Outside the tavern--cute!
Erika H.

We were in town as tourists and looking for a special place to celebrate a birthday. Our VRBO host recommended the tavern. They told us the wait was 20 min, we waited over 40 minutes. After we were seated, it was fifteen minutes until we saw our waiter. It was an hour before we got our food! The tavern is cute and comfortable. The food was hit or miss. The burger wasn't seasoned and wasn't cooked as asked. The portions were HUGE, but the food was just so-so. The angry bird wrap had no sauce or seasoning to speak of. The nachos and fries were large portions for a "small appetizer" but were three stars at best. The nachos had so many toppings, there weren't any chips! Just a pile of chili on a plate. The final thing our party ordered was steak Alfredo pasta--they are known for their steak, and the steak was unseasoned. We would not go back. 2.5 stars

Bit of wait since moms day weekend. Bigger inside than it looks and super packed. Very homey and rustic interior. The food of course mostly standard American. Food took way too long but service was super friendly made up for it. Enjoyed our meals, very reasonable prices - solid small town restaurant.

Food and service: 10/10 I was so glad we went to Spring House Tavern for dinner while we were visiting Bryce Resort. It was about a 30 minute drive, but so worth it! We went on a Sunday night and not many patrons dining at that time. Our server was amazing. Very friendly and attentive. All of the food we ordered came out quickly and we enjoyed everything we ordered. Crab dip was filled with so much crab. Mozzarella sticks were made in house and not from frozen. Kids ribs - the meat was so tender. Country-Fried Pork Chop with a side of Homemade Mac & Cheese was yummy! Nashville-Fried Chicken was juicy and amazing. There is no doubt we will be back if we are ever in the area. My daughter wanted to come back the next day, but they weren't open.

Food was excellent. Burger cooked perfectly. Shrimp pasta was loaded with shrimp. Good selection of beer.

Charcoal of a patty pulled apart so I could eat the center atleast.

We really enjoyed starting our dinner with happy hour, which offers a nice selection of drinks and appetizers. The real highlight here, though, is the fresh seafood! The steamed blue crabs were absolutely the star of the meal. They were seasonal male crabs, incredibly fresh, and full of solid meat. The large crabs were quite impressive in size, too! It is hard to find restaurants in Northern Virginia that serve fresh blue crabs this delicious, so this was a real treat. We also ordered the spiced shrimp, which was very fresh and flavorful. The Alaskan king crab legs were pretty good as well, with several clusters included in the order, making it a generous portion. The margaritas were really good, and we ended the meal with the peanut butter pie for dessert. It was absolutely delicious and the perfect way to finish our dinner! Overall, if you are looking for fresh seafood, especially seasonal steamed blue crabs in Northern Virginia, this restaurant is definitely worth checking out. We really enjoyed our meal and would come back for the crabs and that delicious peanut butter pie!

It came with a hot marinara sauce. It was delicious. My mother ordered broiled flounder with baked potatoes and salad. I ordered make my own 3 items which included fried Soft shell crab, fired scallops and crab cake with sides of baked potatoes and onion rings. All dishes came with hush puppies. My sister had fried oysters. They said the broiled flounder had no taste. I liked all my dishes though the crab cake was saltier for me than I normally like. They give you all sorts of sauce and special butter for the baked sweet potatoes. The waitress was really nice and came back and refilled my soda a lot. It's an old restaurant and the ambience is lots of people come here for seafood. Considering it's not close to any sea, it's pretty good. I forgot to take photos to share. When we left around 6:30 the parking lot was full and people were waiting for tables.

I do not say this lightly: this was best fried shrimp I've ever had. Also the best crabcake and…read morefried catfish that have ever graced my palate. The sides were perfection. Just look at the photos- you can see the perfection. Family owned- there were three (maybe four) generations behind the counter and we watched them bread and fry the shrimp and cook everything on demand. Nothing is frozen or pre made. The guys were friendly and fun to chat with; felt like you're at home. This is by far the best soul food seafood restaurant I've ever been to, and besides one other place in Front Royal that offers very different fare it's the best place to get a meal. Please visit this establishment so they stay in business forever. This is the food we all deserve.

It was a great choice, especially since I was in the mood for some soul food! I ordered the catfish platter, which came with two sides (mac n cheese and collard greens), and a couple hush puppies. It was a hefty amount for $20! It's enough to save and eat for another meal. My cousin ordered the shrimp po' boy, which she allowed me to try some. It was also very delicious, but it was a bit on the salty side. Overall, we were very pleased, and I will definitely stop by again when I'm next in the area.

Reuben's are my typical go to sandwich places, and I honestly have to say this was one of the best ones I've ever had in my lifetime. The meat was so tender it just melted as you ate it.

It was around 4pm so it was pretty empty. We sat at a booth and ordered drinks. Our server was friendly. I will say there was no music playing and we were sitting near the kitchen. We could hear basically everything going on and the other couple in the rooms conversation, which was a bit odd. We ordered the fried chicken based on reviews and it was delicious. I would highly recommend getting the fried chicken. The green beans were also really good. I can't really speak on anything else. The place is pretty large, before we left we took a walk around and found a pretty cool bar in the back and some patio seating. All in all I would compare this to a typical country roadside diner. Good homestyle cooking at good prices.

It was a winner all the way. The restaurant is a repurposed building that was once a blue jeans factory, and perhaps after that a radio station. We learned this from a local couple at a table next to us. As might be expected from a former factory, the restaurant is spacious and has a lot of character with old wooden floors and high ceilings. It's very casual. You order your beverages and food at the bar and grab a table to your liking. We chose one in the middle of room to give us a little space from the live band. Incidentally, it seems they have a live group every night of the week! I ordered a honey wheated beer for my wife and a pale ale for myself. Both were delicious. I ordered the Reuben and a cheeseburger for my wife. The Reuben wasn't up to say, a NY City deli standard, but it was pretty darn good and I would order it again. It came on marbled rye bread with a generous amount of meat. My wife loved her burger, and could only finish half of it. She got the sweet potato fries and I got regular fries. We both got a mountain of potatoes-- a challenge to finish in one sitting! The brewhouse is a gem--a delightful find in the quaint town sometimes referred to as the "other Woodstock." 4 and a half stars!
