I’ve been to several Supper Club evenings, and thoroughly enjoy each one. I being different friends each time, and no one is disappointed. Love that we have this available in our town. Owners are great, genuinely kind and ensure every detail is attended to. The food is full of creative combinations, and is locally sourced / tied to the season. The chef is down-to-earth, and the stories about each course are very interesting - why he chose it, how he sources it, other ways to use the ingredients at times. It is simply nice to be with a crowd of other foodies. I plan to attend many more Supper Clubs.

The place is beautiful. The food was great. The ambiance was wonderful. The 5 course dinner last Friday was very good and fun. My favorite was the green salad and the duck. This is a great addition to our neck of the woods.
