I visit family in southern New Hampshire about three times a year and always look forward to an excellent lunch or dinner at the Black Forest. This recent visit I was happy to see they had added quite a few new entres to the menu and I had a delicious lunch. They also have a great variety of small craft brewery beers to choose from and the waiter was very knowledgeable, patient and friendly in helping with my selection.
I had the soup and sandwich combo and it was Delish! Shortbread cookies are fabulous too! I really enjoyed sitting in the upstairs wifi sitting area. So quiet and comfortable while I sipped my coffee and answered some emails after a great meal.
came today because it was so good a month ago. Today was terrible. Long wait to be seated since they don't have a hostess. The waiter was training some new hire. They kept forgetting us, had to ask several times for salt and pepper. Our salads were not good And their menu is misleading. I ordered the cranberry grain bowl and asked does this come with the chick pea patties? Waiter said yes and the salad came without them!!! So I asked for them and he charged us $5 for 3 crappy patties!!! Our salads bad ice tea was NoT worth$41. THEN he tells us me messed up the bill and the patties were $3 not $5 and doesn't even offer to take them off the bill! WILL
NOT BE GOING BACK AND WILL MAKE SURE TO WARN OTHERS.
I'm cheating a bit , this is my 2nd review of Black Forest . Just came from breakfast , and a stop at the bakery for a gift , and treat for home. I can't say enough great things about the food ! All homemade , high quality , and as well as tasting delicious , it all looks beautiful . Really , it's the whole package . I love the owners , who hire great workers , who work nonstop to make fantastic , homemade ,quality dishes . Every friend I've ever sent has wished they went sooner. I hope you'll try , you will not be disappointed ! ❤️One other note .. go early for holiday goodies ..best I have ever had ! 💥💥
Bought our lunch at the counter, getting the wrap and cup of soup. The soup was delicious, a corn and zucchini chowder. The wrap was their chicken salad that they are famous for. Topped it off with a delicious cookie. They have a nice area upstairs for those buying food at the counter which is where we ate.
Great food! Had lunch and dinner here. Consistent and great service.
Although pricey, the food is delicious. Their pastries are even better! Their little store is adorable! Aside from seating downstairs, you can go upstairs for a more casual meal or to get some work done. They also provide free wifi.
Great food. More upscale and pricey than one would assume from it's outward appearance.
I came here to get a muffin and a bagel seeing as though this is a CAFE and they don't even have that.. I ordered a clam soup which had barely any clam in it .. I am not sure how their pastries are but overall not very satisfied
Excellent food. Lousy, slow service. Bakery is just O.K.
Excellent variety of food. Reasonable prices. Homey decor.
A truly outstanding country restaurant. The service is impeccable and the food is outstanding. We were there on a Sunday. ..huge selection for brunch, plus sandwiches and entrées.
