First time at the Stirling Tavern, plenty of places to sit. We sat in the bar area at a table. Liam was the bartender and our waiter, he provided excellent service. Drinks were made well and didn't seem lite on ingredients. Food was also amazing! Burgers were very good and cooked to perfection. We each got a different side and I think the onion rings were the best! read more

Stirling continues to be a really solid option for a big group. I recently visited with a party of 14. We were able to make a reservation easily online for our large party which I really appreciated. The server handled our big group like such a pro - he kept the drinks flowing and there was not a long wait time for our food. The burger was very solid, but the bun was weighed down with lots of aioli and it was very soggy. I probably would not order this again. I love their negroni here and it's always a must order. Solid all around! read more

A few of us at work decided to head over to this spot for some apps and drinks. It's a great spot with good music, drinks, and bites. There's a parking deck right across the street too, which is super helpful/convenient. It's definitely a vibe and when you're done here you can always crawl to the next spot since Motown has so many cool spots to hit. read more

Was so sad to see they took the Crab Rangoon quesadilla off the menu a few months back, so imagine my surprise when it was listed as a lunch special today! Drove the 30 min to pick it up and was so glad I did! I hope they add it back to the menu permanently. read more

Excellent quality and service! Enjoyed a meal here before a show and the apps came out quicks. The Voodo wings were hot and flavorful, usually dry rubs are too salty, but these were great. The Tavern burger was nice and juicy and cooked to perfection. Let's get into the drinks, the hit! The vibe was nice, everyone seemed to be enjoying their conversations in the dinning area and at the bar folks were cheering on for the World Cup. I would highly recommend making a reservation. read more

Went in ~4:15pm for happy hour bites and drinks, and it was quite busy with people grabbing an early dinner or drinks at the bar. The upstairs area is cute and comfortable with some sofa seating, and also an outdoor patio which seemed to have bar and table seating. The bites were delicious though a bit hard to share. My favorites were the Flatbreads - really can't go wrong with either the Supreme or Mexican Street Corn. Would love to visit again! read more

Great restaurant in the heart of Morristown, NJ. There's plenty of seating in this restaurant on the first and second level. where there were also cozy couches and a bar for those having drinks or waiting for a table. We were there for brunch and the menu has a nice selection of American style cuisine. We ended up ordering the fried chicken sandwich, lobster roll, fig and grilled cheese sandwich, and the breakfast . Everyone thoroughly enjoyed their meals and we were all raving about the delicious french fries with each of our dishes. Service was good, but once the restaurant got crowded, it was hard to flag down our waiter. I needed some additional maple syrup for my chicken sandwich and the waiter stopped by to say it was on its way up from the kitchen, but it definitely took a while before it reached the table. Bottom line, I would definitely go back to this restaurant and try some other dishes from the menu. read more

