Mmmm mmm! This place was good, if not, decent! I visited a pen shop in York and this was nearby and the food looked delicious so why not?!? As soon as we stepped in, we were greeted. We went for lunch and it was not very busy so that was nice. We asked if we could eat outside and we were able to nab a seat there. We were seated a high table which was cool because we had a clear view of the street but was able to maintain staying in our little food bubble. When it came to order, we ended up ordering the Loaded Nachos for an appetizer and I ordered the Chicken Chesapeake with a baked potato and onion rings. I did order a drink but for the life of me, I can't remember which one. Please blame my foodie mind! (Haha!) The Loaded Nachos were good filled with white cheddar cheese sauce, tomato, jalapeno, black beans salsa, sour cream and chicken. It was good and the chicken was nicely seasoned and succulent. It was not chewy which is sometimes how chicken or any meat can be especially, when added to an appetizer like nachos. Unfortunately, I think that my biggest disappointment of this lunch was the Chicken Chesapeake. It came with a chicken breast, a 5 oz jumbo lump crab cake and mornay sauce. The chicken breast was just okay, it tasted bland as I think that maybe a little bit of salt and pepper could have helped. The jumbo lump crab cake was....okay, it was topped with the mornay sauce that was very tasty but the crab cake itself just fell apart. I didn't feel as though there was any structure to it and that with the amount of sauce on the crab cake and then the crab cake being too tender that it just falls apart...it wasn't a good mix. It felt like the crab cake was swimming in the sauce at the end, unfortunately. The mornay sauce tasted great with the mixture of cheeses so I really appreciated that. Besides the mornay sauce, the onion rings were another big favorite of mine. They were perfectly seasoned and crispy. I really liked the batter on the onion rings as I think it was executed perfectly and they helped to save the rest of the dish. Altogether, I'd enjoyed my experience at this restaurant. While one dish was lacking, the appetizer and my drink weren't. The prices were alright, a little steep but nothing I couldn't handle. The customer service was also really good as our waiter was kind and helped us with whatever we needed. If I'm ever back in the area, I would definitely come back again to try other things off the menu. read more

Last Sunday, my husband and I were driving home to Baltimore from the Finger Lakes when a World Cup game we were invested in was close and exciting. We were just outside York, so we decided to stop in town to watch the end of the game. I think I searched "sports bar" or "bar with TV" on Yelp and found White Rose. We found street parking nearby (it was a Sunday afternoon) and wandered in. We found two seats at the bar and sat down. Now, we really didn't need much: a TV playing the World Cup, a few beers, and some friendly service. We almost got all three at White Rose. Their beer selection was very standard for sports bar, and we ordered a couple (I had a PBR). The service at the bar was friendly and fast. Unfortunately, it was the TVs themselves that gave us problems. They have two in the bar area and both were playing the World Cup. So the problem? This was new for me, but both of the TVs had incredibly obstructed views even when seated at the bar. (This was even after a woman sitting at the bar who wasn't watching the game offered to move seats with us so we could try to have a better view. She saw us struggling.) The one on the wall behind the bar was the obvious one to watch. Unfortunately, at least 4 or 5 seats at the end of the bar can't see that TV around the enormous wine glass rack that hangs from the ceiling to the right of the TV. I could see maybe half of that TV. There was another TV hanging from the ceiling over some tables to the left. I could see about a half of that TV too, because they have - inexplicably - light fixtures that hang from the ceiling in front of the TV. We were craning our necks in the weirdest ways and basically staring right above the guy's head sitting next to us (I think he might have thought we were staring at him). I can't speak to the food or any drinks other than standard beers, but I can say that the obstructed TVs make it a place I would not return again for the purpose of watching a sports event. Granted, they were busy, and we didn't have our choice of seats, and it might be a great bar to just hang out at. But as a sports bar, it was a complete flop for me. read more

