Would definitely select Spring House Tavern again!!! We booked my Mom's birthday party here and the planning & service was so easy and the event itself was wonderful! We brought a group of 35 people and the Spring House Tavern Team made everything so easy for me to enjoy the day. The planning took just a few emails and our menu included 4 meal options that guests could choose at the event - and they even accommodated two children's meals and gluten free options. We got access to the room early for decorating and did not feel rushed out the door. Our waitstaff were great and made my Mom feel like the star of the day. read more

Jillian was our server and when I sat she was a GOD send she helped us make sure that the room was set beautifully and even figured out a tricky display situation!!! Whatever they pay her is not enough!!! Bridget was also on point!!! I would recommend this venue to anyone looking to host or even just dinner drinks or happy hour!!! Thanks again to Jillian and Bridget for making this event memorable and seamless!!!! read more

Met a ex coworker for late lunch on weekday. It was crowded and later crowded with the elderly population. Many having cocktails. We sat at bar, our bartender and server was very professional and accommodating. We ordered espresso martini drinks the best in the burbs, mussels, soft brie with bread and crackers, wings and a sandwich. The food was amazing and best wings in the burbs perfectly flavored and cooked. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars. Few of the mussels tasted odd. Overall, great place would dine again. ​​ read more

Spring House Tavern is yet another in a series of eateries I have recently encountered that elicits a rather frustrating bundle of mixed emotions... It also provides a graphic illustration of why any self-respecting food writer should dine at least twice at a given restaurant before penning a review. For our party of five, this was a return visit to the Tavern. Our first experience had been quite satisfying; regrettably, the second proved to be somewhat less so. But let's begin on an upbeat note... To put the matter as succinctly as possible: We like the place. It has a nice feel about it; definitely a cut above establishments of similar ilk. The various dining areas and bustling bar are exceedingly comfortable, the service is attentive and personable, and the classic American cuisine during our first visit was quite good. With our second visit, however, food became something of an issue. Starters like Snapper Soup and Crispy Shrimp received high marks. On the other hand, Caesar Salad was generic at best. Moving on to the entrées, those that ordered some variation of beef seemed to fare the best. The Crab Cake, on the other hand, was pronounced okay but hardly memorable. The real culprit, however, which was ordered by several members of our party - this writer included - was the Salmon Bruschetta, a baked salmon filet topped with a mixture of tomatoes, garlic, basil, olive oil, and balsamic vinegar. Sounds great, doesn't it...? And it looked even better. Just one little problem... It was completely tasteless. The salmon itself was slightly overcooked, which undoubtedly was a contributory factor. That being said, however, given the presence of all the nifty above-mentioned accoutrements, you would assume that they would be capable of awakening slumbering palates. Not a chance. This is one fish that was dead in the water. Anything even approximating flavor was purely coincidental. My choice of side dishes also proved to be somewhat problematic. For while the Mashed Potatoes were quite good, the Brussels Sprouts with Bacon were so undercooked as to be inedible. Conversely, the Peanut Butter Explosion, a luscious amalgam of peanut butter and chocolate, was simply outrageous... and oh-so-very-delicious. French pastry chef and chocolatier Jacques Torres obviously nailed it: "Life is short, eat dessert first." read more

My husband recently had a surprise birthday party for me. We are regular customers at Springhouse Tavern so this choice was very simple. Working with Karleigh and her team was seamless, communication was clear and concise. There's a specific event portal for event planning. There were several menu packages and drink options that would please anyone. The appetizer choices were many and all of them were delicious! The Gwynedd room was very accommodating and there was plenty of room for 45 people. The table settings were very pretty, a pretty table for our cake and gifts. Our servers Rylee and Chris were professional and so friendly . They did a superb job. All dinner choices were delicious and people are still raving about the food" everything was perfect" We never waited for anything, meals and drinks were delivered in a timely manner. We cannot say enough about the entire process, from planning to the end. This was a beautiful event and we could not be happier. Thankyou Springhouse! Excellent job. read more

Food was amazing! So flavorful and well presented. I like so many things on the menu. Everything is delicious, presented well and top quality. Every server and manager has been great: personable, attentive, capable. We hosted a large dinner party in a private room and all of our guests enjoyed it. The food quality and excellent service were the same, and their package offerings were excellent. Planning was easy with management. read more

A quaint historic building is the setting here! Lots of period details have the space a nice vibe. We went for lunch so it wasn't too crow The staff were awesome! They accommodated our request for a round table for 7 people as well as some food requests. It wasn't too loud so it was easy to talk to each other. read more

The service and food was excellent. We enjoyed the happy hour on the deck. Our server, Sophia was excellent.

