Its fun to sit outside this year with beautiful views of the lake while you eat your breakfast. Service is great, even with the servers having to run up & down the stairs from the kitchen out to the tables! Tip them well, please!

I celebrated my graduation earlier this evening in this great place. happy to tell that we enjoyed a incredible evening and the place was definitely one of the reasons for this strong meeting. The waiters participated in a graceful manner, the cooking was delicious and my guests were very delighted. We shall absolutely come back again for more celebrations. thanks very much.

Went for the first time this past weekend. Staff was friendly and breakfast was delicious. Ordered blueberry pancakes and they were a great portion. Fruit cup was fresh and yummy. Their omelettes were a great portion as well.

For years as weekenders this has been our favorite breakfast place and it continues to be now that we are locals. Its a family and extended family tradition. The service is always fantastic. They hire local kids from the area who always seem to be happy to be there. Someday Id like my kids to work there! The food is always good. Weve had everything on the menu. The prices are very reasonable. My personal favorites are the blueberry pancakes or the western omelet (with sausage instead of ham). The owners are super friendly. Were always greeted with a big hello and a smile. The little gift shop downstairs is a must visit. They have not just souvenirs but items from local artists too. When the restaurant at Ames Farm Inn is open and we get to visit, its one of our happy places.

Went up to visit friends who had a cabin on the lake for the weekend. I had driven by before but never seen how much the place had to offer! Beautiful lakefront views and a well kept property to enjoy. Cabins are cozy but quite spacious with room for guests. I would return!

They were so accomidating. We had to check in super late due to a concert and they waited up for us not even the slightest hint of annoyance. Its amazing the Age of the place I love that it has history. Being on the lake makes it that much more awesome. The room was clean and a great size. It was very comfortable. The inn also serves breakfast which was so good and reasonably priced. The staff was timely and kind and made sure to check in on you (but not too much). Definitely a great experience and would love to stay with themagain! !

I didnt stay in a room, but a group of us came here for breakfast. They had all the traditional breakfast items like eggs, toast, bacon, sausage, a variety of omelets, pancakes, French toast, and some others. We all loved our meals, and the prices were good, too. After, I took a walk down to the waters edge. The scenery is beautiful. It is on Lake Winnipesaukee, but it is on a smaller part of the lake, so you dont feel overwhelmed. There is a swimming area and some boats docked. There is also a large grassy area that looks ideal for picnics, frisbee, or whatever else you feel like doing. If youre in the area, I would suggest stopping by at least once for breakfast or lunch and just seeing how beautiful it is.

I went to Ames Farm to get breakfast with my family. The eggs, pancakes, French toast and normal toast were all delicious! The hashbrowns could probably have used a lot less seasoning and we all pushed ours to the side. Other than that the food was all amazing, great service, and great atmosphere! Absolutely adorable location and so scenic.

My family has been coming here every Memorial Day weekend for something like 80 years. Its the most relaxing and family friendly experience you will ever find. You really cant beat the experience. Its truly one of a kind.

Review №38

Came in for breakfast by boat. The table was great... right by the window with a nice breeze. The omelettes were overcooked. French toast was mediocre at best. They claim they use real maple syrup but I doubt it. Bacon was very thin. The toast on my breakfast sandwich was burned. Overall, very mediocre food in a moderately nice setting.
