The food is excellent and even tho it was very busy, there is enough staff to serve you well

Delicious!!! We absolutely loved everything we ordered! It was a bit noisy - definitely a popular stop for locals. CALL TO MAKE A RESERVATION! We called around 5 and got a reservation for 7:45. Our waitress wasn't very attentive..we were out of drinks the entire meal, which was a shame. I got the shrimp pasta which was spicy, so I needed water. That is why I gave this place only 4 stars instead of 5. We would go back if we are ever in the area again! read more

The food was excellent as always and the service was impeccable. I'm an old chef who used to stop there when it was the Roadhouse for a burger and a beer There is no comparison to the amazing place that it has become! Cheers read more

This was a yelp find that ended up being a total diamond of a find. The drinks were well made and not overdone. The Brussel sprout appetizer is the best I have ever had. You cannot go wrong with anything on the menu, but the burgers are just amazing. Finally, dessert is just.... Wow. True creme brulee, made the way it was meant to be and in such a perfect abundant portion. We could not be more thrilled with our experience. The waitress we had, Heather, was just a font of information, she gave fantastic recommendations and made sure our first experience was just above and beyond. We will be back. read more

WORST FOOD EXPERIENCE! When we went the restaurant was fairly empty. We sat at the bar while we waited for our party to arrive. The beer selection was good. When everybody arrived, we sat at the table. We ordered oysters platter and Burrata as appetizers. It was okiesh. I was expecting the bread to be great but it tasted like stale bread. Next I noticed there is only only vegetarian option for Entree so I order that vegetarian pasta and OMG! It was like I was eating just plain tomato paste. So sour and no flavors at all besides the overwhelming tomato paste taste. If you are vegetarian, I would recommend to STAY AWAY from this place! read more

Top notch restaurant. Great food, ambiance and excellent service. ........................ compliments to the chef

We came here on a Thursday night for rehearsal dinner. I was surprised that they had such a big room on the second floor to accommodate that many people as the first floor was tight on space. I ordered the steak salad and the chicken sandwich with fries. The salad was amazing! The steak was delicious and they give you big portions. The chicken sandwich was good but nothing extraordinary. You must get dessert though. The creme brûlée and the granola yogurt were sooo delicious!! Really enjoyed them more than my meal. Parking - there is plenty of parking in the lot in back so no stress there. read more

While visiting my friends, they recommended First Post as one of their favorite places to eat out. I'm a bit jealous that I'm so far but find comfort in the fact that it won't be the last time as I'll likely push for us to eat here on future visits to York!! Our server, Laurie, was one of the kindest, most attentive servers I've had in a while. I cannot commend her enough, anyone she spoke with could see she's a genuine people person, the management hopefully know how wonderful it is to have her! We ordered clams for an appetizer, and cups of French onion soup, which were delicious. For my entrée I chose to go for the chopped greek salad and let me tell you it's the best salad I've ordered, simple as that! To me, what really stuck out was the warm halloumi cheese, and the crispy filo because it captured the drizzle of honey. I enjoyed my salad to the fullest and also tried a bit of the cream cheese croutons from my friend's chicken caesar salad which I've never seen done before, a game changer in my book! Looking forward to visiting again soon, and I recommend grabbing a chocolate mint on your way out. Hadn't seen them before and they were phenomenal. read more

Happy hour goes to 5:30 pm - but you have to sit at the bar, FYI. Decent craft beer selection on draft. Honey lavender cider sounds odd, but is crisp and delicious with good flavor. It does not taste like chewing flowers, just yummy cider beer. Loved the winter warmer brown ale by Lancaster brewing. Lots of yummy caramel flavor in that one. Blackened scallop pasta came with a Caesar salad and it was okay. Bread was soft , pillowy and warm - worth a cheat day. Scallops were excellent - cooked to perfection, flavorful, and served atop a very creamy sauce with a homemade pasta. Fish and chips were a generous portion, nice and crispy fish with crispy and perfectly seasoned fries. Service was expedient enough to be good but not rushed. Server was very knowledgeable about the menu and beverage options. read more

Great food. Changing menu. Great staff. Not sure how this place is so good and the other two places the owners have stinks.

Food was top quality and reasonably priced. Service was prompt and server most informative about meals. Atmosphere was congenial.

