What a nice spot in charming, little Harmony, PA. On our way back to Erie from Pittsburgh, Harmony Inn was our lunch spot. The menu serves a host of German-inspired items and a wide selection of beers from North Country Brewing. The potato pancakes were large with crispy edges, but I wish more of the pancakes had a crispy crunch; they were more like large hashbrown patties. My Nashville hot chicken sandwich was tasty and I liked the à la carte cole slaw and warmed red cabbage. The service was friendly and attentive. I look forward to choosing Harmony Inn as a dining spot again in the future. read more

Great spot, good beer garden. Yet, the food and service are probably some of the worst in the entire Northern Pittsburgh region. Sorry, you have to do better. I've given you like 10 chances and every owner of this joint has failed. read more

Harmony Inn restaurant is owned and operated by North Country Brewing Co. and serves German cuisine and dozens of craft beers. According to the restaurant's website, Harmony Inn was built in the 1850s and is reported to be haunted by a ghost. Harmony Inn accepts walk-in customers as well as reservations through OpenTable. I made a reservation for dinner for my husband and me. When we arrived at the restaurant, we saw that the exterior of the house has cute eyeball-shaped windows and a painted mustache. Seating is available on an outdoor patio, in interior rooms of the house, and on an outdoor balcony. We sat on the balcony and enjoyed the privacy and fresh air. Please note that OpenTable says that the dress code is business casual, but most customers wore casual clothes. Throughout our meal, our waitress's service was timely and friendly. Here are my ratings for our foods and drink: Giant Bavarian Brezeln - 4.5 stars - This soft pretzel was indeed a giant size and came with mustard and beer cheese. Potato Pancakes - 4 stars - Two large potato pancakes were served with apple chutney. Blackened Catfish Spaetzle - 4.5 stars - The catfish had a flavorful seasoning and was served atop spaetzle noodles mixed with peppers, onions, and corn. Jagerschnitzel - 3.5 stars - My husband ate this main course, and I took a couple of bites. The pork schnitzel was breaded and fried and topped with bacon, onions, and mushroom sauce, but my husband said that he would prefer more flavor. The sides were mashed potatoes and braised red cabbage. Pumpkin Spice Cake - 4.5 stars - This slice of cake was a seasonal special. The cake was moist, had a nice flavor of pumpkin and spice, and was topped with rich icing and a spectacular-looking caramel-spun sugar. Autumn Leaves Mocktail - 4 stars - This mocktail contained cranberry juice, orange juice, Sprite soda, and lime juice, and it tasted good. read more

My husband and I went to the weekly open mic night and decided to have dinner while there. The history of the place is great and worth taking a few minutes to read in the menu. You're welcome to roam around the downstairs and upstairs where there is seating also. The menu is really varied and offers something for everyone. Since there are German roots connected to history, a lot of German cuisine is available like various spaetzel sand schnitzels. They also make their beer and their sodas in house. The cream soda is delicious and has great vanilla flavor. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. It's a little pricey but worth the try! read more

Stopped in the charming little town of Harmony ,Pa. We decided to have lunch. Spaetzle with brussel sprouts with mustard sauce, sounds like great German dish. Oh no. Spaetzle was done nicely but half done old brussel sprouts NOT. They must make mustard sauce by the gallon, the dish was drenched in mustard sauce almost to the point you could not eat it. Needless to say we could not eat it all. Beer was good. Service was good but she never smiled once,I guess having a bad day. Would not stop again read more

I always enjoy the Harmony Inn, especially on warm Sundays for live music on their patio 4-7pm. The outdoor bar & patio is fun & dog friendly. There are so many great bands that play there. I wish that they would invest in some kind of small awning or roof for the musicians in the summertime. It gets SO hot for them in the sun. In the winter or inclement weather bands play inside the bar area, which is quite small & the bar gets packed. They have a huge amount of craft beers on tap. The menu has lots of choices. I opt for potato pancakes when possible, and their German food selection, such as spaetzle or schnitzel are good as well. As are their burgers. The building is super cool & quite historic (and haunted). And the town of Harmony quaint & historic as well. read more

