Stopped in for a quick drink and a small bite. Had the Caesar salad. Sounds boring, but was quite the opposite. Mixed with romaine and kale, pickled onions, lots of cheese and delicious croutons. Wish the dish was bigger!! Best Caesar salad I have ever had!! read more

I got there late and just wanted to grab something to eat to go. Huge mistake! I ordered the crab mac and cheese...I was given a miniscule portion in a little to go cup. When I got home and saw it, was very disappointed. Then, when I went to eat it, there was virtually NO crab meat contained therein. The was no crab meat discernable in it at all. I felt cheated. With all the great restaurants in downtown Lancaster and another hotel restaurant with outdoor seating and great food (Imperial), why would I go back to the Marriott and risk another bad experience? I paid $13 for a few tastless noodles...! Essentially, I paid $13 for a .75cent Kraft macaroni meal... read more

My first experience here was less than stellar, but at the insistence of manager, I was invited back. Both times the food was incredible and our servers very nice. I think the appetizers were the definite stars both times. I truly appreciated the attention the manager, Mikaela took, to make things right. read more

Lounge, bar and restaurant in spacious venue with modern rustic decor. We asked the bartender for seating because we did not see a hostess stand. QR code access to simple menus for lunch and dinner of gourmet dishes offered in different sizes and at reasonable prices. Service was great, but one of the servers was wearing mask below his nose; Tommy Copper neck tube masks may help servers in more ways than one. Food was fresh, hot, and served in thoughtful presentations. The wine and cocktail options where great and mix and pours where spot on. Great experience! Thank You! read more

We made it early for our reservation but they seated us right away anyway. Service was excellent. Focaccia was amazing. My Italian husband is used to making his own at home so he has very high standards and he's still raving about it. The Brussels sprouts were so crispy and the goat cheese paired really nicely. I had the zuca paste which far exceeded my expectations. My husband had the pork belly which was also really good. Can't wait to return! read more

Absolutely delicious! Perfect spot for a date night. The service and food was delightful. Can't wait to come back! read more

We have been to Plough a few times, but today was the ultimate disappointment. My friend who is Kosher and Vegetarian got brussel sprouts and it had bacon chunks on the sprouts but were underneath them. She ate a few peices until she realized and when she found out it was beyond upsetting. She has never eaten pork in her life. Unbelievable. The manager came and comped her meal and desserts which was nice but still shocked that they would and could even make that mistake as a high end establishment in the area. Really disappointing... they should be able to accomodate vegetarians which is a common food restriction. read more

Great restaurant experience! Our server was Jake and he was so nice and welcoming to us! We were only able to try the brunch menu, but we were very happy with our meals. The French toast was not too sweet, which I love, and fluffy. Very filling as well. The sandwich was my favorite; the potatoes were perfectly crispy. The restaurant is spacious, clean, and nice to look at. There are Lots of windows to let the light in. Parking is street parking. It is important to give yourself enough time to find parking near the restaurant. read more

I had a wonderful meal last night. The entree I had last night is now my favorite chicken dish from a restaurant and the charcuterie was very nicely thought through. The cheese selections were all delicious. The staff was great at explaining the menu. I'm really impressed by the Chef, kitchen and staff. Great work! read more

LOVED our meal! Holy cow! We had the deviled eggs (amazing), a clam special (THE best clams I've ever had in my life) and we shared the crab cakes. Everything is plated so beautifully and created with the best flavors. If you want a delicious, well curated dinner, definitely book ressies now! Staff was really sweet, too. read more

We are local to Lancaster and wanted to try out this new place, but were hesitant because there have been very mixed reviews on OpenTable. We had an excellent experience the food was delicious, and when we told Simon, our amazing server that we were on a time schedule he was very accommodating and easy to access when needed. He also had the bartender fix some perfect, refreshing mocktails for us to enjoy. We both had the burger, which was cooked perfectly and felt affordable for what we got. I did not initially understand that the restaurant is in fact inside the Marriott, so maybe some mixed reviews are coming from conference attendees. However it does make parking in the Marriott garage easy, or there is valet. We had a good experience andwould return here again. read more

Food very tasty, especially the focaccia! Service uneven but we arrived right after a large group. Will give them another chance.

