Whitman House Review

What began as a modest pancake house has been transformed by the Rice family into a vast—if touristy—restaurant, but pewter plates, candlelight, and rustic wood accents make the place feel comfortably tavernlike. Predictable seafood, steaks, and surf-and-turf combos (consider the crabmeat casserole with petite filet mignon) keep the menu uncomplicated and the portions ample. Lunch and lighter dinner fare are served daily in the Bass Tavern. If you have to wait for a table, browse in the adjacent Amish quilt shop.

    Whitman House Review

    I've been dining at the Whitman House every summer for over 10 years. It gets crowded so reservations are a good idea. its a great spot when you are in the mood for something other than fried seafood. I LOVE the prime rib. The service has always been great and the atmosphere is very friendly. This would be a good choice for a fmaily who wants a slightly more upscale experience than the typical roadside lobster house. The gift shop next door is always a fun browse if you are waiting for your table or after dinner.