Food was presented in proper fashion very tasty. Something to pick from sandwich, burgers to crab cakes. Service was spot on . Beautiful decor read more

First things first - food and drinks were delicious. I wish I could remember the names of the two cocktails we got, but they were amazing! When we finished those, we switched and got two different glasses of wine which were also tasty. For our appetizer we got the seared tuna, and have no complaints - perfectly cooked tuna with delicious sauces! For our entrees, we got Fish and Chips and the Crab & Corn Fettuccini. The fish and chips meal was slightly above average but nothing to write home about. However, the Crab and Corn Fettuccini was OUT OF THIS WORLD!!! The corn was so fresh and sweet, and the amount of jumbo lump crab in the pasta was honestly insane. To top it off, it had the perfect amount of sauce - just enough to coat the pasta but not too heavy or overbearing. I could eat that meal over and over! The atmosphere/decor was great and added to the experience. Parking lot is huge which I appreciate. The reason I knocked off a star is for the service. Our waiter was attentive but a little rude/condescending at times which just made the night a bit less special. We tried to ask about food recommendations between 2 choices, we were flatly told he didn't like either. Tried to ask for a house wine and/or wine recommendations to go with our meal, we were told he doesn't drink wine and couldn't help with suggesting what to get. When we asked for a house white, he scoffed and asked which one as if we were supposed to know what house wines they have. As we were wrapping up our meal, we noticed he gave the table next to us bread after they ordered and had never even offered it to us. Overall, when I am spending $100+ on date night I expect the service to be great, better than the typical restaurant, and it just was not. With that said, I would return because the food/drinks were delicious - I would just hope we got a different server. read more

Amazing food, amazing service !! Love this restaurant. Had friends visiting from the UK they of course ordered the fish and chips and throughly enjoyed it. Said the portions were massive. Four of us sat in a booth and had plenty of elbow room to eat, drink and enjoy. Will definitely patronize again and again. read more

Continually receiving great service and meals here. The menu does change, which keeps us coming back to try new seasonal options. They do get busy, but offer first come first serve seats in their bar with high top tables that seat up to 4! read more

Lexi, our girl! Had a "Gal-Pal", lunch to strengthen our laugh lines. Success! And to enjoy a wonderful atmosphere and great food, doesn't get any better than that. EXPRESSO MARTINI!! And folks, don't be cheap. Tip Ur server! JP read more

Wonderful casual food! Make reservations, or you may not get in! Service is great. Atmosphere is beautiful!

Valentines at the First Post. The food is priced at the higher end. They were very busy but the service was still spot on. The food was delicious and everything was cooked properly. I highly recommend reservations on the weekends and holidays like Valentines Day and Mothers Day. I had the surf and turf and the steak melted in your mouth. My husband had the filet mignon and it was excellent. The only negative was the wall where we were sitting is where they return the dishes and a few times it sounded as if they were coming thru the wall. Over all a good visit read more

Another great recommendation led us to this spot for a big work dinner. We were pretty hungry and took advantage of the oyster specials on this Tuesday. We also ordered some drinks to start- they had a great beer list. Though the service was pretty slow, the food made up for it. I wanted to order a salmon salad, but they didn't have it available so I changed my order to the ahi tuna salad. This was delicious and fresh. The bread rolls were to die for- I couldn't stop eating them! We also ordered some other appetizers, including Brussel sprouts and calamari. Both were tasty and filling. read more

We were in the area and decided to try this restaurant. We were seated right away in the dining room. I waitress was average nothing over impressive. We ordered the crab dip, burger and fish/chips. Everything came out hot and delicious. The fish could have been a bit more seasoned but still came out hot and fresh. read more

Food was excellent. Got to have the lettuce wraps, steak wedge salad, and awesome soups both crab chowder and French onion soup. Staff very friendly and great service. Lots of parking. read more

Food is great depending on what you get. They have good specials and the service is great. The last time I went their computer system went down for the registers so we waited a half hour at our table to get the check. Other than that, the place has yet to disappoint. read more

Best restaurant in York! The interior is well done, reminds you of an old time saloon would look like....actually, what a modernized, 21st century tavern should look like! Place is fantastic, and if I lived near here, the First Post would be my second home. Food was also amazing, so do yourself a favor and stop looking for another restaurant if in the York region and go here...you will not be disappointed. Cheers! read more

The first time the wife and I visit, I ordered beer, and my wife got the first post punch. It came surprisingly quick, cold beer, and a great mixed drink, very sweet, not my style, but she loved it. Then, we had the shrimp tempura starter. It was amazing. I ordered the pasta and crab (night special) Spring salad with vinaigrette was fresh and tangy. The pasta was like a foratini pasta, perfectly cooked, not overcooked, like most places do it. The crab and vegetables mixed nincely, it wasn't over sauced. Wife ordered the meatloaf. Glazed BBQ and wrapped in bacon with a side of mashed potatoes, wonderfully cooked and presented, wife was very happy with it. Shared a creme Brulee for desert, So good it hit the spot twice. The service was fenominal and prompt,im very picky about restaurants. I feel like if you're going to walk into a restaurant and hand them your money, they should care about what they do. I highly recommend this restaurant and will be coming back. read more

This is the first time we have been to the First Post and did not receive excellent service. We had to ask our waitress about the specials, she was quite slow in her service. Handed my wife her can of high noon, with no glass or straw. Totally unacceptable. We were quite disappointed with her service, but the customer right behind us had a wonderful server. The food, however, was top notch. We just hope the next time we visit, we will get a waiter or waitress like we have had in the past. read more

Large portions, friendly service, lovely options on the menu. Was a delicious meal and the atmosphere was fun.