Went to this restaurant with the family on st paddy's day weekend at about 2pm. The place was hopping to say the least! Great ambiance with a full bar and restaurant but some quiet areas for family's to enjoy. We were seated and despite the busy atmosphere, the service was pretty quick and accurate. I had a peach ring fishbowl that was delicious and well-balanced. I had a BLT wrap with house made chips and though tasty, I was a little disappointed with the portion size as it was a bit smaller than expected. All in all, good food, great atmosphere, and fast and friendly service! Quality: 3.5/5 Service: 4.5/5 Cost: 4/5 read more

White Rose Bar and Grill - Seafood Near Me - York, Pennsylvania

I used to love this place and it's so disappointing where it's been heading over the past couple of years. I come in to town several times a year and we get the opportunity to have a few meals entertaining on the company each time. The white rose bar and grill was recommended to us years ago by a hotel staff member when we were tired of being wined and dined at first post. at first it became our go-to. A little bit more of a drive and certainly more of a parking hassle from where we were staying, but worth it- we'd get a good unique meal with apps, drinks, and desserts to please a lot of different tastes. We've celebrated several birthdays and two retirements here when those happened to land on our business trip. My "birthday cake" was once this raspberry lemon creation that I still dream about years later. It was made fresh by a local bakery for the restaurant as I understand it. They haven't had that for a number of years now. The last time I went it was just average. Way less variety. Average service. Today I asked Yelp assistant for a place to sit with my laptop and watch a ballgame with delicious food that wasn't fried and processed and that had low tops (as we get older that's not a comfortable way to sit. Also high tops are not inclusive of people with height or mobility issues in your party if you really want to welcome others.) White rose was recommended over all others and I thought I'd give it one more shot. (I've been here 3 weeks for this trip and have even opted for Texas Roadhouse and cheddars multiple times over going to white rose.) So I park and walk in and ask for a table for one with a low top where I could watch the game. Apparently they don't have any low tops in view of a tv. So I opted to watch on my phone and just eat briefly and get out it another venue the rest of the game. They took me to the back to sit in the center of the room on display at a 4 top where a whole wall of booths (including a 2 top) was open. I politely asked if I could have the small booth seat if possible. (I get many restaurants don't even want a 1 person table but I have to eat as a business traveler and I have budget to do it.) I told her I'd eat quickly. The waitress took a bit and when she came to get my drink order I noticed a couple across the room glaring daggers my way. Turns out they'd been waiting on here a long while for their check so they could leave and they yelled across the room as she was walking to get my drinks. I can't be mad at them for that. Especially if you were wanting to get out to watch the game. She was very friendly to me and came back with my drinks asking if I was ready to order. I said I could but how about you go take care of them first I can wait. I'm good if I have my drinks for a bit. I had the cream of crab. (It's heavy on cream and NOT a chowder if you're wondering). It's been a decent go-to over the years. I've noticed less and less favor- they used to dash it with some paprika and chopped scallions, but it's still good and worth it. That came out hot and tasty. I got a burger because I was pretty hungry- I'd skipped breakfast and had they had more appetizer options I'd liked, I would have ordered more and prolonged my stay. Likewise the lack of options extends on the sides. It's mostly just varying forms of the same potatoes. Heaven forbid there be another vegetable or even another carb. You can have chips, fries, tots, sweet potatoes, you get the idea. She said because it's brunch there aren't more options. Mind you it's actual lunch time for any normal person- not 10am anymore. I remember days where they had creative salmon and chicken plates that were really filling and delicious. The burger was fine- fresh vegetables in it, some cheese, not very greasy, adequate bacon that I appreciated wasn't just gristle but had meat to it. The pickle is nice but they have to get your 50 cents for it. None of the desserts caught my eye given I was going to go somewhere else and enjoy that games. The waitress was very friendly and sweet and my glasses were refilled promptly so I appreciated that. I did find it a little odd that the angry couple paid their ticket through the machine brought to their table but she brought me a check and took my card away and came back with it. But it was pretty prompt/I watch that account. On the way out I noticed something- the middle area which was an enclosed outdoor area has view of several tvs. And it had several low top tables that had been empty when I came in and empty when I left. (It was not a reserved group room because I'd called ahead). So they could have accommodated but just didn't. But also keep that in mind if you happen to be a wheelchair user or unsure on your feet- you're not going to get the same experience. Overall I'm just sad it's not what it used to be. Maybe the bar part is becoming the stronger aspect. And there's only so much I want to drink- in my travels I've even been enjoying mocktails just because. read more

