I also wanted to grab an espresso from their coffee bar, but there was no barista to be found. That was the negative but it was busy, to be fair.

The sandwich was on fresh delicious bread. They have a great selection of items here and we would definitely make the pit stop again - hopefully with more time to wait for custom orders.

It included quality ham, cheese, and bacon with seemingly fresh tomatoes and lettuce. I really enjoyed the sandwich and would recommend it to anyone in the area.

We started our meals with the cream of crab soup as an appetizer. The soup was excellent. It was filled crab meat and not too salty For our main course we had the stuffed flounder with crabmeat. The fish and crab were fresh and tender. This dish was also excellent. Our server Kenzie was pleasant, sweet and attentive. She explained many of the menu options and answered our questions patiently and thoroughly. Parking and seating for dinner can be difficult to find on Fridays and Saturdays because of the all you can eat crab legs offered on those nights. I highly recommend making dinner reservations for most nights. There is a bar offering wines, mixed drinks and beer. The outside of the restaurant is deceiving. There is seating for approximately two hundred diners. The back of the restaurant is set up like a cafeteria with approximately twenty four tables that can seat four people each. There are two smaller dining areas that can seat about fifty people each. The food I give five stars but the atmosphere I give four stars. The acoustics were not the best. At times it was difficult to hear my conversation with my wife. With that said, I stillI highly recommend this restaurant.

"A cool brewery in a nice quaint area that is close to the interstate for fast and easy access to a…read moredelicious beer and surprisingly good food." When me and my girlfriend take road trips or mini vacations we try to hit up every brewery in that area and/or surrounding areas. On a recent birthday trip to Rocky Gap Resort that my sweet and beautiful girlfriend arranged for us we stopped in here during the early evening last week. As we pulled up I liked the whole aesthetics of this place. So we walked in and the place was pretty busy for an early Sunday evening but I believe it was because of the musicians that were scheduled to play. I noticed a lot of cool metal art which I later found out the owner created. That's awesome! We immediately walked up to the bar and ordered a couple of beers. - Shanty Irish Red Ale for my gf 4/5 - Iron Bird Hazy IPA for me 5/5 As we were enjoying our beers the people next to us received a food order and I looked at my girlfriend and said that pizza looks good. She replied, You want me to get us one? I giggled because she is a foodie like me lol. So we looked over the menu and decided on a 10" cheese pizza with mushrooms & jalapeños and a small order of chicken bites with honey mustard. So after about 10 minutes our buzzer went off and my gf walked up to get our food. We really enjoyed every bit of the pizza and chicken bites. Thank you! - Pizza 4/5 - Chicken Bites 4/5 While we were eating our food there were two people who started playing music and this is why this place gets 4 not 5 stars. Not because the musicians weren't good but because a place this size should never have people playing music so loud that you can't even have a normal conversation without saying huh or yelling. One of the two owners came over and asked if I'd like another beer and I could barely hear her and then the other owner came over and introduced himself to us and talked to us for about 5 minutes or so about the brewery, business, art, etc. and we could barely hear him and some things he said we couldn't make out, which sucks because I would have loved to chat with him without a loud distraction. Seemed like a very interesting and knowledgeable man. Next time my guy. Listen, I'm a huge brewery person and this brewery has great vibes and everything you could want to enjoy while visiting one but having musicians with amps blasting inside no longer makes it what makes breweries great and then turns into a bar. The whole reason of going to a brewery is to enjoy good beer, good food, and good conversation and that's impossible with music blasting. You can either be a bar or a brewery but you can't be both. Light music or acoustic would be much better in my opinion and my opinion should matter because I've been to hundreds of breweries across the United States. Either way the beer was good and the food was too. We will be back soon. Thanks for creating a nice and welcoming space. Sláinte

I've been here a few times before. My wife and I fell in love with this place the first time we were here. The owner is personable, friendly and enjoys his work. You can tell by the way he carries himself. And his wife is right next to him. With her own smile. All that said, the real reason for coming is the beer. This place has much to offer. On the menu are a Belgian white, a seasonal lager, Kolach, Hefeweizen, Irish red, stouts, IPAs, and a porter. I ask you to find that much of a choice in any other brewery and walk out angry. It cannot be done. For today I had tastes of the pumpkin, harvest ale and lager, before settling on the lager. TBH we came for the Hefeweizen but they just ran out. If you are looking for a brewery stop in please, and leave me a response.

