The picture shows how big it was. Good tasting and plenty enough for a complete lunch. My wife got the burger with a side of sweet potato fries. Look at how large the side was very large. The burger was cooked perfectly. Unfortunately the bottom half of the bun were soggy and fell apart making it difficult to hold and eat the burger. I would return.

Upscale pub food, served inside, or (when weather permits, even well into the fall) outside. Comfy…read morechairs, nooks and sofas, this is a place to sit back and enjoy food with friends. Well trained staff and a responsive kitchen make this a reasonable destination. That's not to say that the food is always great -- some things are good, some pretty standard and not special. But the atmosphere is nice, and the food is at worst solid. Things that are particularly good include the sweet potato fries, gluten-free options on most dishes (for those who need them), and the various entrées (things like steak and scallops). Things that weren't so good include salads (made with bagged lettuce? and really nothing special), and the broccoli cheddar soup. I recommend looking around at what others are eating before ordering ... get what they do well and you'll be happy.

Mixed great and good food, in a very pleasant ambiance, at really high prices…read more The oysters were wonderful, not only perfect flavor and presentation but almost no grit and fully detached from their shells. I go on about that because it's rare. The crudo was very good; the lobster salad interesting but not that lobster-ry. And for a very light supper -- 12 oysters, 2 apps, a bread plate, a beer, a seltzer, and a coffee, $85 each felt rich. Other goods for Redcan are 1) WRJ needs places like this, 2) the lighting is pleasant too, 3) the jazz on the speakers was lovely and though the place was almost full we could converse easily. Lastly 4) our server McKenna was great; helpful and friendly. So it's def a great addition to the White River Junction scene, as a splurge.

Started with the Butter Board plus homemade chips with onion dip and I had a steak that was fantastic.

Couple others got the salmon which looked perfectly cooked and the service was absolutely great. Super friendly and just the right amount of attentiveness.

I had the halibut and salad, which were delicious and both made great use of locally grown blueberries. The kids didn't appreciate the pasta with butter and cheese having homemade pasta; they didn't like that it was a more difficult shape to eat than a standard penne-like pasta. But I tried it and thought it was unusually delicious for that standard kid dish. And very reasonably priced, too. Several menu items I didn't get to try sounded great, too. Sorry that I won't have a chance to go back on our trip.

The worst thing about Skunk Hollow is how the bill is padded…read more They CHARGE TEN DOLLARS ($10 )for a small basket of BREAD!!! Next , they will charge you for a glass of water. I like the place and the food is not great but it is usually at least okay. But the meal starts off with a bad taste when they charge for bread which is FREE almost everywhere else. And there's nothing special about the bread! Come on Skunk Hollow, you are treating customers like airlines do! Will you have to pay to use the toilets soon? How about charging for use of the forks and knives? You take advantage of the fact that people are most hungry when they arrive and more likely to give in to your unforgivable greed. I know others who don't want to go there just because of the obscene BREAD CHARGES! It's insulting

The root beer float caught our attention and we enjoyed it so much and was not concerned our meals have not arrived yet. The Tuna Melt on Rye was moist and the rye bread toasted to perfection. The Haddock Bed was another good choice. The service was very friendly. Lucky for those who will move into the condo being built next to this unpretentious diner!

Upon arrival, the hostess said they did not have any tables or reservations. She was super accommodating and was able to move some things around. We had to wait about 30 minutes but we were patient since she was willing to work with us and we really wanted to eat here! The server was fantastic and provided water and bread. My brother had a lemonade. We started with an order of calamari. I then had the chicken parm while my brother had the ribs. He swears it was the best he ever had. I got a piece of carrot cake to go and ate it when I got back to our hotel. Everything was fresh and delicious. We even got a surprise as a train passed and shook the whole dining room. It was a great experience overall!

We didn't have a reservation and the wait was going to be 90 minutes long... Luckily we were able to find seats in the bar! Bartender Marty was great and got our orders in right away. We were happy to listened to him that the half portion is a good size for 1 person. Between the 4 of us, we ordered steamed mussels, half speghetti and meatballs, half chicken ala vodka, and grilled salmon. Before dinner, we were served with warm bread with maple butter - that was sooo good. All the dishes were solid, but our fav was the homemade strawberry apple crisp. They hit it out of the park, delicious!! Even with the half orders, we still had leftovers of the speghetti to take home. Reasonably priced, you won't be disappointed.

