Great food and brews. Service is exemplary. They have made the best of the parking situation.

Love going here after work before the crowd comes in, sit at the bar and have great service. The old aesthetics and lighting give it an old time saloon feel. Some of the Portuguese style dishes are hit or miss but overall the food is amazing, drinks have plenty of 'flavor' if you like them stiff. Live music on Mondays. read more

We stopped at the Sumneytown Hotel while we were on the road. It has a comfortable atmosphere, the servers are friendly, and the food is good. We will definitely stop there again when we are in that area. read more

Excellent service and very high food quality. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and will return. A distinguishing feature is that the seafood was cooked perfectly. Drinks were delicious and the ambiance is warm and inviting. read more

Our first time there. We were sat on the bar side, even though we had a reservation. The lighting was very poor, had to turn our phone lights on to read the menu. The wurst appetizer that was supposed to be char grilled came out burnt on the edges and rare throughout. It actually dripped blood when you cut into it. Took half a bite that was unchewable and almost tossed. The main dishes were plain and nothing memorable about them. The service was just ok, and certainly not attentive. Not planning on going back. read more

For an establishment that seemingly prides itself on the food, serving frozen fish and chips for $17.99 is a travesty. French fries tasted like the cooking oil needed a change. Very disappointing. read more

One of my fav restaurants in the area. The drinks are fantastic- I love their dirty gin martini- and the food is great too. I've had a few different items and everything has been good. They shine on the apps imo. They also switch up the menus often which is kinda fun. And the staff- top notch!! Never had a bad experience here. read more

Owned by a couple of local families, a nice place to grab a cold one or enjoy a meal with friends or family. Plenty of delicious options on the menu but I stopped looking when I saw poutine! I enjoyed it with one of their signature cocktails, a lavendar lemon drop. A great place to check out! read more

We have not been there since new management over the last couple of years. We have family businesses in the area as well, and we like to support local. So glad we went - dinner was fantastic. Between the 6 of us we sampled so much .... Pasta / Chicken / Pork / Seafood .... Everything was very good. Great portions - fresh garden salads come with every entree, as did delicious bread board. Lovely old historic building. We chose to eat in the dining room, but they also have bar seating and a bar dining room - and even seating on the big wrap around porch! Attentive and friendly service. Parking is tricky because of the way the property is situated/ but don't let that stop you from checking out this quaint restaurant! read more

Everything on the menu is very tasty and quite enjoyable. We've only had lunch and it was very satisfying.

We finally got back for dinner and I was not disappointed. The service is fantastic, we sat at the bar and the bartender new every nook and cranny of the menu. We tried different types of meals as a result. We got a chance to split the scotch egg, which is like nothing I ever tasted before. You're just going to there yourself and try it! We then got then Wild boar ragu and mushroom ravioli. Both meals were perfect for a cold fall night. We'll be back! read more

This is by far the most amazing restaurant in the area. You will not find another restaurant close to this one. Staff is amazing. The chef on the other hand is SUPERB!!!!! I wish I could give it 10 stars. read more

I visited the Sumneytown Hotel for the first time on Friday of Labor Day weekend and was delighted with the dining experience. The bar looked inviting, but it was too loud for our group. My partner and I were meeting friends who we hadn't seen in ages, we wanted somewhere quiet to talk. The hostess directed us to a dining room table by the fireplace. It was the perfect location for our group of four! The servers were personable, attentive, and knew the menu! They could address our inquiries about the food and made great recommendations! We enjoyed the complimentary olive amuse-gueule. Great variety of well-prepared delicious foods!! One diner appreciated the NA beer. Everyone thought the food was awesome. I'd suggest less bread with the salmon BLT:) However, the salmon was cooked to perfection! Check it out!! read more

First time here since it reopened and it was okay, not great. The appetizer of the crab dip was very good. I got the salmon special and it slightly over cooked and quite small. My son had the fish be chips and it was overly fried, oily and very oil heavy tasting. The waitress was fabulous and the ambiance was good. I always loved the Sumneytown hotel and will be back to see if my next time is better than tonight, who knows maybe it was a bit of an off night. read more

I'm in town from Los Angeles visiting my best friend who just moved here to Perkiomenville and mentioned that there was a fantastic restaurant that he and his wife enjoy and offered to take me out here tonight before returning home tomorrow. I must say that this is one of the best restaurant experiences I've had in a long time. The service from Michelle was superb, friendly, and her recommendations were on point. I had the scotch egg, poutine, and short rib stroganoff with a side salad dressed with a bacon honey dressing (you must try this) and their fig cider whiskey smash to drink. I couldn't be happier and more full and sated than I am at this moment. The prices are very reasonable for the quality of food, presentation, and service. This restaurant would do well in any major city, but to find something this special in a small community such as this is an absolute godsend. I hope to eat here for years to come whenever I visit my friend in town. 5 stars with zero regrets. read more

