    I have lived in Hanson for 30 years and I have been coming to the hitching post on and off over the years. A new owner took over the place about 2 years ago. I have experienced the food not being good for about the last year. But it's close and convenient so I try to buy local. Tonight my wife and I came back. I have to say the food was amazing. I guess I can't quit on a small business. I hope they can keep up the good work. I know owning a restaurant is a hard job. On another note the people who own The hitching post have a deli in pembroke that is always good. Fork in the road.

    The Hitching Post opened early to accommodate the 30+ ladies from my golf league for our end-of-season banquet. They had us set up in a sunny back room and I thoroughly enjoyed my Famous Turkey Dinner! Others ordered BLT salads and sandwiches and such, but I went big with turkey, taters, stuffing and butternut squash at midday. Although there was only one server, she did a yeoman's job! We did have to wait a bit at the end, but that's because they gave everyone a separate bill! Unexpected, but you know how older ladies can be! ;) Great food, great service!

    Had lunch here on a Saturday. Seated quickly. Friendly service. Restaurant a little tired inside but seemed to add to the charm. I had a salad w walnuts cranberries sliced pear and apples blue cheese mixed greens, vinaigrette and grilled shrimp. There were only 4 medium size shrimp, expected more for the price however it was a great tasting salad. Husband had a burger he said was ok , a bit undercooked. Would definitely go back and try again different entrees.

    HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND! This restaurant is the definition of top tier service and food. Me and a friend were desperately searching for a patio to sit on and drink/enjoy a nice meal. After going to a couple local spots to find their patios were closed, I decided to call the Olde Hitching post (I had never been prior!) the woman on the phone explained to us that they were getting new patio furniture but would go to storage and get one of the old tables and chairs so we could sit on the patio! This was so above and beyond + the food was INCREDIBLE!!!!!! Highly recommend the Olde Hitching Post, and thank you to the awesome staff again for setting us up on the patio!!!!!

    We dined here on October 21st as part of a group of about 22. The service and the food were top notch. Everyone had a huge variety of dinners and desserts and not one complaint from anyone. We were very impressed and will definitely be back. We had the Mediterranean Salmon and the whole belly fried clams. The tiramisu we shared was yummy!

    Ambiance was excellent for a Saturday evening with live music that was spot on and friendly service, super personable and helped me choose my entree that was delectable. I had the fried trio and my guy had the chicken Marsala that he said he never had served with potatoes before but it worked. My recommendation from our server was great and definitely didn't miss the prime rib. Cocktail was also amazing, perfectly balanced and they have Blue Moon on tap. Definitely will be back. Though they have the live band, they are super respectful of the dining experience offering seating as close or as quietly intimate as the guest prefers.

    Great Mother's Day at Olde hitching. We were very lucky where we showed up without reservations. The restaurant was closing early for a private party but still took us in last minute. Despite the circumstance they served us with smiling faces and the utmost kindness. Our server was so sweet and didn't make us feel like we were keeping her there later than expected. The food was great. I split the salmon entree with my daughter it was cooked perfectly and very very good !
