Old Orchard Inn - EAST AURORA

Old Orchard is our favorite spot for special occasions with the kids! It feels like visiting a family home in the countryside. The atmosphere is so calm and relaxing, with beautiful views of the countryside and the pond. You can’t go wrong here; every seat has a great view! We especially love the large cottage fireplace. Every meal we've had has been fantastic!

Parking: If someone has difficulty walking up the sidewalk to the entrance, one of the staff members will drive a golf cart to pick you up from the drop-off point at the base of the sidewalk. Kid-friendliness: While some families do bring their children, the ambiance is more suited for a quieter experience, so it's not really the best fit for kids who might be loud or like to run around, as it is a slightly upscale establishment.

Everything about this restaurant is fantastic, from the food to the atmosphere. My wife and I enjoyed the Strip steak dinner, which was incredibly tender and flavorful. I had high hopes for the mashed potatoes with gouda cheese, and they exceeded my expectations—they were absolutely delicious! Our waitress was also very attentive to our needs. I can't recommend this place enough; you really have to try it for yourself!

My husband and I were very disappointed in the dinner we had. First of all there were no options to choose a vegetable or a starch. The sides of the day is what came with the meal. So if you didn’t like what was offered, you were stuck with what accompanied every meal. My prime rib, while I know it can be fatty, was just that. Very unappetizing. And the way that some of the tables were arranged were too close to each other. The couple next to us were so close it felt like they were sitting at our table. We could hear their conversation and they could hear ours. It had been years since we had eaten at the Old Orchard. I doubt we’ll return. It certainly has gone downhill. Unfortunately we did not have a great experience that we had looked forward to. Vegetarian options: There were no options.

Go for breakfast. As down home tasty as you'll find within 30 miles
