It is super hard to decide! The ladies at the counter were so kind and patient with me as I kept going back-and-forth as to which tree I wanted most. I ended up with a fig pastry, and my mom got the cream cheese danish with raspberries pastry. My dad got the cinnamon bun. My mom and I split each of ours so we could try both. I have to say, if you like sweet, the fig one is for you. The raspberry isn't as sweet and I actually like that one better. No matter what you choose, you can't go wrong! This is definitely a must stop for your list! Bon appétit!

Perfect crust! So cinnamon-y sweet I ate the whole thing without syrup! Soft scrambled eggs were like heaven. Pork sausage links were so juicy. The grilled potato's so, so good, paired with the sausage it was the perfect amount of salt. I also got a side of sautéed mushrooms, you cannot go wrong with that combo if you love all of these things. The chef really cares for his craft. The vibe of the Acorn Hill Lodge And Bistro is absolutely adorable. Neon light sign in the window, Christmas lights wrapped around supports. Not too bright, not too dark. Again, perfect for early morning! They have more amenities and businesses on sight I hope to check out in the future. No photos, I ate it all too fast. Sorry, not sorry. 10/10! Get those Pancakes!

The waitress never apologized or explained. I had to ask for a box and the check because she was just looking at me without saying anything. Also the food wasn't fantastic either. The eggs weren't totally cooked, the quesadilla was soggy on one side, and I asked for an English muffin but got white bread instead. We asked for berries on the French toast and that was not added. For waiting 45 minutes the meal wasn't anything special. Im giving it a 2 star because the food wasn't disgusting and the environment was relaxing and laid back, oh and the friendly black cat when we walked in was cute.

On top of that the waitress flips the tip screen and you feel obliged to comply with 17 per cent tax. The use of your credit card added another tax food: the she crab soup was too thick and greasy.
