Samoset restaurants closed

[philsfan Administrator Find all posts View Profile Close philsfan]

I got a letter from RCI regarding my exchanges in July, 2010 to Samoset in Rockport that states that 1) the resort is now non-smoking and 2) the onsite restaurants are now closed and they don't know if they will reopen . Are there any Samoset owners out there who have any more info about restaurant situation?

When we were there The on site restaurant looked nice but there are so many real good places nearby that I would not miss it. Breakfast outside would be nice there but that is all I would want.

I'm an owner at Samoset but don't recall seeing any notice about the restaurant being closed. It was upscale and required nicer clothes than I like to bring on vacation, so we never ate there. As Frank said, there are so many good resaurants in the area this one closing won't impact your vacation. By summer of 2010 maybe it will back in business under new management.

Then I won't miss it at all, that's for sure.

The back room was fancy, the main room and outside were casual, and very good. That is really too bad, I hope they reopen.

Good news

I just checked the Samoset web site and found that the Breakwater cafe, the Clubhouse Grille and Marcel's will open this Spring. Marcel's will have only breakfast and lunch initially starting April 28th. I'm still not getting dressed up to eat but it's good to know you have the option.

I don't care a bit about Marcel's, but the others really helped make our stay -- I hope they have a good season!!

We stayed at the Samoset several times on getaways, mostly off season since it was only a couple of hours away. We had Sunday brunch once at Marcel's, and it was really very good. Didn't try the others.
