This restaurant is a little drive for me, but so worth it! Happy hour is phenomenal. Food amazing. Bartender is just so sweet. Hopefully you get Tyler as your waiter as he’s so great. I cannot wait to go back!

Came on a random Wed for dinner around 5pm and sat at the bar. The bartender, Jon P, was very friendly and welcoming. He took my drink and food order. He offered me the happy hour and regular menu. They have a nice selection of food choices. I decided on the meatloaf and it was DELICIOUS!!!! Their food and drinks are priced well. I’ll be back!!

My husband and I visited Good News for dinner after their recent ownership change and remodel, and we have to say we were impressed! Though I had never visited before, I had seen pictures of what it previously looked like inside, and you can tell they did extensive renovations, but it’s absolutely beautiful! The food was all delicious, and the short rib and scallops were cooked perfectly. Our server was kind and attentive. I can’t wait to come back and try more of their menu!

I love this place. When I hike up in this area I make sure I stop here for a meal after the hike. The food is unique and delicious. There hasn’t been a meal I haven’t liked.
Update:
I was very happy to see Good News’s name was kept. Whenever we are hiking within 15/20 minutes of this place, we have to stop and eat here.
This trip we ordered the cauliflower brussels sprouts and we all ordered burgers.
The brussels sprouts and cauliflower were so good. I wish I ordered more. The burger was OK. I’m not sure it felt like it was missing something. But it was still good. The staff were super friendly, super knowledgeable and helpful. And I like the ambience they have now they changed up the building a little bit.

The ambiance is cute, elegant, classy, yet also relaxed & casual.
The host and server were both friendly, energetic, and enthusiastic. They gave us the right amount of attention. Not too much, but they came by often enough that we never had to wait.
The wine, beer, cocktail, and mocktail lists were all extensive, filled with interesting, high-quality selections. If we had been drinking more, there would have been many more things we would have liked to have ordered.
We ordered the Pear Martini, which was elegant, balanced, flavourful, and vibrant. And the Strawbery 75, which was also delicious.
The food was delicious! We ordered the Tuna Tartare appetizer, the Seared Nantucket Sea Scallops, the LOTS OF LOBSTER “ADULT” BAKED MACARONI THE ORIGINAL, and the Creme Brulee Cheesecake.
The cheesecake, and the scallop risotto were both just fine. But the real standouts were the Lobster Mac, and the Tuna Tartare. Both of those were AMAZING!
We’ll definitely plan to return!

We had a long week and barely got to see each other, so my husband picked here for dinner & catching up. It was a little busy when we came, but service was attentive & all of our food was so delicious!

Had supper at Good News Restaurant and Bar and it turned out real nice. Food came out hot and full of flavor, portions big enough I almost could not finish my plate. Staff was friendly, kept our drinks topped off, and the place had a relaxed feel to it. I would be happy to stop in here again.

Food has been great every time we go but the bartender Noel was exceptional. Not only was she funny & personable but she makes a great cocktail! Lex the manager is always super friendly and goes out of his way as well to make your dining experience enjoyable.
