Countree Kitchen & Timbers Saloon

We have been here several times over the past 10 months. Each time the food is fantastic as are the employees.

We are not locals, but do not feel like outsiders. The employees and local regulars are very warm and inviting. Special shout out to Lawry!  He is one of the most genuine people you will ever meet. He also makes a mean burger!

We have eaten several items off the menu in the past 10 months.  We keep coming back because we crave the home-comfort deliciousness and we enjoy seeing the staff.

To the owner:

              You have a great staff that keeps us coming back and staying waaaay long!

I ate their twice over the Territorial Days weekend and the food was not bad at all. The first night was Prime Rib and because I was recommended to split it because of the size, I did ask and they put everything on two plates. It was GREAT! The service was pretty good.

The next day I went with a group of 6 and they didn't seem to know how to handle splitting the check so they gave each couple (which is how we asked for it to be broken up) different checks. The problem with that was that food was going to come at different times. That is what happened. I deliberately asked to order last so that our food would come last, but somehow our food came first and the person who ordered a salad got hers last.  I'm sure this part could have been handled better.

The food, I didn't hear any complaints from anyone so that part was not a problem. Other than waiting, the visit was not too bad.

After dinner, I went to the bar next door (Timbers) and they were pretty nice. The bartenders were personable and even attempted to make a drink that they hadn't heard of before (it came out great). They even had an outdoor patio. With the gorgeous day that we were having, that was a good ending to our visit.

We stay around this area a couple of months each year so we usually eat out fairly often during the summer.  A few years ago we went several times and for a little off-beat restaurant, it was definitely worth return trips to.  However, that wasn't the case last year.  We went once and made a decision to eat elsewhere that year.

Another summer has rolled around and we thought we'd give it another try.  After all cooks change, menus change and so does staff.  This time we went for breakfast.  I can tell you we definitely won't be back anymore this year either.

Wait staff was pleasant.    Pancakes were rubbery, eggs underdone and then flattened, tasteless and overdone.