Poor bar service and bad drinks (flat beer, cocktails too sweet). Always something out of stock

We had a lovely evening celebrating my stepson's birthday last night. Everything was perfect! Absolutely loved the vibe in the restaurant. We sat in a nice half circle booth by the bar. The drinks, the service (Jake was a sweetheart), the food and of course, the company was fantastic! Keep doing what you're doing Plough Thank you for a special dinner read more

We enjoyed the food. The specials were great although it would've been nice to get more than 3 pieces of tomato toast per order. Our server was friendly and knowledgeable. He checked in on us, but the kitchen was a little slow. The 5 of us each had something different from pasta to chicken to hamburgers. It was a nice touch adding the location of the farm for the food. read more

Ran in for a cocktail and a nosh mid-afternoon, but not much of an app menu so we just had the cocktails - but they were GREAT! They have really upgraded the hotel bar since the last time we were there. We'll be back. :) read more

Plough - The Goddaughter and the sangria were both delish! - Tapas/Small Plates Near Me - Lancaster, Pennsylvania

I've never written a bad review but this is the worst experience I've had at a restaurant. We went for our reservation and was told that we could sit at the bar. Not once were we told that the food was behind. Hardly anyone was in the restaurant, yet we sat after ordering food for over 40 minutes. Not even the bread we ordered was brought out. The bartender not once acknowledged that our food was running late or said she would go to check on it for us . After 45 minutes we asked to cancel our order. Our bartender stormed to the kitchen then came back and slammed the check down in front of us and walked away. My husband said I can't believe you didn't even comp a drink after we've waited this long. She responded, "well you drank the two wines didn't you and walked away laughing." We will not be back and we will let our friends know how disappointing we are in a place we used to love for date night. It's one thing to be behind but your lack of service is unacceptable. read more

Dinner for two tonight for my wife and I was very underwhelming. She had the Coffee& Chipotle Bbq Short Rib. The meat was very tender but bland in flavor. Definitely needed more seasoning. The rice, along with everything else with the dish was very disappointing. I had the Slow Roasted Duck Breast. The Duck was fine. The Wheat Berries served with it were undercooke. It was like eating soft popcorn kernels. Very disappointing mea. The Service was fantastic. Very attentive, and timely. The ambiance was also nice. What a let down for the food though. We had such high expectations, and were so excited. read more

This review is just for current drinks/bar service. We have eaten dinner here pre-covid and it was fine at that time. However......popped in for drinks prior to heading to The Exchange for dinner. The short female bartender proceeded to display how much she was not enjoying her job. Bartending typically requires some personality and mixology knowledge. None to be found here. I ordered the white sangria which was poured into a glass from a tub below the bar. I understand these drinks are pre-prepped but it was gross. Bartender sucking down her whipped cream Starbucks frappe behind the bar was gross too. Left unimpressed by the service and drinks. Won't be my first choice for a nightcap or predinner drinks unless I'm staying at the Marriott and want convenience only. read more

Had the burger, safe bet. Wife had pork & noodles. Very little pork to speak of. Service is lacking. Staff needs better training. Perhaps struggling to find quality employees after COVID. read more

This used to be a go to when downtown. Apparently ownership or management changed and with it the service, decor and food. Btw, this is pre Covid. Just getting to the review now. As we always did in the past we stopped in for drinks and a app. We tried to sit in the couches as we just like to drink and talk. Well not one server came by. I asked the hostess and they said we had to go to the bar to order. Ok. So I stood there for 5 min while all three bartenders saw me but did nothing to help me. I gave up. As we decided to walk out my friend saw two other friends at the bar. We went over and while talking to them two seats opened up. So ok we have seats. Still took forever for one of them to help us. The one girl had a shirt on so small that she actually was using a stapler to keep it closed. I guess that's what they were focused on. We finally were served sub par drinks and a only so so octopus dish. The bartenders were more focused on having a good time talking to each other then helping guests or cleaning the bar and behind. It was a mess back there. So long story, but haven't been back. read more

Omg! This place was delicious! Steered off with an amazing cocktail Port off the Storm, then killed the amazing Red Snapper & Salmon. Excellent quality on the food and the presentation. Felt like I was back in LA. Very well balance of local vegetables and sauces. read more

Food was just just okay and all we ordered were hamburgers, the service was terrible. My friend ordered an appetizer and it came after her food and only after she asked about it. This was my first and last time I will go there. Then to top it all off the waitress was rude. read more

I'm in Lancaster Pa for work, staying at the beautiful Marriott upstairs. I decided to stop in for dinner last night. The cheeseburger that I had was one of the best I've ever had. I believe it's all local farms that supply the food. Definitely recommend getting it. Buttery soft and delicious. You will not be disappointed. I would have given it 5 stars if the bartenders were a bit friendlier. read more

Great food! They know what medium really means when it comes to cooking steak. The goat cheese dumplings and the yankee cornbread were fantastic. Our server Maurice was excellent. read more

McKenzie was my server,I was very happy she was very patient and courteous. McKenzie made our dining experience so pleasant after a very stressful day. I wish every guess at this hotel can experience her warm and personable feeling. Claire was also very helpful and professional. read more

I've been to Plough a couple times at this point but tonight I went for my best friends birthday and could not be more upset or disappointed with both the service and the food! The service was so slow only with a couple tables in fact our food took over 50 minutes to arrive. The server failed to inform the countless items that had been sold out and my friend (the one who's birthday it was) was unable to find a single entree on the menu to accommodate her simple restrictions (pescatarian) so when it was time to order she was thoroughly disappointed. The food when it arrived was cold which was ironic since it took forever to come. While the server was apologetic, there was no change to our service. Overall so disappointed with this outing, especially since it was supposed to be such a special night. read more

