The food was very good. The venison Wellington was really good - the venison was cooked perfectly, though the phyllo was a bit soggy - could be because of the delicious sauce. The seasonal soup is well worth trying. Specials should be mentioned up front as that nights special was not on the menu that we received. Learned about it after we placed the order. Otherwise very good…though a bit pricey as others mentioned.

First, the hotel itself is beautifully decorated for the holidays, and the Garden Room restaurant has a lovely ambience. The service is warm and friendly, and attentive for the most part. However, the food was a massive disappointment. Almost every dish was either undercooked, overcooked, cold, or lacked culinary imagination. For the (extremely high) price point, it was simply not good enough. I would actually go so far as to say the price is offensive for the quality of food, and has put me off ever staying at the Mayflower Inn. It’s a real shame.

The Garden Room was a highlight of my “Gilmore Girls” trip. The food was delicious and service was great. The design and decor was beautiful. They even provided a map of things to do that were inspired by the show. I will definitely come again.

The inn was beautiful and the service was good. Extremely overpriced. For the amount of money for the entrees the food should be outstanding. We ordered espresso martinis for desert and one of the martini glasses had a crack down the side of the glass and leaked all over the table. The bartender prepared another martini but I’m not sure how that wasn’t caught before being served to us. Overall a disappointing experience.

Open omelette was tasty. Beignets were undercooked and some still raw inside. French toast lacked flavor and tasted only like bread. Seasoned fruit bowl would have been more tasty without the seeds. Crabcake Benedict was mushy. Service was lacking, aside from the hostess who had to step in to help and was lovely.

Place was lovely but the service was sadly lacking. Not sure if they were tired but wasn’t as friendly as I was hoping. Shame
