Wedding Rehearsal Dinners

It’s hard to believe that we’re full on into September now with the children back to school and foliage season just around the corner. The busy summer tourist season may be over but that doesn’t mean the wedding season has ended. For us, the fall wedding season is just as strong as the summer. After all, there isn’t much in this world more beautiful than being outside surrounded by the glorious autumn colors of New Hampshire.

The Wildcat Inn & Tavern in Jackson, NH is comprised of a 90 seat main dining room divided into 5 distinct spaces, a 90 seat Tavern with roaring fire places, our beautiful outdoor gardens and deck, and 12 inn rooms and Click to Enlargesuites. Each of these areas can be used exclusively for wedding rehearsal dinners, private parties or business meetings and events. For guests thinking of holding any kind of ceremony at The Wildcat there are several great locations, inside and out, for exchanging vows. There are also other great locations within walking distance of The Wildcat including, “The Little White Church” and the waterfalls.

Every event at The Wildcat Inn and Tavern is customized to meet the needs of our guests so we invite you to come for a tour of the entire inn and the beautiful grounds surrounding the inn. We look forward to helping make your event special and as wonderful as you imagine.

Garden Dining in Jackson

It’s hard to believe that Memorial Day and Father’s Day have come and gone and July is just around the corner. Recently, we’ve been very busy doing some spring cleaning around the inn and prepping the gardens for your enjoyment. Whether you prefer sitting in the sun or in the shade we have a spot just right for you. Doesn’t it seem that food always tastes better when you’re dining outside?

Speaking of dining…on Monday nights we are now offering half price ribs and on Sundays we have 2-for-1 appetizers all day. We’re also putting the finishing touches on a brand new summer menu with lots of new additions, all your old favorites and even some daily specials we think you’ll find darn near impossible to resist. To highlight just a couple of our more popular menu choices we have Lobster Macaroni & Cheese which has penne pasta, garlic & cheddar cheese, cream sauce, lobster meat, parmesan cheese, parsley and garlic bread. For something on the lighter side how about our Walnut Gorgonzola Salad made up of mixed greens, candied walnuts, cranberries, gorgonzola cheese and sweet raspberry vinaigrette.

Whether you want to dine in our air conditioned dining room, the tavern or in our outside garden we hope to see you soon.

 

What’s Happening at The Wildcat

This time of year the valley is fairly quiet since all the ski resorts are now closed and they haven’t opened up yet for their summer activities. There’s plenty going on at The Wildcat Inn & Tavern though. It seems we’re always busy planning for the next special event like a wedding rehearsal dinner, business meeting, birthday party, holiday party or just our regular weeknight special promotions and live music.

This week coming up we are having 100 guests from the Tri County CAP organization for a meeting. Then on Tuesday we have our weekly Hoot Night (open mic night) hosted by the great Jon Sarty of The White Mountain Boys. On Wednesday, it’s our weekly dinner for two (only $23.50) and some great jazz and big band music by The Swingtones. The events seem to go on and on all week.

The entire month of May is very busy with private parties but don’t let that stop you from visiting us and enjoy the fun here in Jackson. Don’t forget that during the month of May you can stay FREE on any Tuesday or Wednesday night so we hope to see you soon.

Cheers!

Hoot Night in Jackson

I know you’re going to find this hard to believe since I work for The Wildcat Inn and Tavern but I don’t get the chance to go to Hoot Night on Tuesdays very often. Then when I do go I always ask myself why I don’t go more often because it’s so much fun.

What makes it so fun? Glad you asked. First there’s the Tavern itself. A lot of places might call themselves taverns but very few actually have the look and feel of an authentic tavern. From the flooring to the fireplace to the old fashioned wooden sled used for the beer taps the Wildcat certainly fits the bill as a tavern. Next is the people. You have people of all ages and walks of life that come to enjoy their friends company and some good music. Last and certainly not least, the music. The quality of musicians that perform on Hoot Night is incredible. On any given night you could have pianists, guitarists, fiddlers, drummers and the list goes on.

So the next time you’re at home sitting in front of the tv and you realize it’s a Tuesday night, shut off the tube and head to The Wildcat Inn and Tavern in Jackson for a night you’ll enjoy and talk about for a long time.
