Connor's Family Restaurant

With one last night in Amherst, I was hoping to find another great little gem in the town. Sadly, this is not what happened. Connor's is a little family diner on Albion Street, not too far from the TCH.It seems like the kind of restaurant where you're going to get a nice, homemade meal. The restaurant wasn't very busy when we went, and yet some how, we wound up sitting on top of an air conditioner. On top of, as in, it was literally below the two of us seated at the end of the booth, and it seemed to be turned way up. By the end of the evening, we were all freezing. The food was passable. Two of us ordered lobster rolls, and found them small and overpriced. The rolls they used were clearly hot dog buns- making for a small dish- and coupling them with some vegetables didn't seem worth the price. The waitress also couldn't tell us where the lobster was from- not a major detail, but certainly an oversight for people who are concerned about eating locally caught lobster. The real issue though was that one of our companions' orders was done wrong. As in, they brought out the wrong dish. Now, accidents happen, and the waitress apologized, took full responsibility, and brought out the correct dish. My issue, however, was that there was no compensation for the fact that we were delayed about an extra half hour. He didn't so much as get his drinks comped or get a few dollars taken off the price of his meal (as far as he could tell). Unfortunately, the extra delay was particularly unpleasant given that those of us who did receive the proper meals, and then had to sit there waiting for our friend to be served and eat, were the ones seated atop the air conditioner. The waitress also certainly didn't seem in a hurry to bring the bill-in fact we eventually just walked up to the counter and asked to pay. Overall, not what I was hoping for in a small family restaurant.
