Our buffet included chicken Francaise, baked fish, sausage and peppers with tomato sauce, roasted potatoes, green beans, noodles, salad (delicious raspberry vinegraitte dressing), rolls, and make-your-own ice cream. Everything was the right temperature and tasty. Show and meal cost $35 per adult, very reasonable. The set design was fun! Performances of every character were excellent! The acoustics and the musicians perfectly complemented the show. Mamma Mia and Hello Dolly are upcoming shows. I can't wait!

I love…read morethe setup -- dinner first, then the first half of the show, dessert, and then the rest of the show. It keeps the night flowing and makes it feel like a full experience. The theatre itself is nice and simple, and I like that you pick your table ahead of time. From the moment we sat down, every staff member greeted us, which was such a nice touch. They walked us through how the night would go, and everything felt super organized. For appetizers, we had mac and cheese and bruschetta -- both solid choices. The mac and cheese was simple but tasty, and the bruschetta was fresh and flavorful. For entrées, we went with the salmon (roasted potatoes & string beans) and the filet mignon (same sides). The salmon was a little overcooked, and I do wish we could have picked our own sides, but it wasn't a dealbreaker. Everything was still good. Dessert was hands down the highlight. The apple crisp and brownie sundae were amazing. And then the show... wow. The acting, the singing, the dancing; all fantastic. They absolutely crushed Footloose! Definitely recommend this place if you want dinner and a show all in one. I'd go again in a heartbeat. 1000000000/10 recommend.

Theatre was warm but I honestly think it was due to the sell out crowd. Due to the table set up - you felt close to everyone around you. It doesn't make sense that the tables do not face the stage - it makes it uncomfortable. We were seated with ppl not in our party - they were friendly but not enough space. The play was great - live music was a fun edition. Overall a good experience and will definitely come again. We will just be more strategic where we sit.

We could over hear him boring the table behind us for over 1/2hr about his youth and baseball while our food sat in the back getting cold. I finally said something to another server. Which she assured us that the food comes out fresh. His manager had to stop by and correct his behavior. Interesting, that although our food wasn't ready after the manger spoke with him he walked in the back and instantly came out with Luke warm food. I think there is a reason the median age of the clientele is 85. If you are 85yrs old and hate flavor and love lousy service, then you found your spot. If not don't eat here.

Whatever problems people reported back then have been corrected by Richard and Dawn, who arrived after those bad reviews and turned things around. I hosted happy hours with buffet dinners two nights in a row this summer for over 100 members of a national organization. This is a first rate operation. The coordination with Richard and Dawn was timely, flawless, and very collegial. We visited twice for coordination and to vette the place - Dawn and/or Richard met us both times and stayed with us as long as we needed. They even opened the bar early just for two of us - bartender Steven was superb also for the banquets and our recons. Two of us stopped by unannounced a month or so before our event while on a trip to visit our bus company and dined at Fern and Fable - it was "Fabelous." Richard met with us without an appointment. That dinner helped me pick the amazing food for the banquets. Dawn and Richard were present for both banquets to ensure everything went smoothly to include the audio visual. Everything went off like like a well oiled machine. There is plenty of on-site parking. Their staff was first rate. and the value is exceptional. I received an overwhelming number of positive comments from our attendees such as: * WOW!!! How did you find this place!!! * This is the best annual banquet and facility we have ever had. * The (various menu items) was fantastic. Before dinner, someone gave me a snarky comment of "well, I'll bet we aren't having lobster" to which I replied, "actually, we are." I received a lot of great comments on the amazing lobster mac and cheese that was chock full of lumps of tender lobster. My colleague who attended both banquets and the impromptu amazing dinner at Fern and Fable was so impressed that he plans to have his daughter's wedding there - and that is a 4 hour drive from his house!
