The diner!
Joseph B.

It's a classic New Englander family dinner. Food is good, service is friendly and attentive. The ambience is best around, so many breakfast place feel manufactured charm.

2 eggs with 3 bacon , 3 sausage or breakfast ham slice and side of hash
Bridget L.

We went with two of my grandchildren aged 3 and 1, the staff was awesome greeting us with smiles and getting us a high chair and engaging with the three year old to order his food. The other patrons loved and interacted with both kids as they ran around the restaurant respectively. The food is good and always comes out hot and fresh. It was an overall enjoyable experience

Eggs Benedict Florentine
Stacy L.

My first time eating here. I will definitely go back. Food was yummy and price was good. I got eggs Benedict with spinach and tomato instead of ham. Added a side of bacon, which I ate before taking a picture..

Waitstaff was kind and did a good job. Coffee & eggs were good. Hash browns tasted rancid; perhaps oil needs to be changed.

We booked the carriage house for a private event. We worked with Kim to plan the event and Fern was…read moreour host for the evening. The appetizers and food were fabulous. The wait staff and bar tenders could not have been more pleasant and professional. The carriage house was charming and very welcoming to our guests. Parking is limited but that should not be a deterrent. Our evening was perfect.

While we are accustomed to seeing older homes in New England, I see far less operating as…read morerestaurants or Inns. That said, this building's been standing since 1849. Deep red walls, wide-plank floors, framed portraits of people long gone, a fireplace; this place has the kind of character you simply can't manufacture. Add a live jazz duo playing piano and upright bass in the corner and the atmosphere is close to perfect. We settled in at the bar, which has a decent whiskey selection, and started with cocktails. We also shared the kale and butternut squash salad; we asked them to add a goat cheese medallion from their spinach salad, and honestly it was the right call. That bright, creamy note was exactly what the salad needed...or maybe what I needed. I do love fried goat cheese on a salad. Either way, it was perfect. Then came the cranberry rolls, which were the quiet star of the afternoon; crunchy on the outside, soft and flavorful inside. Don't skip these. For mains, I had the breakfast skillet, which is essentially everything but the kitchen sink loaded into a cast iron pan. Heavily loaded with meat (Arby's would be jealous), homefried potatoes with satisfying crusty bits, a couple over medium eggs, and served sizzling hot. The cheese sauce draped over the top was lighter than you'd expect, landing somewhere between a béarnaise and a classic cheese sauce; it kept the whole thing from getting too heavy. It took a while to work through, and that's not a complaint. My partner had the butternut squash and brown butter sage ravioli. It was well-cooked, flavorful, not too rich, though a little more sage would have put it over the top. The bartender had a good sense of humor and clearly knew his way around the bar. The problem was that he was doing too much; he appeared to be his own bar back, serving the six people at the bar, waiting on the tables within the lounge area, and it appeared he was covering other tables outside of the lounge area as well. He was often away, and with salad plates, appetizer plates, and menus sitting in front of us long after they were needed, the clutter added up. Pre-bussing costs nothing and makes a real difference. Tighten up the staffing model and this place is a very easy five. If you're in the area, you should stop in and check it out for yourself. I'm not sure if the jazz duo on Sunday brunch is a regular occurrence, but if it is, you should definitely make a point of it. They were wrapping up around 2:30-3:00 and it made the whole afternoon feel like something a little more special than just brunch.

They had a few n/a choices for beer, I had the lemon drop cocktail (Thursday special $8 cocktails well liquor). Ordered buffalo egg rolls, unfortunately they were very dry, no buffalo flavor. For dinner my husband had the Mozambique Mussels, they were supposed to be spicy but were just more vinegary- not bad just not what he was hoping, The dish came with crostinis to soak up broth. I was trying to decide between the brick chicken and the steak tips. I had the steak tips there before and they were excellent! The bartender suggested since I had them before to try the chicken. Great choice- it was so flavorful and moist! It came with asparagus and choice of starch. I picked roasted potatoes. Not realizing it was sweet potatoes- I think it had a sweet liquid maybe maple syrup? Little too sweet for me but tasty, The bartender was serving on the floor as well as the bar because their server had gone back to Ireland the day before - but she managed it well, as the floor and the bar was filling up! There are tables that over looks water if you are so inclined, nice music playing in the background. We will be back!!

Phantom Farms Brewing is a craft brewery that opened in Cumberland, Rhode Island in March 2024. It…read morewas founded by entrepreneur Jason Macari and his son-in-law Jay Neveu. Macari first worked for toy manufacturer Hasbro before launching a custom cabinetry business with another former Hasbro colleague. Today he is involved in multiple businesses. For a new venture, Macari decided to open his own brewery with Neveu, another former Hasbro employee. The partners acquired and completely renovated the circa 1872 Berkeley Mill boiler room building to house the brewery. They named it "Phantom Farms" after the Macari family's local apple orchard and bakery just down the road. Oscar Garrido and Andrea Riera, a husband-and-wife team from Chile, were hired as the head brewers. Since opening, Phantom Farms has become known for its farm-to-pint operation, its close connection to its namesake orchard, a historic taproom, and award-winning lagers. I recently visited Phantom Farms Brewing while I was in town for the day. I was scheduled to meet up with some other beer bloggers. The first thing I noticed was how beautiful the restored historic building was. There was plenty of space upstairs and downstairs, indoors and outdoors, and the brewery is also family-friendly. After exploring all of the various rooms, I looked over the draught menu. There was an eclectic mix of beer styles as well as hard cider crafted with apples from the Phantom Farms Orchard. Between mingling with the other bloggers and playing some games of Biñho, I enjoyed pours of "Half Dark" (Czech Amber Lager), "Elegant Viking" (New England IPA), "Alternate Continuum" (Barrel-Aged Saison), and "Hypernova" (Barleywine). I was very impressed with everything that I tried, especially the last two. Between an excellent roster of beers, a beautiful historic space, and some excellent company, I had a really enjoyable experience at Phantom Farms and I highly recommend them to any craft beer aficionados who are visiting the area!
