Yuck. This place has been here since god was a child but they never seem to be able to get it right. How do you undercook cook ravioli? The pasta came out to me paper thin and still rock hard. The server was completely out to lunch and by the time he came back to check on us, my entire party had either finished their meals or shoved the plates away in disgust. We went on a night that was "buy one, get one" so we weren't going to pay for one of the meals anyways, so when the dimwitted manager came over and proudly announced that she was taking care of my meal - YEAH, I KNOW! THAT WAS THE ADVERTISED SPECIAL - I just didn't get to eat it! I don't know what the inn rooms look like. I hope they're great, but skip the restaurant. YUCK! read more

This restaurant was referred to me by a hotel staff member. We took a chance and it was amazing. Staff was so attentive and super friendly. Food is delicious. We had roasted corn chowder, grilled peach burrata, calamari,crab cakes and chicken Alfredo. It was all delicious. We couldn't finish eating cause we were so full. For drinks I got an oatmeal cookie drink. Out of this world! I could not get enough of this place. The atmosphere is very nice and it's so beautiful inside. Very Christmasy. We will definitely be coming back. And I will definitely tell people that they need to eat here. Next time I will stay at the inn overnight. read more

Had dinner here yesterday. Was a fantastic experience. The menu items we ordered were prepared exceptionally well and plated with artistic creation. Whomever their chef is should be lauded for the menu items coming out of his kitchen. The pricing was reasonable for the quality and freshness of the food. read more

Came back to the area to celebrate our anniversary, we got married and had dinner at the CFI last year and everything was great. This year it was 50/50 at the restaurant. Dinner- we made reservations for a Saturday evening and were seated right away. Our server, I believe his name was Andre, was phenomenal the entire night. For an appetizer we got the baked brie, which was really good, and a perfect portion for two. The bread basket was good as well, I only had a bite of my husbands, since I didnt want to get too full for dinner. For entree's, I had the salmon which came with choice of starch and asparagus, I got the mashed potatoes, the salmon and potatoes were great, the asparagus was a little tough to chew, didnt seem to be cooked all the way, but it didnt take away from the dinner as a whole. My husband got the shrimp and scallop scampi, and that was a huge portion, tons of shrimp and scallops on top of a huge bowl of pasta. Dessert we opted for the tiramisu, which was really good as well! 4 Stars for dinner!! The next morning we went to breakfast- and that was lacking. They serve hot breakfast now, with no choice of continental for hotel guests. We made a reservation, as that was suggested, and were seated quickly. there was one server working the entire dining room, and she was young and seemed new to being a server. We placed our order and the food came out quickly. The food was good - pancakes for me and eggs for my husband, no complaints. After we were done was the problem, since our waitress had to work at every table in the dining room we waited almost a half hour from when we were done eating just to get her attention to get the check. There was another couple at the table next to us going through the same issue. They need to hire more staff for the morning rush 3 stars for breakfast read more

Atmosphere, staff and servings were all great to us . Recommend a evening here in fall or anytime

My husband and I had dinner tonight and the food exceeded my expectations! I have traveled all over the world and the steaks we had tonight were the best I have ever had! The food was so delicious I am booking a room now just for that reason alone! The restaurant was immaculate & clean and the service was top notch! I highly recommended ‼ read more

This review is for the Inn...the place truly deserves the 5 star review. The accommodations are warm, cozy and extremely comfortable. The staff is very friendly, helpful... absolutely wonderful! We only had breakfast here ...which was really good! read more

