Sweet Meadow Cafe — Restaurant in Salisbury

My experience with Sweet Meadow was OVER THE TOP from day one of booking the venue. As mother of the bride, I was a little hesitant that my daughter selected a venue four hours from where I live. When I went to visit for the first time, I could see why my daughter fell in love with Sweet Meadow. It is absolutely beautiful. Melanie, Jessica, Holly and Don are so easy to work with and guided us through each and every decision in the planning process. It was like having a wedding planner that we did not have to hire. So much is included with the package that you don’t have to worry about decorating. Beautiful farm tables, chairs, unique décor, linens, golf carts for shuttling, etc are all provided. I could go on and on about this topic. You just need to see for yourself. They work so well with the vendors, which makes the whole planning process so much easier. The bridal suite in the main house made it so much fun for the bridesmaids to get there at 9:00 am the day of the wedding and spend all day together getting their hair and makeup done before the 5:00 ceremony. The groomsmen had their own suite as well. They made sure that the groom and bride did not see each other before the ceremony. Lunch was provided at Sweet Meadow for the entire wedding party, including the parents. Holly was our day of coordinator (provided by Sweet Meadow), and she was both professional and wonderful to work with. She made sure every detail was attended to. The cake platter that I brought ended up being too small for the wedding cake. Melanie immediately came to the rescue and had a perfect one that we could use. I cannot say enough good things about our experience with Melanie and Don Hobert and their staff. I highly recommend Sweet Meadow for your wedding venue. I give it a...

Sweet Meadow has been on my 5 star list for years. I have been a patron in all of their locations and this was a great place I would bring visitors for a knock your socks off dining experience. Not always perfect but the owners / managers have made good on the few small errors in the past. - Alas I do not recommend this restaurant anymore. 2 stars only for good prior service. - I have not been there in over a year due to an epic dining failure. I ordered the pork chop which I have gotten several times over the years and it was always excellent in the past. (Sides & soups are great!) The piece of meat that night looked good but turned out to be over 60% fat and gristle. I mentioned it to the water. He acknowledged me but made no comment. - I asked for management without response. I only ate about 30% of the chop because I was disappointed and becoming upset at the lack of customer service. I sent it back and saw staff look at my less than half eaten meal. (I thought there would be a response after looking at my half eaten meal!) When the waiter brought the check he seemed irritated when I again voiced my disappointment. In a surly manner said well "I can give you a dessert". (No Go for me due to health issues) - I just paid and left. Got something else to eat later. - Extra disappointing experience as I have met and talked to the owners several times. I also supported this restaurant when they were having tough times. - Sadly I cannot recommend this restaurant that used to be known for a great atmosphere and exemplary customer service. - When you treat a regular poorly you lose them and all...

The atmosphere is small and closed in feeling- mainly because of the low ceilings. Tables are set just far enough apart. Has a very small, quaint bar. Ordered the muffuletta sandwich (ham, turkey, salami, provolone and homemade olive tapenade) with a side salad (mixed greens with one cucumber slice and one small cherry tomato) and it was delicious. Also ordered the double chocolate toffee mousse pie for dessert and for $8.95, save your money. It's decadent, but it tastes just like Hershey's chocolate suryp- which it's covered in. There is no toffee - it's all chocolate and it's a rather small piece for the price. Our server left a lot to be desired. We had to ask for refills on drinks, she couldn't remember what we asked for, she couldn't remember to bring a side item to the table until we were well into our meal and she struggled in general checking on us. We were there at lunch and it was busy, but there weren't that many tables where she couldn't keep up. However, some people also walked out after they were seated. She just couldn't handle serving and she had others assisting her (clearing tables, refilling water glasses, taking the check, etc.). Overall, the food was good, if a bit pricey, but the...
