The overall experience was exceptional. Great food, great service, every detail was thought of. From the time we drove up to the entrance to the time we received our coast when leaving we were treated like royalty. Highly recommend for special occasions you will not be disappointed.

For me, this was a once in a lifetime experience. The room is lovely. The service was impeccable. The menu was so interesting it was extremely difficult to choose from. We had a wonderful experience. My only critique is that of my 4 courses, 2 were interesting but not really "wow" - conception and presentation all stellar, but just not as tasty as I'd expect. The beef tenderloin was truly fabulous. I dined with 3 others who felt similarly about a course or two.

Just wonderful experience. We love the WBI! It was my husband's birthday and they seated us at the best table. The menu selections were so creative- plus some classics, of course. Emma, our server was perfectly attentive but not hovering.

The White Barn Inn is an amazing experience and I highly recommend. The service is impeccable and the ambiance is rustic but refined. At this price point however, it's held to the highest standards. It's difficult for me to say the value is good at this price point, but you know going in that it's going to cost a lot. A couple of the dishes weren't quite perfect, but were still delicious (again, holding it to the highest standards). I would highly recommend it here for a one-of-a-kind dining experience and excellent food!

Extremely over priced (had the Xmas prix fixe). $650 for 2. Everyone was lovely and nice and the food was delicious (expect the dessert was a bit lame - maybe just uninspired - thus the 2 stars) but bang-per-buck, not worth it. When we ordered for a glass of champagne, of course the waiter brought my wife a $40 glass (we were unaware). We got taken for a ride. For the same price, we had a seven course meal with the vintners offering at Menton in Boston. (Barbara Lynch. Just cloaed recently) Then again, it was one of the only places open for dinner on Xmas day. They had us by the short ones. We won't return.FYI: One high point, the beef wellington was exceptional. Best beef in my life. "like butta"

Food and service, as usual, were non pariel. We especially enjoyed the live piano music. Peter, our waiter, was informative, conversational, and nonintrusive. We also enjoyed speaking with Florence. The sweets at the end of the meal are always worth making room for.
We went for Christmas dinner and were not disappointed. The service is impeccable, the food was amazing and the ambiance couldn't have been any better. I highly recommend the White Barn Inn for any special occasion.

In general, food was good. However, my pear salad was over dressed . The bread wasn't anything special. The entrees were good but were very small potions. The service was excellent as was the noise level

This is our second year of family gathering at the White Barn on Christmas and can honestly say it was very, very wonderful. We enjoyed the table, the service was excellent and the food was enjoyed by all. We could not have asked for more and each family member had nothing but praise. Thank you White Barn. See you next year.
The White Barn Inn continues to deliver on its reputation for excellence in food, service and atmosphere. It was the perfect choice for our small family Christmas dinner. The venison, lobster, and beef Wellington were all perfectly crafted, and the combinations of flavors delightful. The prix fixe menu had something for everyone to enjoy!
This was an incredible dining experience. It was high-end without being stuffy. The staff were professional and accommodating. I am gluten free and they were able to create a fantastic menu for me, including Lobster Tagliatelle. The piano player was fantastic, and provided the nicest hum to the environment. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a special night out.

The service was great, and I loved the ambience and decorations, but there was nothing special about the food. So for that reason, I think it's crazy to have a place like that so overpriced. And it's a bummer that you have to commit to a prix fixe menu when that's the case. I would come back for a drink at the bar or something, but not for dinner!
