The Coe House

SAMIAM · 02-27-2007, 03:04 PM

Lucky,you're information is pretty much right on.Both of the new owners have very strong restaurant experience and I guess Luke will turn it into a showplace with his decorating skills.Sorry ,I can't give you any clues about the new menu,but knowing John, it should be very interesting.

to Lucky's other comment add Lemon Grass and Kevin's also so four really good restaurants within one mile can they all make it through the winter. I hope so as a summer person only so that there are more great options for eating

I am so glad that Luke and Ann have a part of this! Should be great! The Coe House was never a first choice,too loud inside food was just OK. Keeping my fingers crossed no common man ****! Again looking forward to a great new place to go! Best of luck see you in the summer!

Sorry Salty,
When I joined this forum it was to share info with all who cared about the lakes region. I don't think individuals should be criticized or cut down in public in this space. Personaly I enjoyed the food at the Coe house and the ex-chef has gone from 51 Mill St, to Canoe, to "O" (all with glowing reviews). The restaurant was created with incredible attention to detail and its only problem was going seasonal. The Common Man has it's place too, but I'm happy that Center Harbor is dominated by a unique group of chef/owners. Don't forget that the grand-daddy here is the VK and I love breakfast!

I have personally called Common Man and told them that they should respond to this forum. Their restaurants have become mediocre (at best) and management plainly does not care. Everyone has their opinions about who is good and who is not. This is an open forum and everyone is free to express their opinion...good or bad.

Just my 2 cents

I am so happy that the Coe House will be reopening. I enjoyed eating there and it was a loss when they shut down. I agree with Saltydog that there are enough Common Man restaurants in the area. New blood is good for the entire business as it demands that standards are kept high. It's also great to have so many good restaurants in Center harbor.

The "new" Coe House is opening late April from what I hear. The atmosphere and decoration is definitely upgraded and the food should be at least as good as before. It will be fun to find out!

phoenix · 04-09-2007, 07:59 AM

let us all know after you try the place

fatlazyless · 04-09-2007, 10:34 AM

I'd probably feel like a weirdo eating there by myself, plus it's way too expensive for me. (Lightbulb-idea-flash)....hey.....any wealthy, hi-energy, physically fit-good looking' 40's or low 50's rich widows out there want to take me out to the new and improved Coe House for it's reopening? Will shave and shower and wear a clean shirt!

Yeah, that's right, something like Carmen Diaz and John Candy!

Now let me get this straight - fatlazyless is looking for thinenergeticmore?

beancover · 05-15-2007, 04:38 PM

Has anyone tried it since it opened under new ownership? Inquiring minds want to know. Please post.

Does anyone know if the menu is available online anywhere? I have two very picky eaters in my family and I always like to know what to expect.

Thanks.

I have dined there on 2 occasions. Food was great again. Service was great but you do need to have patience with the younger staff. Although the staff might be a little inexperienced they more then make up for it by trying so hard to please and will improve as they gain experience. Décor is fantastic. Great bar on second floor looks to be a great place to watch the game with some friends.

Just got back from our first meal at the new Coe House. In one word awesome! The decor was elegent yet relaxed. The wait staff was incredibly personal, enthusiastic, and helpfull. The food was great! Superb scallop appetizer, the best bread ever, good salad, great steak w/onion strips, and to die for

desserts. We'll be back on a regular basis. The only tough thing to stomach was the Red Sox loss to the Yankee's.