For my friends birthday we wanted to go somewhere new but wanted a steak. We heard good things about this place and wanted to check it out. There is so much history here at the Harmony Inn and you can feel it when you walk through the doors. Its an old house that was converted into a restaurant. It has a nice patio for the summer and a nice size bar inside. Not too many tables though. I ordered a steak with mashed potatoes and asparagus. The potatoes and the asparagus were spot on. Honestly couldn't tell you which one I loved more. The Steak didn't have too much flavor but it was still really good. Then for dessert we got a Gluten Free Chocolate cake piece to share. That was super rich and tasty. My friends got the wings and they said they were delicious and then he got a Chocolate cake as well. The service was pretty good and the waitstaff was very friendly. I'll definitely be back to try some other things too! read more

Good food and great beer in a great old bar. So many great beers on tap like my favorite- a barleywine called The Embalmer. String and great tasting. They have many beers from their duster brewery North Country Brewing Company in Slippery Rock. The food is as good as the beer. I had the black bear burger and it was cooked perfectly to order. Friendly servers with good knowledge and a nice looking bar and rooms. Worth a visit. read more

First time eating at Harmony Inn. Initially wanted to go with something German, but the fish sandwich caught my eye and I decided to go with that. Fish was hot and crispy. Great flavor, bun was nice and warm. Served with some tartar sauce, lemon slice, and a side of seasoned fries. Excellent seasoning on the fries if I do say so myself- reminded me of some type of bbq/old bay combo. The waitress/bartender was great. Let me sample a few different beers since I was indecisive. Great beer menu, over 40 brews on tap. Overall, great time at the Harmony Inn. Didn't see any ghosts unfortunately. Can't wait to come back once the weather is a tad nicer to sit outside. read more

This place will always be a favorite of mine - I got engaged here! There is a wonderful historic atmosphere here, and the house's history is a must-read. Whether you're in the dining area both upstairs or downstairs, the bar, or on the patio, there just isn't a bad seat in the house! I've always had a kind and attentive waiter or waitress, but service is always slow. But I never mind spending time here! I've had burgers, spätzle, schnitzel, and tonight I had a Reuben. I've never had a bad meal here! My Reuben was fantastic. Great corned beef, nice acidic kraut, and crunchy rye make for a delectable meal! The big pretzel is the perfect app to share, and the mustard it comes with has a great pop of horseradish. North Country Brewing is on tap, and I love a pumpkin beer in the fall time. Another great experience tonight! If you've never been, check this place out! read more

Returned to the scene one week later ... complete 180* ... the service was night and day better than a week ago. We sat inside this time, and Nick seated us, took our orders, brought our food, refilled our drinks, and brought the checks immediately when asked. He was very affable, fast, efficient and really made a difference. I had the Bacon and Brussels Spätzle and it was quite good, and my cousin had the Hot Chicken Sandwich, which he enjoyed. The only bad thing was that the WiFi didn't work, and Nick actually warned us when I asked for the password, that it was known to be problematic. This visit gets 4.5 stars, and gets a "Cheers," but one week ago it was a "Jeers." Cheers! read more

Incredible restaurant hidden in the local historic neighborhood! A converted hotel great for any season with indoor seating, a full bar, and beautiful outdoor patio. We arrived around 5:00pm on the weekend in order to grab a table on the patio, where they allow dogs, so we were excited. The wide array menu consists of German style food, as well as American favorites. I ordered the Nashville Hoy Chicken Sandwich and it was probably the best I've ever had! The buttermilk-marinated fried chicken was incredibly crispy with a tender and juicy inside. The sauce stole the show though with a sweet, yet spicy flavor that burst with different seasonings and didn't overwhelm with heat. Even the pickles and kaiser roll were delicious despite being plain. American cheese and a light amount of mayo topped the sandwich to add even more taste and keep the sandwich light and not dry. On the side they give a nice helping of crispy seasoned fries so the meal is very filling. Absolutely delicious and I am craving more already! The drink menu has over 50 options, so there's something for everyone's preferences and trying something new. I got the Strawberry and Cream Sour, very smooth and flavorful, perfect for the summer weather. They even offer a dog menu of safe options to treat your pet. Great experience all around and I highly recommend visiting! read more

