Terrific service!! Excellent meal!! Had the Tempura Shitake Deep Fried Mushrooms with a Sesame Ginger Sauce and entrees were spot on. One complaint was we sat down to the table the glasses were dirty and unpolished water was still poured and served in them anyway.

A delightful surprise in the GLOW Region countryside!Super friendly staff, exceptional food, creative specials, appetizers, and dessert.While admittedly a wee bit pricey for a casual drop in on a Saturday, it was indeed worth it with every mouth watering bite.We intentionally forced ourselves to stop eating our plentiful entrees and took home leftovers in order to leave room for the daily creme Brule ... again... worth it!!Reminiscent of fine dining in a historical resort setting we definitely recommend taking the drive (for next time we will take note that reservations are recommended).

I thought the Yard of Ale was very good overall. I had the chicken French as my main. It was very good. Had a very good sauce on it. The chicken itself was very good texture. Thought it was very unique to have artichokes on top of it, was a very nice touch though. My only criticism would be the size of the salad. Maybe it was just me, but I thought the size of it was just a little too big for my taste, especially with how much comes with the main, or with my main ( a veg, side and two pieces of chicken.) Again overall was very good, just that one thing.

Just save the money and go to the lumber yard instead. My fiancé and I work long hours and had a rough day so I decided to make reservations to the yard of ale,we have ben a few time before and never had a bad experience there. The reservation were for 7:30 we walk in at 7:20. We didn’t get our food until 9 PM and in that span of a hour and half our waitress only check on us once. Nothing was ever said to us about longer wait time or apologized for the wait. We had to ask the other waitresses to get our drink after 20 minutes of putting our order in. The best part is I order the special of a bison steak on lobster mash potatoes and it came out cold and my fiancé order salmon that we make better at home. For a bill of over a $100 I will just go anywhere else. WE WIll not be back
Nice bartender and good menu. Everything is always fresh and delicious. I chose to give up the potato and did double vegetables with my lobster tail and everything was fantastic.

The yard of ale is a older resturant which is comfortably designed from the inside and out. White linnen tablecloths provide an elegant atmosphere along with hooks which are lined up next to the tables to hang coats or sweaters. The bar area has wooden heavy tables as well as booths to sit at. It was a busy New Years Eve the evening we dined. We had to wait no more than 5 minutes for our table to be ready so we headed to the bar to order a yard of ale. I highly reccomend the dub light. It was perfect ice cold with a hint of smokiness to add to the flavor. Both the bar tender and the hostess were kind enough to help me with the yard of ale since it's large and can be awkward to carry with out spilling. Service was both promp efficient and friendly exspecially since it was an extremely busy evening and all tables were taken. Our server greeted us with a smile and started by informing us what the specials were for the evening. We started with the delicious warm hand made bread ( a nice amount) which accompanied the meal and came with 5 different dipping sauces. Ever so delicious. The appetizer of choice and one which I highly reccomed is the fried dilled spears. Once again a nice portion to share not greasy but batter coated and fried just right. The dipping sauce was a creamy pepper one which was a perfect match for the spears. I also ordered a small cup of French onion soup which was one of the best soups I've had. The broth was anything but bland instead a nice amount of onion and cheese which completed the base. Entree of choice and comes highly recommended is the Chicken Maryland. A chicken breast stuffed with crab and broccoli with the right amount of hollandaise sauce provided without making the chicken taste soggy. The outside crust added to the chicken was crispy and delicious. The garlic smashed potatoes couldn't have tasted better nice chunky potatoes with a hint of garlic. And last but least the vegetable melody which accompanied the entree was made with fresh veggies and tasted like summer. I highly recommend the yard of Ale. It will not disappoint. Thank you Yard of Ale I'm looking forward to my next visit. Check web site for hours and days the resturant is opened. Reservations a must!
