The prices were fair, the service unbeatable, and the food was outstanding.However, since one of the two owners sadly passed away a few years ago, the other owner inexplicably revamped the entire restaurant... the name, the menu, and even the style of the restaurant decor to be more chic and hip to cater to what is perceived as the snooty crowd of Barrington (which included the newly added sale of alchohol). Not only can I say that the change was unwarranted, but the majority of the customers there were down to earth, wonderful people, elderly people, or families who couldn 't care less about the chic vibe provided and were more put off by the changes, especially since many aspects of the previously cherished vibe was attributed to the warmth of Roberta and were nostalgic to many or all of the customers which was appreciated. The chic vibe was cold, and considering that The Catlow is a historic building, the changes are inappropriate.The food is plain, boring, and unimpressive. I don 't know if they also changed vendors, but if so... it was a bad idea. The draw of alcohol is not enough to ignore the blatant raise in prices for food that is just not good!The owner would be doing himself and the rest of Barrington a huge favor by returning to the nostalgic warmth of Boloney 's, with the decor, food, and pricing. It seems that he may slowly be realizing that, as they recently returned some of the retired menu items from Boloney 's. But more changes should be made, then they may see more business flooding in. And realistically, if that was not cutting it to keep the business open, I 'd gladly be willing to pay a little extra for BOLONEY 'S food, and not the poor excuse for food they 're currently peddling.

This spot never fails to deliver. They serve good dishes for convenient rates, there are no long waits even when the spot is busy. read more This spot never fails to deliver. They serve good dishes for convenient rates, there are no long waits even when the spot is busy.
