Good icecream, do come here. Service is always quick with good atmosphere. All outside no dine in and closed in the winter.

All time favorite! Before I can remember I was coming here. Now I bring mine. Nothing bad on a classic American menu. (Summer only)

This has been one of my favorite places since I was a kid. No summer is complete without stopping in.

Barrel House Restaurant & Tavern - Mind blowing rolls and cinnamon butter

Not worth it. Waited 2 hours for terrible food. Save yourself and go elsewhere as they are…read moreunderstaffed and poorly managed.

This morning at 9:00 am, I was first of a party of 20 to enter the Barrel House. There were already…read more6-8 tables full of people including a table of about 10. I wasn't in charge of the group and didn't know if the leader had warned of our arrival. The waitress said "No" she didn't know 20 people were showing up. She was a little flustered for about 30 seconds, but quickly regrouped. There was plenty of seating in the bar side of the restaurant. A few others arrived and we distributed the 20 rolls of tableware and 20 menus she brought to us. As more arrived, she brought a tray of 20 coffee cups and several bowls of little cream cups. We passed those around and soon she produced two pots of coffee which she quickly poured into our cups. We offered to pour the coffee for her, but she wouldn't let us. Then she brought 20 water glasses and a couple of pitchers of water. More folks not in our party came in and she would magically seat them and get their coffee. She efficiently took our 20 orders and within about 15 or 20 minutes, started bring out platefuls of food! I had an omelet, hash browns and toast and my order was perfect, hot and tasted excellent. When we were all done, she quickly produced 20 checks! This woman was spectacular! We were in no hurry since it was cold and raining outside and we were staying at High Pines RV Park. We told her we had all the time in the world. We had planned to cook our own breakfast, but the weather was just nasty. In slightly over 90 minutes, our bellies were happily full and our checks were all paid (and I believe most, if not all of us left 50-100% tips). I cannot recommend this place highly enough. I don't know how many were cooking in the back, but they(?) we're amazing as well. And as far as I know everyone in the restaurant was quickly served and fed. There was one other waitress on the cafe side. If you're ever northeast of Kane on Route 219/Route 6, please stop in and give this place your business. You won't be sorry!

It was nice I could fit my rig behind the restaurant in the town building. Sometimes tough for…read moretruckers to eat ! Kicked it off with a cup of chili ... very good. Not typical but very meaty n some bit to it ! Then I had to try an Elk burger never ate elk before so why not. Bison is awesome so let's try elk. It was excellent. But I still prefer Bison over it. But better than regular burger. Great French fries too. Neat place , waitress was excellent very friendly and on the ball. Definitely recommend!

Stopped in for dinner on Thursday night. Special for the night was a Philly Cheesesteak so I…read moredecided to get that along with a cup of Ham & Bean Soup. Food came out quickly. Soup was decent but nothing special and certainly not worth $4 a cup. Cheesesteak was so dry and flavorless I Amish couldn't finish it. It had almost zero cheese while the peppers and onions tasted almost burnt. The French fries were fresh cut but could have used another minute in the fryer and then some salt added. Food was not impressive and I would give one star. However, the service was great. Only one waitress working plus also tending bar yet she kept everyone's drinks full and delivered orders quickly, and for that I'll bump to two stars. The restaurant is small but clean. They have a dining room for families but also a bar for individual seating.
