Heartily agree with the comment that there are so many better places to go in the Lakes Region. My husband and I went a couple of weeks ago on our vacation with a group of 10-not our choice, but others wanted to go there. Seated downstairs--our group had 2 well-behaved pre-teens, but we were near several noisy groups with young, not so well-behaved children.

Thought they had stopped serving the bread-in-a-bag as we didn't get any. Food and service were very average. We found the same a couple of years ago when we went with the same group.
After two other wonderful evenings during this vacation, at The Corner House and Lavinia's--absolutely no comparison!! I know it has lots of fans and always seems to be busy when we drive by, but we both said we would not go back to Canoe again.
