Haven eaten at the Appleseed Restaurant 6 years ago, and ever after referring to it as the place with the worst French fries we have ever eaten (they were extremely burned), we decided to give it another chance. We went to have the Sunday Brunch and were again disappointed. The home fries were tasteless, mini poppy lemon seed muffins tough and appeared to have been made from a mix, baked beans definitely not homemade and the fresh fruit unripe. The coffee tasted as if the coffee maker had not been cleaned in quite awhile.The eggs, bacon and hash were good, though nothing exceptional. Our waitstaff were not attentive and did not explain anything when we were seated. We had asked for coffee and water, were served coffee and finally at the end of the meal realized there was water at the self serve juice table. I'm not sure why this restaurant has survived as long as it has. Perhaps most of it's customers are going for the quantity rather than quality. Or perhaps their catering is better than their restaurant food and that is what keeps them in business. At any rate, this is one customer who is not going to give them another chance, even if it is 6 years...

Tonight we reserved a dinner cruise on Lake Sunapee for our 5th wedding anniversary. Man what a nice night for it! Well, we got there at the time scheduled and the boat had been gone for an hour!

There was a young man on the dock that was just about to leave from the cruise. He couldn’t have been more helpful. Called the boat and spoke with them. Someone will call us tomorrow! I told him there’s a reason why we aren’t on the boat.

Asked him for the closest restaurant. The one we picked we’ve wanted to try all year. They do the catering for the dinner cruise. He called and made a reservation for us. Gave us a name for when we got there.

We learned the cruise boat and restaurant are one and the same. Second Generation family. Pete the owner came out apologizing. Said he would be sure, even though it was a full boat, to get is on tomorrow nights cruise! Lisa was amazing wait staff. All around amazing and experience! And did right by us!

The owners should be very proud of themselves!! They run an amazing business!! Thank you for making our...