Hi, My wife, newborn and myself made our way to North Conway over July 4th weekend. This was our eating highlight for sure. If I remember correctly we had a server named Hunter? He was exceptional and very patient with my child. We got the Cesar salad and crab cakes for appetizers both were great.... The star of the show was the braised short rib with Rissoto cake and the seared salmon! If you are in the Jackson/Conway area I highly recommend making this a priority. read more

we had reservations for 4 people at 6 pm Monday Dec. 30. We were seated promptly and our server (Hayden) arrived shortly after to take our drink orders and answered menu questions. 25 minutes later!! our drinks arrived; they we're just OK. Not sure who was tending bar. some time went by and our server came back to take our meal order but forgot to bring the pub menu we asked for. After finally placing our orders, being told they were out of one special (Osso Bucco). We waited for an appetizer to show up and then entrees. 2 of us in the party ordered the same item. Strip steak, medium rare. One order was nearly medium and the other almost rare. Cold red inside. After sending it back. The rare one, another came almost identical to the first. Annoyed we moved on. Needless to say, desert was not considered or even offered. They did take it off the bill but failed to entice us back. Disappointed all around. Pleasant, quiet atmosphere, and empty tables during our time there but 2.5 hours later we went home read more

Wooooow! Oatmeal cookie martinis are a great starter and finisher to the meal! The NY strip steak was cooked perfectly! There Clam chowder was so different thick like a stew and with baaacon!!!! The only negative was parking so if you go you need to arrive a little early! Overall a very good restaurant! read more

Amazingly delicious gourmet meals and desserts. Drinks, servers and atmosphere 10/10 as well! Highly recommend this gem of a restaurant!

Had a family dinner here. Burgers were very good, but a little pricey. Came with plenty of hot and crispy fries. Steak was average, not much flavor but cooked properly. Turkey dinner was plentiful and delicious, though it needed more gravy. Half rack of lamb only had 2 ribs but was excellent otherwise. Kids meals: chicken tenders with fries were great, fresh tenders and plentiful. Pasta meals were a little underwhelming. Very little pasta and one meatball. Again, everything was top quality, with the exception of the sirloin, which was rather bland. Staff was great. Restaurant was comfortable and relaxing. Forgot to mention appetizers. Clam chowder was delicious. Clams were not at all chewy and not s spec of sand. Coconut shrimp were average. Shrimp were butterflied, but a little on the small side. read more

The waitstaff are amazing. We were there Monday night (July 12) and the guy and girl (trainee) we had were just fabulous. This is casual dining with more sophisticated menus. Meaning, dress casually, rustic decor (think old farmhouse but authentic, not tacky), but "fancier" food than a place like the 99 or whatever. I love that rustic feel but I know another couple we spoke with thought it felt too old and like it was "creaky and falling apart". I think they missed the authenticity of the place. The elk tacos were a bit salty but the meals and the soups were so good. So happy with our experience. We also did breakfast there (continental) and were impressed with the baked goods and the wide selection in general. Make sure you make a reservation. Due to COVID, you might think the dining room "looks empty" which I heard people say but keep in mind that they need to not overwhelm the kitchen which is working on a smaller staff probably (like every other restaurant we went to up there) read more

Adorable Christmas decorations, very friendly service, and yummy food. Christmas Farm Inn Restaurant is a great spot to visit if you want comfort food in a warm and cozy setting. As I am a Christmas-nut, I absolutely loved the decorations - they add to the ambiance and are very festive. We had the duck meatballs in a sweet glaze, amazing carrot/apple soup, fresh short rib pappardelle, very rich veal schnitzel, and tasty apple crumble. Very good! read more

The owners have changed during the past 36 years since I first visited this place, but one thing has stayed the same- the charm and warmth of this beautiful Inn and restaurant. The walls may be painted a different color, and the furniture rearranged, but coming here feels like coming home. The food and service are impeccable. Dinner starts with warm, fresh rolls served with a compound butter that was nearly addictive. There is quite a large selection of main courses- hard to believe there isn't something for everyone on the menu! I had the braised lamb shank, something I order whenever I get the chance. It was delicious- the meat fell right off the bone and was savory perfection. Loved the garlic mashed potatoes too. My wife had the lobster risotto, which was a halved lobster tail served on a huge bed of risotto flavored with Gouda cheese and brightly colored vegetables. Very nice! We were too stuffed for dessert, but the dark chocolate box containing a brownie, ice cream, chocolate sauce, and whipped cream certainly caught our eye! It was nice to visit once again with an old friend. Hopefully we will meet again in the not too distant future! read more

