Nothing fancy, just good food and drink. Sausages are great. The crab and kielbasa Mac and cheese will not disappoint.

Very cool place with great sausage and beer selection. Menu is unique and tasty in terms of both food and draft beer. We always enjoy visiting and can't wait till next time. read more

Tried this place tonight after seeing the ad in Yelp hunt for a new place to try. We were pleasantly surprised!! Wait staff was attentive and helpful with selections. Food was great!!! Got the kielbasa dip and the totters for an appetizer. I got the grouper schnitzel with cucumber salad and house pirogies, hubby got the wurst sampler. We both left overfull and happy! read more

Had the devils half acre hot dog which was two large hot dogs with a mustard relish and bacon on a toasted roll. Totally awesome you gotta try it read more

Have been here several times for Sunday Brunch. Food is good, service was good. A little pricey for the fair. The renovations are very nice, environment inviting. Want to try for dinner without kids, seems like a great spot for a drink. read more

Love everything about this place. How it looks from the outside; love the black. The tile, the wood,the decor on the inside. The staff is friendly and super attentive. The food is absolutely delicious. Can't wait to come back to try more. Love it read more

First, a disclaimer. This business has only been open a week and has had to deal with big crowds and some vicious electrical outages. I do believe that many of my criticism's will fall away once the kinks are worked out. Okay, the good: Beautiful place. really. Modern hip vibe like you might get in the city. Lots of room and nice bar. Nice beer selection, Staff is very friendly and accommodating. The Not so good. It's loud. really loud.(It was very busy though.) My cocktail was $9.00 and seemed very light on the alcohol. My food was burnt, almost all of it. the pretzel bites were good the first time I went, but the second they were so brown and shrunken that we thought they were breakfast potatoes. It took so long to get them that the kids inhaled them anyway. The French onion soup was so stuffed with bread that I had almost no broth. My burger was potentially good but the patties were charred on one side, so that I couldn't eat it. Even my dessert was burnt! the deconstructed tart had two cookies that were black and crispy on the bottom. (Again, what I could taste was good and I truly believe they will get this worked out in the future.) NO KIDS MENU! Yes, I know they have hot dog, but think twice before bringing children. This is a real family community and to not have a better selection for children is, I believe, a mistake on their part. This isn't Doylestown and the demographic isn't the same as MOM's or 86 West. This is a meat based restaurant. Healthy options are limited. And this is just a personal pet peeve. How can you have a German restaurant without decent pickles? read more

I'm not a fan of German food to begin with so this is going to be biased. there's only 1 page of food. it was pretty expensive. I didn't feel like there was many options. not even chicken schnitzel which is the only German dish I would order. I got perogies and an onion soup, they were okay. they mixed up my friends orders. no one was particularly impressed by anything they got. some things to know are that its really loud inside, not very kid friendly, and they don't do separate checks. read more

Easy to find restaurant on rte 611. It is the one with about 10 of those really tasteless hiway signs along the front. I guess they haven't noticed that as the other local businesses try to make this business zone more appealing no other business uses these tacky forms of advertising. Not even the used car lots. A pity because they obviously put a lot on money in renovation and the vibe they try to set is an attempt at the high end. The food wasn't bad. Wasn't memorable either. Decent but expensive bar food. Some interesting selections but you will pay for the premium. Pretty good beer selection. Friendly service. Not a place for families with kids though. Give it a try if you must but we live local, eat out A LOT and will be skipping this place in the future. We won't be coming back. But it is easy to find. Look for the only place in town that looks like a cheap used car lot. In all fairness, I have to note that the owners removed the road side signs and the place looks much better and fits in among the other business now. Kudos to management for taking note. read more

I'm local and really wanted to like this place. I liked the old establishment and it's minutes from home. New owners gave the place a face lift and appear to be shooting for a more upscale environment.The service was friendly but once the order was taken no one checked on us to see if we needed anything or offer refills on our drinks. This was despite the place being nearly empty. We paid $3 for a kids drink, same as for an adult. Lunch menu is pricey. I got a roast beef sandwich with au jus on a kaiser which comes with one side for a little under $12. The kaiser was a soft Wonder bread version of a roll. Nothing special about the roast beef. I would compare it to an Arby's roast beef sandwich. So basically I got an Arby's meal for twice the price with a smaller portion of fries. My wife was equally unimpressed with the service and her meal. In contrast I had a more substantial prime rib roast beef on a real kaiser with two sides at the Wagon Wheel in Quakertown for $8. Better food, bigger portions and cost 30% less. They're charging a premium but the quality of the meal and service isn't there. There are better options close by. I would skip this place. read more

Our server Jenn made the dining experience one of our best yet especially considering the circumstance we are all dealing with in today times. We look forward to coming back again. Thank you!! read more

I had a horrible experience!!! Service and food was terrible. $7 for 5 fries???? No way... also, don't go there with kids...

