Merchants Row - Concord Tpke, Concord

Food was excellent. Service was lackadaisical. Waited 15 minutes in a low customer period and had to ask the hostess to send a waiter over. Could use some nice background music. Otherwise a very charming and pleasant experience.

Side salad consisted of a handful of lettuce thrown on my plate. No other vegetables, cheese or dressing. Service was non existent. We even had to flag down the manager to pay our bill after it was delivered to our table 15 minutes earlier. Definitely not the normal experience we generally have had here.

An amazing experience. We stayed at this lovely Inn while attending a graduation very convenient to Wellesley. We had a party of 7 and although Open table didn't show they could accommodate us, I made 2 reservations for 4 and 3. After speaking with the Maitre d he accommodated us offering the most ideal dining room area with a table for us all. The food was unexpectedly and surprisingly delicious. Our party sampled the steak, fish and chips, crab cakes, shrimp cocktail, mussels, cheese board, chicken pot pie, and pot roast. All were enjoyed and shared around the table. We enjoyed cocktails in the gentleman's pub before dinner and the service and drinks were well balanced, fairly priced, and served with a smile. After dinner sitting outside on the porch and side patios under the trees was a lovely way to wind up the evening. The atmosphere at Colonial Inn was serene and absolutely what you want from a New England experience. A great value and overall excellent stay.

We had lunch outside on the porch, a corner table under a big umbrella. Great weather, delicious food (shout out specifically to my turkey, Brie and arugula sandwich on cranberry focaccia). Deja vu old time New England Indian pudding with vanilla ice cream for dessert. Our server was friendly and responsive. Five stars.

We came for a late lunch, and our server heard that it was my husband's birthday, and then she surprised us with a slice of cake and a candle. A lovely gesture! The Colonial Inn is always a charming place for a meal.
