We had a great meal at Elderberry Pond on a Wednesday evening. Will, our server was attentive and…read morehelpful. Thanks, Will. The food was superb, flavorful and with nice portions. As always, it is a great environment with dining room, patio or sunroom options. Wine or beer only, and wine prices are quite reasonable. We ordered a wonderful bottle of rose, served chilled and crisp and with just the right amount of sweetness. I ordered port wine mushroom bisque, perfectly made and creamy. For an entree I had shrimp scampi, garlicky and lemony and fabulous with a plethora of Large shrimp. We had to order dessert to share since they had coconut custard pie. Out of this world.

The food itself was good, I ordered the garlic and brie bruschetta and a tenderloin. My partner got a tenderloin as well as crab cakes. I went in a party of six, and to be honest was not very impressed with the service. Of the 5 tenderloins for our table not a single one was the correct doneness, some of our party didnt recieve an appetizer so we had to remind them. Glasses sat on our table until the end of the meal, and we waited for our check for over 30minutes whilst we could see the staff standing on thier phones in the back. It was a little awkward.

The outside entrance and inside reception area were also very welcoming. It was a wonderful end to our festive day. We had a group of around 150. Our room was comfortable and spacious. Service was good. I, along with a few others at my table had ordered the baked haddock. It's funny, when I got my plate I thought it looked boring, no color. Lol, you do eat with your eyes first. I must say though, the haddock was cooked perfectly. The potatoes and veggies were also cooked well. Nothing was overly exciting but tasted fine. I'd say better than most banquet type meals. I was surprised that there was only 1 bartender for our large group. Though considering we were just there for dinner and not a long evening, it worked out fine. Overall, it was a nice dinner. 2023-122

I got a breakfast sandwich that had real eggs on stretch bread onions, and cheese topped with a little bit of hot sauce and a chocolate peanut butter protein milkshake to wash it all down. The menu has a variety of options from food to lattes, milkshakes, cooler drinks and some quick grab N go snacks. I ordered my food and milkshake at the counter. The host was helpful in helping me pick some of the best and most popular choices. She recommended some options and her options were great. I love them both. Plus they sell stretch bread from a local bakery. The inside of the dining area was clean well spaced out had window options for great natural light to come into the dining room. They had outside patio seating. The restrooms were clean. I'm happy I finally got to check out Cafe 108 before I leave town . I'm bummed that I did not discover the Cafe until later in my stay. Thank you for the great service and the great food. Cheers
