Ocean House Events Westerly

We went for the Character Brunch. The staff and service was good and what you expect for the Ocean House. The food was not good. The only food that was good was the made to order omelets. The other buffet food, while cute in descriptions and catered towards children was cold and didn’t taste good. The Mickey Mouse pancakes lacked the pancake flavor and Were cold. The French toast sticks, cold and hard. Tator tots old and hard. They had an assortment of desserts that looked cute, but again Were mediocre in taste. They had hot or iced coffee (Dave’s) which was good. The performance and meet and greet was fantastic. The characters Were really good at the entertainment part and interacting with the kids. I was lucky to score 2 small bags of popcorn on the way out to eat in the car because we all left hungry. I probably won’t return for the Character brunch since it was $300 and we left hungry, but have had good experiences at their Sunday jazz brunch in the past and I would try that again.

Everything was lovely, but would have enjoyed live Christmas music played on the grand piano in the area.

The ambiance was lovely hut with unfortunately we could not hear the beautiful Christmas music because children were banging in the keys of a piano that was there.

I have been going for several years with my daughter, it has been our holiday tradition. We started before Covid and it was exceptional. then during Covid you needed to do what you needed to do. But now, moving downstairs, it list its ambiance. The quality of food was more like a Marriott brunch than a 5 star hotels Bruch. No clams or oysters? Low quality shrimp that were wet from water soaking and zero taste. I write for Michelin on the side, and I would never send in a review to them of what my thoughts were. When I came home, I immediately looked into Christmas brunches in Boston. Even at the end of the day, $400 for 3 people for brunch, $80 in the bar and then I had to pay $5.00 for parking, you must be kidding?? I 'd like a response back please. Just being honest, Anthony

Usually one of the best Santa brunches out there. The service is phenomenal and the food was great too but the decorations and desserts lacked this year. I will definitely be back next year but will leave them this feedback as well. The Santa there is so great!
