Wildcat Inn & Tavern

Cozy bar area with decent service and a modest menu. Not the best in the area.

WORST EVER!!! We went the other night for our «special» dinner while on our family Christmas vacation. What a disappointment! Food came out cold and after eating I was nauseous! My kids wouldn’t even eat it and that was after skiing all day! NEVER again will we go back. This is not what I remembered. Maybe new owners??? We knew there was something wrong when WE were the only ones in there at 6pm! So why COLD food? No idea. Trying another restaurant tomorrow anything has to be better than this! AND PRICEY!

After waiting 15 minutes with 2 little impatient kids just to talk to the hostess who was incredibly rude (clearly a little overwhelmed which I 100% understand) however do not give me an attitude for trying to come eat at your restaurant! So I walked out with my 2 hungry kids and husband and found somewhere else to eat… so sorry I can not comment on the food! But the first impression left me running!

What a cute place, lots going on music upstairs and in the bar. We ate on the patio pass on the French onion soup no taste and they used mozzarella and Parmesan mix on top just strange! I got the twin lobster special so good and my daughter got a steak. My husband had salmon which was fabulous! We enjoyed our meals and they make good cocktails like a lemon drop with real fresh lemon juice.

This inn is quaint, but old and stale. The room was nice, but the furnishings were old and the quilt on the bed needed repair. The bathroom was tiny and with the door opening into the bathroom and only as far as the toilet — it was difficult to get in and out. On Saturday night bar patrons were allowed to use a bathroom on the second floor below us and the door stuck — which meant that for almost 3 hours we listened to that door bang bang bang!!! Kind of hard to sleep with all that racket. The guidelines handed to us about the inn — indicated that the office was manned from 8am-​9pm, but when we arrived there wasn’t anyone in the office, so restaurant staff helped check us in. When we left at 9am there wasn’t anyone in the office, so we left our keys in the room and departed.
The restaurant was nice — food was good and service was fabulous! Colleen was a pleasure to have as our waitress! Out of 3 nights there we only went to the bar once — service was non-​existent — especially when the bar manager’s friends showed up. Not impressed as it was very quiet.
Inn and restaurant were pricey for what you got. We enjoyed our stay, but will not stay again.

This used to be a great place to eat. We frequented the restaurant regularly for many years. Unfortunately, it has gone downhill quite a lot over the past few years. The food is mediocre and the service is lackadaisical. It is not too bad if you like music and when they have twofers once a week, but seriously overpriced otherwise. Too bad, it once was really OK

I stayed last week for an event and this place is phenomenal. The staff was kind and fun to chat with. You would expect that but we all know that isn’t always the case. I got to speak with the owner who appreciated his staff as well as his guests which is important.
My event had a buffet but I really needed a steak so I order the New York Strip which was amazing. The bar atmosphere was great and I kicked back for a bit of March Madness.
The accommodations are what you would expect for an older inn and I was not dissapointed to say the least.
As someone who lives outside Boston and loves to get away to places like North Conway, I have got to say I would stay at this location again.

This place is pretty adorable with a courteous and friendly staff. The room layout and décor are designed to capture the inn durning the 1930s. On one hand it makes it kind of cool, on the other… slanted ceilings in the bathroom as well as a shower that didn’t stay hot was a little uncomfortable. I would definitely come back for a nice stay.

I’m reviewing the accomodations part. Booked on
I had no idea what to expect. The price was the cheapest I had found in all surrounding towns, cheaper by about $ 50! I had to snag it up asap which is what I did.
The room we got actually is two rooms. A living room with a small couch and tv and the bedroom has the bathroom as well. I feel lucky having an en suite bathroom at an inn. Check in was easy and finding the room was easy. I’d love to come back in the future.

Great food! Fast, friendly service! Came here twice during week on vacation. Definitely coming back next time we are in town!

Tavern Review Only: Fantastic food and service! Had blackened salmon and my fiancé had the prime rib — both cooked very nicely and seasoned beautifully! We stopped in for dinner and to inquire about hosting a rehearsal dinner here in the summer, the manager sat down with us even while they were busy to chat about some options. Will definitely be back, and likely having our celebration here as well!

Met friends here for apres ski for the first time last night. Server was fast and attentive. Had some local beers on tap. We did appetizers they came out quickly. They were hot and delicious.
Stayed on for dinner, Caesar salad with chicken was great! The French onion soup, s signature dish, left a little to be desired, though.
Otherwise it was a great evening! Great atmosphere and the live music capped it off. Definitely going back again!

