We try to dine here often, especially during good weather because we love the grounds and the rose garden. Today, we had Sunday brunch. It was a bit frantic for parking and getting into the dining room because there appeared to be a wedding reception going on in the function room. The dining room was busy for brunch and we sat at a table near the back of the room. Loud but tolerable. We were seated but had to wait quite while to be asked whether we wanted a drink. OK, brunch on a Sunday will be busy, no problem. After the drink order came, it was quite a while before one of the wait staff re-appeared. Slow service, overall. My wife ordered an Old Fashioned which was far too sweet so we asked for it to be redone and it came back quickly and had the correct level of sweetness. Our only appetizer was cod cakes. Three pretty large fritters but they were oily. Also, the inside dough of each was cold. Apparently fried ahead of time and then reheated in the oil that clearly was not hot enough thereby making each fritter far too oily. The fritters had reasonable flavor but were not fried correctly. My wife ordered a crab cake which she loved. I had a turkey and bacon sandwich which was very good. Desserts were apple crisp and creme brûlée. Both had good flavor but the apple crisp had undercooked apples and was served in a dish that was too small making it difficult to eat the crisp and ice cream, together. We enjoyed our brunch but felt the slow service and undercooked dessert were needless detractions to an otherwise enjoyable dining experience.

The Pond House is an excellent choice for lunch, wine pairings, and pop-up dinners. The menus are creative, and the food and service are excellent. If I have any complaint, it is the noise level. It may not be a problem for the younger folks, but for us old folks, it can make conversation with those at your table a bit challenging. Bring an appetite; the portions provide excellent value for your dollar.

I decided to book a reservation for my family and I to have lunch here in the afternoon. We had made the two hour drive all the way from Providence, Rhode Island. My daughter was ecstatic about eating here and seeing the rose garden after. The food was delicious which is why it is disappointing that the service was lacking. I had only asked for water as a beverage and as I looked at the ice floating in my cup, I noticed a small black winged creature floating in my cup of water. It was a bug. When I made mention of this to the waitress and asked for a new cup of water, I did not receive any sort of sincere regret. I was quite upset that the server seemed to lack any remorse for the bug in the water I was served. I will not be dining here again but the rose garden in the Elizabeth Park was absolutely lovely and my daughter loved it!

We were able to sit outside and enjoy the beautiful pond, plants, and flowers. I always enjoy the salads and the sandwiches are outstanding. The Pond House Cafe is always a wonderful casual dining experience.

Our Sunday brunch meal was outstanding in presentation and flavor. Service could not have been any better. Our server was experienced in her position and she shined thru the whole time. The atmoshere is a bit crowded but yet still able to converse comfortably. Great Brunch. Would not think twice about going back.

Disappointed on the food. I hadn’t been since I moved out of CT. My crab cake was so dry and my friend’s steak was very overcooked. Not what it used to be.

It was a great brunch - delicious food and a wonderful location. Great service. Parking was easy on Sunday morning and enables us to have a nice post-brunch stroll around the park.