The place was recommended by our lodging hostess as a great place for a special occasion dinner we made a reservation wanted closer to 6:30 but the only time available was 7:15 pm we accepted when we arrived the place was almost empty two other couples were sitting there already and later one couple left and another was sited so it was just six people in this huge room The decorations that supposedly were the attraction were gone it was sterile and totally devoid of any charm perhaps because of COVID and there were no tablecloth on the table which I would expect for the prices they charge. That being said the food was good I had the lamb shank which fell off the bone very tender and my husband had rack of lamb the dessert was chocolate bag and it was ginormous So if you don't care for ambiance just food it is definitely good but for a special occasion it was rather sad read more

Terrible experience. At 7:15 seating on a Saturday, kitchen had already run out of soup and a few entree choices. Waiter checked with kitchen to make sure our entree choice - their specialty turkey dinner was available. Assured it was available, we ordered the turkey and waited a half hour - only to be told then that the kitchen had run out of turkey - and we should now choose something else... when we objected and indicated our intention to leave, waiter returned to tell us the kitchen had suddenly "found" exactly two more turkey dinners and if we wait more we could have those. Found Where? - the freezer ?, the dumpster? Ick.. no thank you. Observed other guests disappointed with menu options and dishes. Stay away. read more

We had a great dinner while staying here for my birthday. I had the special butternut squash raviolis and my husband had the duck. Both were very good. We ended the meal with the chocolate bag for two. It was so good. The ambiance and service were both great. I'd definitely recommend this restaurant. Be sure to make reservations here if you're in the area. read more

The Spa at the Christmas Tree Inn is a hidden treasure! When I go on vacation I always make it a point to plan a Spa day. I've been coming to this area for years. I was lucky to find this Spa on this trip. First, the facility is gorgeous! So clean, inviting, and roomy. I was impressed by the quality of products they offered. I was further impressed by kind, accommodating staff. Truly a great bunch of people. I had two services provided to me this visit. I had a body scrub and I had a massage. It was a package deal they offer on their website. My therapist was just amazing. She welcomed me to the Spa, informed me of what to expect, and was well skilled in her therapy process. Very professional! It was a wonderful day at the Spa. I would highly recommend. Prices were exactly what I would expect for the service rendered. I'll be back next year and will make it a point to book another treatment at the Spa. read more

We were very satisfied with the service and meal at Christmas Farm Inn. We went on a Saturday so it was game night which I was excited about. However the menu has a lot of game options so you could go any night and still get good game. We started with the venison lettuce wraps. Very delicious, definitely use the sauce they provide on the side - it adds great flavor. Would have liked the lettuce wrap to be more substantial with a bigger leaf or double leaf. For our meals we tried 4 dishes and finished every last drop in our plate. I had a game night special Venison Medallions and cannot emphasis enough on how perfectly this was cooked and the amount of flavor. My fiancé got the Elk stuffed with onion and bacon which was also good, but there wasn't much meat on his as it was 2 very very thin elk wraps. Both came with green beans and a lovely white beet I'd never had before. The fingerling potatoes and mashed were also good. Our friends got the mushroom risotto and the salmon which they liked very much. We also tried the ginger root beer. Good but definitely leaves a kick in your throat, I'd say you really have to like ginger to get this. I do so I enjoyed it a lot! Overall, good service, homey feel with rustic decor, unique menu selection, and good food. Would recommend for a family, group of friends, or even a romantic date night. read more

I have tried calling there many times... It is very difficult to get anyone on the phone that wants to take a reservation or you can get a gift card for. We ordered a gift card for my daughter it came with the dinner certificates only and not the gift card for the room. They said they would email it with 48 hours before Christmas, They did not mail it. It's January 2nd and my wife said they mailed it out on the 23rd of December. We still have not received it. I told the woman on the phone she should try calling to make a reservation or get someone on the phone. It obvious to me they don't give a shit. The place is so nice. To bad their service is so bad. They must be doing so well that they could careless. Their answer for not getting the room certificate was well, that's the US mail for you. No apologies. This is the last time we go there ourselves or purchase anything else. Too bad. read more

