"The Old Inn On The Green, which also is
an Inn with antique-filled rooms, serves up-to-the-minute cuisine
by chef and co-owner Peter Platt...The results of his efforts means
diners can revel in times past while enjoying the culinary fruits
of today."

“On warm summer evenings, guests eat outside
on the garden terrace under a white canopy. In winter, candlelit dining
rooms offer cozy surroundings. Chef/owner Peter Platt designs his
menu around whatever’s available from local farmers, and the
food is both innovative and elegant.”

“Platt masterfully flavors his food in
a simple, clean, and balanced manner, and the results are often sublime.”

The Old Inn On The Green
Foodies have followed chef Peter Platt from his post at Wheatleigh
to this rustic spot, where the focus is on the food, not formality.
Superior American fare—braised lamb shank with spring vegetables
and pan-roasted duck with wild rice—is served in the intimate
dining rooms of this inn, which glows with candlelight.

"There rarely are evening as charmed as
the one we spent last Sunday at The Old Inn. This year's birthday
celebration will be forever remembered as a most special one, spent
in the company of loving friends and family, in the best possible
surroundings.
In every detail, you and your staff have labored,
lovingly obviously, to make the Old Inn On the Green a truly remarkable
experience...
Dinner lives on in my memory - wonderful!"
