We had a fabulous birthday dinner for my husband. The tavern and history is so charming and every meals was delicious. Half of us ordered the restaurant week special scallop scampi and the lobster bisque and the Potato crusted haddock was great. Portion sizes and presentation was perfect. Service attentive. Would definitely recommend.

I went for dinner, not a room, and my wife reminded me how great the Jefferson chicken is. She was right! It's great!

Restaurant Week first time exploring. Really enjoyed the colonial historic structure and setting. Absolutely fabulous carrot cake with honeyed pecans. Oh my! We'll be back to further explore the menu. So glad it's open!
This is me and my husband's favorite date night spot. The food is fantastic, the drinks are delicious, the ambience is impeccable, and the staff are friendly and attentive. 5 stars across the board!

Three Chimneys is a dining experience in an historic building. Everyone there is attentive and focused on providing elegance to the diners. This is a special place to enjoy the people you are with and make special memories.

Absolutely fantastic old fashioned inn. We have booked rooms here for traveling performing artists and for wedding guests, both of whom we did not want to disappoint.Safety: Located in one of the safest communities in the country this complex has a full fire alarm and sprinkler systems. Fire and EMS services are full time professionals and only 3 minutes away.Food & drinks: Great food and beverage selection in either a formal dining room and the Tavern.

We reserved the Tavern, but were seated in the dining room, which is nice, but not where we really wanted to be. We assumed the Tavern was busy. The food choices were good, but one person had steak and it was poor. Could have been a much better cut of meat for the price. The pasta dish and crab cakes were very good.

We were so happy to have been seated next to the large fireplace downstairs on a cold Saturday February evening. The atmosphere was lively and cozy. The inn and restaurant felt quintessential new england charm. We were very happy with the service and food, very delicious. The waitress was very warm, friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable. Would definitely return to this restaurant!

Great Place to eat out for a pre-game meal when you're done with the college bar vibe. Staff was fantastic. Bar seating did seem to be a bit cramped though. If your a tall or larger body person, I'd suggest reserving a table. This place is worth the money.
Celebrated my daughter's birthday here who is a UNH alumni & had an amazing experience!!! Everything was cooked to perfection & the drinks were outstanding!!! A wonderful perk was opening a little early so we could enjoy dessert & get to the hockey game In plenty of time!!! We cannot wait to go back!!!

I thought about how I could write a review that would allow the restaurant to get criticism but applaud their finer points. It's been difficult, but here goes. The setting, the grounds, the lovely and historical building, the views. This wasn't our first time but we've gone here two times and both on Valentines Day. Our first time, our waitress was outstanding and knew all the history and information about the buildings and the person who built the building and many of the buildings for the King at the time. The food was “Ok” but the time we had was nice. Mostly because of the waitress and the surrounding. Our second time was just this week and it was such a disappointment that unless the person doing the menu and the cooking is changed. Notice I didn't say Chef because I feel the menu on Valentine's Day which consisted of, a Hamburger, a fried chicken dish, two versions of a fish meal and salmon. There was a specials list but it didn't state what was in the special. All the other waiters and waitresses explained the specials to the patrons but I didn't pay much attention to it because we were waiting for our waitress to explain that to us. Again the selections on the menu were less then attractive so I asked about the specials and the waitress said there here. So I asked her to explain what they were. The second one which as I recall had no mention of a piece of steak, she said the one selection was a Delmonico steak! I said stop there I'll take that. I told her medium rare. My wife had scallops scampi. Both sounded awesome. We received our food very quickly. I'll now explain the presentation and what was wrong with the whole meal. My wife's scampi was soaked in oil like they had a pile of noodles all stuck together from the starch, that when they grabbed the portion, had to mix oil in it to free it up. The scallops weren't seared much if any and had zero flavor. Being on the Seacoast we have connections to scallops and lobster right off the boat as many do.

My husbands first time ever going there and he was highly disappointed that his entree and lobster bisque were both cold. The pasta with his meal didn't seem cooked thoroughly either. The drinks were great and my meal was spectacular. I do with is had chosen a seat that wasn't in the smack dab middle of two other couples but they were great company as we all chatted about the dessert menu. Although my husband says he won't go back, I think I can convince him thanks to the ambience offered.

Finding the driveway was a bit tricky at night, but what a treat when we sat down! Friendly, attentive service from both the waitstaff and the maitre d'. Delicious appetizer (crab cakes) and entrees (shrimp gnocchi and mushroom ravioli). Generous wine pours. We'll be back ASAP.
Lovely historic tavern setting. Reminded me of a few places in Annapolis MD. The setting was exactly what we were hoping for on a mid-week winter's eve. The drinks were delicious - I had the Black Manhattan and my wife had a Coconut Mojito. We had the buffalo cauliflower as an appetizer. I had fried chicken and my wife haddock. All was very good. It was a quiet evening in a cozy tavern which was perfect. Definitely will be back again.