We first checked out First Post for lunch awhile back. Our first time there was amazing! Sam is an awesome server (muscular guy) and I had the Post Burger and my wife had the Chicken Salad. The complimentary rolls were delicious, as were our entries. The ambience was also very refined. Perfect for a casual meal. This place would be perfect for a date night or special occasion, but you'd better have reservations. We did not, but it was lunch and we arrived after 2:00 pm, so no worries in that regard. For the main lunch hour, it's probably advised to call ahead, just in case. For our second visit a month later, luck of the draw gave us a rather odd experience. The server (not Sam) was also a bit odd in his behavior and he annoyed my wife with not listening to her requests and sometimes ignored her altogether it seemed. She had asked for lemons for her water and he made a production of presenting them to us after missing them the first time. We had to ask for water refills because it felt like he was somewhat ignoring the obvious even when we placed empty glasses on the edge of the table as he walked bay. It appeared like he was more interested in pursuing higher tips from other tables than in our basic order of a burger and salad. My wife located a manager when she went to wash up afterwards because she was really annoyed, to put it mildly. The manager personally brought us a complimentary dessert to go and only then did the server come over to apologize to us. As stated previously, it was a very odd experience, unlike anything we've ever experienced in the past or anywhere else for that matter. I had expected better from a place like FP. We had originally considered making FP part of our regular rotation of eateries, but this weird experience made us wait 4 to 5 months before returning. We got Sam again and again had an awesome lunch. BTW, the other guy is still there as of October so hopefully he has improved in his professionalism and behavior or he'll never make it in the restaurant industry. I'm not sure if this is the right career fit for him but wish him the best of luck. Overall, First Post is a nice place for a decent meal. It is also a popular location for family get togethers and showers, and many well-heeled customers eat there. Overall, I recommend it and will occasionally go when in the mood for a 40 minute drive down 83 South. read more

It was 4+ years since I've eaten here. Last time it was very dark and not the least bit crowded and not a very memorable experience. This time we decided to try it again and I'm sure glad we did. The calamari was very lightly breaded and the marinara was great with fresh tomatoes flavor. The Brussels sprouts were very good and a hint of charred goodness. The Apple and cheese topping on it was a good mix with brussels. Both the house salad and Caesar salad was also good. The Caesar salad was perfectly balanced and not drowning in the Caesar dressing. The ranch dressing with house salad was good ranch unlike at certain restaurants where the ranch doesn't taste like ranch. I had the lobster puttanesca and it had huge chunks of lobster and the olives were perfect combo with the pasta to provide the saltiness. The vegetable pasta was a creamy warm delight and the highlight of the meal. read more

Took our family there for an afternoon meal and it was fabulous from beginning to the end!

Our go to place whenever we're in town. The ambiance is such a nice vibe and their customer service was great

Every enjoyable dinner out. Highly recommend the pork chop! Double cut and so tender. Lots of options on the menu sure to please everyone. The pumpkin cheesecake was awesome too but be warned, no Graham cracker crust. Server was awesome and knowledgeable. I called to see if a reservation was needed. After giving my name and cell number, I received a text and calendar event for the reservation. It included the address which made it easy to click to load directions to Waze. They really think of everything to make it an enjoyable experience. read more

One of our local spots--we frequent it and the menu changes just enough to keep you interested, but not get tired of what they're serving up. The Post Caesar is a favorite. Go here... you will likely go back in the future and be a happier human. read more

I had never heard of this place before and was pleasantly surprised. The food was fantastic. looked good and tasted even better. Our waiter was friendly and patient while we looked over the menu. There is plenty of seating available in the multiple seating rooms to choose from. Even with a large number of handicapped spaces, once taken, parking could be an issue for those who have problems walking. read more

The food is good. My steak was undercooked, but I can live with that. Better than over. Martini was not served in a proper martini glass. I made a reservation well in advance, yet was seated in the bar. The hostess seemed annoyed when I insisted to be moved . Once we were moved to a more quiet location, we enjoyed our time together. I will go again and I hope they will improve. read more
