    We met with some old friends for a leisurely lunch and conversation. August, our server, was helpful, personable and professional. The food was terrific. Wine list was excellent. Setting lovely on a wintry December afternoon. We'll be back.

    Food great. As always enjoyed the experience. Server was good but not as good as you guys usually present. When I asked about special on menu, he read menu and did not offer much insight. I noted on reservation tjhat it was my dad’s birthday. You have always presented a dessert when special occasions noted but did not. No worries. I will be back. I love your restaurant but figured you would appreciate the feedback because I know you hold yourself to a very high standard and you have earned your status as one of the finest restaurants in RI. Like I said we loved the food as always and still had great experience.

    We have wanted to try Tin Peddler for a while, and had the perfect opportunity for a family brunch. We had an 11:00 a.m. reservation, and when we arrived the hostess informed us that they were running a little behind, so we had a 10 minute wait to be seated which was no big deal. The brunch menu is lovely. The drink menu offered wonderful brunch cocktail selections (including mocktails), and the food menu had a really nice selection of both breakfast and more savory lunch options. Everyone said their food was exceptional. Our party ordered a variety of items, including traditional breakfasts, butternut bisque, avocado toast and grilled cheese, all delicious. One funny thing that happened was the bus person took our plates before asking if we were finished, and before we realized what was happening, my son was left holding the last bites of his breakfast sandwich while his plate was cleared away. We all laughed, but this is just a little fine tuning that their staff should be trained on. The restaurant decor is really fun and inviting. The noise level did get loud at times but that seems to be common in restaurants these days because of the decor and furnishings they use, and the open concept layout. Definitely not a deal breaker. All in all we had a wonderful experience and look forward to returning to try their dinner menu!
