    Tasting room experience was great as always. Jeremiah was excellent as a server. My only negative is how customers waiting in line for gift cards were soooooo negative and complaining. People it’s the day before Christmas Eve!….your poor planning is not the fault of the employees!!! The employees of CH handle it with grace. They’re customer-oriented and patient!!!!

    Excellent service! Nicole was a phenomenal server. The pot roast was delicious and a very generous portion! We’ve been here a few times, but celebrating our anniversary today was my favorite.

    We went on a Tuesday night when they have a pork chop special - and it was outstanding! We started out with some nice cocktails, bread and soup. All four of us ordered the pork chop special because we heard it was really good, and it did not disappoint! The sides (loaded mashed potatoes and crispy grilled brussel sprouts) were perfect. We finished off with the banana cream pie, which is not what you're expecting, but still did the job. We will definitely be coming back again!
