Best Restaurants with a Fireplace in Franconia

The tuna special with capers and ginger was outstanding. The chicken parmigiana was very flavorful and tender. The Caesar salad was enough to share as was the chocolate mousse for our dessert. Arielle’s is one of our favor restaurants. They are consistently excellent.

We always enjoy dining at the Farm House. The cuisine is outstanding (we had the filet mignon and the pan-seared scallops, both of which were cooked and presented perfectly), and the service exemplary. The ONLY downside to the Farm House is the noise level. Being a place with 8 foot ceilings and no noise abatement tiles or other mitigation, it gets LOUD...but that is not enough to keep us from returning. Perhaps the owners/management can install some ceiling tiles or some other minimally invasive product to keep the noise from bouncing off those hard walls and ceilings.

My foodie restaurant industry girlfriend and NYC raised I went to this restaurant for the first time. It was recommended on a Reddit chat for special occasions. We go out every week in the Lehigh Valley area and minus a few of our favorites, have been mostly disappointed by our meals. Well this was definitely not the case last night. From the moment our server Nicholas came to our table we knew we were in for a treat. He was very personable and knowledgeable helping us guide through the menu. Everything we had made us go WOW! including the onion soup, twin filets, scallops, and peach pie! Truly top notch taste and presentation coupled with our great server made for a truly memorable evening. We are definitely going to make the Spinnerstown Hotel a regular part of our weekly dinners!