Very happy customers over here. Looked a little pricey on the menu but worth every penny!

This place is definitely a diamond in the rough! The food is superb. And the German fare ranks with a top German restaurant in a large city. It has a urban and upscale atmosphere. It is clean and the waitstaff executed their jobs exceptionally. Highly recommend checking this place out! read more

Talk about a standout from the doldrums of suburban bars that might have great bartenders but lack true chefs in the kitchen creating dishes complementary to the beer and spirits served. Well, Devil's Acre Tavern has done it. Fantastic artisan beers and a fabulous menu to boot. Deviled eggs and homemade schnitzel is to die for. And an apple strudel dessert that had the delicateness reminiscent of a fine NYC pastry shop. I'm telling you, this place is fantastic and puts to shame any bar or pub in the area. Cool layout and vibe too ... worth the trip. read more

Had a delicious dinner here the other night. The Spatzel was amazing and I loved the Kielbasa sausage. I'd go ahead and skip the pretzels next time and just order more sausage. read more

Devil's Half Acre is an excellent addition to the local food scene! The space is well-designed, the staff is friendly and knowledgeable, and the menu is excellent -- my family and I have sampled many items. It can be loud when it's crowded (mostly on the weekends) -- a fun environment for watching sports (we had dinner and stayed for drinks in the bar afterwards several nights during the NCAA basketball tournament) but probably not the best choice for a romantic date. The one thing I would suggest is the addition of a simple green "side salad" to the menu -- currently there are only entree-size options available. read more

Very cool spot. I want to eat and drink everything on the menu. And eventually I will

I grew up in Germany and had many authentic German meals so my review of this spot may be a bit more on the critical side than other restaurants I've reviewed. Went here with my husband a few weeks ago. We had the short rib goulash and onion soup to start. Both were decent but I felt that the goulash was missing something. The goulash I've had in the past always had a more intense and spiced flavor. Theirs was a bit bland but the short rib meat was tender. The onion soup was good but needed a bit of salt, which is fine. We both ordered the pork schnitzel - his with the grain mustard and shallot sauce and mine with the gruyere and mushroom brandy sauce. Both could have used more sauce but the schnitzel was excellent and the portion was large. My side of spaetzle was good but I would have liked a bigger portion on my plate. Husband and the red cabbage which he liked a lot and we both had the steak fries. They have a good selection of beer, wine, and interesting cocktails. The decor was modern but warm and the bar area was reminiscent of an underground subway with the tiled walls. We will definitely visit it again. read more

This is my local hang out spot. The entire staff is extremely welcoming and very efficient. My favorite bartender, Nikki, is always courteous and cordial. They have an extensive beer list with a rotating tap line which features a new beer every few days or so. The food is made in house and is always fresh and tasty. The restaurant is a wonderful addition to the area and I highly recommend it! read more

Amazing food and service; great atmosphere! I highly recommend it! The blue cheese and scallion tots, half acre burger, and pretzel bites are amazing! read more

I wanted to like this place but it was just "okay". Food was decent. Beer selection was solid. The waiter was not attentive. My order was wrong (had the wrong side dish, not a big deal, but it was not correct), I mentioned it to the waiter and he looked at me like I was from another planet. Never offered to fix it, just ignored it.. Not sure if I would go back. read more

What a great local spot! The food is awesome! Very nice atmosphere and friendly staff. This is defiantly a fun place. We will be back to try brunch! read more

Great food. Wonderful Cosmos. Came here for the first time this evening. Won't be our last. Pork chop with bacon gravy and tomato risotto...fabulous. Sausage platter-great assortment. Super service. Will definitely come back (with friends)!!! read more

