Waterfront dining at it's best! A beautiful Victorian Inn with outdoor waterfront seating on the wrap around verandah. The unrestricted Bay views and sunsets are unrivaled. "The food is as impressive as the view" - New York Times 2007. This award winning restaurant boasts the Hampton's first Platinum Chef, a title Executive Cheffe Colette took home in 2005.
The main building is circa 1850's and has been restored to it's optimal elegance, featuring the original carved molding around doors and windows in the dining room, and Brazilian cherry floors throughout. There are guest suites above the restaurant as well as individual villas on the property that are available by the day, week, or month. Our seafaring guests are welcome to arrive by boat and try up to our floating docks.

I was able to enjoy a nice quiet evening with my grandfather to celebrate St. Patrick's Day! We were also able to meet and talk to the Chef/owner of The Inn Spot on the Bay, which was really nice. The only reason it happened to be quiet was because of the pandemic we are dealing with. The food was delicious and the atmosphere was extremely charming and friendly. I look forward to return when it is packed :)

As always, The Inn Spot never fails. It was the beginning of their international festival which they do in the winter months. They opened with a French menu: delicious,hearty onion soup, followed by beef bourgoninn and then a divine baba au rhum and panda cotta with a hard,burnt sugar crust...yummy!

Excellent food! Service was excellent and I liked that that Chef Collette came around to the tables to say "hi" and to ask how the food was. Would refer this restaurant to all my friends and family. An outstanding dining experience.

We went to Inn Spot for Christmas of 2018. It was the first Christmas without my Mom and I wanted to do something different for my Dad and three children. The dinner was beyond exceptional for all 5 of us. (My husband had a fever and couldn’t join us). I raved extensively about the food to my husband and my Dad agreed that it was outstanding and worth the 50 minute drive. Only the three of us ventured here on Christmas Day 2019 and were disappointed for different reasons. Service is excellent. Location is beautiful. Dad said the goose wasn’t at all as good as the year before. It was “grainy and dry.” The stuffing for my turkey dinner had chunks of bread in it and did not seem to be thoroughly flavored or entirely mixed. The waiter had told my husband that a gingerbread chiffon dessert was actually a piece of gingerbread and not gingerbread flavored mousse. He enjoyed the mousse but we were confused about the description provided when we asked. Lovely ambiance. Lovely place. Felt bad that I hyped it up based on 5 perfect meals the year before. Excellent sized portions. Nice flavors. Reasonable price.

It was Xmas day, so our options were very limited. We tried the restaurant because it was one of the only places open. The view was very nice. The service was okay. The food was unremarkable. I didn’t hate it, but i don’t think I would go back.

The ambience was great. The food was not very good and not worth the price. Roast beef drowned in gravy. Lobster bisque was sealers not real lobster or not much real lobster the citrus salad was one piece of orange one piece of grapefruit on lettuce.

My wife and went out for our Anniversary. We made it just in time for an amazing Sunset. Followed by the best Hummus I've ever had. My wife had the crab bisque and the Tuna. The Tuna was perfectly seared. I had The Beef with mash potatoes, you can definitely tell everything is homemade here. To top it all off we shared a Waffalioni (Homemade waffle sandwich stuffed with cannoli cream). Can't wait to go back