The food here is amazing. I declared that the French fries were the Socratic ideal to which all other fries aspire to emulate, but my wife said that that's a little over the top. I stand by it, though. The "chocolate bag" is an amazing experience to be shared. If you have the opportunity, or any excuse, to eat or stay at the Christmas Farm Inn, you should take it. Everything about the experience is amazing. read more

They forgot my salad. My wife's chicken dish was dry and tough. I had salmon and it was overcooked and just ok. I thought with new ownership their food would improve but not yet. It's still average at best. read more

Food was not good. Service slow. People were nice and the ambience is nice, but a waste of money. The steak was worse than Applebees.

Visited June 5th for dinner. Excellent atmosphere, great food. Our waitress Flavia, was attentive and fun. Try the schnitzel!

Note that this review is just for the RESTAURANT ONLY. I had no experience staying in the Inn. My husband snagged a coupon off of Restaurant.com for $12 for $75 toward a meal there (we had to spend at least $150). The website sells the restaurant REALLY well with delectable food photos and the environment looks nice and cozy but not super fancy and the food looks excellent and elegantly prepared. And based on the prices and "what people are saying" we fell for it and expected a lot from our experience. Well...unfortunately it didn't live up to its promises. He took me there for my birthday this past Columbus Day weekend on Friday night October 9th, which should be one of the busiest nights of the year but the first bad sign was that there were lots of empty tables. Not good. Second bad sign: The decor was like an old country buffet place.....bright lighting...no ambiance. Ugh. The food was actually pretty good which was a saving grace but not great. I was also super hungry so I think everything tastes super good when that happens. ;-) This place was way overpriced for what it was. Our total bill ended up being $180 including tax and tip which was only bearable since we had that $75 gift certificate. But that did get us two apps, two entrees, two desserts, a bottle of red wine and a bottle of dessert wine. Not too shabby but I would expect that to cost more like $140 or so including tax and tip and I would expect that type of restaurant to spend a lot more time on the decorations and ambiance and service. I'd go here if you want a good down home meal which is trying to be fancy and your budget is $25 dollar entrees. It might be very good with lunch and breakfast which hopefully have more reasonable prices. Maybe I'm a restaurant snob (which is true) and a harsh critic but I couldn't get past the poor environment complete with a teenager playing video games at the table when my husband and I are trying to have a romantic meal. I won't be going back. Sorry Christmas Tree Inn. read more

We made a reservation as required however we didn't need it. Maybe it was b/c it was Wednesday or Veteran's Day, but at 7pm we were one of three couples seated which worked out well b/c we all wanted booths and that's how many they had. It is possible that b/c they are an Inn and a restaurant, reservations are required b/c they prioritize their guests first. Once the site of the local lock up this subtle yet esteemed offering provides ambience and comfort. Beautiful sight lines and hard woods make the place feel warm and homey. Candle light at each table. Slow jazz playing in the background. One of 13 restaurants in Jackson but a true hidden gem. The bread came out first. Made on-site, crusted with herbs and spices, served warm and cut into various sizes accompanied by a homemade cranberry butter...unbelievable and they will bring you as much as you want complimentary. I had the turkey dinner which was everything you want your Thanksgiving dinner to look and taste like. "Just like Mom used to make it." Turkey was moist and all white meat. The mashed potatoes were delicious and homemade, as was the stuffing and turkey gravy which pulled all the flavors together. The real kicker though was the homemade cranberry sauce. Never had better in my life! Sorry Aunt Lisa :-( My beautiful wife had the maple pecan crusted salmon with mashed potatoes. The salmon must have been at least 12oz, it was cooked perfectly and the pecans were deliciously caramelized. Both meals were also served with julienned zucchini, squash and carrots which were steeped in butter. Delicious! For dessert, we had to choose The Chocolate Bag. Probably not the most succulent item we could have gone with but given the occasion we indulged in the novelty. Def. worth it, just have 3-4 people with you if you want to finish it. As for the service, it's hard to judge b/c the place was almost empty but we did overhear a conversation between a patron and the waitress. The patron was apparently a vegetarian and the broth used to make the risotto was chicken stock. The waitress comp'd the entire bill. Not fully sure it was even her mistake as the patron offered to pay for the misunderstanding. Says a lot about their character though. Prices were more than fair. Next time we are in the area we most certainly will return to the Christmas Farm Inn. read more