Stirling Tavern is a casual but polished neighborhood bar and grill with a trendy aesthetic and a cozy ambiance; a menu featuring classic pub favorites elevated a notch above your average bar fare with gourmet ingredients; an innovative and seasonally-updated adult beverage program; and attentive and friendly service. The space on the first floor is divided into a lively bar area with plenty of TVs and a slightly quieter main dining room with comfortable booths and tables. There is also seating on an outdoor terrace on the second floor and a few tables in front of the restaurant on South Street if you're up for dining al fresco. It's a terrific option in Morristown that's sophisticated enough for a date on the outdoor terrace when the weather cooperates or a pre-theater meal in the dining room, yet casual enough for beers and appetizers while watching a game in the bar area. The menu captures the essence of modern American comfort food. Whether you're grabbing the Stirling Burger ($18) -- made from a tasty short rib and brisket blend -- or splurging on the Grilled New York Strip ($48) topped with crabmeat fries, the quality is evident. They are also great with dietary restrictions. Between the various poultry, fish, and vegetarian options on the menu and the kitchen's willingness to make moderate accommodations in any other dish, there's something for everyone. What really makes this place stand out, though, is the service. We recently celebrated my niece's 21st birthday here, and our server made it memorable by honoring her milestone birthday by playfully asking for her ID EVERY SINGLE TIME she ordered a drink. It became a running joke for the night and made the occasion feel extra special. The only reason it's not a full 5 stars for me is that both sides of the main floor can get pretty loud when it's packed and the prices are a bit on the higher side for casual dining. We will definitely be back! PRO TIP #1: Stirling Tavern offers a Happy Hour Monday through Friday between 3pm and 6pm, which features specials on certain cocktails, wines, beers, and light snacks. You must be seated at the bar to take advantage of the promotional pricing. If you enjoy a good Old Fashioned, try the JB ($10), made with Four Roses bourbon, blood orange amaro, orange & angostura bitters. PRO TIP #2: Stirling Tavern does not have a private parking lot, but there is plenty of paid on-street parking on South Street or Maple Avenue. Bring change or use the ParkMobile app for the meters ($1 per hour) Monday through Saturday from 8am til 6PM; all street meters are free Monday through Saturday after 6pm and all day on Sunday. If you can't find a spot on the street, paid parking is also available in the Morristown Parking Authority Lot #8 (@ 10 Franklin Street) and Vail Parking Area (@ 110 South Street). FREE on-street parking is located on MacCulloch Avenue, just two blocks from Stirling Tavern. read more

Much over hyped have tried this place and well forndinner.. that was enough. Not a fan . If we go back would be for a drink but not food. I was disappointed i don't know the rating is a 4. We tried it twice. Didn't impress. read more

I had previously come to Stirling Tavern for a birthday on the rooftop for drinks, but I came back for dinner! My expectations were exceeded with the unique options on the menu and I also appreciated that there was an icon next to each item on the drink menu to indicate what kind of glass it comes in. For drinks, we each ordered a sangria which were tasty and for appetizers, we had the crab rangoon quesadillas and birria rolls. As a huge fan of scallion pancakes, the crab rangoon quesadillas were so good and I would definitely order them again. For our mains, we got the boar ragu gnocchi and winter rigatoni. My friend liked her gnocchi and my rigatoni was good, but it was too salty for me especially with the bacon. Overall, I had a great time with Stirling Tavern and would come back! read more

I came here on Saturday after 'Dessertopia'. It was about 2pm and it was BUSY. We were able to be sat right away but there was a lot of groups there. We started with the Half Dozen Jumbo Wings in the flavor of honey garlic buffalo. They were super crispy, saucy and delicious. They didn't seem that big, but they were great. I wish I had gotten two orders because six wings were definitely not enough. My husband ordered the Maple Everything Fried Chicken Sandwich which was buttermilk fried chicken tenders, spicy maple drizzle, everything seasoning, bacon, and cheddar. I did not try it but he loved it. I ordered the Falafel Burger which was crispy house-made falafel patty, herb dressing, romaine, tomato, cucumber, and red onion. It was good but a bit dry. I liked that it was something different but I probably would order something else next time. The fries that we got with our meals were also very good and crispy. The dessert menu looked good like I said, we just came from Dessertopia and the last thing we needed is dessert. I would like to try this place for dinner, not brunch. I am not really a brunch person. This place was somewhat pricy, it was about $75 with tip. The service was quick and friendly. Like I said, I would like to try this place again for dinner. read more

Stirling is by far one of the best restaurants in Morristown. Their rooftop is so fun and open and inviting, they have great seating and bar seating too. Love their sangrias and their burgers. read more

The Dried age burger was to die for. Never thought I'd pay $30 for a burger and fries, I definitely would do it again here! We also had the squid. Also great. Service and drinks were on spot. Ambience was nice and fancy. Expected in that area. read more

Out of 9 of us, 3 had to send dinners back. Dinners were not throughly cooked, or were cold. We all settled for a burger, when original entrees could not be prepared again. And that was over cooked. Too many places to choose, to settle for this joint. Waiter never came back for refills. Go ANYWHERE else. read more

Had a nice brunch here, big menu and lots of drink choices! Family friendly and great vibes. Service was great! Nice big space so you don't feel cramped which is always a plus. Can't wait to go back! read more

Came here with a group of friends on a Sunday brunch, this place is very nice. Seems very clean. The food was delicious and they were accommodating to our group.

