Best Farm To Table Restaurants in Londonderry

We had an incredible dinner at The Hermitage Inn after a freezing cold ski day. We were seated by the fireplace and the warm bread was a welcomed start. My daughter had the hermitage burger and I had the sirloin with Yukon mashed potatoes. We ended the evening with a warm chocolate chip cookie with ice cream. While we were seated we chatted with one of the owners and then got to see the incredible wine cellar. It doesn’t get better…

Incredible food, service, and setting. Highly recommend.

We started off with the "small" cheese plate--3 cheeses. And while the cheeses were all excellent, it was not small at all! There were only two of us, and this easily could have served four or even six! Needless to say, we took half of it home. On to the Estate Greens salad, which was delicious. I had the Cornmeal Crusted Cod, and it was done perfectly--tender, flaky, tasty, with a wonderful sauce/stew that was almost like a chowder, containing shrimp, small sliced potatoes, bacon, and chives. I'm normally not a big cream sauce guy, but everything just "worked" together beautifully. My wife had to House Made Pappardelle (and this was the widest pappardelle I ever saw!). She thought it was excellent, but was maybe a little light on the mushrooms. Our table was toward the front of the restaurant, with a great view of the fireplace. We even got to sit there for a bit before our cheese plate was served. As it was Valentine's Day, we skipped dessert because we had a box of chocolates and some fresh strawberries waiting for us at home. But the Maple Bourbon creme brulee looked really good!

Everything was great. I was sort of sad, they were out of the pork that looked and sounded amazing. Our server was wonderful. We had a late reservation so there was only one other table but clearly it can be a lively place on the weekends.

Great experience that helps the school. Highly recommend.
