    This is such a beautiful spot; you feel like you're stepping back into 1779 as they've kept the building in great condition. We stopped in and had an appetizer and drinks. They have a good GF selection and the patio is a great place to sit. Service was fantastic. Im glad we stopped in on a whim. Would love to visit again!

    Great comfort meal and cool historic atmosphere in the heart of Abington. Passed through on a business trip and spoke with several others at the bar saying this is always a must visit meal during their time in the town. Excellent service and a killer prime rib.

    This was a must-not-miss on my list and I'm so glad I didn't! Set in a historical building, you can't help but feel romanced by the low ceilings and swept into another century. Reservations are highly recommended. I had the Jagerschnitzel, which was heavenly with buttered spaetzel and glorious red cabbage. It came with a sizable, hearty salad, with house made dressings, and fresh, warm bread. For dessert I had the peanut butter pie and OMG you cannot miss it!

    As much as I'm tempted to say that visiting one of the oldest restaurants in the USA felt like a bit of time travel, the food was a very modern twist. I got the duck with an appetizer of fried oysters, with a pilsner. I thought all were great, although if I had gone with the German dishes to compliment the tavern-vibe I would have been equally happy. This place was BUSY. The only reason I don't give them 5 stars is how long it took to bring my food out. But otherwise, the service was good. Yet it's hard to argue with the vibe. The faux-candlelight, a real fire place, it had a lot of nice touches.

    Yummy! But yikes, those prices. I'd come back but only for a special occasion. The steak tips were good!

    Affordable buffet-style food with friendly service! I spent less than I would have at Mckie-Ds on a…read moreroad trip and got so much more value. We stopped in on a Sunday and managed to catch the time between breakfast (ends at 11AM) and brunch. I appreciated that fresh-made eggs and pancakes are part of the buffet. Als, the biscuits are on point. The potatoes they were serving were in a fairly unusual style (in thin seasoned strips), but they were just shy of going soft and the texture made them a tasty treat. Also, for the meat eaters, they had some lovely fried chicken in the brunch. Given the prices they were charging, the value on that is spectacular. I also really liked their salad bar. The variety of items was on point and I got to learn what an ambrosia salad was! This is definitely a great spot to stop in and fill-up. It's clearly a community joint with a bunch of locals. But they welcomed us right in and the server checked on us frequently, even though it was a buffet. I'll definitely pop in again the next time I'm driving through town!

    Food was good on a Sunday evening buffet. Things looked well prepared and labeled. Salad section…read morewas fresh. There was plenty of staff and the dining room space looked clean. The men's restroom smelled of sewage and that needs immediate attention. Prices mainly reasonable. Some people appeared to be ordering off menu and the rest got the endless $16.99 buffet. Not a bad deal.