Talk about food! Well, I traveled with my friend (2 hours) to her medical appt. I was up early…read moreand no time for breakfast as we had to be on time. Check in was a long process. Finally, she gets called in for her 10:00 appt. Almost two hours later we were done and both starved. This place, "The Fort" was recommended to us by the greeters at the Dartmouth Hitchcock medical ctr. WOW! It was exactly what we wanted. GPS said we had arrived, but where the heck is it? I remembered that we were told you had to drive around the back. She was hesitant. Yup, that's a gas station...keep going. We landed. Walked in... It was like going to a back room of a place where illegal things take place, I guess we used the wrong door, lol! Upon entering the actual diner, you are greeted with a display case of muffins and donuts that are about the size of your head! Just around the corner are pies. We were immediately seated. The table next to ours was a man eating a HUGE breakfast! BISCUITS AND GRAVY! Oh my, that looked delicious! Yup, that's what I ordered! Two scrambled eggs sat atop of that. This plate was HUGE! Best I have ever had.... and I finished almost the entire plate. My friend had lunch. She kept remarking that she was eating a "real" hamburger!!!! It was cooked to perfection! Our only complaint was that our meals were not hot, which was odd because we waited an awfully long time for our food. BUT, it was well worth the wait! Service was good and ambience in my opinion was good too. On the inside, it reminded me of a log cabin. Overall great experience! Sadly, I couldn't leave without some of their enormous baked goods. ...Sigh... I am just so weak!"...

When we walked in to The Fort diner, they were playing Bocephus (Hank Williams, Jr.) , and now…read morethey're playing Patsy Cline and maybe that's at least half of the charm of this diner-hidden-inside-of-a-gas station, here. But first, when you drive in, you will never think there is a restaurant here! And once you walk in, you definitely think you misunderstood the term, "restaurant." But keep walking to the back and towards the right, and you'll find a door that opens up to a whole, charming, old-fashioned slice of historic Lebanon, NH country restaurant. You can get breakfast, lunch or dinner here, and breakfast is served all day. So, unless you are looking for 24-hour breakfast at Denny's, this is the most awesome homestyle diner to eat at up through 6:30pm-ish (it clears out by 7:45 i think). There is a lot of charm to be had, here, including friendly waitresses and cantankerously-charming cooks. And did I mention that I loved the vintage country music?! :) There is a narrow U-shaped counter here with a fair amount of counter seating. Our server was fast and friendly. We really enjoyed it when one of the cooks came out who has just the right amount of self-depricating humor if you dare to banter with him. The hot cakes and biscuits are cooked on a real cast-iron griddle, here, and you can taste that flavor and how good it is. The biscuits are like nothing I've seen: cast iron grilled corn meal and wheat maybe? Not sure. They look like hamburger buns but have the mouth feel of a nice, firm cornbread - though not as sweet. Our biscuit was overcooked but if I get back there, next time I'll ask for it toasted light. This biscuit did have a good and unique flavor. You might ask for your hot cakes cooked light, as well, because one of those came out dark. And we had to send back the first order of pancakes because one was dark on the outside but raw batter burst through. It we go back and get our dishes served less brown I will upgrade my rating because I was delighted with The Fort, otherwise. We got a double side of mashed potatoes and gravy as an appetizer and it was delicious! They have an almost-whipped but definitely substantial feel, yet also firm and so buttery. Very good! You can tell the cooks put a lot of work into this food and that comes across in the flavors. We ordered a breakfast called the Lumberjack and it was gigantic! Two eggs, 3 slices of fresh, crispy bacon, big sausage patties, 2 gigantic slices of rye toast and well-seasoned potatoes. There was a very subtle taste of garlic seasoning and I loved it! The bacon was my favorite: tasty - oversized and light in flavor - vs. some of the real country bacon I've tasted a few times around here. Their sweet tea is good. It tastes like the homemade version of what Country Time Lemonade was modeled after. Their two dessert cases definitely serve up some tasty treats: homemade muffins, cruellers, donuts, pies, oversized brownies and gigantic coconut squares (chocolate chips, concise slivers, Oreo cookies and tons of other sweet goodies layered in). You can order 3 different types of pie slices for the same price of a half of a pie. We ordered: 1. Coconut Custard: sweet, coconut throughout the custard, with even sweeter whipped cream 2. Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie: smooth and sweet peanut butter filling with a very present flavor of Hershey's syrup. This is good and tastes like flavors i haven't enjoyed for decades. You will not find this anywhere else. 3. Cherry Pie: perfectly tart, round and plump cherries with a sweet sauce. I love that the cherries aren't over-baked and drowning in a sea of sauce in half sizes. The pie crust is thick and buttery. Order to go items by 7:30pm at the latest. Or be seated by 6:30pm latest because when they close at 8pm, customers are leaving by 7:45pm.
