We had Thanksgiving dinner here and actually sat at one of the high tops in the bar. It was super fun… The meal was delicious with actual home-cooked food… The service was fantastic, and the live piano music in the background was cheerful and not intrusive. The place was festive and clean and nice…. We really enjoyed it and will be back soon.
Service was great for lunch, I was able to order off the old menu without hesitation by the server. Very professional, nice older tavern like feel and good food. We have been here before and will be back.
We did not do the hotel. This review is only for the restaurant. We ate on a Wednesday right when they opened at 3, we were the only ones in the restaurant but it was an off season day. Chicken parmesan was good. Substantial amount of chicken. Ravioli was good also. Caesar salad for two at the table was also good but not noteworthy so I would skip it next time. Bill was $100
LOVE LOVE! Beautiful clean room, thoughtful service, free WiFi, restaurant right next door, in the center of town, easy parking, a gift shop below...I mean, really? When everything else is going up, the Fife Country Inn is still affordable yet well appointed and maintained. I LOVED that I could walk everywhere! It's a special place, family-run, in a special town.
This was my first visit — and, regrettably, it will also be my last.
We arrived on a quiet Sunday afternoon, with only one other table occupied, yet still waited nearly an hour for a single burger and a chicken Caesar salad.
The Caesar salad was, without exaggeration, the most disappointing I’ve ever been served: an almost comical lack of chicken, entirely absent dressing and Parmesan. When I requested some, I received a small dollop of dressing that was clearly not house-made. The burger, according to my husband, was wholly lacking in flavor and would have been entirely forgettable if not for the pineapple chutney.
The atmosphere unfortunately matches the lackluster food. The space is dim, with mismatched artwork and crooked overhead picture lighting. The ceiling shows a visible swell that gives the impression of potential structural issues, and the ceiling fans look as though they’ve been there for decades. Overall, the restaurant is in dire need of both culinary and aesthetic revitalization.
