I’m Thankful for Whiskey (and Pork)!

Join Saloon in kicking off the holiday spirit by giving thanks to the good things in life…whiskey and pork, with a four-course prix fixe meal on Thursday, November 15th.


Enjoy each course with a whiskey cocktail, with all liquors locally sourced from New England distilleries, paying homage to the original land of Thanksgiving with Bully Boy, Ryan and Wood, and more.  Pork-centric dishes from Saloon Chef Derek Clough will accompany each cocktail, from appetizer to dessert.
