    Epoch has become our go-to place for Sunday brunch. Food is great including new menu additions. Christy and entire team are welcoming, professional and service-driven.

    Very limited menu. Food was average and overpriced. Service was subpar. We were seated and no one came to our table for 10 minutes. When server arrived, never introduced herself and greeted us with what do you want to drink? She mixed up our order. Even told us strawberry cheesecake for dessert and it was pineapple. Seemed very overwhelmed and inexperienced. Very disappointing experience for the money and 2.5 hours. Would not recommend.

    While the food was very good and our server was great, the main course took a long time to come out. There were not many people in the restaurant, so I’m not sure why it would take so long.

    Dinner on Saturday was terrific: Enjoyed the Paloma cocktail and the seared scallops. Our server, Sean, was excellent. Brunch on Sunday was also terrific, I enjoyed the avocado toast - i was eating "lightly" as I was going to a brunch event.... My only disappointment was that Epoch was not open for dinner on Sunday. I was hoping to try other items on the menu. I was staying in the Exeter Inn and not familiar with the area. But I walked into town and found a place.

    At dinner, my wife's lobster bisque was excellent, my crab cakes were disappointing as we were 30 minutes from the coast and my cakes had more filler than crab. We also had brunch on one of the following days and it was absolutely excellent.The staff were very professional, accommodating, polite and friendly.
