying the music and the out of doors. Nice relaxing place. A bit noisy in the dining room area. Food was good and service was excellent. I would certainly go back again.

This was my first time dining at Comus Inn. We had reservations for 2 and were seated right away. We each ordered a starter, a main dish, and a dessert and coffee. The food was artfully arranged and delicious. The view of the garden and the mountains in the back added to the evening. The waitress was responsive and professional. We loved it and plan to visit again. I have a small e-newsletter that I sent out about once per month and I plan to do a small article about Comus Inn.

Comus was a mixed bag. The table was old, needed to be sanded or covered with a table cloth or at least a paper cloth. The champagne was served in wine glasses and the Brut's flavor was good but it was flat. We both felt the menu was bit limited. The actual food preparation was excellent and the portion size wonderful (rillete, scotch egg, quail, trout, creme brulee). Comus was good value but the experience was marred by these mishaps.

I would go back in a heartbeat. We went to the dining room inside and everything was absolutely delicious. I had the Bavarian pretzel stuffed with crab meat and cheese, which was so unique and very yummy. I also had the shrimp pesto and we shared the dark chocolate cake. Outside had a really nice vibe. There was live music and seats with the view of the mountains and a beautiful sunset. The menu is a taco bar. The ambience inside isn't much to speak of, but you also get of view of the mountain, but not as good as you as outside.