Came in with my family during the first week they were open, and I couldn't believe how beautiful the place is. They have completely transformed what was once the country tavern! From floor the ceiling the beautiful tile, wood accents and modern lighting make this a date night oasis in plumsteadville. Food: German theme. If you like pierogies, dumplings, kielbasa, wurst, pork shank and schnitzel this is the place for you. The food is authentic and indulgently delicious. (Ask about the Black Forest sundae on the dessert menu too!) Booze: the cocktail menu features freshly squeezed juices, house made schnapps, and traditional German beers and wines. Atmosphere: like I said, the place is beautiful, but the jazz music and soft lighting makes the evening that much classier. Kids menu? Just ask! They were very accommodating of my crazy two year old, and even brought out plain spätzle with butter (he's very picky) All in all, this is a wonderful addition to the area. The negative reviews are failing to take into account the fact that they have only been open for a few weeks. Try it for yourself and you'll see! Support your local (German) restaurant :) read more

I made the mistake of writing this place off because I still had connotations of its dark smoky forerunner. You ain't gonna find better food in these parts. Very unique place with a German flair. I got the two-wurst and one side platter. Plenty of food. The kielbasa was the best I've ever had. The sweet potato pierogies were outstanding. Spatzel was great. Apple strudel dessert is well worth the wait. The beer selection is cool -- we liked the German pilsner. And the service was fast, clean and friendly. Great place with very tasty and flavorful food. Don't go if you are seriously dieting. You won't be able to resist. read more

What a gem! I've been excited to try this place since I saw the building being completed--it has a cool exterior and the interior décor lives up to it. Service was extremely friendly and efficient. The beer selection is excellent and our waiter was knowledgeable about the beer and the food. And the food! We love German food and weren't disappointed. My husband and I shared everything. First, the soft pretzels: ours came out a bit overcooked but the cheesy mustard sauce was yummy. We got the wurst platter and liked everything, but the knockwurst was incredible. It came with sauerkraut and we also ordered the braised red cabbage, perogies, and spaetzle. All great, but the cheesy, spinach-laced spaetzle was our favorite side. The desserts sounded good but we were too full. This will definitely enter into our rotation. read more

Devil's Acre Tavern - German Near Me - Plumsteadville, Pennsylvania

I will start out by saying welcome German food. I thought this restaurant was a great addition to our normal local rotation. Husband had the sausage platter. He enjoyed it and presentation was nice. Just wish there was a platter with 2 or 3 links and a side. The only side it came with was sauerkraut which was delicious but with all the yummy sides I wish it included one. I had the beef schnitzel. A little salty for me. Sweet potato fries were delicious, dumplings were ok. We got an extra side of spaezle to taste. We liked it but wish I could get spaezle with no cheese. I hope they do well because menu is limited. Would have loved to see sauerbraten. Also lights flickered all night and acoustics are bad. Really noisy. Service was great. I would definitely cone back again. I would probably give the restaurant a 3.5 if I could. read more

Devils half acre is a new resturant in Bucks County, North of Doylestown. It offers very good new-German food., think red cabbage, spaetzel, wurst. Lunch I had the wurst in cheese sauce with French bread slices. Very good, thick, cheesy and large. My husband shared it with me so we finished it. I had another wurst with potato salad. Wurst was the best. Potato salad, my choice, had too much mustard seed for my taste, but Wurst had mustard as well, so maybe choose a different side. Next day we had dinner there with a NY friend. Pork shank with red cabbage. That was so good. The sweet sour cabbage was a perfect foil for the succulent pork. I took half of this home and had another dinner next day. Dessert was apple strudel. The pastry was not as layered as I expect in good strudel. But the more I ate the more I like it. Flavors, perhaps nutmeg came and went. I loved it. The ice cream was the best I have had outside of Owowcow in a long time. Our waiter was very attentive, helpful and knowledgeable about the menu. Really good for first timers. At lunch the restaurant was very quiet. At dinner. Saturday it was noisy and full of energy. People were having a very good time. I like this place very much. Beer is a speciality, hubby enjoyed the wheat beer our waiter suggested. We will return to this place, for sure. read more

Everything about this restaurant was exceptional! Our waiter was very attentive and in tune if he overheard us questioning something amongst ourselves he was right there. He gave great beer suggestions based on our likes of other beers. Food was outstanding and plentiful. Staff was everywhere helping any task. Overall great experience, high quality food. We drove a good distance to get to this restaurant and we will definitely drive it again!! Definitely suggest reservations on a weekend. read more

See all

This place is awesome! I had the kielbasa and pierogis sooo delicious. I'm not much of a beer drinker so I ordered a cider and I was very pleased. The atmosphere is relaxing and our waiter was awesome! I don't remember his name but he was very quick and friendly. I will definitely go back here. Good family spot or good for date night. read more

Great German food. Recommend the pretzel appetizer. Good specials. Reminds me of family meals when I was young. Huge portions.

