All the food was really good. Especially the chicken and waffles, fish and chips, and the summer strawberry salad. The waitress (Clara) was awesome. It was a little slow because they were so busy but they had a dude playing guitar and singing songs. Absolutely worth the wait and essential to end your day on the lake. read more

The family decided this was the place to go for early dinner the Saturday of Labor Day weekend. Fortunately it wasn't super busy and we got a parking spot right outside the door. That's pretty fortuitous since it was 100°+F outside. Overall it looked like parking was a smidge limited, so I'd imagine if this place is busy, you might have a bit of trouble finding a spot. We hit the shift change, but our waitress was prompt and had drinks (hello Guinness) for us pretty quickly. Sidenote though, sitting close to the door when it's really hot out can prove a bit uncomfortable with people entering/exiting and being blasted with heat. We started with an order of fried pickle spears, which were tasty, but fell apart after a bit or two and were fairly messy. Mom and I opted for an order of the chicken and waffles each. It looked significant in the pictures, but having not really eaten all day, I was feeling ambitious. Mom failed to eat half of hers. At the expense of my waistline, I was able to devour the entirety of the 4x millionaire's-esque bacon strips, 3x waffles, 2x fried chicken breasts, and the orange maple syrup (which was unique and fantastic). Overall, while it was pretty good, it was more of an exercise in quantity over quality. I can't even fathom a dessert after this size of meal. This was closer to a 4.5 star experience, but next time I'd probably want to do something with a smaller portion to save room for cheesecake and an Irish coffee. read more

Hiking at HaHa left us searching Yelp for a good place to eat. Yelp never lets us down! Walked right in and was greeted by the friendly staff. Gotta love a wee Irish pub!! Portions were fabulously huge. We caught the Happy Hour appetizers, which always is a win. Everyone was super happy with the menu options. Plenty to pick from. Fish and Chips were steady. Highlander pie had a strange taste, almost rotten. (Main reason for a 4star, not five) Chicken sandwich was huge and tasty. Kids nachos were made with homemade chips, not great for my picky eater. Overall, still a solid choice for dinner at the lake. read more

The Highlander is in a plaza with plenty of parking. The interior has a welcoming pub vibe. We came for lunch with our kids on a Saturday at noon and there were plenty of open tables. I was surprised it was a brunch menu, but was not disappointed with the food at all. My favorite was the fish and chips for sure! Perfectly crispy batter and a great tartar sauce. We were just driving through but if in the area again, I would definitely give them another visit. read more

Went here today for late lunch-ordered a patty melt.. came out bread toasted in toaster,meat slapped in the middle with two pieces of cold unmelted cheese on it it was I can't even say mid..grade it was gross disgusting husband ordered fish and chips.. thick greasy gross disgusting batter same with the onion rings they came out with 5 pounds of batter and logged with grease I'm so disappointed wish I would have never stopped! waste of my 67$ Sadly the sweet waitress it was not her fault she wasn't the cook so did not take it out on her and tipped her for the garbage food we ate!! Will never be back! read more

My grandma is a local here and loves this place for the cottage pie. Naturally when I came down I had to try it. My meal was great it normally comes with green beans and bacon but they let me sub another side for freeeee. Love that since I have dietary restrictions. Although the chicken was perfectly fried and served extremely hot. My favorite thing was the serving size of mashed potatoes! You probably can't tell by the photo but I promise each scoop was a solid handful! They are really heavy handed on the gravy and it's a bit bland but nothing some extra pepper can't fix. Waitress was super attentive and knowledgeable about the menu and deals. Apparently she's the same waitress who often serves my grandma. So I thought that was really sweet. They have nice happy hour deals on appetizers and drinks. What is really entertaining about this place is they serve flights of whiskey shots! I can only imagine the type of shenanigans going on here after dark. Also it's kinda funny there's a bbq place next door and it was absolutely DEAD on a Friday night. Really goes to show you should always eat where the local do! read more

Great place, lots of locals, good character. Lots of variety on the menu, huge portions, pretty good prices considering the portions and an attentive waitress. Everyone loved their food, especially the shrimp and fish. My buffalo wings were just ok, cooked great but the sauce was just ok. But everything else looked and tasted great. Highly recommend! read more

I had the shepherds pie that was sooooo full of potatoes. The little amount of meat was flavorful but the ratio of meat to potato was a 5 to one ratio. Wife had the chicken Rueben and it was delicious. Place was very busy. Staff was attentive. Family oriented and clean. Parking was tight but doable. read more

Came in on Saturday, 8/30 about 1:30pm. The drinks were very good. Great mojito. Highlander pie and the Big Irish burger were very good. Didn't really care for the onion rings, overly battered. The problem was everything came out at the same time. Appetizer, salad, food. Even though we asked it to be spaced out. Comment was, I guess the kitchen was fast. It ruined the entire experience for us. They need to work a bit on service read more