White Rose Bar and Grill - Crab cake broccoli and bake potato - Seafood Near Me - York, Pennsylvania

Was very disappointed last night. My husband and my dinner were both over cooked and we weren't offer any discount. He ordered there steak medium rare and it came out more medium well. They didn't offer to make him a new one or any discount. I got their Alfredo with grilled shrimp. The shrimp was over cooked and hard to chew. Plus they charged you $12 extra for 4 shrimp. The Alfredo had a tomatoe taste and color to it as well. Not your regular Alfredo and it didn't say anything about tomatoe Alfredo sauce on the menu. Bartender ever even asked us if our meals were okay, just said I'm sorry when we told him we were not satisfied with our meals. Never offered for us to talk to a manager or anything. Just handed us our bill. Very poor service. Don't recommend eating dinner here. read more

One of the best spots in York! Have been here many times and it never disappoints no matter if it's for lunch, dinner, or just coming to grab some drinks. Come early though, they don't take reservations so it's first come first serve. The menu is big! Tons of different options. They have great seafood options too. The Crab Pretzel appetizer is great and shareable. So many of the Handheld choices are delicious. Tried the Cajun Seafood Wrap and it was so good! Great sweet potato fries as well! If you're getting drinks, the bar has plenty of options! Great selection of beer and cocktails. And always made well. White Rose is a really fun spot! The inside has plenty of seating and a cool vibe. There are 2 different bars inside as well. Definitely give White Rose a try if you're in town! read more

Stopped in at the smoking bar as it was the first door handle I grabbed after walking around the corner. There is three distinct restaurant/bar and grills here and the wife and we stepped into, what i believe, is the original bar. Bar tender was an extraordinary young lady that took great care of us. I ordered the bacon blue burger and it was legit, cooked to order and a perfect medium rare. Wow. Definitely want to stop back and try some more of the menu and possibly the other venus.

If we had more time, we would come back here for another meal! read more

Visited friends and they took me here. It was amazing! Please be sure you make reservations! I can't stress this enough. We did not but were seated as soon as there was space available. Our server was outstanding and everything was delicious! I had cream of crab soup and expected to not have much crab so I was surprised to find a fair amount in there. I ordered a chicken dish with crab for my main course and it was so good. Friends had burgers and they said they were equally delicious. Attentive staff and delicious martinis topped it off. Definitely recommend! read more

This was my second time eating here and the half and half soup was still delicious, full of crab meat and nice and hot. My entree consisted of the Atlantic salmon, baked potato, and broccoli, quite filling. Our service was good and the seating in the area we were in accommodated the 7 friends with me. My only issue was the bathroom filled with high school aged girls in there talking, gossiping and being in the way. Other than that, all was well and I'll be back. read more

This is probably a great bar for the right patron. On a Friday night, 10-11 pm, it was just LOUD. Tons of young adults drinking just a little too much. Not a place to relax with a drink and good conversation. Took us a little to get someone's attention. If I need to seat myself, post a little sign at the host station so I know I don't need to wait. I'm fine with just bar service. I expect it at that time of night. Just let me know. Drinks were well made. Tasted good. Felt the booze instead of tasting it. Probably a great spot for the right patron. Just not for me. read more

