I think the Bee and Thistle Inn in Old Lyme, Connecticut, is a perfect setting for a relaxing evening in a historic and romantic setting. The inn was built in the 1700's and is beautifully furnished. We had dinner there for an anniversary and were very impressed with the delicious food, the superior service, and the surroundings. The grounds are lovely , and we took a nice after-dinner stroll. The menu is American with a good variety of dishes.
We also enjoyed an excellent afternoon tea there a couple of years ago. They still do these in November and December on Wednesdays and Thursdays.
