"After reading previous reviews, I decided to go with the older, quaint lodgings as I love history. From check in to check out staff was friendly and helpful. I stayed upstairs in original building. The room was clean and well equiped, I knew there was no microwave or fridge, but enjoyed the feeling of staying in a room in the 1800s. The remodels and furnishings have been well done to modernize but keep the antique theme. Restaurant service and food..."

"This review is about the restaurant, I did not stay here. My entire experience was way above what I was expecting. Chose to sit in the bar room, very atmospheric. Quick, attentive service. Food came quickly and it was delicious. Starter salad was loaded with veggies, all fresh. Pork chops were delicious, cooked to perfection, so tender. Even the mixed veg (extremely generous portion) was super tasty, not soggy and mushy. So much food I couldn't finish it but wanted..."

"Had a regular breakfast, eggs, bacon, home fries, toast, and coffee. Loved the old building, the Americana decor, white doily pattern table cloths. Service was friendly and just right, home fries were not great but otherwise everything else was spot on. Four strips of bacons, I'm a fan."

"This review is of the restaurant. We have been coming to Bridgeport for decades and often eat dinner at the restaurant at Bridgeport Inn. The dinner we had on May 23 was wonderful. The ambiance is historic and charming. The staff was gracious, friendly and took the party of six's order quickly. The wine and beer list was relatively comprehensive. The food was delivered in a timely manner, and grilled according to the order. The various steaks and sides of..."

"Oh my gosh, we loved this Inn. It’s very old and so quaint. If you like new and modern, you probably should pass but if you like unique places, this is the place for you. The staff is so friendly, the food absolutely delicious and having an old fashioned room was just so fun. This is where you’ll find the locals having coffee in the morning and where the bikers stay. We got their very last room. I just can’t..."
