    A family brunch was hosted by my daughter & SIL, in the East Room. There were 10 of us…read more Josh took very good care of us & was attentive to our needs. My son ordered a burger with just cheese, but it arrived with hollandaise sauce on it. By the time he got his burger, everyone had finished their meals. I feel a more efficient way to order a burger is to build your own, where you select the add ons: cheese, bacon, onion, Canadian bacon, tomato etc. If you have to charge more for a certain add on, then do so. The mimosas & the billinis were good & everyone enjoyed their entrees. It did seem as though we waited a long time for our entrees & the restaurant was not crowded at all, on a Saturday morning. Everyone enjoyed themselves so I assume we would all gladly return. The fake wisteria hanging up on the way in, seemed rather silly. Wisteria seldom blooms, LOL, so that was a dead giveaway.

    I'm not sure where to start. I saw a few one star reviews and noticed that the accounts that are…read moreposting the one star reviews have only done the one review. Makes me wonder if it's a real account. When you come in the front doors the decor is historical and beautifully well kept. The guy at the front desk was great and well spoken. We get to the room and it's beautiful. Even has a four poster bed. Two couches and a coffee table. It has a nice bay window with a view of the garden. You can't compare this place with motel 6 so expect to pay a few extra dollars. I consider the price to be thrifty for what we received. We ventured over to the Tavern next door for a drink. Same decor as the main building. Excellent service at the Tavern. I got a hamburger and it was perfectly cooked. We had a great stay thank you for having us.

    All I can say is "Mmmmmmm...."…read more Great selection, and ok service. The ambiance can be a little hectic at times, based on the casual fast food model they use, but it works! Everything from the vegan options the coffee rocks it out of the park. YUMMY place! :)

    Ya know, I once navigated to this place on accident before? Yeah. Still not sure what my GPS was…read moredoing that day. Because I normally go to the one in Salem. But on this day, I thought to myself, "Self, I really hate making that busy-as-hell left turn on South Broadway in Salem. What if we took a journey to the Andover location instead?" And so it was. I enter this cozy little restaurant carefully tucked against a slightly submerged parking garage. Although, I probably shouldn't say "little" because the interior was noticeably larger than its Salem counterpart. It's also noisy AF in there when it gets busier than a New York subway. So naturally, I ordered my usual to-go (a Country Classic with an extra egg and hashbrowns for those who don't know). Only it wasn't *quite* ready on time. Which, to be fair, is kind of a minor point. Thing is, they have to shout your name whenever your order is finally ready. This in and of itself can prove to be quite the challenge when bellowing atop the already roaring crowd of customers impeding the otherwise accessible pickup shelves. I'll do my best to describe the interior since I wasn't really able to take pictures. But try to imagine an L-shaped dining area with the longest part hosting a row of countertop seats facing the windows. Beyond that sits a rather modest dining area with a few more tables. Next to that sits the gender neutral restrooms. It's strange and cramp, particularly when the place is packed tighter than a sardine can. Sufficed to say, I'm not much a fan of the interior design here. Being the partial recluse that I am, I offer the following best practice for a place so riotous: mobile order that shiz, cuh! Seriously. I had to put in my noise cancelling earbuds to appease my misophonia. The good news is....the food is still awesome. The eggs? Creamier than crème fraîche. Taters? Eh, I don't why...but these seemed way more seasoned the very first time I tried them. Fortunately, they actually pair rather well with their refined version of ketchup. The bacon? Well...let's just say I wish it were served well done. Not sure if I'm able to request that. But I'll scope out my options next time and get back to you all. That's it though. Nice place, WAY easier to get to than its Salem counterpart, but a bit too cramp and noisy for my taste which means....I'll likely ever dine in here. It's all good though, because I'm still giving Crack'd Kitchen & Coffee in Andover 4 Country Classics with all the fixins out of 5.
