 Garrison, NY - The historic Bird & Bottle Inn in Garrison recently received a "very good to excellent" rating from Zagat.com.
The high rating follows closely on the heels of the Inn's first Award of Excellence from Wine Spectator magazine for its wine list.
In the Zagat Survey, The Bird & Bottle received a 23 rating for food, a 24 for decor and a 22 for service. The review highlights state that "It's like 'stepping back' to 'Colonial times' at this 18th-century Garrison inn full of 'hypnotic fireplaces' and 'old-world charm,' so first 'feel the history' (and maybe spot the 'female ghost'), then sup on 'excellent,' up-to-date New American fare . . . given the 'caring staff,' it's 'perfect for a romantic dinner,' and 'well worth' 'a drive' for the weekend brunch."
"We were fortunate to have Douglas Gardner join us as executive chef earlier this year," said Innkeeper Elaine Margolis. "He has developed a wide range of menus and brought a new level of creativity to the kitchen, which have earned us the Zagat rating as well as rave reviews from our patrons."