Stopped in for a drink and some appetizers and had a great time! We sat outside- great area for outside dining right downtown. The service was great, our waiter was very attentive. We ordered the pretzel bites, bang bang shrimp and the crown apple Moscow mules. The shrimp was delicious and a large portion size for the price, the pretzels were maybe a tad overdone but still tasted really good and also a large portion for a great price! The drinks were good and served in the classic mule mug! Overall a great experience, not 5 stars because I didn't have a full meal but I'm excited to come back and try some more of the menu! read more

Been coming here for over 15 years. Great food, mostly great service and good atmosphere. It's dependably good for everything. Last time there, we were at the bar and one of the bartenders was talking to his friend while the other bartender was doing all the work. During at least 15 minutes back and forth. It didn't hurt our service though. I'd recommend this restaurant/bar. Prices are good. read more

Seeing that this is currently a 3.5 rating is bewildering to me. We stopped at White Rose on our way back to the Poconos from Washington DC and a quick internet search brought up some food that looked excellent so we figured we had to stop. In the mood for burgers and wings made for a perfect reason to come here, and they did not disappoint one bit. First of all....FIRST OF ALL, let me talk to you about this drink. So I typically try to order things that are low/no calorie for my beverage and it is usually water, coke zero, unsweetened tea are my options. So our server (who I believe was also the bartender in our section) said they have some flavored unsweetened teas. Now I'm intrigued and she lists off a few flavors. Something about the unsweetened strawberry tea screamed order me, so I did just that. And then a few minutes later had another one. Wow. I believe she was just using a sugar free Monin syrup but this tea had a such a great flavor to it and actually tasted like strawberry. Not the essence of strawberry, not a hint of strawberry, but actual strawberry. It was fantastic. If I haven't mentioned already, this place is massive. There are at least 3-4 separate dining rooms inside as well as at least 2 outdoor dining areas that were closed in (I'm guessing because of the change in temperature and weather) with basically just big tents with windows. We started with some wings. Wanted to go pretty basic so we just went with medium buffalo and we got a ranch and a bleu cheese. The wings were large but also had a nice crispiness to the outside of them. The interior meat was still very moist and overall the wing was cooked perfectly. No tastes of fryer oil or anything off-putting, and the sauce had a good flavor and balance as well. I believe they made the ranch and bleu cheese in house and both had nice flavor. The ranch was almost whipped in consistency and had some herbs in it that you typically don't get when ordering ranch. I enjoyed all of this a lot. Samantha got the CBR sandwich (Chicken, Bacon, Ranch), Tara got (I can't remember the name of it) burger with prime rib, frizzled onions, and provolone, and I got the all American burger which was basically the same toppings you'd get on a big mac but add bacon. All 3 were very good. The CBR had a good overall flavor and the texture on the chicken was very good. Occasionally you get a chicken breast that just has a poor mouthfeel but this had a nice bite. Add in melted cheddar, bacon, and that ranch from earlier on a toasted brioche roll and now we're in business! The burger with the prime rib was very good as well, I mean, how could it not be? Prime rib on top of a quality burger patty with melted cheese and frizzled onions is basically a cheat code. If there is one thing I need to say negatively, it is that both this burger and mine were well past the temp we asked them to be. We both wanted medium rare and there maybe might have been a very slight bit of pink left in them, if any at all. The burgers were still juicy and excellent though. My All American was exactly what I envisioned, exactly what I wanted, and I was happy after eating it. Again the only thing wrong was the temp, but it tasted great. Also the service here was excellent, even down to the food runners/bussers. Very friendly, very professional, and all in all, just a wonderful experience. Absolutely recommend.

I haven't been to White Rose since 2015 when I last visited York and I remembered this place being pleasant. This visit was pleasant as well, but some of my food was overly salted. I had the Caesar salad, salmon, crab pretzel. The crab pretzel was a 5/5 for sure! The Caesar salad was also really good, but the dressing felt salty. The salmon was undercooked and was also salty.
