I hate to say it because I normally give rave reviews of most restaurants.

one of the driest tenderloins I’ve ever had. not worth the effort to finish and we didn’t. very bland as well. I’ve had close to a hundred tenderloins in Indiana and I put this in the bottom five. coleslaw was delicious and the french fries nice and crispy. everything came in aluminum foil, so that was nice as it was all all recyclable

My husband and I traveled almost an hour to specifically have lunch here. We were greeted by a sweet hostess and server. We started with the salad bar. It was nice, then it all went down hill from there.

We had the buffet. It was $15. The buffet is loaded. There are numerous salad options: lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, croutons, peppers, cole slaw, potato salad, jello, etc, and several different soups. The main entrees were fish, fried chicken(fabulous), hamburgers, pizza, meatloaf, tenderloins. Vegetables included broccoli/rice dish, cheesy hash brown potatoes, mashed potatoes, green beans, macaroni and cheese, etc. They also had homemade Cinnamon rolls – so good. There is also an ice cream bar. I highly recommend this restaurant. The service is good, the facilities are clean.

Definitely check this place out on a Friday or Saturday. The seafood buffet is legit and so are the crab legs. The main buffet is $20 and an additional $20 for the crab legs. The frog legs and shrimp were good as so was the salad bar. Don’t pass on dessert because the dessert bar is phenomenal!

I have had the pleasure of dining at Putnam Inn for many years.I have never been disappointed. The buffet is always filled with a delicious array of meats and fish and great sides and tasty desserts. The caramel pecan apple pie is my personal favorite.

Ordered the blackened salmon with mango salsa, potatoes, salad, and dinner roll. The portions were generous and all for less than 20.00. It was absolutely delicious . I placed my order to go at the restaurant and it was ready to go in about 15 minutes. I will go there again. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Friday is seafood, crab legs are delicious, clams and shrimp are very good. Server was on spot, clean floors, clean bathroom. A bit pricey but worth the trip.

Love their salad and hot bars and everything I’ve eaten here is excellent. Highly recommended for variety, generous portion sizes and healthy options as well as good deals on daily specials. It has a homey, comfortable feel, accompanied by friendly service. Take-out service has never disappointed.

Great little family restaurant. We enjoyed the seafood buffet. They have a great salad bar and the cinnamon rolls are to die for. If you’re in the area, I recommend giving this place a visit.
