My last guest had me embarrassed.
August 10th (weekday)

We docked in Wolfeboro.

Wolfetrap was 1:45 wait.
Pavilion takes reservations, but was closed that day (understandable)
El Centenario had an hour and a half wait. We put our name in and continued walking.
Garwoods was closed for a private event
Dockside grille was just slammed
Nolan's had a 2 hour wait.

Most barely answer the phone (or not at all), so we walked around to each, then back to El Centenario. We were finally seated, had our order taken and it was an hour before appetizers showed. We are now 2.5 hours, more like 3, from the time we docked to eat.

It's not a good scene lately, haha!

I did try Wolfetrap 3 times this year, unsuccessfully all the times.
Once, the wait was 1:45. Pass
2nd time, shut down due to a Covid exposure.
3rd time, "We don't know when we can seat you, but at least an hour and a half".

Wolfetrap takes more effort, too: I can't get under the bridge, so I dock at the town docks and walk over there. I'm happy to do it if I can actually get a seat.

Just let me book a darn reservation. My money is good and it's consistent..

And to add insult to injury, Pop's runs for the hills after Labor Day.
Dude, give us a week or two to enjoy it! Glad I got them in early...

Ellacoya: Thank you, we love you, please don't change!

I agree it would be nice if seasonal places like Pops, Lukilani, Sawyer’s ect stayed open a weekend or two after Labor Day like Town Docks does.