Excellent lunch, service, and great quality of food. This is a hidden gem in a quiet rural setting. Unique from scratch menu items that is not over the top. Keep up the great work! read more

We heard that the Sumneytown Hotel had reopened with new owners so we decided to give it a try for a Saturday lunch. What a pleasant surprise. We sat at the bar and Jessica, one of the owners, served us. The drinks were great and she is so pleasant and attentive. We loved our lunch , the Yintzer and a grain bowl were delicious. The following Saturday, we decided to come back for dinner. We had a cute corner table in the bar and Michelle waited on us. She was friendly and didn't rush us at all. We tried the octopus and the Caprese salad to start, followed by Portuguese steak and Spring Pea ravioli. We topped it off with Shoefly pie and carrot cake . Specialty martinis finished our evening. It was just wonderful. read more

Food, bartenders, and the building were awesome. Had the strip steak and man it was seasoned up well, didn't even need salt or pepper on it. Had a great dry rub on it and melted in your mouth read more

Food is amazing, and it isn't your average "pub" menu! Lots of unique dishes to try and I've tried most of them and always pleased! Service is great with friendly staff and chef! The bar area is one of a kind, beautifully restored with great detail! Check out this little hidden gem in Sumneytown! read more

My husband and I went with two friends here for lunch for our first visit. Everything was excellent. We had the pork belly burnt ends, fish and chips, eggplant parmesan sandwich, smashed chicken sandwich, chicken picatta, shoofly pie. Every dish was delish, freshly prepared. Our server was wonderful. Knowledgeable, friendly and efficient. We will DEFINITELY return to try more menu items. read more

To begin---parking is very limited. Service was somewhat chaotic. I ordered an appetizer (Scotch Egg) and it arrived with no utensils on the table. It took at least 5 minutes to correct that. The Scotch egg was very good, as was the dipping sauce, but they used a pickled egg---I'm not sure why. The egg itself was done perfectly. Our entrees took 1 hour and 15 minutes to arrive! I ordered the stroganoff with shredded short rib. It was tasty but so rich I could not finish it. My wife had fish and chips, the fish was terribly over cooked. We both had small side salads that were primarily spinach with two yellow grape tomatoes. The Blue Cheese dressing was very tasty. By the time we would have ordered desert the thought of another wait was not attractive at all. I understand they are short staffed---the dishwasher had not shown up, but dealing with that is part of the job of running a restaurant. Noise level is extreme, making conversation very difficult. There were also two charges on my bill that I have no idea what they were for but I decided the total of the two, $5 , did not justify asking. I'm afraid there was little to cause us to return. read more

The new owners took the Sumneytown Hotel a step upscale, which is either good or bad, depending on what you are looking for. Some liked the hole in the wall country corner tavern feel better. But alas, the food is very good, the the drinks are wonderful, and the staff is attentive and friendly. Prices have definitely been bumped up to match their new demeanor. read more

We were not disappointed! We had an array of different food options from the menu. From pub fare to entrees. Honestly one of the best hamburgers I've eaten. My wife thoroughly enjoy her Salomon dish. The service was on point as well. We will be visiting this establishment more often. read more

Short review Great food, Great prices, Great service. This place is a land mark we ate dinner in the dining room. They have a bar side also. The service was awesome from the start with drinks served promptly. The prices are what you would normal expect when going out. Dinners were around 15 - 20 . they include pick three soup, salad, vegetable of the day, fries, or baked potato. This place opened in 1736 there's history here. I drove by here so many times wanting to eat here. Well I did tonight and i was impressed. Doesn't seen like there to busy during the week. Please give this historic restaurant a shot. *****All the other reviews are for the bar side which is totally separate and has a different menu and feel.***** read more

This is our new favorite family restaurant! The service is fast and very friendly-they made us feel very welcome, my son kept saying we need to eat here more often! My children shared a pizza, which is all homemade and fresh, my husband got the chicken Parmesan sandwich which he said was one of the best he's had in a long time. I had the turkey Panini which also was amazing. For dessert we shared a pineapple pie and a chocolate cake with almond icing and ice cream, all very tasty. You should definitely try this place out! read more

The restaurant is loud. the evening we had dinner thank goodness the restaurant was not busy, or it would have been tough to hear ourselves. The food was good, portions were not large but average. You do get a salad with entrees. The homemade dressings are delicious. Drink prices are not on the menu for some reason, so we only got one drink. Interesting cocktails. Service was good. Parking is minimal. read more

Delicious food and absolutely wonderful staff. What a great evening! Will definitely go again.

