Best Historic Restaurants in Bedford

As a frequent diner at 80 Thoreau I was a little concerned about their menu changes. Last night we tried 4 “Smalls” and 1 “Medium” from their menu. Ian helped w our choices and Andrew selected a great wine to accompany pur varied menu. Yellow fin tuna crudo, Poached lobster in bisque foam, Bay scallops w green apple and Duck consommé w duck confit. Each serving was small but delicious. Then the Medium option was divided for us. Paccheri-Beef, pancetta, fennel w Parmigiano Reggiano finished our outstanding dining experience. Bravo 80 Thoreau!

We went for the second time last night. We sat at the bar and it was A-MAZING. The drinks were delicious, the ambiance was like an old 1920’s style And the food was to die for! I could have licked the street corn platter clean it was that good!

Great service and excellent food make this a must do restaurant.

I love Vintage Tea and Cake! It's a charming, warm and friendly setting for gathering with friends and enjoying a calm, delicious break over lovely finger sandwiches, scone with clotted cream and strawberry jam, and delicious sweet treats. Plus an extensive variety of teas and bubbles, if you wish! I warmly recommend Vintage Tea and Cake!
