Lamplighter Restaurant & Pub is a cozy, family-friendly spot with a nice bar. The prime rib is fresh, tender, and juicy, and the ziti with meatball and chicken over pasta remain popular choices. Recent visitors praised the local fare, noting the eggplant parm special was great and the food is not trendy but reliable. The atmosphere features lots of rich dark wood, creating a classic bar and grill feel. The helpful staff are accommodating, with options for dietary restrictions and kid-friendly menus. The restaurant offers plenty of parking and wheelchair accessibility. Guests often enjoy chatting with the owner and learning about the building's history. Desserts like homemade cheesecake and warm apple crisp continue to be delicious options. The friendly and rustic vintage vibe, along with live music during peak season and a parking lot, make it a great place to visit. The blue cheese dressing is homemade and highly praised, and the overall atmosphere is warm and inviting. The dining room is very nice, and the bar area provides a relaxed setting, even during live music. Despite some comments about a need for updates and a musty smell, the restaurant remains a local favorite known for its great Prime Rib on weekends and a welcoming environment that offers quality food made from scratch.
