The Deer Path Inn was built in 1929 with the style of a half-timbered Tudor manor house. In addition to Deer Path Inn's excellent sleep accommodations, it also houses White Hart Pub, The English Room and a bar to provide delicious entrees and beverages for guests to enjoy. The English room is one of the area's most upscale venues and is a lovely spot for special occasions of all kinds, while the White Hart Pub has a casual atmosphere coupled with an authentic and traditional English pub experience. Those dining in The English Room can order items such as beef tartare, English pea porridge, lamb, duck and sea bass. The White Hart Pub serves entrees such as shepherd's pie, bangers and mash, potato soup and lamb meatball. So if you're in the area, try Deer Path Inn for a memorable experience.

Deerpath Inn has always been a favorite of mine when entertaining guests, family and friends, for both lunch and dinner. The Garden Room is absolutely beautiful. The wait staff is excellent. However, today we had a very bad experience. Is there a new chief? My meal was way too salty, my friend, could not eat her entree at all ( we were comped for it) . We decided on deserts, both thinking maybe this will ease our lunch experience. Her bread pudding was horrible. Stiff, with strong spice flavor. It could not be swallowed by either of us. Maybe there were serving day old bread pudding. If so, please do not do this.....horrible. I had at the Orange, Chocolate Cream Berle , excellent. I cannot wait to dine there again, to see if the chief has corrected his approach food so that this loverly restaurant will continue to be favorite for the ladies of the North Shore. Please, if there is a new chief, he must not disrupt this beautiful and wonderful place to dine.