Good homemade food at good prices! Crabcakes are all crab...burgers are good and cooked the way you like them!

why have i forgotten about this place for so long. ok. lemme get this straight for yall. this place is AMAZING. there is both a bar side and a more formal dining room side to this place. I prefer the bar side, but thats just me. this is a family owned and operated business and you can immediately tel. jack, sybelle, and johnny are pleasant and honest people. the food is amazing, never had a single thing from here be bad. my favorites have to include old bay wings, crab cakes, and their homemade soups [french onion, pizza, and many other amazing ones] now, this is a bar, and i must say, its fully stocked with almost anything you can imagine from beer to wines to shots of god knows what. oh and p.s. this is awesome. look at the marble doorstep into the bar. its all worn down and warped from people stepping in and out over the years. if THAT many people have gone in and out here you MUST know its amazing. read more

Great food in a casual atmosphere. Defiantly a bar but not a dive just a good local place with nice people and raesonable food.

We had to find a place on the way home at 7 O'clock on a Friday. I'd heard this was a good place to hang out. Not a bad choice. The menu was no surprise, but the dining room was as empty as the bar was packed. My wife and I enjoyed very well prepared food from comparatively inexpensive ingredients -- it is no gourmet destination. But the pasta was perfectly done, the accommodations to my diet honored with no loss of flavor and the service was small-town-friendly, if a tad over-familiar. Not a wine list place, they served a very generous pour of a nice house wine for half the price we pay in the city. We will go there again. Four stars for a great local hang out. You just can't give five stars to a place that has canned olives and artichokes in the recipe no matter how well it turns out. read more

You WILL NOT find a better small town bar then this. Everything is homemade and I mean everything, down to the dinner rolls. Service is always warm and friendly, it's the small town bar you see on television. It's not a fufu place as far as decor goes, the bar is original to the building and it's very cool. Two people can eat their fill of homemade deliciousness and spend under $20.00. Extensive beer menu and eats of all kinds. If you want hometown charm, amazing good at seriously reasonable prices then you must stop here. Everyone here is always nice, patrons, owners and servers alike. read more

Waitstaff is friendly and attentive; food is ALWAYS delicious and unique; decent cocktail and beer list. LOVE THIS PLACE!

Enjoy anything from wings, sandwiches, steamed edamame to wonderful weekly and weekend specials. Generous pours of wine, whiskey, and beer for a good price. Wonderful wait staff, friendly and attentive, ask for (Michelle, Rysa or Melissa) read more

Nice staff. Average dinerish cuisine. Homestyle atmosphere but in need of new carpets at least. Expensive for what you get.

Not wanting to cook last night, we decided to head down to our favorite area bar-restaurant, just five minutes from home. This is our go-to place whether we crave an excellent cheesesteak sandwich and fries with a couple of draughts or a complete meal. For our cheesesteaks we'll sit at a table in the old timey bar area. We miss the brass foot rest and wastewater trough running along the bottom of the bar that were removed several years ago, yet the place still maintains much of it's character with the original bar and back mirrors. It's the ultimate neighborhood hangout with contemporary touches in the menu offerings. Most important, the service is consistently friendly and accommodating. It's not uncommon for one of the family owners to stop by your table to have a chat. Desiring a meal last night we opted to sit in the restaurant area. The décor here is a dated yet clean and adequate for it's purpose. Though they were quite busy, we were promptly seated by our server. During our stay we found her to be pleasant and efficient. She was working the whole room yet our food choices came to us in a reasonable amount of time, The menu consists of their comprehensive standard fare with an insert describing four or five special items. One of us ordered the shrimp platter from the menu that consisted of at least a dozen of lightly breaded medium sized shrimp that were flavorful and had the texture to suggest that they were freshly prepared and not out of a box. They were accompanied by an abundance of perfect French fries and a side of coleslaw. Our other choice was Black and Blue shrimp salad from the special menu. It consisted of a plentiful amount of mixed greens, vegetables, and crumbled blue cheese, topped with many beautifully grilled shrimp. Dressing was on the side. The salad could not have been better...delicious! read more

On the way back from Souderton we wanted to find a restaurant between Souderton and home in Boyertown. I knew of Sumneytown from the yoga community but had never gone to eat at a restaurant. Sumneytown Hotel looked warm and friendly and the menu had enough to choose from. Found a parking spot right away (I hear that's luck!). We walked in to be greeted by a couple who said 'Hi'. And the room was the tavern part filled with patrons that pretty much right away, made a space for us to sit, chatted easily which made us feel welcome. And the connections happened. For me, being from Brooklyn NY, it was a refreshing change from other restaurants in this area where it is kinda 'cold' in terms of warm and friendly people. The bartender, Jameison, couldn't have been nicer. Food was delicious and fresh and home-made. Gonna make this a regular visit even though it's about 1/2 hour way. Totally worth it to feel welcome. read more
