Went there for a company event. The staff was very nice and attentive. The room was decorated nicely and we had plenty of space. The food was great, tasty and hot. Would schedule another event there.

Excellent meal start to finish. Our server Jasmine was professional and very friendly. Outstanding apps; risotto balls along with ahi tuna. Entrees of filet mignon and chicken bacon ravioli were great. We finished with creme brulee and chocolate ring, dang, dong cake. Very reasonable prices. We will be back.

Sorry - I want to give this place a good review, but I can’t. I’ve been to plenty of functions that were catered well, but the restaurant needs work.DO NOT ORDER THE MEATLOAF. Trust me. I took one bite and returned it.

This is perhaps the only beautiful wonderful spectacular restaurant in Claremont NH. We have eaten here several times and each visit is better than the last. The food is so incredible and tasty. The prices are good as well. Besides the food I LOVE HOW IT LOOKS....so romantic overlooking the Sugar River...there is a bridge that you can walk across and inside during the summer you walk over a glassed open look at the river if my memory is correct. The old school feel of this building is incredible as well. It's worthy of taking all the pictures you can handle. All in all this place HAS IT ALL.

The food, service, and inn are amazing. We stayed twice about a decade apart (2012 and 2024); both trips were amazing. The inn has only improved since 2024, with some new amenities. The rooms are cozy, natural (i.e., natural wood flooring and original mill building structure), and a welcome break from generic chain hotels. The food and service at the restaurant are top-notch.

Such a lovely aesthetic throughout this restaurant. Kind of has an old renovated barn feel but so well done , very clean, with large wooden beams, and brick. Surprised they don’t charge more money for their dishes. They even have a gluten-free menu. You even get crayons for the tablecloth. Can’t wait to go back!

The choices at the restaurant are great. Everything from pizza, to burgers, to salads, to pot pie, to top notch steaks. Rolls and sweet bread with every meal. Maggie was an awesome waitress! The water was cold and plentiful, full bar and locally sourced options!

My husband and I have eaten here maybe 4 times over the past few years, we always hope the "next time" will be better. Neither of us have ever had a dish here that we really loved. One time we just went for drinks at the bar and they weren't even very good, I actually returned mine. On our most recent trip we only went because we had a gift card. I got the baked scallops which were advertised as being baked in a buttery Ritz cracker topping. What I got was definitely not buttery, I actually think it was panko which had little to no flavor and some dry panko sprinkled over the top with some scallions thrown in, which I didn't like. The dish had no flavor and eating dry panko isn't fun. My husband ordered the Asian rice bowl and luckily he added the chicken option because other than the chicken it was a small amount of rice. We were both disappointed, we could have made better food at home. I don't think we'll ever go back now, there's nothing to look forward to.

Had dinner last night at The Common Man. Our experience was great even from the start. I couldn't seem to get the elevator door to open (for my mother), when I went downstairs and talked with the hostess about it she stopped doing everything and came to help me. It was my fault of course because I wasn't pulling hard enough on it. LOL We didn't have a reservation and needed a table not a booth. Which didn't seem to be a problem at all. We had a very nice server I believe his name was Striker. He was wonderful, we asked if they still did rolls which he brought out to us and they were amazing! We couldn't decide on the apple chicken or the special which was garlic and parmesan crusted steak. I asked Striker on his opinion and he said that he has had the steak recently, so we went with that. I am so very glad that we chose the steak it was great. Cooked perfectly and tasted so good. The Manager Patrick came over and introduced himself to us and asked how our dinner was, we chatted about the menu and he thanked us for joining them for dinner. The politeness, to the food, to the atmosphere was outstanding! Way to go Patrick. You, the staff, and the service was 100% on point tonight. Can't wait to go back.
