We are new to Lincoln as of last summer—coming from Cambridge and NYC. Honestly it is postings like these about the Tack Room that make us not want to stay in this town.
One restaurant cannot be everything to everybody. They have lots of patrons from neighboring towns and areas—it wasn’t designed to be just for Lincoln residents nor to suit anyone’s particular needs, wants, desires. Please create a conversation with the owners directly to nurture and respect their fledgling small business.