Prices went through the roof quality went down. For the money they charge I'll go to the William Penn Inn.

We had our company Christmas party of about 33 people here last weekend. The food, service and private room were great. It was nicely decorated and so pretty inside. The staff was so accommodating from start to finish. Thanks again to Karleigh, Jill and the whole staff who hussled the whole time . You were never without a drink or food. We will definity be back! Have a great Holiday! Denise read more

Delicious food, excellent service (thank you, Leo!), and great value. Coordination was straightforward through Carly. Spring House Tavern accommodated our group for a retirement dinner in their spacious Gwynedd room. The crispy shrimp, Swedish meatballs, and Caprese kebabs were hit! They offered five scrumptious dinner options. We were also able to bring our own cake, which they kindly served alongside a scoop of vanilla ice cream with chocolate syrup. They provided to go boxes for leftover cake slices. We're already looking forward to our next visit and wouldn't hesitate to return for another special occasion. read more

Good food, service and ambiance. Love eating at the bar. Plenty of banters with the other patrons.

Karleigh and her team went above and beyond to make our event special. The staff was friendly and very attentive to our needs. The food was delicious and the service impeccable. If you are looking to host a private event, I highly recommend Spring House Tavern. Top notch! Thank you, Karleigh! read more

For the fourth year in a row we had our Car Club dinner for 35 people in a private room at the Springhouse Tavern. The room, the service and especially the food were outstanding. I highly recommend it! read more

I was here for a party in a private room so I can't attest to regular sit down service, however, the food we had was AMAZING! Two huge crab cakes were my choice from the menu and they were phenomenal. I was lucky enough to have leftovers :) full of delicous crab!!! I ordered extra lemons to really set it off. I would come back here just for them. read more

We had a baby shower at the Spring House Tavern this past weekend. Room was set up beautifully, even watch the staff polish the silverware before our guests arrived! Staff was extremely helpful and pleasant to work with. They were extremely accommodating and on point throughout their service. Food was excellent. Everyone left well-fed and extremely happy with their experience at the Spring House. I am looking for reason to have another party there! Excellent, 5+ stars! read more

11/13/22 We had looked at this venue initially for a bridal shower for my daughter- then the "C" word happened. Altogether now- "Covid" . . . So of course our event had to be cancelled. We really liked the banquet manager and the location when we initially visited the location. We chose to rebook and try again for our baby shower. The room was snug but ample enough for our guest list of nearly 50. I was very pleased with the food quality and selections. The service was good as well. Our meal was the choice of spinach tortellini, filet mignon (5oz), crab cake, or roasted half chicken. With the meal mashed potatoes, broccoli, salad and roll and butter were served. I have to say that my crab cake was delicious and it was pure crab through and through- plus no old bay seasoning (not a fan of old bay so that was a big plus for me) even the broccoli was steamed to perfection and the mashed redskin potato's were savory and tasty. Everyone loved the food. Along with that soft drinks were all included, plus coffee and Icecream with choc syrup. I understand this location hosts funeral luncheon gatherings as well. It's not easy to find a restaurant to host a banquet. Even w 50 we didn't have to pre- order. That was impressive to me- all of our guests ordered off the menu. I wish I lived closer because this venue reminds me of 7 Stars from the same era. I would certainly dine here if I lived near the area and wasn't 70 miles away. The building itself is historical and interesting. Cozy and comfortable. We decorated the room to our liking and our event was 3 hours long with a hard stop at 3:30 because another gathering was hosted following ours. To the staff, kitchen, line cooks, banquet servers, management of The Springhouse Tavern I thank you for a simply beautiful high quality experience. read more

Had Sunday brunch. I love the Snapper Soup here. Crab Cake Sandwich was good as was the lump crab flatbread. Mimosas were sour, like they were made with grapefruit juice. We had one sip and returned them. Unfortunately, management refused a refund or reduction, though we ordered an alternate. read more

We had a baby shower at Spring House Tavern, from start to finish it was easy and perfect in every way. Karleigh was a pleasure to work with.

