We also know great service when we see it and always love to give credit where it's deserved! We called ahead with a large team of about 30 people and were told they could get us in. When we arrived, they were very transparent that they were working with a small crew, just two girls out front and one guy in the kitchen. With a group our size, we were a little nervous at first, but we had absolutely nothing to worry about! Zoey was our server and she was amazing. She handled our entire group with so much grace and professionalism. She kept everything organized, made sure the kids' food went in first, stayed on top of drinks and orders, and somehow managed to get all 30 of us taken care of and on our way in great time. The bartender was also incredibly nice and helpful, and together they kept everything running smoothly despite being short-staffed. The food did not disappoint either! The Reuben, burger, and Reuben burger were all fantastic, and of course the boys loved the wings and boneless wings. If you're visiting Cooperstown or heading to the Baseball Hall of Fame, definitely make Cooley's Stone House Tavern one of your stops. Great food, great service, and a hardworking staff that made sure we were taken care of. We'll definitely be back!

Sherman's Tavern was recommended to us as a fun place to grab some drinks at night after we dropped…read moreour kids off at the park, so we were looking forward to checking it out. Unfortunately, we waited quite a while to be acknowledged, while the bartender seemed much more interested in chatting with who I'm assuming were locals sitting at the bar. Eventually, an older woman came around the corner and asked her to come over and help us. The bartender rolled her eyes and then made a very inappropriate gesture, pretending to put a gun in her mouth with her fingers, before walking over to us with a smile as if nothing had happened. My husband and I own a bar/restaurant ourselves, so we completely understand that everyone has bad or frustrating moments while working in this industry. But I felt like this was completely unacceptable behavior, especially right in front of customers. It's certainly not something we would accept from someone working in our establishment. We had our drinks and left shortly after. It's too bad because the tavern seemed like it could have been a really fun place to spend the night, but after witnessing that interaction, we were completely put off and didn't feel like staying.

She offered to bring out a couple dipping sauces for our fries, and I asked for the bourbon jelly, which she was willing to do. That initial interaction set a great tone. The food itself was very good--both burgers were delicious. Unfortunately, after we placed our order, the service dropped off completely. We waited about an hour for our food, with no check-ins, no water refills, and no acknowledgment of the delay, even though our server walked past our table multiple times. At one point, I had to get up and find someone to talk to. I asked a man near the front for a manager, explained we had been waiting an hour, and pointed out our table. No one ever came over afterward to follow up. We were later told there was a large party, which is understandable--but that's not something customers or servers can control. A simple check-in or acknowledgment would have made a big difference. Instead, we were told we "should have said something," despite no one coming to the table. At the end, we waited again for the check, and when my daughter calmly tried to explain our frustration, the server spoke over her and said, "I'm almost 50--I've been doing this since I was 17," which came across as rude and unprofessional. The food was good, but the lack of communication, attentiveness, and management involvement made this a disappointing experience.

I had always been scared to go to the Happen Inn, as it's in the basement and one can't see much of it from the street. There aren't a lot of options in Little Falls, so we decided to take a chance and are thrilled that we did. The staff was really friendly and the other people in the bar didn't stare at us (like some local people do). There's a pool table and lots of tv's. It's light enough to not be sketchy, but not too bright. There was also jukebox music playing, but it wasn't so loud that we couldn't hear ourselves talk. They have lots of beer options and cheap prices. The food was also delicious (if cooked on a visible, greasy stove) and inexpensive. We had a steak quesadilla that easily weighed five pounds, full of cheese, steak, fresh mushrooms and griled onions, and a thick burger, topped with onion petals, cheese and sauce. They have daily specials and an interesting bar top. If you have to be in Little Falls, this is the place to go.

We have some family friends that live in Norwich. We made our way to this part of town to have…read morefather's day lunch with them. They called ahead and made a reservation for us. It was nice that they had 16 of us in a banquet room, the penalty box. The penalty box was quite spacious for the 16 of us. They had a few tables set up with silverware and popcorn for us. Three of the four tables were great. I really question the last table they set up. It was literally falling apart. It was so unstable. It needed more than just a couple coasters to stabilize the table which they tried doing. Common sense to me is don't use the table but as unstable as the table was, they actually thought it would work. It's quite humorous really, that you thought in the whole process of getting everything set up that in your sober mind it would work. After the whole fiasco of getting the tables rearranged, we finally got our drinks started. After drinks were dropped off, I went ahead and told the servers that we were ready to order. I didn't want to wait any longer. They were gone for long periods of time. With that big of a party that's in the back, you'd think that they would be around more often. For starters we got the giant pretzel to share. For lunch I got the hot honey smothered chicken with extra brocolli subbed for the mashed potatoes. The giant pretzel was very giant. It came with two types of cheese sauces. One was regular nacho type. It had a nice heat to it. The other cheese sauce was topped with bacon. The pretzel itself was not overly salted. It was harder on the outside but soft in the middle. It was plenty for the 5 of us to share. Lunch finally made it's way out. Some adjustments needed to be made since they wasn't enough broccoli for all of us. Our server adjusted two out of the four of us that needed our brocolli subbed. My plate was one of the last to get served. I had to ask my server about my second side since I asked for double brocolli. No other hot vegetable was available so I settled for coleslaw. My chicken was tender. There was a good amount of veggies and cheese on top of it. It was ok, I had a few bites and wasn't all too thrilled about it. The brocolli was roasted and had a nice char on it from the roasting. My son got a side of butter for his brocolli so I added a a little on mine. It was a good addition to it. The coleslaw tasted like store bought so I didn't eat much of it. We started off our dining experience with 2 servers and then ended with 1. Clearly she wasn't equipped to take on a party that big alone. Refills were asked for multiple times. Same with boxes and my husband's slushy. She finally told us that the slushy machine was down after we waited a while for it. She never checked up on us after lunch was dropped off until it was time to close us out. She was gone 85% of the whole time. It was honestly some of the worst service. As a past server, how does one leave a table unattended for that long of a period of time and feel like you deserve 20%? I feel bad that my husband spent his father's day meal here. He does so much for us throughout the year and he had to settle for less than basic food and service. From the table to the lack of service and everything else in between, I would recommend you going somewhere else but here for a meal.
