The Spinning Wheel

We had our reception at The Spinning Wheel on 5.20.17 and it truly was a magical evening. The Spinning Wheel holds a special place in my families heart since it is where my parents had their wedding reception over 35 years ago. Chris and his team we so amazing and every little... Read More detail that we had discussed was take care of!! We are still hearing about what an amazing time everyone had and how incredible the food was. I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone looking for a venue that treats everyone like family!!!!

We had our wedding this past weekend and it was amazing because of Chris, Anthony, and their staff. All our guests are still talking about how delicious the food was from the cocktail hour appetizers, salad, tortellini, and the various dinner options. We required halal/kosher... Read More chicken and beef and they were able to accommodate this. I was meticulous about all the details from the food all the way through the decorations and they executed perfectly. The setting was perfect and had that rustic feeling that I wanted. Our guests loved the place and I had people ask me how we found this hidden gem. Chris spent over an hour on the phone to help answer questions and also took time on a busy Sunday to brainstorm and arrange the setup of the reception room. The moment we arrived to the venue on the wedding day, Chris and staff setup the room exactly as planned. They immediately came up to us with appetizers and made sure we were fed. Throughout the night, Chris stopped by the sweetheart table to make sure we were okay and offered to bring us our drinks. He and Anthony didn't make me feel like just another customer through the process. They made it feel so personal and were so attentive and caring until the very end. I would highly recommend this place for a wedding or any party. They went above and beyond and more than exceeded my expectations. Thank you Chris, Anthony, and team for an unforgettable night!!!

The Spinning Wheel hosted our wedding ceremony and reception on June 25, 2016. We could not be more pleased with the entire experience. Planning our special day with Chris was so incredibly easy and fun. We had so many choices to personalize the space and the food selections... Read More were absolutely amazing. The day of the wedding, every last detail went exactly according to plan. The entire staff was fantastic; so attentive and thoughtful. Everything was handled beautifully and our guests could not get over the delicious food. We’ve been told several times that this was the best wedding people have ever attended. We are so incredibly thankful to Chris and everyone at The Spinning Wheel for making our wedding a truly perfect day.

Our wedding was amazing because of The Spinning Wheel. Chris and his staff were amazing! The food was amazing! Everyone kept telling me how beautiful everything came out. If you are looking for a rustic farm theme wedding or even just to go out to eat you MUST try this place.... Read More Even the drive is beautiful! Every time someone asked me where our wedding is going to take place, I told them it's at The Spinning Wheel, they would always say, OMG! I LOVE THAT PLACE & THEIR FOOD IS AMAZING!. Thanks again Spinning Wheel for making our wedding special.

We had our wedding on 10/29/17 and it was absolutely perfect. From the ceremony to the reception, Chris helped to create the most beautiful setting. Our ceremony was in front of a romantic stone fireplace, and the reception was set up in the banquet room which was beautifully... Read More decorated for our rustic fall theme. We had a small wedding, with just 52 guests. It ended up pouring rain all day, but it didnt stop us from having a wonderful time! We had hoped for cocktail hour on their beautiful patio, but Chris didn't miss a beat and moved everyone into a separate room inside the restauraunt. Chris personally assists with everything. We had only a best man and maid of honor, with my stepchildren as junior bridesmaid/groomsman and flower girl, so Chris himself was showing guests to their seats, and he even rolled out our aisle runner. His team of servers took great care of us. The food was wonderful, hot and fresh with huge portions. My guests were raving about It! Water glasses stayed full, and empty plates were quickly cleared away. They handled all the cleanup, and when I came back to get our things, I was so pleased to find everything carefully packed up . The Spinning Wheel made our intimate wedding a most memorable day. We can't thank them enough! -Adam and Renée Rushka

Planning a long distance wedding was not easy. We looked at a few venues and it was all so complicated and, honestly, overwhelming. I must say, meeting Chris at the Spinning Wheel was a God sent for us. He helped us plan a beautiful wedding and were very responsive to all... Read More our needs. And I appreciate how organized he is. Chris also gave us a lot of good helpful advice, his event experience shows.

The Spinning Wheel was the perfect venue for our intimate New England Wedding. The staff did a great job setting up the room, the tables and even my centerpieces and decorations. I worked with Chris throughout the process and he was such a pleasure. Planning a wedding involves a... Read More lot of time and effort and I was worried about everything from the start being the perfectionist that I am. Chris is so on top of things though which helped set my mind at ease about many things. The food and food service was also great all our guests raved about how delicious everything was. The dance floor is a great size for the beautiful and versatile L room space. We had a little over 100 people and no one felt crowded even with 12 round tables set up. There is also a nice stone patio outside and a gazebo on the property. I would highly recommend any couple planning their wedding to check out the Spinning Wheel to discover all this local gem has to offer.

Absolutely perfect! We were married in February 2017 on a quintessential New England day. The Spinning Wheel was the perfect venue for our winter wedding. The fireplaces were glowing, the flowers were stunning and our guests raved about the food. The atmosphere allowed us to... Read More enjoy our guests and we danced, danced, danced! Chris and the staff are so attentive, they really brought the whole day together. There isn't a thing we would do differently! Many thanks to Chris and everyone at the Spinning Wheel!

May 28, 2017 My daughter and her husband were married in Portland, Oregon six months ago. Both sides of the family are large and live in New York and Connecticut. Because of the distance, few were able to attend the ceremony. We wanted to celebrate with everyone, so... Read More we had a Wedding Dinner at The Spinning Wheel on Memorial Day Weekend. Being that they had been married for six months, they did not want an elaborate reception. Alison has always loved rustic décor and country style, so we went with a farmhouse theme. When I presented my idea of substituting farmhouse tables instead of the usual ones, I think Chris was a little surprised. However, being an accommodating and flexible person, he went along with the idea. Everything went very smoothly. The restaurant was beautiful, in a quaint New England manner, with wood beams, beautiful old fireplaces, stonework and woodwork from the days of old-and some new custom work, also! The beams held greens and fairy lights, the cocktail hour was held outside surrounded by well-tended gardens with refreshing drinks and tantalizing hors d’oeuvres. The food was sumptuous and served in a timely manner so it could be enjoyed hot. The wait staff was particularly attentive and we heard from many of the guests that the meal was delicious. The Spinning Wheel offers a unique venue- one that is relaxed and almost a magical step back in time. Chris, the proprietor, is friendly and he and his staff will work to make your dreams come true!

We could not have had a more perfect wedding day and most of that was thanks to Chris at The Spinning Wheel. We had a few appointments to check out different venues for our wedding. The Spinning Wheel was the first place we looked at. From the minute we walked in, we knew this... Read More was the place for us. Every single member of the staff we talked to was friendly and helpful. Everyone seemed like they enjoyed working there.

Chris seemed to really care about making us happy, and that meant a lot. He worked with us every step of the way and was extremely accommodating to all of our requests. He made sure every part of the wedding day went exactly the way we wanted it to. The venue itself is beautiful and cozy.