They do a great job here! Service was friendly and welcoming from the get-go. They have a flat-top griddle that they use to cook their build-your-own hotdogs. You customize your order on a little index card (like the ones they do for burgers) with condiments, toppings, and other goodies. It's nothing crazy complicated, but it was still very tasty and well cooked. The drinks are in the lines of a dive bar, but kind of modernized/elevated. They infuse some of their own mixes that they use for custom drinks, which I think is cool. The decor feels very homage-y to dive bars with lots of signs and stickers with sarcastic/vulgar humor. They also have a small arcade and billiards table in the back. Overall, it's a very cool spot with a friendly atmosphere. You should totally check it out if you're in the area.

It's $15 for an appetizer and $40 for a plate, depending on what you get. Don't expect huge portions, but the atmosphere is very classy. It's a lovely experience; typically, you pay for the table, so you can stay as long as you want. The food is pretty much all locally-sourced where feasible, sustainable, that kind of thing.

Chances are good that if you're coming here, you know what to expect: an elegant, expensive, quiet, enjoyable evening with classy wines.

Lot 12 Public House is, thus far, the crown jewel of dining in Berkeley Springs. Housed on the…read moreoriginal Lot #12 of the Town of Bath, the restaurant embraces its history without feeling like a museum where dinner happens to be served. It is warm, intimate, and genuinely connected to the town. Lot 12 offers a seasonal three-course prix fixe menu Friday through Sunday, and reservations are highly recommended. We were fortunate to be served by Betsy, Chef Damian Heath's wife. She was warm, knowledgeable, attentive, and clearly invested in the experience. The service was excellent, with thoughtful pacing and the kind of attention to detail that feels effortless when done well. In a historic home, it would be easy for the setting to do most of the work. Here, the food and hospitality more than hold their own. The menu reflects a chef who is classically French-trained but not afraid to have some fun. We added an extra appetizer because choosing only one seemed unreasonable. The Southern Picnic included deviled eggs, pimento cheese bruschetta, candied bacon, and house pickles, essentially a Southern church picnic that went to culinary school. The fried green tomatoes were crisp and fresh, served with marinated mozzarella and basil aioli. The bread, baked on-site, came with olive oil infused with rosemary and herbs from the restaurant's garden. It was a small touch, but one that reflected the care behind the meal. The lobster bisque, one of the evening's specials, was exceptional: rich, silky, deeply flavorful, and unmistakably lobster, not merely lobster-adjacent. It may have been the best dish of the evening, although choosing a favorite felt unfair given how consistently good every course was. It was the kind of bisque that makes you consider ordering a second bowl, then resent the social conventions preventing you from doing so. Between the appetizers and entrées, we were served a bright, refreshing mango and ginger sorbet as a palate cleanser. For the entrées, we had the BBQ spice-rubbed duck breast and grilled cold-water lobster tail. The duck was beautifully cooked and paired with smoked confit duck hash, tart cherry demi-glace, and fresh fruit salsa. The lobster was sweet, tender, and finished with garlic herb beurre blanc. My only minor complaint is that I would have happily traded some of the mashed potatoes for more lobster. This is less a culinary critique than a personal philosophy. Dessert was equally strong. The upside-down pineapple cake with coconut sorbet was warm, nostalgic, and refined without becoming fussy. The individual Key lime pie leaned a little sweet, which worked for me, although those who prefer a sharper citrus profile may feel differently. The attention to detail was evident throughout the meal. The dining room is charming and thoughtfully decorated, the service polished without being stiff, and the food refined without becoming pretentious. There was no weak course, no service misstep, and nothing we would hesitate to order again. Lot 12 is not merely very good for Berkeley Springs; it would hold its own in a larger and more competitive dining market. We have been exploring the local restaurant scene, and so far, nothing else has come close. We will definitely be back. And if Chef Heath ever decides to sell that lobster bisque by the gallon, I already know where it is going in my refrigerator.
