“My friends took me to Burtons to celebrate my birthday! It is a beautiful, comfortable place and a wonderful staff that can help with any request! The Pomegranate martinis were fabulous and our meals were awesome!! Two of us had the fish sandwich with fries and the other meal was General Tsos bowl. Great lunches! The birthday dessert was so huge we all shared it! For a fun, delicious lunch this is the place to be!“
“GREAT MEAL, GREAT SERVICE & GREAT ATMOSPHERE!!This was our first visit to The Beamhouse... we will definitely be back!!Our party shared a few appetizers, salads and Pizza!! All were so flavorful... amazing!! The pizza was perfectly cooked in their brick oven!The Chefs definitely used the freshest ingredients!Our main meals included mushroom risotto and fish and chips! Again, the fish was fresh, flaky and crispy! The risotto was so flavorful!!Although we were quite satisfied, we still made room for dessert... an amazing carrot cake!!The best part of the experience, for me, was that they were able to accommodate my gluten free requests!! Our friendly Server took extra care in explaining which menu items were gluten free (there were several options... including DESSERT!!) and clearly the Chefs took extra care in preparing my meal!! I was so grateful to the entire Team for the special care and attention offered to accommodate my restrictions!It was a wonderful experience and meal!! We will definitely be back!!Dietary restrictions: Gluten free“
“Good all around restaurant that for some reason I forget is there.The menu has a variety of different options and a few creative dishes.Could have a few more appetizers or charcuterie, but not a huge deal.They happen to have "Graham Central" Ice cream which is a must, must have.“
“Just found this Birch Hill two weeks ago and we've already been twice! Absolutely love the food, atmosphere and staff they are so friendly (almost forgot to mention the drinks. .excellent) Cassie especially made our evening great by accommodating our large group!“
“Lovely experience, the food was wonderful. I got an Omelette du Jour and it was perfectly cooked with a wonderful blend of delectable flavors. The service staff were wonderful, they were very kind and accomodating.My only issue would have to be the strong smell of gasoline which was almost nauseating, presumably due to the several fireplaces being lit in an enclosed space. Aside from that, the atmosphere was wonderful with very elegant yet homey decor, and I love that they support local artists by allowing them to sell their paintings there.Parking: The place was packed, though there was ample parking, we ended up having to park on the grass.Wheelchair accessibility: They offer handicap parking and everything is on one floor.“
“Went to Sunday brunch Jan 21st. I placed a review in Yelp; therefore; this will be brief. I thought the food and temperature of the food was excellent. Lots of varieties; meats; veggies; pasta; salads; fruit; sides and desserts. Mimosas; champagne and Bloody Mary's were great. Plenty of parking and fast seating. The hostess allowed us to choose any available table. Our Waiter (Junior) was attentive; fast; accurate; professional and funny?. I noticed the Wait staff and Hostess were dressed in uniformity; wearing white shirts and black slacks. HOWEVER; I could not believe my eyes ? when I saw the 2 guys at the carving and omelette station. They were wearing "street" clothes (sweats) and beanies on their heads. They were not dressed in uniforms; or at least wearing aprons and matching caps or a hair net. Thank God they had on gloves. Totally; totally unprofessional and unsanitary. Everything was good up until seeing that; very disappointing.“
“Our first visit and absolutely not our last! From.the moment we walked in, the vibe had us smiling. Our server Brittany was amazing, and the food...WOW! We got the tuna tartare as an appetizer and it was fresh and delicious. I had the salmon and he had the jambalaya. The portions were generous but not too much and the food itself was delicious! We decided to share a piece of the cheesecake of the week and were NOT disappointed! Strawberry shortcake...think the good humor ice cream bar...The owners stopped by and made sure we were enjoying our meal. Can't wait to go back!“
“Price to quality was excellent; from kids new to our hamburgers we made to perfection; French fries was fresh. Garden Salad was perfect.Parking: Lots of parkingKid-friendliness: Very kids friendly and had watermelon or fries optionWheelchair accessibility: Yes“
“This is a great spot to meet friends but I do miss the couches on the patio where I used to sit and read in the summer. Their drinks menu is always updated. Got the Chocolate Pecan Martini and my friend got the Sweetheart Martini which has White Chocolate liqueur, Rumchata and Grenadine for the pink color. Both were delicious. My friend ordered the Pear Salad but substituted feta for the Gorgonzola and added chicken. I got the risotto special which came with poached salmon, which I exchanged for grilled salmon. The salmon was perfectly cooked and melted in my mouth. I usually bring part of my entree home but the risotto was so good and the right size, so I just finished it off! If you are debating what to order, definitely go for the short rib entree - the perfect comfort food over mashed potatoes! I love the cozy couches inside and the dark lighting which gives a very intimate feel. I would love to sit at the bar or the kitchen bar sometime, but have sat in the side dining room, the main dining room and patio at various times. All great spots, although the main dining area was a little chilly by the door one visit and the hostess kindly moved us to an interior table. The lighting in the newer dining area is brighter if that matters to you.“
“This place is a hidden gem. Food is always good. Service is fantastic -- K, K and A are always awesome!This is a great spot in the summer when the deck is open to have a drink or appetizer outside.I also have to give ten stars to their Winter Brunch menu -- we went here just the past weekend and it was hands down the BEST brunch we've ever had in town or when traveling. Everything was excellent -- highly recommend the frenched toast. My husband said the Bacon Egg and Cheese he had was the best ever. They are doing it all right!“
“They brought our food first before our soup and salad, we asked for the manager it took a long time we walked out this was the second time I had this experience in this place The service here is not good. We went back there again in the middle of September of 2021, this time we got a better service. We are back in November of 2022 and service is much better. In March 2024 is all good“
“Love the local restaurants. Food, service and atmosphere were great! My first time I was with a group of friends and we enjoyed it very much. I forgot what day it was but they had a live dj performing by their dance floor. It was very fun.The second time I came back for brunch, it was pretty busy. Overall food is good and it’s just a little cute restaurant.“
“This place exceeded my expectations. The ambiance was quite friendly and relaxing. The fries with the dipping sauces were to die for. The IPA's were very solid and I heard the strawberry lemonade was top notch. My only complaint would be to have a milkshake IPA on the beer list but beggars can't be choosers. Overall, this place is top notch, especially when you have great company.“
“I like this place. We've been a few times over the years and it's always a solid choice. Food is really good and the ambiance is lively but not overwhelming. Bar area is great, but if you want some privacy or a corner to tuck away into, they have that as well. My Albacore Tuna Melt was really good, not overly mayo'd and the buttered and griddled wheat bread was fantastic. Fries were also very good. Great cocktail selection as well as a pretty solid beer list. Great place for a date night but also fun for groups.“

“I recently hosted a birthday celebration for my closest friend and I must say, it was an unforgettable experience. We had dinner at an amazing restaurant and our waitress truly went above and beyond to make the evening extra special. Not only did she provide excellent service, but she also helped us in hiding and signaling our friends, which added an element of surprise to the celebration. The ambiance of the restaurant was perfect for the occasion and the food was absolutely phenomenal. I can't stop thinking about the delectable lobster mac and cheese and the scrumptious coconut shrimp that we had. All in all, it was an incredible celebration and I can't wait to go back to that restaurant again.“
“Ok so I wasn't sure about this place but dang! The wings were ON point! Super crispy and flavorful - we got the teriyaki and lemon pepper dry rub. That Lemmon pepper was awesome with great flavor. Service was friendly and attentive. The inside is nice and looks recently Renovated. We found the prices to be very fair. He had a burger and I had a steak salad which was huge with a lot of tasty steak and huge chunks of blue cheese. We will return.“
