Almost every single post was a their only post. They used the same words to describe it over and over and they always spelled Wolfeboro right. There were two multiple posters and they both sounded believable. The other posters did not.

This is a chronic problem with Trip Advisor and similar sites, you need to be really careful. A large grain of salt is advisable Although few really praised the food.

Used judiciously Trip Advisor can be helpful...but I rely on their hotel comments more than the restaurant comments.

I agree. To go off topic and show you reviews that would make the Inn seem a 5-star restaurant check out reviews for Pelletier Loggers Family Restaurant in Millinocket, Maine - WOW.

We love the Thompson House Eatery and have made an annual trip in the fall up to Jackson to eat there. I'm thrilled that the chef from there is now at the Inn. I can't believe the new manager is not on top of the service problems. I would like to trust that the current reviews on Trip Advisor are accurate and reflect changes brought about by the new manager. He came onboard in Dec. so has had time enough for there to have effected some real improvement on the service side of things. My last complaints were realted to a large event that took place in Dec. I'll be attending another event there this week. I'll let you know if I observe anything different.

Default Wolfeboro Inn

Congratulations on the pending arrival of Mr Hoke Wilson as the new Executive Chef. I look forward to his arrival and his imprint on the food service at the Inn

The very fact that he is in charge of food service leads me to believe that he will address both the food (which hasn't been that bad) and the service (which has been that bad). My guess is that if he is in charge of the kitchen, and the kitchen is preparing good quality food, he will not want the overall dining experience to be tainted by poor service so he will make every effort to see that the service is improved to parallel the quality food. After all, he has a reputation to protect and doesn't want poor service to reflect poorly on the kitchen.

This is a good move by management. Thank you.
