The parking lot was packed and the reviews were good so I thought I would give them a try. There was one sweet older lady there zipping around taking orders and delivering food. She was go, go, go but very sweet and seemed to know most everyone by name. The food came out fast and it was a solid comfort food breakfast. The chicken fried steak wasn't chewy like some I've had at other places, a little on the thin side, but it was good. The potatoes were nice and creamy on the inside and had a nice crunch on the outside. The biscuits were super soft and fresh and the gravy was just right. Not too peppery or chunky. The only downside was walking out smelling like grease. It's a small place, so it comes with the territory. So if that bothers you think there is seating in the back vs the front. Solid breakfast spot. I'll be back.

I don't wanna bring out the racist card but you can definitely tell the difference of customer service with their "reg" and with a different type of customer. Our waitress was OK, and the food was OK as well. Nothing special about their food. As we were going to pay I tried paying with a young lady who said she was no allowed to charge. Waited about 10 more min by the register for some older white lady with curly hair to come over not say ONE single word to us. Instead just took the money rolled her eyes, left the $20 on the counter and walked away. Saying this place has HORRIBLE service is short of how bad they are.

Last yr I spent many sunset evenings w/o ever being asked to leave .. guess they thought I was a member. I asked her about happy hour food and she said happy hour is in the bar... I told her I wanted to check out the happy hour and went inside -she should have informed the pool closes at 5 at that point. I said hi to the bartender and inquired of the happy hour and that I was enjoying the pool. He then informed me at the bar to get happy hour prices I had to eat in the bar and that I could not take my happy hour food outside to the pool. The young man at that point should have informed me of the pool closing at 5 as well. I ordered. 2 tacos and grilled shrimp and it took 52min to arrive. I asked the guy bartending twice if he ordered my food. I got back to the pool. It was a few minutes after five after jumping into the pool the nice attendant informed me the pool is closed. I got charged $ 35 x2 for two people to not use the pool because I went inside to get happy hour food. A lot of non communication A lot of taking advantage of peeps unaware ! Not cool

I've been coming to Trout Farm Inn since I was a kid, and I was genuinely excited when it reopened…read morea few years ago. I visit nearly every Monday and typically spend between $300-$500 a month here, sometimes even more, because I've always enjoyed supporting this business. First, I want to recognize the staff members who have consistently made my visits enjoyable. Erica, Marie, and Robin are absolutely wonderful, you are so lucky to have them. I've also met your manager with the red hair (I unfortunately don't remember her name), and she has always been incredibly kind and welcoming. Employees like them are a big reason I've continued coming back. I understand that costs have gone up. The increase in pool admission from $25 to $35 is understandable, and I also understand the automatic 18% gratuity for poolside food service. Running a business isn't cheap, and I'm happy to pay for a quality experience. What was disappointing was how my family's experience was handled during my mom's birthday. Between pool admission, renting a $240 cabana, food, and drinks, we easily spent over $1,000. we came two days in a row so that was per day. We brought our own birthday cake, the second day, and when I was told there was a cake-cutting fee, I said I understood. However, when I returned to the counter later on, I was informed that the fee was $5 per slice they cut. That was never disclosed beforehand. At that point, it stopped feeling like a luxury experience and started feeling like being nickel-and-dimed. Charging $5 per slice of cake, after guests have already spent so much, comes across as unnecessarily tacky and leaves a poor impression. If this policy exists, it should be clearly communicated in advance so guests aren't surprised during a special occasion. Unfortunately, this isn't the only reason my perception has changed. Over the past year, the service has noticeably declined. While there are still some incredible employees, the overall atmosphere doesn't feel the same. The staff no longer seems as happy or supported as they once were, and I've even heard similar concerns from someone I know who worked there. I genuinely want Trout Farm Inn to succeed because I've been a loyal customer for years and have so many great memories here. That's why it's disappointing to see the guest experience slipping. I hope management takes this feedback seriously and focuses on providing the level of hospitality that made this place special in the first place. Side note for the kitchen! I would consider butterflying your coconut shrimp, they're a great menu item! However I have had to return the order many times, for being raw in the center, they're too thick for the fryer to fully cook properly. Thank you Trout farm I believe in you and hope things get better for your staff and guests:)

We were visiting our niece for school and weren't really sure where to eat, so we decided to try…read moreMad Yolks after seeing all the different options they had. Our niece had also heard really good things about it from other students, so we figured it was worth checking out and I'm so glad we did! My partner and I both got the B.A.E. sandwich, while our niece got the Spam sandwich. For drinks, I ordered Alex's iced coffee, my partner got the jasmine lemonade, and our niece got an iced matcha latte. We also shared an order of the Dirty Tots. Everything we ordered was so good, but what really stood out to me about the B.A.E. sandwich was how fluffy the eggs were. I feel like that alone really elevated it and made it different from a typical breakfast sandwich. I also loved the bread it was soft, fluffy, flavorful, and worked perfectly with everything inside. Another thing that really made the sandwich for me was the sauce. I'm not exactly sure what was in it, but it mixed so perfectly with the eggs, bacon, avocado, and bread. Without it, I feel like the sandwich could have been a little more basic, but that sauce added so much flavor and tied everything together. It honestly made the whole sandwich feel complete. The B.A.E. was easily a 10/10 for me. As a coffee lover, I was also really happy with Alex's iced coffee. It had the perfect balance not too sweet, but not too bitter either. The Dirty Tots were another favorite. The tater tots were really crispy, and we loved the curry flavor incorporated throughout. The fried egg on top was also such a cute addition. It was a little messy, but nothing we couldn't handle and definitely worth it! The spot itself was very lively and popular, especially with students, so it was pretty busy when we went. That being said, for the quality of the food, we really didn't mind waiting. We all left really happy with what we ordered, and this is definitely going to be one of those places we come back to whenever we're visiting our niece. Such a great breakfast spot and an easy recommendation!