4.5 out of 5! Stopped here after a long day and before heading home. No wait to be seated, but they were somewhat busy. Our waitress was very helpful and made some recommendations. We tried the onion rings for an appetizer...WOW! They were huge...like the size of a palm and an inch tall! So facility and paired with a great dipping sauce. Not too greasy either. I had a patty melt and hubby had the buffalo chicken wrap. We both loved our food, but couldn't finish...thanks to the onion rings! Prices were affordable. Would definitely go back...I have a few other things I would like to try next time. read more

What a GREAT place at the lake! Food is AMAZING! I got the Highlander Pie and it tasted so good and the skillet was so big. It was super filling. Service was great, like I was down south in a small town. They take REALLY good care of you here. The place was packed on a Tuesday for lunch so you know that is a good sign. Lastly, they have a nice atmosphere and it feels really homey inside. There are a few TVs along with a full bar. Gotta go and try this gem!! read more

We came here intending to have a meal, but it was clear when we arrived that the noise level from the live music would make that unpleasant. Multiple folks around us were struggling to carry on a conversation - we were not in the minority. We had one round of drinks (which were great!) and left. A shame, we were looking forward to the meal!) Our perceptive server sorted out that we thought it was too loud and said she asked them to turn down the sound system a bit, but we perceived no difference. I'm a musician by trade, and have a high tolerance for noise, but this was well beyond my threshold of comfort. In a space this small, there is no need for amplification. Go acoustic, or put the band outside. I'd come back to try the food, but I'd make sure there wasn't live music. read more

Sat at the bar hoping service for drinks would be awesome. It wasn't. Bartender was more interested in being the life of party rather than serving customers. Food was average. Companion had the burger, which was safe. I got the Highlander Pie. Nothing outstanding. Wasn't bad, just wasn't incredible to rate it highly. With good service I am sure this place could be fun. read more

Everything was absolutely amazing including our waiter, Owen. Food was perfectly cooked and the onion rings were HUGE! Definitely worth it! The live music was great, not so loud you couldn't hear over it and not so quiet it got lost. Will be back!! read more

We were a party of 8 coming in on a busy Friday night. We don't have to wait to be seated and our waitress was on the ball. We were only given one seasonal menu, that most of us didn't see until after we ordered. We thought we were let down because there were some delicious sounding items on that menu. In short, no one was let down. Everyone ooohed and ahhhed over their choices. The food was seriously picture perfect and full of flavor. We had the Highlander pie, the bacon avacado burger, Brussels, fries, shrimp pasta, tuna tostadas, a GIANT BLT, steak and mashed potatoes, the stew in the bread bowl, chicken fried bacon.... This would be my pic to go back to next year as well. They had live music going that was a nice touch. The restaurant itself isn't that large, but it works. I can't wait to go try more things off the menu. read more

Incredible food. Start with a reimagined BLT and don't miss the fish and chips! They literally melt in your mouth like a pillow.

Great place to eat and drink. Our bartender Joel was amazing! The owner is military vet. I was visiting friends at the Lake and they said it was the best local place. This place has great food, fun and drinks. We had roasted Brussels sprouts and wings as appetizers and they did not disappoint! My husband had bacon & avocado burger with fries. The burger was juicy & flavorful and the portion was great! The atmosphere is friendly, energetic and fun- filled. Highlander's is a gem in the community. I can't wait to fa back this summer!!

Everything I have tried I have enjoyed. The Highlander burgers are my favorite. Sometimes the wait time is long. The facility is very comfortable feeling but seating is small for their popularity. Their onion rings are some of the best! The Ruben's are really good. Went in on a Sunday wanting a steak and only the brunch menu was available, little disappointed. The wait staff is always friendly and attentive. read more

Great food and service! My wife and I both enjoyed our meals. We've eaten there twice and had different meals, both were very yummy.

Stopped in for a late lunch with a friend. I had heard mixed reviews which is not uncommon for a recently opened restaurants. Our food was really good. I chose the lunch portion of the Highlander pie (their version of a shepherd's pie). It was fantastic. My only small complaint is that the menu didn't indicate there were mushrooms included, so I spent a decent amount of time picking out the mushrooms. Other than that, it was FANTASTIC! My friend had the Buffalo chicken wrap; it was solid...a little too much lettuce and the sauce could have had a little more zing. The fries were very good! The service was friendly and prompt. The bar has a cute Scottish theme. I'd for sure go back. read more

Always great! Great pricing and a neighborhood vibe! Staff is generally expeditious,

The Giant fried Mushrooms are phenomenal. This place has unusual food that cannot be found anywhere in Camden County. Service is Outstanding. read more