We loved our recent dining experience at the Harmony Inn. We both had different variations of the schnitzels and wow, were they delicious! My husband had to step a bit outside of his comfort zone, (he's not much of an adventurer when it comes to new food) but he was also a fan! The kiddos shared an order of chicken tenders and fries and the chicken was also made to perfection. We were initially hoping to sit outside on their beautiful patio, but a crazy thunderstorm prevented it. Inside was super cozy tho and otherwise we may not have ventured inside the Inn. We felt the prices were a bit on the higher end for some things, however 9/10 stars from us! read more

Went here for a bonding event with co-workers and I must say I will definitely be returning on my own. This was a cute, unique spot to enjoy food, drinks, and live entertainment if you are there on the right night. We had amazing service as our servers had good positive energy and attended to our needs as a larger group. I had the cheesesteak which had beer cheese in it and it was really good. For appetizers we had pretzels (which are a must have as it was a perfect texture and the sauces were good), flatbread (also really good), and fried pickles (I don't eat pickles but my colleagues liked it). I will be returning and I recommend it for folks who are looking for something new. read more

Great food and great service.. recommend highly. Love the ambience.. warm and old fashion

This time we visited this place and we had the best experience ever. We sat outside. Great ambiance and amazing weather. The service was so timely and friendly. Thank you Kaitlyn. We ordered a variety of beers and ciders, pretzels, Drunk fish, crab cake, and Strudel for dessert. All were tasty. Except for the crab cake that had too much pepper added to it. Overall, we really enjoyed our visit and will visit this place again and again. A suggestion for the manager: why don't you fill the little fountain you have in the yard? It would add to your the charm of your place significantly. read more

This place is really cool and I've gone here a couple of times because I've heard it was haunted. I don't know how true it is, but my sister and I do enjoy the coziness and slight thrill that comes with eating here. I do wish they had more vegetarian options And maybe some vegan options. read more

I was visiting one the weekend and my friends brought me to Harmony Inn. What a beautiful and awesome building! Even more cool that it was built so long ago. While the service was slightly slow for 6 patrons, the food and ambiance kept me into it. I'd love to have a local joint like this! I had the Bleu & Black burger, my friend got the hot chicken. All great food. read more

My wife and I went to Harmony Inn with friends. We where seated immediately and waitress came over for drink orders. I have to say i was a bit disappointed in the service as the only time we sore the waitress was when she delivered the food and then the check. The waitress never came back to see if the food was good. We stated off with fried pickles and a giant pretzel. I had never had a fried pickle before and it was delicious. The pretzel was huge and was great. I ordered a reuben sandwich with french fries. The sandwich was ok nothing great, I have had better. The fries where not good at all not sure but had a weird taste to them. The service as I said was totally terrible. The food was adequate and I would normally give 3 stars but the service being the way it was i would of given it 1 star so I give them 2 stars which is being generous. I would not go again. read more

Very quaint place with a great history. Very relaxed with great service for us. I had the Drunk Fish which is beer battered cod with fries. It was OK but nothing to write home about. Wife had a honey burger which she enjoyed. Pecan pie was not from the south but was ok. The beer menu is expansive and tasty. There are a lot of great options on the menu. We will be back. read more

So this is an updated review from my last one. I will start by saying this has never been my favorite place. The venue itself is interesting and nice. The issue I've always had was the food, I've never had anything here that I could truly say was good. It's for that reason that I've not want to go back that often. The place does a great business however. The other night we were trying to figure something different out and my wife said let's give it a try again. She likes their fish sandwich. Well that night the place was decorated for Christmas which was nice. We were seated right beside a Christmas tree. Our service this evening was decent, she had a large party by us that took up much of her time, but we still received good service. First things I noticed was that the food prices have increased greatly. I also looked over their very large draft beer list. They had plenty of their own beer and some outside options. What I did notice is how much more expensive the outside options were, around $3-$4 more than most other venues. My wife ordered the fish sandwich that' she usually loves from there. Something was changed, I believe she said the roll is now different and she didn't like it as much. I ordered one of the burgers. I'll be honest, it wasn't bad. Again the venue is nice, the parking is so so. The food is hit or miss. The prices are a little more than most places for the same thing. read more

