    Usually we have a great experience but today was horrible. Our service was some of the worst I’ve had. Waitress spilled an entire bottle of water all over our table, took insanely long to take our order so we put in for everything all at once, our drinks (3 coffees) took over 20 MINUTES to arrive. Our appetizer arrived before our coffees—-a cold strawberry waffle for the table. My sister ordered a Prosecco initially and didn’t receive it until right before her ENTREE. We had orders that were screwed up but we were all so hungry at that point. The fries were atrocious. Crisped to death and cold. Portions of fries were completely different on the plates. Server pretty much disappeared so we all spent most of brunch trying to find her. We wanted to pay the bill and get out of there. I literally eat there all the time so this was a complete surprise and I was super embarrassed because I made the reservation and it was a disaster. Not quite the ‘fun brunch’ I was hoping for.

    Summer House was very lively and service oriented. If you visit, there mustn't be a single menu item the kitchen doesn't put their hearts into. Recommended for all patrons and families with space for everyone. A proud addition to our yearly reservations for that one special occasion.

    I ordered the most delicious fish and chips. Fish was moist and cooked to perfection. The coating was light and tasty. No heavy breading. The shoestring fries were excellent and much too many for one person. Our waitress was helpful in my selection of an entree. She was most gracious and friendly.

    Very nice atmosphere but the food was bland, the service was lacking and it was very noisy. Additionally, we didn’t receive an item in our order, brought it to the waitresses attention before she brought the bill, but were still charged for it. Overall just not a good experience.
