We were so lucky to have our wedding reception at 1640 Hart House. The staff was wonderful, helpful and prompt, and my guests are STILL talking about how amazing the food was! Kim had eyes on everything at all times and I’m so glad our reception was in her capable hands. I have to mention the food again, because it truly stole the show. 1640 Hart House is a jewel, in every way.
As always, great experience at Hart House. My extended family comes here for dinner every holiday season and reserves one of the private rooms for our meal. The food is always tasty, food/drink menus are robust, and service staff are great. After a year without the tradition we were thrilled to return!
Easter was a great experience. We have been going for years and The 1640 Hart House never disappoints. The food, presentation and service was excellent. Sean was a very professional wait person. He knew his menu and answered all our questions. He was more than attentive to all his tables in our area. This establishment has managed to keep high standards even in difficult Covid times. The quality and the variety of their food is excellent.
Great food, I had the steak tips. Cool atmosphere being in an old house. We sat in those fancy chairs you see in a rich person's study at a table by the fireplace. Friendly, attentive, and courteous staff. Be prepared to spend some money but if you can afford it, you'll enjoy it.
This is a gem of a place in Ipswich with an extensive menu for dining and a large selection of wines. You can make reservations for for a lovely 3 course meal or grab a quick bite like a burger in the Tavern with no reservations. The food was outstanding - roasted rack of lamb, salmon and shrimp special, crusted tuna, grilled sea bass - it all tasted delicious. The portions were very generous, and cooked to perfection. The service couldn't be better, all the staff were very friendly and did not try to rush us through dinner. We had a very relaxed meal, sitting in plush, deep leather chairs that were extremely comfortable. The ambiance was very cozy as you can see from the photos. It was a perfect evening at an exquisite inn.
Hart house was unbelievable!
The best food I had in a long time.
We had a party of 16 for my graduation and everyone’s meal was perfect and delicious, the chef blew us away. The waitresses were awesome!
Thank you so much Hart house for accommodating our big family !
We enjoyed this a rustic dark wood and historical restaurant. Friendly service and delicious comforting food. Fabulous old fashioned cocktail! I will be going back!
Never a bad meal here in 20 years. Very affordable for what you get and the quality. Good service and nice and cozy old new England style charm.