The waitress was very nice and the decor was cute! But the place smelled like rotten fish. The bistro steak was ( one skewer of tips) rubbery and came with a large serving of thin frozen fries. Kind of an odd combo for an upscale restaurant. And $28 is a joke. There are no veggie sides to add on or even available. The desert said cake with sorbet but was just a scope of sorbet and two tiny crumbles of a cake. The spoon was bigger then the serving. They only reason this is getting two stars is that the waitress was nice. Super disappointed since we drove an hour to dine there read more

Plough - Supposed to be cake with sorbet. You can see the spoon is bigger then the serving - Tapas/Small Plates Near Me - Lancaster, Pennsylvania

This restaurant offers incredible food and strong tasty drinks. Stayed at the Marriott Hotel which houses this delight and they were fantastic. Not like many hotel restaurants. We decided to have a few small plates and each one was insanely good. Brussels sprouts, roasted cauliflower and mussels! Each dish perfectly done and served by a very knowledgeable and friendly waiter. Helped make my very first restaurant experience since the pandemic one of my best ever!! read more

Stayed overnight in Lancaster City on a Monday and most restaurants were closed. I opted for Plough and was pleased with the service and quality of food. As a hotel guest, they allowed me to take a cocktail to-go, which was great. Food was a bit pricey and there weren't as many options as I had anticipated, but the burger I tried was great. Cooked correctly and very flavorful. All staff were wearing masks. read more

Nice atmosphere, good service, decent food and drinks. Overall a solid choice if not particularly special.

This was our first meal in this romantic comfortable restaurant. The food, all of it, was excellent. The apps and the main courses were delicious. This was all enhanced by our sweet delightful waitress Kieran ( spelling wrong). It was her first night if waitressing and she made you feel that they were so glad you were there. Answered every question. When you go ask for her. You'll be glad you did read more

Great place to catch up. Excellent bar and food with plenty of options. Open late with decent prices. I was here for a work trip. This place had good food, decent portions and ok prices. Located in the hotel we stayed at mafe it that much more convenient. Definitely try it out. read more

I saw a few 3 stars before we tried this restaurant, many complaining about friendliness and service time. But I liked the look of the menu and decided to form my own opinion. Our waitress was super sweet and friendly. I did notice she had quite a few tables and after we got our orders in, we did see less of her in the very long wait time from our order to when our food actually came out. You know when you're enjoying your wine/drink and you think you don't care about when the food comes and then you hit a point like, "Seriously, what happened to our food order?" I did hit that point and none of the staff seemed to notice. I walked to the bathroom at some point and the kitchen staff seemed to be having a great time, cutting up. We also waited quite some time for our bottle of wine. The hostess apologized for the wait and said she had to retrieve the wine from the cellar. I don't know how that warm red wine was sitting in a cellar...red wine in my house in Texas is much cooler than what that was served, and $110 for the bottle (wine selection is limited and pricey). The food was tasty and the atmosphere was nice. We're tourists so we probably would not have the opportunity to go back to the restaurant anyway; if I was a local, not sure I would. Sorry. :( read more

Jenny was AMAZING! She was so attentive and our food was GREAT!! Highly recommend the brussel sprouts for an appetizer and duck/pork for dinner!! The black widow was the best drink on the menu! read more

We recently dined at Plough. I was not overly impressed. I think the dining room and bar need to be more separate. We started with the milk bread which was super dense. It didn't have a lot of flavor except the garlic and everything seasoning on top. My husband had the scallops. The scallops tasted a bit over cooked, but were served with a nice risotto. I had the short rib over potatoes. My meal was good, but not remarkable. It also would've been nice to have some vegetables with it. We also had the chocolate cake for dessert which was delicious. Our server was great and on top of it. I'd be willing to give them another shot. read more

Raw hamburger. Focaccia bread soaked in oil on the bottom like a sponge. Could be wrung out. Weird obsession with apples on the menu. Apples everywhere. Good atmosphere though. read more

The restaurant looks great but the food is not. We've been there three times and have never enjoyed the food. Our last trip there we ordered the rotisserie chicken for two but were given the feast instead which was barely warm and not good at all. We brought it to their attention but weren't offered a correction and were charged for what we ordered but weren't given. It's a shame the food is so bad because the restaurant looks great and has a lot of potential. read more

Not so good. I suspect this establishment is not long for the scene in Lancaster. The food was so so and not worthy of the Lancaster food scene or the price. The bartender, however is great and rises to the level of master mixologist. read more

Good food, pretty rough front of house. Not really disappointed, just leaving a review as a reminder to not come back. We've tried it here a few times and the service is always a bummer. read more
