This was our first visit to Tavern on the Glen. When we walked in, it was SUPER LOUD, and we asked the person who seated us (we were later told he was the owner) if they could turn it down a little. He said it would be lowered. We didn't at the time realize it was from their live entertainment for the evening, and sadly, it was so loud that we really had to (almost) scream to have a conversation. There was only one other table that did not appear to be friends and/or relatives of the band, dining while we were there. The food was good and a reasonable value but overall, unremarkable. Our server, Cotty, and the lady helping her both did a wonderful job and made us feel welcomed. I do not see a return trip anytime in our future.

they were too short staffed on Mothers day. Too much time to get drinks, food or other requests. Food was excellent but servers were either too busy or not on the ball
