The holes are easy to find, although the leaves in the fall are a problem when it comes to losing balls. The only downside is the carts and the cart paths.

I was grateful to attend Tumble Brook Country Club in Bloomfield CT …read more It was set out to be an elaborate dinner for a party of 100. Not sure if their holding hot box did not hold proper temperature but all hot food came out lukewarm. The duck with parsnip purer was mediocre at best . The duck was not browned off enough and came out warm . Parsnip puree was excellent flavor but also cold . The vichyssoise soup was very lite to no leeks at all . Thank god it was served cold like it was supposed to be . The pollack was supposed to be halibut filet but we received some other mystery fish that was non digestible . It did have a very nice thermadore sauce that was on point . Again, it was all served cold with some rice pilaf that was NOT pilaf and 3 haricot vert beans that were peeled . Then the salad , it arrived cold as it should have Belgium Endive filled with blue cheese . The frisée did not help the dish along with the raspberry coulis , it was a raspberry coulis . Several components missing . The salad needed work . Then came the petite Filet Mignon ( cold) with an instant red sauce reduction of some sort that was cheated , baby carrots were good but cold & the French cut potato -all cold . The lemon sorbet was good , topped with a fresh raspberry with a brown sugar crust on the rim . The dessert course was vanilla ice cream with a pignoli tart . The icream of good quality creamy , tart was a bit dry and looking for the pignoli nuts . This was supposed to be a French Dining experience honor the father of cookery - George August Escoffier. Wine was paired with each course - some were winners and others were mediocre at best . Service was excellent , cocktail hour was on the money , the selection of seafood on ice was a winner , carving station of veal loin , pork loin with choice of sauces was very well executed . The passed horduurves were all very well done . The Italian charcuterie of cold cuts and cheeses were very good and displayed nicely . The gulf shrimp were perfect size and peeled - U-15 shrimp are always a home run . I don't do oysters - too much risk involved in oyster consumption. Please bring a flashlight as the parking lot at night has NO LGHTS . Good luck finding your car . Recommend going back and giving them a second chance. It is a hidden gem .

My wife and I scheduled a meeting with "Ines" who is the event planner and "David" who is the head chef for their events. They helped us coordinate exactly what we needed and the event went off without a hitch! (it was a reception for about 70 guests.) The room was decorated tastefully, the food was outstanding and the overall service was an 11 out of 10! The view of the golf course wasn't bad either! Thanks to Ines, David and the entire TB C/C staff! Kevin & Debbie M.

When you come in, it is down the stairs going down to the left. I like the view of the lake! This place is clean, has a lot of space, friendly employees and nice, traditional rock music that is set at the right sound level. They have an ALL DAY Happy Hour from Sunday - Thursday! That's unheard of. For my first drink, I'm having a Cosmopolitan. This is very good! It's a bit lighter than normal and not as strong, but I like it! A cosmopolitan, or informally a cosmo, is a cocktail made with vodka (Benedict's here), Cointreau, cranberry juice, and freshly squeezed or sweetened lime juice. For my first food item, I'm having the "Chef Salad." This is huge! For $7?! What a deal! It came out pretty quick. The bartender says there portion sizes are pretty big for Happy Hour. He got that right! It's healthy and low carb too. Vegetables are crisp. This is not a common item you see on a Happy Hour menu! Omg is this good ! Chef salad (or chef's salad) is an American salad consisting of hard-boiled eggs, one or more varieties of meat (such as ham, turkey, chicken, or roast beef), tomatoes, cucumbers, and cheese, all placed upon a bed of tossed lettuce or other leaf vegetables. Several early recipes also include anchovies. A variety of dressings may be used with this salad. I've made the claim I can down 7 items on the food menu. Let's see! For my next food item, I'm having Geno's Meatballs. This is actually the owner's (Geno) grandmother's recipe! These are fantastic! Beautiful presentation! For my next drink, I'm having the Margarita. This is nice! Sour mix is fresh. It tastes good and has nice presentation! For my next food item, I'm having the Traditional Deviled Eggs . These are great! The dish is cold and has great presentation! These are delicious ! Next up, I'm having the Bogner's Chili Cheese Dog. I haven't had a good hot dog in a long time! Here's the Bogner story: "William Bogner Sr. and his wife Helen migrated from Italy to New York in 1925. William began working for Hebrew National and other sausage facilities perfecting his craft. Moving to Manchester Connecticut with his new family (sons William Jr, and Donald) he built by hand his slaughter house. William and his family worked the slaughterhouse selling fresh beef to local meat processors. Making sausages and wine became a passion. Friends and family would often come over to eat and drink the home made vino and sausages. In 1965 sons William Jr and Donald built their meat processing plant on Wetherell Street Manchester and used their fathers recipes to make sausage products still made today. William Jr. sons Kurt, Robert, & David bought the business in 1992 and also acquired Stanleys Nutmeg Brand & Angellina Sausage company. When two large local meat company's (Union Meat& Lewis Beef) ceased operations the Bogners hired their butchers and took over their marquee accounts. This enabled Bogners to become a full line center of the plate specialist that still exist today. Our burger blends and cuts of meat are made to our customer specifications with quick turn time. This allows operators to free up capitol from inventory and keep fresh product on hand. In 2002 the Bogners also expanded into the high end pet food business. With the same dedication to quality and customer service both businesses operate independently to this day." The couple next to me is raving about the food! They ordered the chips and guacamole and salsa, twin whiskey BBQ pork quesadillas and Buffalo cheddar tater tots. Next up, I'm having the Shrimp Cocktail. These are good! Nice size! Love the cocktail sauce, lemon squeeze and the bed of arugula. Next up, I'm having the Vodka Mule. This is really good! It has a [very] strong ginger taste! A Moscow mule is a cocktail made with vodka, ginger beer and lime juice, garnished with a slice or wedge of lime and a sprig of mint. The drink is a type of buck and is sometimes called a vodka buck. For my next [2] items, I'm having the McCooe's Burger Slider and the Crispy Chicken Slider. OMG ! Look at this presentation! Each comes standard with a pickle and chips. These are yummy! For dessert, I'm having the "Hollow Hot Fudge Sundae" made with Royal Vanilla ice cream, dark chocolate ganache (1/2 for me), spiced nuts and Luxardo cherries . Ganache is a glaze, icing, sauce, or filling for pastries, made from chocolate and cream. Perfect !!! This place is the bomb !

We went on a Saturday (February) afternoon and it was pretty busy but we were able to snag a table. They were playing reggae music, the fire was going, beers/cider/wine were flowing; a fun and chill afternoon. They offer so many beers from all different breweries! I didn't really know what to expect before going and this place was on my "to check out" list. I was pleasantly surprised. I was happy they were kid friendly because we brought our two little ones. I saw some people eating pretzels and we got some delicious buttered popcorn to snack on. The kitchen offers wings, chips/salsas, lobster rolls, bratwurst/kielbasa, burgers, etc. They have food trucks onsite, but when we were there (early afternoon) I didn't see one yet. I can't wait to go back during the summer/fall because their yard looked fantastic. They had a small stage, picnic tables, and fire pits. For recreation, they have disc golf, Cornhole, etc. In the summer, they also serve ice cream. This place will definitely be one of my go to spots to chill!