The food is very good but the service is VERY slow. We were seated at 6:30 on a Saturday night. It was 25 minutes before a waiter came to take our drink order, and that was after we asked another waiter to fetch our waiter. Lord knows how long we would have waited if we hadn't asked. After we placed our food order it was a half hour before our appetizer arrived (roasted brie which was very good). It was another 15-20 minutes after that our meals came. I had the veal schnitzel with mashed potatoes, my wife had their burger. My schnitzel was great, deep fried, not chewy, nice flavor with a brown mushroom gravy. The mashed potatoes had a good flavor, hearty, good consistency, some potato skin mixed in. Really good tarragon carrots, soft, not hard, but not mushy either. My wife wasn't impressed with the burger. She said it was just OK. I didn't try them but the fries that came with the burger looked very mediocre. So, for the money, the food was good, I wouldn't recommend the burger, but if you don't like waiting, don't go here. read more

Hard to beat a free dinner! Their "buy one get one free" entrée special on Monday is a fantastic deal. The food is well prepared and the portions are huge. We were able to split a Caesar salad and both have plenty. The crab bisque was good though I was hoping for a larger pieces of crab. The turkey dinner is a slice of Thanksgiving. My pistachio crusted salmon has a great flavor, but was a touch over cooked. The decor inside is lovely and warm. The service was very friendly, prompt, and helpful. We'll definitely be back if we are in the area again. read more

Went to Christmas Farm Inn for dinner a couple nights ago. The ambiance was perfect. Nice and quaint and rustic. All things that I love. The Cider appletini I had with my Turkey dinner was delicious and the stuffed mushrooms we had for our our app where very yummy. For dessert I ordered ice cream and didn't realized it was spiked with rum. It was a pleasant surprise. All in all my experience here for a romantic dinner was great. read more

Ate here twice during our stay. Atmosphere is great, food is amazing. Highly recommend!!

A long time favorite that has only gotten better with the seasons. Exceptional food and lodgings. The daily specials are to die for. On this night we had the turkey dinner and we were treated to one of the best such dinners I have ever had (sorry mom). Honestly, if you are looking to capture the old New Hampshire charm come to Jackson and stay here!! Between the accommodations (with included breakfast) and the incredible dinners you will be taken back to a time when people counted and food was more than your next meal!! read more

A must visit while in Jackson. Popular so make a reservation. Check out their nightly menu for your favorite type of food. We dinned out of season on a Saturday night and it was busy. Our test meal at any new restaurant to us includes French onion soup, calamari and risotto. Each was excellent. Servings were surprisingly large for a menu so varied. Server was professional but not into impressing how worldly they were. One goof, we asked the hostess for a bottle of their mineral water and she offered a large bottle of Pelegreno, perfect! The waiter brought two cans of a fruit flavoured Pelegreno with limes in the glasses. Thank goodness for a nice reasonably priced white wine. read more

Amazing place to go. The bar is super cozy, small for around 20-22 people. The bartender was amazing in fact we spotted for a drink after a day in the mountain, and we decided to go back for dinner. Food was outstanding totally unexpected. . Definitely a jewel in this small town. read more

Went here today for the first time with my girlfriend. Service was stellar and attentive. Started with the scallops which were to die for, as well as the coconut shrimp which was the perfect combination of crunch and tender shrimp. With a perfect hint of coconut. For entrees my girlfriend ordered the blackened Salmon which was 10/10. A ton of flavor and perfect texture. I had the scampi which I could say the same for, the shrimps were big and flavorful along with a very nice zesty sauce. The food was clearly fresh with quality ingredients. And to finish the crème brûlée was exquisite. Would 100% recommend and will be returning. Also 2 for 1 entrees which naturally made it taste better! read more
