We booked Windermere for Thanksgiving and were very excited about thanksgiving dinner, especially because the chef was excellent in the summer. Unfortunately, we sat down at 6:45 and our server said they did have a thanksgiving dinner but an earlier table was given all the white meat so only dark meat remained. We were really disappointed and surprised given it was. Not late in the evening. Feels like poor planning if you run out of the most popular turkey on thanksgiving so early. My husband’s steak was great and we had the pear hazelnut dessert that was also great! The pastry chef is excellent!