Two years ago we had the most positive experience hosting a wedding rehearsal dinner at The SpringHouse Tavern. So, when we needed a venue for a 70th wedding anniversary celebration, our first choice was to go back to The SpringHouse Tavern. And, once again, we were beyond pleased with the entire experience. Owner and Banquet Manager Karleigh Burns made the planning so easy! Our event was held in the rustic Hunt Room a private space featuring beautiful stained wood and stone accents. Guests chose from 5 delicious menu items and the food was just amazing! Our server Emma was so attentive throughout the entire night. She even patiently photographed our entire group so we could have a picture perfect memory of our great family time! There was nothing we didn't love about our event from the planning stage to the party! We highly recommend The SpringHouse Tavern for anyone who needs a special occasion venue space. read more

Our family has going here for years. The service, ambiance and food are second to none. Kaleigh family and staff are always accommodating and friendly. Best restaurant in Spring House. read more

1st visit here, we had an excellent experience! Our server, Emma, was perfect throughout the meal. The ambiance here is actually whatever you want it to be. We chose the dining room which was great for date night conversation, reasonable noise level. Other areas (i.e. the bar, outside patio, Hunt Room appeared to be more active). We were very happy with our food selections: Baked Onion soup (great version), shrimp cocktail (firm,plump shrimp), Crab Saute (a signature here and the hit of the night) and the Prime Rib (nice size, tender and tasty). We will return and can easily recommend! In our opinion, much better than the current Yelp rating would indicate! read more

Had an awards banquet for a veteran group and manager and staff very accommodating. Food and atmosphere were excellent. Had many compliments on couples attending. The waitress was excellent and never had to ask she was right on top of things we will definitely recommend and use again in the future. Thanks again for making it a special evening read more

I struggled with the rating as I wanted to give a local place a higher score but two glaring negatives for us were the high prices and the lack of flavoring in our dinners. Service was only ok. Our wings were solid. The spicy shrimp were good. Our dinners were flat and bland. Deserts were a little better but expensive. Overall, prices are way too high for the average level of service and average quality of food. Ambiance is nothing special either. read more

We held our 55th nursing school class reunion in the charming Hunt Room. It easily held our 24 attendees with plenty of room to circulate and chat. The menu had 4 entree choices and all were delicious. The service was superb and our waitress Emma was professional and courteous. Karleigh and James who coordinated this reunion were easy to work with and very helpful. I would definitely recommend this establishment for any meeting or party. read more

My wife & I went for lunch at the Springhouse Tavern on August 20, 2025. We went just to have the lobster rolls. The service was very good. The lobster rolls were a disappointment. The lobster meat had no large chunks and was more like a ground up texture. Also my wife & I had shells in our rolls. read more

I don't usually write reviews, but I had to make one for Spring House. We had my daughter's baby sprinkle here on 6/28/25. Everything was perfect..EVERYTHING!!The staff were attentive, the food was great, the room was perfect, but our server Leo was phenomenal!! He never made us feel as if we had to go looking for him, he kept everything moving, drinks were never empty.. and he asked each guest if they needed anything. Just incredible, I will definitely be back!!!! read more

We hosted a very special celebration for our parents' 85th & 90th birthdays and their 61st wedding anniversary. We had 30 people, and everything went perfectly. The whole affair was lovely.

We highly recommend the Spring House Tavern! read more

I made a mistake and booked for 7 when it was just my wife and I. The staff immediately fixed the problem and we had a great dinner. We have a couples group we dine with and I will be taking them to dinner here soon. Caylie our server, Doug the host & the general manager all came by to make sure we were good. They treated us amazingly well. I had the crab cake, my wife had snapper soup and mussels and a chocolate lava desert. The food was excellent, the service amazing and I can recommend Spring House highly enough. Thank you read more

Spring House Tavern - Bars Near Me - Ambler, Pennsylvania

Since I am a self-proclaimed "wings" expert and I dropped PJ Whelihan's to the bottom of the wings list just 2 or so weeks ago, I MUST upgrade Spring House Tavern chicken wings to 5 STARS. Crispy on the outside and still juicy under the crunchy first bite. And the blue cheese dressing is very very good, not the weak ass shit that some places just throw on a plate. And upgrade to 4 stars for the beer selection. The whole experience has gotten much better since my first review in 2015. Service at the bar is still very good! read more

My organization had a lunch meeting at the Spring House Tavern. They worked closely with us to facilitate the meeting and set up the room to accomodate our needs. The server was excellent and the food choices included in the Spring House package (crab cake sandwich, avocado toast, chicken cesear salad, french dip) were very good. read more

Good place to go for lunch dinner or just drinks. Staff are very helpful and and friendly.

In response: Nothing personal, as I worked in the business for over ten years. How you treat your customers, especially those who have been going there for DECADES and have spent THOUSANDS on your establishment speaks volumes and yes, the recent renovations are horrible. Now your once beloved restaurant lacks 'tavern feel' and integrity. Nothing but a toxic gossip hole. You also fail to keep promises as an owner, albeit an absent one, and to harass customers over a glass of wine by calling their private home at night when it was quickly settled up is truly pathetic! read more

We had birthday dinner. Food was excellent, service Ann Marie, the best! We had seafood, prime rib, lamb chops, oysters! Recommend all of it. read more