Our "Go To" no more. We always loved this place but... it's gone downhill while the prices have gone up. Really a disappointing meal tonight. The Ruben used to be the best quality pulled beef and just amazing, but now it's cheap, fatty, chewy, meat. The Schnitzel was top notch but no longer. At $26 it should be fantastic, or at least as good as it once was. The food is now only mediocre while the prices certainly aren't. Sadly we will not be coming back. What was once a great local restaurant is past its prime. Perhaps a nice place for a beer, but stay away from the food. read more

Great location and atmosphere. Great service. If the weather is nice, this is a great place to dine outside. The cocktails were good, not necessarily original, but good. If you're into beer the brewery has a wide variety of options. Our meals were all good, higher quality and original options. The Schnitzel was awesome and the fire sauce is spicy! Dessert was good, mostly, not made in house so it was a little "store" bought run of the mill stuff. Either way the location and vibe was great so overall this is one of the best options in the area. Fyi- on a busy night parking is a little annoying. read more

We hadn't been to Harmony Inn for quite a while, and now we remember why. Service was very slow! We waited for someone to acknowledge we were standing in front them at the host stand. We waited for water. We waited for our drinks, which came out AFTER appetizers. We waited for a box after asking twice. I could go on. On top of this, we sat outside and did not realize they allow SMOKING on their patio. Make the sign bigger and much more obvious. As an asthmatic with an asthmatic child, this was a terrible experience. We felt like we were in a time warp - this is seriously part of your experience in 2025?! All around, terrible experience. We won't be back anytime soon. read more

What a massive disappointment. Ordered the pork jagerschnitzel and paid a $4 upcharge for potato pancakes based on pictures I saw of both on previous Yelp reviews. The schnitzel was small, I'd guess no more than 4 oz of meat, and the gravy looked nothing like what was apparently served in the past. Taste was just OK, seemed to have minimal bacon. What was really awful were the potato pancakes. They looked nothing like the pictures and actually resembled hash browns. BAD hash browns. They were tasteless. Everything on the plate was served a couple degrees above room temperature. There's no way their food cost on this meal was more than $3 and it cost $30 with the upcharge. On top of the terrible value of the meal, the service was just as bad. We were there with a party of six and waited FOREVER to have our order taken, first for drinks, then the meal. A round of drinks took over 20 minutes to arrive and I'm not sure we would've gotten them at all if we didn't ask the server. She mentioned something about an event going on upstairs and the bar being backed up, but I don't see any events listed for 10/2 on their website. Coincidentally, the drinks showed up about a minute after we asked. Pictures are of my meal and a jagerschnitzel and potato pancakes previously posted on yelp for comparison. My wife ordered the grilled chicken spaetzle. She was served spaetzle, and some dry cubes of chicken, but there were minimal, if any, "sauteed onions or herbs in a creamy butter sauce". It was in a thick cheesy sauce. The good news is this was probably better than the way it was supposed to be prepared. So many better restaurants where we could've spent that $100 . . . read more

So I understand a brewery took over. Not a beer drinker so wouldn't impact me. But my friends who are beer drinkers highly recommend this establishment for their beer flight options. I started with the house salad - nice assortment of mixed greens and vegetables. The vinegarette was very nice. I saw the Reuben on other reviewers' pages and my decision was made. Rather than strips of meat, it appeared to be chopped. It was beautifully sloppy just what I want from a Reuben. The French fries were hot and crisp but unfortunately over salted. I had never been to Harmony. There are real log cabins still in use. I plan to go back and explore ... and eat at the Harmony Inn again. read more

Maybe at one time this was a good place but trust me, it no longer is. They say traditional german food but ive been to german restaraunts and this place isnt even close. The food is way overpriced and very bland, no flavor. Lacking in choices also. They must have major trouble hiring here also cause the wait staff lacks experience and basically just takes your order, dont expect to see them again or refill your drink. Horrible experience , will never return and the place wasnt busy. read more

The Harmony Inn is a gorgeous historic building with a vibrant happy feeling. We ordered the catfish spaetzel which was delicious! The mix of flavors was spot on and it was cooked to perfection. I couldn't have been happier. We also ordered the fire schnitzel which was okay. The sauce was great, but I thought the oil used to fry the schnitzel tasted a little old. My husband liked it though, so maybe it was just me read more