We came her with some friends and they did not disappoint! The award winning wings definitely lived up to their name and the cocktails were creative and refreshing! The other apps we got from the flatbread to the crab Rangoon quesadilla were fun twists on bar food but elevated. Unfortunately the entrees were lacking. The goat cheese gnocchi were a little bland and didn't have much tang that you would expect from goat cheese and the special was a paella which was served in a regular dish so I missed the crunchy rice that you would normally get at the bottom of a pan of paella. read more

We used to consider Stirling tavern our "go to" place on our nights out. We enjoyed the getting there early and having drinks and appetizers before we sat down to dinner. That is no longer the case since the change to the appetizer menu. Where once we would hang out and get 2 pop corns, or fried pickles and something else to go with our drinks before dinner - we now find those items are gone and there is nothing to nibble on while we enjoy our drinks before dinner. Just moments ago, my wife suggested we go elsewhere because the vibe of the bar has changed... no longer a place to hang out and have nibbles and drinks before dinner. As long time patrons of the place, we feel a sense of loss as we seek other places to eat. We will not return any time soon. Steve Z. read more

We were a party of 8 (including two kids) who experiences a lovely Sunday lunch at Stirling. You can tell Stirling holds their food and atmosphere to a higher standard from any other ordinary pub. Upon entering, you'll note the typical wooden, cozy interior of a tavern, and yet the place is bright and airy, which brings it into the modern world. As this was a special holiday celebration, we went from soup to nuts. Collectively, we felt the appetizers and desserts outshone the entrees. There were a few items ordered for the tables - some where instant hits. The burger bites were a particularly big hit. It was a true feat of culinary wonder that the little slider patty was still cooked to medium and juicy despite its small size - and the fact that it was served on sweet potato waffle fries instead of buns? Genius. Other crowd-pleasers were the Mexican street corn flatbread and the truffle parm wings. Other appetizers that were fair but forgettable - the popcorn shishito peppers (tasty but a little weird to eat because they were cut so small - I guess that's what makes them 'popcorn') and the birria egg rolls. Birria is very trendy right now, and one expects a saucy, beefy experience when such a label - there was none of that there. They would have been solid 'short rib' eggs rolls if they were labeled as such - perhaps something the menu coordinator should consider. As I mentioned, the entrees left us a bit disappointed. I think the problem is that Stirling Tavern wants to be innovative in addition to cooking genuine high quality food - and the entrees just tried to do too much and didn't really work. For example, I had the Everything Maple fried chicken sandwich. That it itself is a lot going on - just the maple, the fried chicken (which was delicious by itself), and the everything bagel seasoning - but they added bacon AND cheese on this sandwich, which I found too much and unnecessary. A solid fried chicken sandwich doesn't need a whole lot of additions if the chicken is good. The truffle parm grilled cheese was also a huge let down, and two people at the table ordered it. There was nothing to the sandwich - just bread, with barley any cheese whatsoever - and they didn't really get 'truffle' flavor from the sandwich. If you're going for for a truffled grilled cheese, a good, melty cheese is a must - parmesan would not be my first pick, but rather an addition to another cheese. The other entrees that we had - the salad, the avocado toast - were unfortunately average. (Although one person in our party did enjoy the brie and fig grilled cheese.) Dessert was another high point of the meals. My favorite was the tiramisu creme brulee (which was an great twist on a classic), but the mango sorbet was also very delicious. We also had a bunch of cappuccinos and they hit the spot. Throughout the meal, we had two servers who were incredibly attentive. Plus, their cocktail menu has an exceptional list of crafty drinks that would make any connoisseur happy! I would love to try this place again and see what they have to offer for lunch and dinner! Definitely give this place a try - it's worth it! read more