Exceptional service and an interesting selection of classic American pub fare with a German influence. The owners of MOMs in Doylestown also own this establishment, with the same high standards in affect. I really enjoyed the knackwurst sandwich. Will definitely be back again. read more

My disclaimer is similar to two of the three that preceded this review. I too was there in the first two weeks of the opening. I too was disappointed by the limited selection on the menu and the high prices. The comments about the place being loud were spot on. Loud to the point of distraction. Service was fair and I attribute that to the management attempting to work out the kinks. It took over an hour to get a very simple order to the table. My wife had a burger, and my sandwich which was essentially a roast beef Au jus with a side of the potato dumplings. The problem was the food quality. RB was meh and dumplings the constancy of rubber. The referenced brown butter on the potato was not to be found on dumpling, plate or flavor. The worst part was the hamburger which my wife could not eat, said it didn't taste right. She was right as she was violently ill that evening and most of the following day. All the symptoms of food poisoning. I believe the "power outages" mentioned in an earlier review resulted in poorly refrigerated meat. I so wanted this to be a positive experience. We have anxiously awaited the opening in awe of the renovations. Other than the noise reflective surfaces impact on the dining experience the renovations are beautiful. I was truly looking for another evening alternative in the neighborhood. I may give it another try without my wife, who is obviously not interested. I trust they have worked out the kinks and hope to see an improvement. One other suggestion, add some variation to the menu, or many will move on. I hate to say it but I miss the former bar food once offered at the location. read more

Amazing from top to bottom... love the ambiance, food is outstanding, service was excellent. It's a gem located just north of the main part of town up 611 and they're doing everything the right way. Buffalo bacon blue cheese tater tot app was one of the beet I've ever had. Entrees and drink selection was fantastic. Highly recommend! read more

Food is always fantastic! Happy Hour specials are great too! Unique and delicious. Good selection of craft beers and everyone is friendly. Good parking and clean! read more

Who knew that such a trendy spot would be located all the way up here! This German-inspired establishment is a welcome change from the rest of the fare in Doylestown. Their sausages are to die for and they have a really inventive cocktail menu that is worth sampling. I tried a Jaeger and Coke; definitely different and definitely good. Just make sure you leave room for dessert. Oh, and if they have the beer cheese dip and pretzels, don't pass them by! That too is not to be missed. read more

So, I've given this establishment two tries--once for lunch; once for happy hour. Lunch was very good--a bit pricey, but the sandwiches got high marks for my group. However, we all decided that it wasn't good enough to make us return--mainly because of the prices. The reason I've giving this pub a low rating is because of today's experience. My friends and I stopped in for happy hour. We were seated in the 'restaurant' part, only to be told that we couldn't partake in happy hour unless we moved to the bar area. We gladly relocated because taking a look at their dinner prices, we didn't want to pay $20+. (I also should mention that we were the only group in the restaurant at the time.) The happy hour menu was limited--hamburger, wings, wurst or meat/veggie/skewer. Only certain drinks were half price. Only pricey beers were on tap, and my good 'ol American beer was served in a can. My friend asked if she could order a Reuben from the lunch menu. No--they couldn't do that--it was either the dinner menu or happy hour one....period! If Devil's Half Acre gives 'half a lick' about customer satisfaction, they are going to need to be more flexible. read more

I have been here several times and each time the food is amazing. The beer selection is great and specials are amazing. The staff is great and friendly. The burgers and links are amazing. They are so juicy and tasty that I cannot begin to describe it. read more

Great little gem in upper Bucks County. My wife and I stopped here for an impromptu Friday night out. This place does not disappoint. Upon arrival we were politely and promptly greeted by a hostess/waiter. The service and food is fantastic, I recommend the rainbow trout and salmon dish. If your looking for a simple classy place to enjoy an evening meal with friends or family, I recommend this place. read more