The Cat! Made that up. Reviewing the Tavern, and the tavern alone.
Retired ski lifts-​turned-​bar chairs, a few local brews on tap and a lively crowd for the weekend apres. Fries are skinny, warm and salty. Beers, about the same.
I’m thinking the place rocks a jet set during the much-​laureled live music sessions. Sans entertainment, it’s a perfectly suitable bar with pub fare to fatten you up, and a full bar to make everyone prettier.
Side note: there was a little dude running around telling jokes to various tables, and he really made the experience. Just a 6 year old kid, being hilarious. Jackson is awesome like that.

This was a terrible evening. Extremely poor service (Patty) and horrific waits for drinks. Food was good when it came, but order was off. Manager also let us sit for 15 minutes without menus or a hello. Stay away and try Cabin Fever in Bartlett. They are new but they care.

This place was great! Very warm and laid back atmosphere that was perfect after traveling that day. We sat on the Tavern side of the restaurant and there was even some live music which was pretty calm and not too loud. Loved the décor and feel of the place! Great service too! Food came relatively quickly as well!
We shared the Three Amigos appetizer which was just plain YUM! We really really enjoyed that! I had the turkey avocado club wrap which was good but my only complaint is the turkey was a little dry. My boyfriend had the Cuban sandwich which was tasty and he really enjoyed it!
Great little place in a snowy wonderland!

Ugh! never again! Sanitizer in the wine, bubbles. Fake bacon for cobb salad With tip $ 26 $ 21+ without tip — pretty expensive for ½ egg and brown avocado
Have to say the bartender was wonderful but it can;t make up for awful over-​priced food

Ate outside on the lush green lawn under the trees on a warm August day. Very pleasant surroundings, menu was interesting. Chef came out to meet us on a slow saturday afternoon, we sumbled upon the place after visiting nearby Jackson Falls.
(took a peak inside the tavern looks like it would be warm and inviting on a wintry night!)

I had lunch there with my girlfriend and the chowder was something special. Its often tough to separate one chowder form another but maybe it was the tarragon but it was one of the best cups I had.
The chicken sandwich I had was great, lot of chowder, and I had a great fresh salad. overall I’m going back and I would recommend this place. Service was great as well server was very friendly and knowledgeable about the food.

Great service. Awesome mustache. We went for lunch on a Saturday. Food wasn’t that great. Beer was flat and had sediment at the bottom– tried 2 different kinds. They need to check their lines. It’s a freaking tavern; at the very least you should be able to get a good beer.

If I could I would give this place ONE star. Horrible service and even worse food.
Arrived for dinner around 7:30. Bar was packed and dinning area was empty. We were seated in a small room at a table right next to the only other couple in the restaurant. I used to work as a hostess and I understand seating people in areas that are most convenient for the waiters… but when there are just two couples in a quite restaurant you can at least separate them by a table or two… or you might as well put them at the same table since you can easily hear each others conversations.
When I asked to move, the hostess rolled her eyes and told us where ever we want. When we sat down, all we could hear is the waitress complaining, «oh, so they chose that room– now I have to walk back and fourth.» «ugh». wah wah wah.
Before I go on. let me just remind you there was only one other table occupied at the restaurant… so in total two tables to attend to. It took the waitress 15 minutes by the time she got to us to take our order. Appetizer: Clam Chowder, Wings, Bruschetta. Main Dish: Greek Salad with Chicken and Steak. 10 Minutes pass by and she brings out the soup and she tells us the bread will be coming out shortly (If I am correct… Usually you get the bread right after the waitress takes your order? hmm). Soup was not hot. just slightly warm. 20 minutes pass and she comes out with the bruschetta and wings. still NO bread. I look down at the bruschetta and go. excuse me we ordered the bruschetta this looks like pizza. The waitress replies.“this is our version of bruschetta.” Has anyone every heard of baked bruschetts? It was dough with melted cheese and sun-​dried tomatoes. Sorry, but I believe that is considered a pizza. We moved on to the wings. They were cold. 15 minutes pass and she finally comes back to give us the bread. White sad bread… the kind of bread you use to make a peanut butter and jelly– the bread you get with an order of eggs and this bread wasn’t even toasted! We complained that the wings were cold and she took them back. Surprisingly she returned them to us 5 minutes later. I felt the lettuce on the plate which was warm and immediately called her back. I asked if she had microwaved the wings. and she said yes. Now I was pissed. We canceled our main dishes (which btw… had JUST been entered in to the computer). and left. We waisted an hour and a half to have two bites of cold food that were way over priced.