FOREIGN OBJECTS IN FOOD!! Wish I was kidding. Ate there last night and still can't get over the horrific experience we had. One person in our party ordered the onion rings, that were so crunchy! They she realized there was part of a bamboo skewer cooked into the battle of the onion ring! When the manger was called over, he asked for the OTHER piece as well that was siting on top of another onion ring on the plate. Minutes later someone else at the table screamed asking "what the hell is that?!" and was crunching on something. It was a FREAKING HUMAN TOOTH OR CROWN that was cooked into the French fries! Manager was called over again, very apologetic, but also said they've "had problems with the distributer of the fries before". Why are you still using them?! I woke up this morning thinking about and realizing how much fried food we saw on tables as we were leaving and that every freaking person eating there last night was exposed to that human tooth knowing they DIDN'T change the oil that fast! So anyone who ate there around 5-7 pm on the night of 1/31/26, you've disgustingly been exposed. We will never go to this establishment again. read more

If you haven't been you need to go. Great food and service when we were there this summer.

What a find! We visited The Stirling Tavern after arriving into Morristown, New Jersey and this is our kind of place. We were seated very quickly and the person seating us brought over some water for the table. Our waitress was a joy to deal with and was attentive throughout the meal. I opted for the southwest salad with grilled chicken which was served on.bed of spinach and had black beans, corn, tortilla strips, avocado and more. The salad was exceptional and would be something you'd never get tired of ordering. My wife went for the street corn flatbread which had all the flavors one would expect from street corn and was an excellent dinner option. Our oldest daughter went for the fried chicken served with hot honey and a side of smashed, crispy potato salad and snap peas while our youngest opted for the grilled cheese off of the kids menu. Every single bite was enjoyed by the entire table and it seems like you simply couldn't go wrong picking anything off the menu. Shoutout to The Stirling Tavern for having a couple nice mocktails and a few non-alcoholic beers on the menu. If we lived in the Morristown area, this would absolutely become a regular spot for our family. Definitely give it a shot! read more

Excellent ingredients. Simply prepared with passion. A wine list that complements the fare. And many craft beers. Our waiter knew the menus inside and out. Great service. A genuine smile. What a roof deck! Just go! read more

My party of 4 visited on a Saturday for brunch shortly after opening. The hostess told us they would need the table back in 1.5 hours for a reservation, and asked if we were okay with that before seating us. While the restaurant was not busy upon arrival, it quickly filled up during brunch service. We ordered the voodoo wings for the table, which the server recommended as one of the signature appetizers. It was a dry rub with a hint of spiciness. We enjoyed all the entrees we ordered, but our favorite was the seasonal Duck and Mushroom Hash. The shiitake mushroom puree was so delicious and paired so well with the sourdough bread. read more

I liked the ambiance of this place! I was super excited when they bought out the bottled water which was Saratoga. I am GF and do not particularly like spicy foods so we ordered the edamame without the spice and I asked if the salmon could be made Gluten Free. I was told it could. The meal came and the salmon was delicious, but the black rice & carrots, were extremely spicy. The waiter took it back and bought out the sides again. I was able to eat the salmon from the first plate. The second dish was the same level of spicy. A woman in a devil costume came over and she was sweet and apologetic. She offered a substitute salad. I did not want. They ended up taking my meal off the bill & bought a dessert. I thought this was the right thing to do. I would give them another try as I believe the chef is very good, but it might have been partially my fault by requesting something that was not GF. My husband liked his Olive ap and burger. read more

Overall a good meal, with some notes... great cocktails, friendly service, tasty food, though much of the menu is a bit on the spicy side, without noting as such. While we like spicy food, not everyone does, and I was surprised at the level of spice in the sauce accompanying the scallops. I'd also give zero stars for the sear on the alleged seared scallops (see pic, not even the smallest hint of a sear), but they were otherwise well cooked. My husband and kids enjoyed their burgers, though the jury was out on the tavern sauce. The oysters were lovely as was the flatbread, just leave the sauce on the side if you aren't looking for some heat. For some reason, they leave the front door open as the evening gets cooler, I assume for ease of service outside, which made it quite cold inside. Not enjoyable to have to need a jacket through dinner if you're seated near the doors. As I said, an overall good meal, probably closer to three and a half stars, we would come back if ever in the area. read more

