The restaurant has great ambience and the owners and staff are
so welcoming. The food was delicious, there were 8 of us and we
were all so pleased. The cocktail specials were great and the
menu had something for everyone."

"We were driving around Jaffrey in the
dark, in the rain looking for anyplace that was still open and
serving food. Low and behold, we see the warm lights pouring out
of Sunflowers. We parked right out front and they seated us as
soon as we walked in. The menu was small but everything we had
was fantastic!! The French Onion soup and large selection of hot
teas, in particular, were a wonderful way to warm up. The goat
cheese salad and chicken and pasta dish were also delicious. A
great surprise for an otherwise doomed dinner adventure...."

"This local restaurant makes an effort to
utilize local produce, local wines, and locally grown foods.
Each time we've eaten there we've tried a food that we've not
eaten before and been totally impressed with the taste and
presentation of the food items. Make sure you make reservations
- even during the week!"

"Last evening we had dinner at Sunflowers
with new friends and the experience was
outstanding. My main
course was the lobster scampi and it could not have been
improved upon. It was in a word
superb. My wife's duck breast was also excellent. She has
had many duck dishes against which she judged Sunflowers' to be
among the best...We finished off the meal by splitting an
incredibly light yet flavorful cheesecake, The perfect dessert.
The coffee was marvelous. The service was attentive yet we never
felt hurried which enabled us to get to know each other better.
You had four very
pleased patrons!

"...a really remarkable lunch with some very nice
touches...the mixed white and sweet potato french fries and the
presentation were great and the food delicious. It was a treat to
watch interesting customers come in, and an even greater treat
to see how good the chef and staff were - they seemed to really
enjoy working together."

environment were super!"

"Great find ... Fantastic brunch at
Sunflowers Cafe--in the former Aylmer's Grille location on Main
St. My Key West benedict featured two delicious crab cakes;
dining companion's California Benedict had some nice smoked
salmon. Eggs are locally sourced, hollandaise was excellent.
Coconut cream pie for dessert was sublime. The rest of the menu
looks inventive--there are not too many choices in the Monadnock
region, and this place is worth a detour."

gourmet twist ... homemade soups, dinners and desserts are to
die for!"
- Rick, Jaffrey
"The soup was a real hit -- no one has had real Cape Cod clam
chowder in so long!"
- Elaine & Paul, Fitzwilliam
"While on Main Street you might want to take time to eat
... Sunflowers Cafe ... serves up spinach portobello ravioli
at dinner, hot meatloaf sandwiches at lunch and a killer smoked
salmon pizza, just to name some of the choices."

perfect. We visit NH often, and plan to stop in each time we are
near Jaffrey." – Michele

“When one sits in front of an exquisite meal, one cannot help but feel special. And you did just that for all the GSA's attending lunch at your place yesterday. It was wonderful! My only regret was that I could not choose ALL of the menu.”
- Norma A., Granite State Ambassador
“Thank you again for your kindness and generosity in serving us last week long after your restaurant was closed! We were so touched by your hospitality (not to mention that the food was
delicious and the atmosphere lovely!) Judy and I were saying if only your café was closer, we would be regulars.”

"Monday Night Bistro is a smaller menu than other evenings, but just as good. Pizza, Mexican, baked comfort food, sandwiches. My wife had the Chicken Divan and I enjoyed an enchilada plate. Both were delicious! . We really enjoyed ourselves. Good food, quieter than some places, good service. And, open on Monday evening. I highly recommend it."

"Strawberry rhubarb pie is hardly a seasonal item [in December], but Sunflowers provided a magnificent pie for Lynne, luscious brownies for Stan, and adorable meringue mice for Soko and Tillman... The complete reliability of Sunflowers and their willingness to do a small job for an out-of-state stranger, tells me that they could and would handle any challenge to their creativity and artistry."
