    Pizza and cheese and steak egg rolls
    HaLena L.

    Great food! We ordered a pizza and the steak and cheese egg rolls which were delicious. You can sit wherever you like which is really nice if you don't want to sit outside. The service wasn't too bad especially with it being dinner hour on a Saturday. It is a pub so don't expect anything to over the top but the food is really good.

    Visit Date: September 4, 2023 New Hope, PA is one of my happy places. Since discovering it in 2021 with a guy I was seeing/turned friend after he ended things I've tried to get back here as much as possible. It's not a bad drive from Long Island. For some people a two to three hour drive is a bit much, but I drive a lot and I'm fine with the drive. So I went back on September 4 with a bunch of friends. I've been here with people and I've come alone. I like doing both. Everyone picked Fran's Pub to eat in so once I parked my car in the usual lot I park in we walked over to the pub. It's an old school/local pub with a lot of seating. I chose to have the BLT. I'm doing slightly better with money now, not great but a little better because I got money refunded for a flight that I cancelled. But during this time I wasn't sure about the flight refund and I was pretty much almost broke. Technically with the amount of debt I have I am pretty broke no matter what until I work to pay it down. The BLT was good, a nice amount of bacon, lettuce, tomato and Mayo. I think the chips they served were homemade. They were amazing about letting us hang out at the pub for a few hours. There was a group of us so maybe because it was a sort of large order they didn't mind. My one friend didn't want to be outside much because it was brutally hot and my other friend has bad knees and doesn't want to walk around. So 3 out of 5 of us in the group stayed in the pub. My other friend and I walked out after leaving our share of money for what we ate to go to Terri's gifts because I like to stop there when I visit New Hope as well. I would recommend this pub for a New Hope Visit.

    Fran's is a solid 3 star pub in New Hope. It's not the fanciest place but that's ok, it's not supposed to be. The beer is cold, there are plenty of specials, and the outdoor seating is plentiful. The fare is your typical pub fare - wraps, burgers, fried items, with some specials mixed in - Mexican specials on Thursdays, etc. the service is always fast and the food hot. We take our infant here and she sleeps while we eat! We've never had a bad meal here and like to come on the weekdays when it's quieter. The only downside is that one of the two outside bars attracts bikers that park their motorcycles right out front. They can sit for 5-10 minutes or more revving their engines and talking before rolling off in a blaze of dust. It's a bit of a pain when you're trying to have a nice meal and a conversation.

    We had a great experience here! The entire staff was friendly, and we got great recommendations about what to eat and what to do in town. We were conveniently here for "Burger and a Beer" day on Wednesday, when you order a burger your beer comes with the meal (select daughts only) I'd definitely come again, as everyone else who was there also seemed to be having a great time!

    We came here on the 4th of July right before the firework show so it was pretty busy, but we got our food quickly. I ordered the hot pastrami sandwich and my boyfriend order the hot roast beef sandwich. I loved the pastrami. Beware though of the hot roast beef, they put ALOT of gravy on it, like way too much. We had to get another plate just so the sandwich wasn't drowning in it. The drinks were ok. The outside is nicely set up; the inside is just your typical bar/pub. This place advertises like it's a restaurant but it's more of a nice bar.

    Spinach artichoke dip - more of a spinach dip. Could use more cheese and garlic.

    Upgrading my review from several years ago. Had the opportunity to revisit Fran's today and add a star into my original review. Food was better. I had a chicken sandwich/panini and he had a cheese steak. We split some spinach artichoke dip that had me wishing we opted for the wings instead. More of a thick spinach paste. Lacking in flavor, texture and creaminess - but it was fresh. All in all I don't regret popping in to Frans and would have to say that it offers one of the largest outdoor dining in the town but probably will opt for another eatery next time in New Hope.

    I didn't get a chance to dine but I met the workers and they are the coolest! The food looked awesome, but we were just passing through. A beer and off we went. The vibe is excellent for hanging out. Try them out!

    Yummy!!!! Second round

    All you can eat crab on Tuesday's! Hello new friend of mine. $30 per plate and it's unlimited snow crab. You can sit outside or inside, but the crab will continue to come! Only downside is the corn is extremely mushy and over cooked but hey, you win some you lose some. Come here!!!!

    For a quick bite this place has a good burger. No beers on draft which was unfortunate.

    I ate there 2 weeks ago and it was great as usual. it really hasn't changed much . My parents used…read moreto take me there when I was a young girl. I'm now 78 and I still love the place. excellent salad bar, and I had a filet that was tender and juicy and a large order of onion rings.

    I must have driven past this venue 100's of times and never really took notice. It wasn't until I…read morewas out with the family that someone suggested going to The Pub. I learned later that this restaurant has been around since the early to mid 1900's. Plenty of parking in a large open lot. The place is very large and has one of the longest bars I've seen. The wood is very dark and you can see the chefs cooking over the hearth. They don't take reservations and won't see you until your entire party is there. One of the things I liked for our party of 10 was they had no problems with seating as they also have many large round tables. For mixed drinks, they make them pretty big and potent. For my martini, they sent back an extra glass. They also had great bleu cheese stuffed olives. We ordered onion rings (8 large to an order) and fried zucchini. The onion ring I had was pretty good. I didn't have the fried zucchini but heard it was also pretty good. Other than the light fare items, all dinners come with their salad bar which has both iceberg lettuce and Caesar Salad along with many fixings as well as cheeses and bread. I had the Baked Seafood Platter which came with scallops, shrimp, Clam Casino (without the shell), Maryland crab cake and a small lobster tail for $49.99. My wife had the baked chicken breast which she said was quite dry. The dining area is quite large and reminds me of the restaurants at a casino. Some in our group said it reminds them of Medieval Times due to the dark wood vibe. While I thought it was a bit pricey, I would still come back and try their signature steaks or prime rib.
