The younger, after work, bar and munchies crowd, is not the audience the Inn should be targeting if they want to stay in business as a fine dining room. Oh sure, the lure of quick money at the bar has a tendancy to obscure the larger view of the establishment as a whole. If the Inn cultivates the Tavern crowd they will effectively make themselves not attractive to families and mature diners. There are lots of examples of this right here in Wolfeboro - most notably the recent auction sale of 51 Mill Street; and, as an example of how a restaurant CAN be successful WITHOUT featuring the bar I point to Garwoods.

I'm sure this post will bother some people, but, time will tell.

Have a Happy New Year !!
