    My husband and I went in after a scenic train ride. He had the big beef (sauce and mayo) and I had streak and cheese. This was SO good!!! Our bartender was lovely. Don't sleep on the potato skins either!!

    8oz roast beef sandwich and fried clams

    Saw reviews about the beef sandwich so wife and I stop in to give it a try after a train ride. Definitely recommend if looking for an affordable lunch with good service and friendly staff. Roast beef sandwich was very tasteful with right amount of flavor.

    Great bartenders and outdoor seating area, but meh food. I'm sorry! The coleslaw was not great, but the onion rings were! Definitely get those. Loved the waitstaff. Super affordable menu. Just stick with the tried and true fried options and you'll be good!

    Looking for a place to sit outside and enjoy the sunset and have a beverage and snack. Just the right spot. Across the street from the train station, there is a great view and people watching galore. The staff is friendly and attentive to your needs. A groom assortment of beers and a great menu. I went with the crispy tacos with checking and a Tuckerman's Pale ale. Perfect for my 7 mile hike. Tucked between two buildings, you might miss it so look for the names, and grab a table and enjoy the view. Do it soon. It's getting cold out there.

    Our second time here and we really enjoyed the pastrami sandwich, roast beef sandwich, fries and onion rings. Plenty of outdoor seating. Friendly service. Great restaurant for a quick bite.

    Plate with fries, shrimp, haddock, and scallops

    I tried this place for the first time and enjoyed it. I got the seafood plate with shrimp, haddock, scallops and fries. The BBQ sauce was very good and they sell by the bottle if you want to by it. I believe it's James River sauce. Service was good and very friendly. Prices were in line with New England seafood so it was fair. I would definitely go back and this is a definite recommendation.

    It's good but I thought it was a Polish restaurant called 'Beefinski's.' I came ready for sausages and perogis but it ended up being okay.

    Fish and chips too heavily battered. Fried onion rings good. Roast beef sandwiches looked good. Did not order them.

    Nice patio and a great view of the mountains. Good service. My wife's margarita had too much sour mix and she could not finish it.

The pulled pork was smoky and tender, so delicious. The Cajun burger was delectable and incredibly tasty. Highly recommend the Moat, you can't go wrong with anything on the menu and they have one of the best breweries anywhere.

We had come in for lunch after a hike and we were really looking forward to having dessert after our meal and our server came over once we had finished our meals and just handed us the check. No questions asked if we had enjoyed it or if we had any thoughts on dessert. We felt rushed and not like a valued customer at all which really made our view of the business sour. We ended up not even mentioning dessert and paid the check and left it didn't seem like there would be any point of asking because of server seemed like she would much rather be anywhere else. We have had really good service in the past but given this visit it really has us questioning if we would come back.

Outside seating area sits about 10. We came here because we saw it had good reviews but still... really RECOMMEND this place.

Both were DELICIOUS. My steak was cooked to a perfect medium rare and the fries were amazing as well. The salad was great too. For drinks, we got the key lime pie martini and the lemon lavender martini. The service was quick and great too. The best part was the ambience - they have live music starting at 9 pm and some nights it's open mic. So we got dinner with an impromptu show and we loved it. I would come back here when I'm visiting again. One thing I would check before heading here for dinner is the hours. They are not open on Tuesdays and Wednesdays like most restaurants in the area due to staff shortage so I would double check they are open before making dinner plans here.

Pickles were mini-spears, crispy battered and delicious with the onion rings more fried chicken style with sweet onion. Perfect, crunchy and not greasy. No chowder for me but the other 7 did- 5-5 no notes. Dinner was black & bleu burger (meat was seasoned with Cajun spice and wipe-your-chin juicy. Chicken tenders were lightly dusted and tasted like actual chicken and not fryer oil. Chicken Greek salad did not disappoint with more greek ingredients than lettuce and ended up being quite filling for me. Haddock sandwich and seared scallops were both fresh and moist, not overcooked. My youngest ordered loaded cheese fries and finished them for breakfast this morning. Great 90's music in the background and everyone abuzz from the Sox game on the screens (we ended up losing). Left with three deli containers of chowder and two to go containers and full bellies. Solid, honest, fresh food with friendly folks. Recommended and we'll be back next year. And yeah, John. Everyone comments on how great John is. Not doubting his talent, but Julianne is the BEST. Sorry John. Personal pet peeve here. This for those offended by no split checks. A restaurant is a business that is sustained by speed of delivery for food, for drinks and even being greeted. Multiple checks bogs this system down by turning one transaction into 10-12 or how many in your party. Multiply by six other parties with split checks and hopefully you understand where this is headed. I do not speak for the owner nor staff when I say if you expect to go through life with no inconveniences, stay home with your entitlement and negative karma. This place rocks!

The garlic mashed potatoes were very good, but caution to those who don't love garlic as they are quite garlic heavy (which we loved!) The beer lines seem to be clean as the Downeast Cider tasted crisp and perfect! The wings were good but after getting medium I think I'd definitely go with mild next time as medium had quite a bite. Cons- the chicken tenders which were recommended were moist but very over fried! Quite disappointing. The mozzarella sticks were also over fried.
