    This was a very beautiful place on beautiful grounds... the lady that owns this place "Fran" was…read morevery rude. Rude to the bride and groom throughout the whole wedding day and the days before and after... she came during the wedding and started video taping people from the dark corners making people feel uncomfortable. Love my best friends that got married there but would never wish this "lady's" experience on anyone... please don't make this mistake for your special day. Sincerely The Preacher

    Fiddlers barn is a beautiful venue, that sits near a beautiful pond out on the countryside…read more However, that is the only positive thing I can say about this venue. The owner Fran, was consistently difficult to reach by phone or email during my entire planning process. As for the reception itself, it was almost cancelled and I was blamed almost solely and blatantly in front of my family, for not having provided one piece of paperwork. This all not brought to my attention until my wedding day AS my guests were showing up to the venue. We were ASSURED by her, after asking at least 3 different times weeks before the wedding day, if there was any paperwork left to give her to make sure everything went smoothly for the day of. I was left feeling very angry and embarrassed that this miscommunication had to occur so late. By the way, if you are interested in this place, you will need to provide ALL your own basic amenities such as bathrooms and running water. No vendors are included whatsoever. Costs will be HIGH. It's your responsibility to make sure your vendors have ALL of their proper insurances correctly filled out as well as ALL permits. Good luck keeping in communication with the owner for that.To be honest, You're better off going to a wedding barn that includes at least basic amenities. You may also meet her "friend" she hires, who rudely bosses your guests around for parking and acts like a "bouncer", following around all your friends and family during the entire reception. Fran is strict supervisor, who will hover around your friends and family monitor everything you do closely and uncomfortably. This unfortunate experience with unprofessional behavior, left all of my guests with a bad taste in their mouths. I completely regret choosing this venue to have my reception and I would never recommend it after my experience. I can't say any of my 55 guests were pleased with their experience with her. Its is such a shame, because it is a very beautiful venue.

    This was a wedding venue for a wedding and reception in one spot…read more Cater and open bar. Dinner was fab, served home style Shared serving plate and passed down. 2 bars , pool table and shuffle board. 3 or 4 bartenders inside and outside gathering spots. Quite nice

    Went here this past weekend for a wedding. Call building you have to walk up a flight of stairs to…read moreget to the event space. But it's pretty well opened so you can see everything that's going on although there can be columns that can block your view, but it was not a problem. The tables are decorated nicely And the chairs were pretty comfortable. Food was served family style. We had a chicken dish, a steak dish and veggies. All good. The veggies were a little weird because they had cinnamon on it but I enjoyed them. The cocktail hour was in a different space and that was really good. They had a charcuterie board and passed around hors d'oeuvres. My favorite was the beef Wellington and the shrimp cocktail. The tacos were good too. Let me borrow. It was a little salty and the pasta that came with it a little overdone. Dessert was OK. The cake was a little dry. They had a vanilla sundae bar which was fun but I did enjoy the Smore making station that they had. We ended the night leaving with a bacon, egg and cheese on a bagel and it was warm. Those who took it said they enjoyed them. we had over 150 people and never felt crowded in the room. Room to dance without feeling you're on top of each other.

    I had heard about Lincoln Hill Farms, but hadn't been to see a show there yet. There was a…read morebluegrass band playing Grateful Dead and Jerry Garcia music so my friend and I thought we'd check it out. It's located pretty close to CMAC in Canandaigua and definitely is a farm. Smell of cow manure gives it away lol. They must've expected a big crowd because they had parking attendants and they charge $10 but they give you a token for five dollars off a drink. They have a decent sized stage and very good sound system. There's a big area in front that is for dancers, but with the small crowd we had that was only partially filled. They have some picnic tables available and also a covered area that was for weed growers that had long picnic tables as well. We brought our own folding chairs and sat in them for a while. They have good drink choices there and the food wasn't so bad either. They have barbecue food and fried food. And they make all their sauces on site. Check out my pics of the menus. I split the chicken fingers and fries with my friend. For the band's second set, we went up to the VIP area upstairs which they didn't charge for that night . Standing up there, you got a great view of the sunset and of the band and the whole surrounding area. As I said, the sound was very good and the vibe was great. It's not a fancy place but if you get into the outdoor farm experience, it's a great place to see a show. They also do private events there and weddings.

    Really disappointed that my first visit there to see the movement was not a great one…read more No one checked my bag what if someone had a weapon or something, I heard several people say their bag wasn't checked. The staff was not welcoming or friendly. I've worked several venues in different states and currently work for some and we definitely don't make patrons feel like I felt. Truly disappointed. Could be a great venue but the management needs to work on learning how to make patrons feel more welcomed and teach their staff more on customer service. The VIP area was really not very good for the cost. I've worked hundreds of shows and our VIP areas are much more cleaner and have their own restrooms and friendlier staff.