This place was DELICIOUS. Okay now that I got that out let's talk shop. When coming up the road the place looks amazing. It is such a cute little area that I wanted to explore if it was nicer. The big mansion / hotel that it is in has eyeballs and a mustache on the side of the house with the windows. I don't know why but it warmed my heart and I thought it was adorable. They have plenty of outdoor seating with an outdoor wood fireplace to heat the patio. It was a little bit too cold for me to want to sit outside but the fire was still going so it had a cozy atmosphere right when you walked in. We got sat right away and you can tell that this is a place that locals love to go to. The waiters and waitresses kept on saying hello to people coming in by name. Love that. The waitress that we had was so nice and I believe her name was Maddie, she really went above and beyond helping us out. I ordered a beer, a Reuben, the dill pickle appetizer, and the beet salad. Everything was amazing. The Reuben was so big that I took half of it home for lunch the next day. The Reuben comes with a dill pickle and fries. The dill pickles were spears but they weren't so big that it was hard to eat them. Those usually those aren't my favorite, the spears that is, but here they were great. The Harmony Inn also has a relationship with NCBC and the beer list is extensive. Seriously, was very surprised. The honey beer was delicious, and I would get it again in a second. I look forward to coming back here. It wasn't that far away and the food and beer were worth it! read more

Harmony Inn - Piled high reuben - American Near Me - Harmony, Pennsylvania

The ambience here is wonderful. Truly an experience and a trip back in time. We began with the potato pancakes with Apple chutney. And the fried pickles. I was not particularly impressed with the chutney. The sweetness was overbearing and truly drowned out any and all traces of flavor in the potato pancake. This is basically hash browns. I felt the chutney should have been a bit less sweet so that both flavors could jive together. The fried pickles were decent but not memorable, I'm afraid. The fries were AMAZING! Salty with a light dusting of sugar - lovely! However, please stay away from the brautwurst. It looks amazing, but has a heavy chemical flavor (liquid smoke?) and the mustard was so overpowering that it burns. Would not recommend. Drunk fish was amazing! Lightly battered and fresh. The dessert was certainly a high point as well. I ordered the Reese's blondie with a scoop of ice cream. Loved every bite. Overall, I would recommend this place sans the brat. Do try it! read more

Went for dinner with friends. Wasn't our first time there so that speaks for itself. The restaurant is in a charming old house (huge) and it the summer has a great outdoor patio area. But alas, it's February. They have a great full liquor bar inside. Lots of dining area. We climbed a long staircase to an upstairs room. There's not a bad selection on the menu so I won't fawn over our choices as other reviews cover well. But quality, service and portion sizes were all great. I definitely recommend and I don't think you'll be disappointed. read more

Our male hostess was dressed in a pair of shorts and a tee shirt. I thought that he was a homeless person. Our waiter was dressed for a hike with a baseball cap on while serving us. The food was horrible. The fire schnitzel that I had was so dry and hard that I couldn't even cut it. My wife felt the same way about her schnitzel order. The spaetzle I ordered was also dry. I had to ask the server twice for gravy to put on it and the gravy was garbage. The mashed potatoes had a yellow tint to them which I never ate. The potato pancakes and red cabbage were fine. I ordered a Guinness, a glass of Reisling and a Hefe Weissen beer and they were out of all three. I drank water. The woman that actually brought our dinners to the table out of the kitchen also had shorts on and an unflattering top. We were afraid to order desert and had to wait fifteen minutes for our check after we asked twice. The male hostess ended up bringing it out. I can't believe that anyone would patronize this place. I'll never go back. It was the worst $80 that I ever spent. McDonald's would have been more satisfying. Parking was an issue here as well but I found a place on the street. The grounds needed work. They were very unkept and the interior was drab, old and in need of a complete makeover. Enough said. read more

What a neat restaurant! The ambiance is awesome - both inside and out. We went during dinner time and the service was fantastic. I got the classic German veggie spatzle with chicken and it was delicious. I would highly recommend this place if you're in the area! read more