Don't waste your time, the staff is under age. There was fruit flies around my table . When I paid my bill, I left the full amount with a 20% tip. I left the restaurant with my family, five minutes later I get a phone call saying I only paid half the bill after being on the phone with them for 10 minutes going back-and-forth. I was told that some money fell out of the check book and was on the floor. read more

Came here last weekend for some nice Sunday brunch, I've heard amazing things about this place and it did not disappoint. Food: I ended up ordering the lobster mac & cheese which was very unique as it had small circular pieces of pasta instead of your standard penne or elbow macaroni. My wife had avocado toast which was on amazing sourdough bread. Aesthetic: very beautiful place and the rooftop bar and seating which we sat at were well kept and perfect for that day. Service: our waitress was very nice and patient with us. read more

I had a very concerning experience at Stirling Tavern during a business dinner with a party of nine last night. The food itself was fine, but the handling of a serious food allergy was unacceptable. During appetizers, we informed our waitress that one member of our party has an onion allergy. We were asked again while ordering entrees, and we clearly reiterated the allergy. Despite this, when her meal arrived and she began eating, she immediately had an allergic reaction with visible inflammation. She had to take her prescribed medication, and we rushed to get her back to her hotel. Her condition worsened--she began vomiting and ultimately had to be taken to the hospital. The waitress was apologetic and admitted she had only reviewed the menu herself and did not confirm with the chef. After we pressed the issue, she checked, and it turned out there was onion in every component of the dish. The manager came over when the bill was presented and did remove her meal and some appetizers, which was appropriate, but his response lacked the level of concern and urgency you would expect given the seriousness of the situation. Even more disappointing, there was no follow-up call the next day, despite having my contact information. This points to a clear lack of proper training and basic food safety protocols. We were fortunate this situation didn't end even worse. I would strongly caution anyone with food allergies to think twice before dining here. read more

I was able to have a beet salad with added falafel. The salad was made up of roasted beets, butternut squash, rosemary whipped ricotta, pomegranate arils, pine nuts, apple cider gastrique, granny smith apple, and red veined sorrel. This was loaded with the roasted beets. I could not believe how many there were. They were roasted nicely and paired well with all of the other components of the dish. I just thought there were a tad too many. The falafel patty was not too bad. It was cooked appropriately with plenty of seasoning. The highlight here was the apple cider gastrique. It really brought everything together. read more

Ughssss , I don't even know where to start . The service : when you first get in the hostess are not necessarily the nicest thing. We decided to sit at the bar and the bartender is very rude like he's doing you a favor , all they have is craft beer and it's terrible . Half of the menu is fried food so not exactly the healthiest either . We ordered French cut chicken and the ragu gnocchi which was a pile of mush . I don't usually write reviews like this but that was just a disaster all together , not to mention the are extremely overpriced for the kind of food ( bar fried food ) they offer . Ambience can get really loud and the stools by the table tops are well glued and uneven . Would definitely recommend you to go elsewhere read more

Went in to grab lunch after being starved all day and wasn't pleased with the atmosphere. Try not to sit outside during summer months, there will be teenagers in groups (6 or more teens) that will wait for you by the Cluck U to finish your service and try to take something from you like a credit card or bag. I didn't feel safe. When you do try to sit inside, there will be flies everywhere that you can't escape. No matter what table you try to move to, the flies sit on your food and hang out. This is all because of an open door in the front and a rooftop bar that also has an open door. Just too many flies on the food and I felt uncomfortable by it the whole time. read more

We didn't take the time to eat as we had reservations at another restaurant, but wanted to stop in as we are huge fans of the Stirling Hotel and know these are the same owners. The bartenders were fantastic as were the hosts, and as you can see by the menu, there's a lot to choose from. The decor is super cool with lots of old rockstar photos. Exceptionally clean as well. Next time we are in the area we will be sure to have some food as all the brunch dishes looked yummy. They also take reservations, which is a huge plus! There is a parking lot directly across the street. that is free as well. read more
