Restaurant was a little loud, for and service were good the wait staff was friendly and very helpful. The Congress hall hotel is delightful to see and the shops on the main floor were interesting.

Great breakfast, possibly the best eggs I've ever had out. If you like strong coffee, get a cappuccino, the regular coffee is weak.

We enjoyed dinner and breakfast at the Blue Pig Tavern. For dinner we were seated in front of the fireplace and enjoyed a delicious meal of Sunday pot roast followed with coconut cream pie. For breakfast we sat out on the patio and again the food was picture perfect and delicious. Love the sausage! Bon appetit!

Delicious. I had the hangar steak. It was so flavorful and tender. The risotto that accompanied the steak had a savory curry flavor that was a beautiful pairing for the dish.

It was great. We sat ouside, which was beautiful! Again, this was part of our food tour, so we only had a brew (limited choices, but ok and nice mug) and an app to share. We had the calamari, which was the best we ever tasted with homemade tartar sauce (I even ate it and I don't like tartar sauce).... More

The waitstaff was very good. Good service. I found the breakfast to be quite good and filling. Dinners were very good as well, and presentation of the entrees were truly amazing and a delight for the eye.
