Popped in for brunch today. We've heard good things and wanted to give this place a shot. It was Sunday brunch- on the tail end. Very impressive selection on the menu. Something for everyone. I ordered the coffee old fashioned to start- a blend of Kahula , Bourbon and some bitters. A very nice brunch cocktail. My better half had a Bloody Mary. Pretty standard but good. For food, I ordered the pastrami Reuben. Really good. High quality, cooked very well. The home fries accompanying it were nothing special. My better half had the classic breakfast. Eggs, sausage, grits, potatoes and a biscuit. Overall she enjoyed it, but nothing extraordinary. Good food, cooked well. We ate at the bar. The bartender was only ok. Service was fine, just not super personable. If you're in this area I would recommend it, but probably not worth an hour ride. read more

We were in town for a Chiropractic convention and stumbled upon this great Tavern. We had awesome appetizers which were hot stuffed peppers and Calamari. We decided to have dinner and ordered food which was no disappointment. The service, waitress and food were certainly worth the wait. Definitely recommend and will return if ever in the area again. Certainly recommend! read more

Great menu, great service, great beer selection and cocktails. Very cool atmosphere. A little pricey

Try not to eat outside. The traffic on Rt. 228 is very loud. Food is great. Bring back the beet salad. read more

This is my go-to place for meeting friends & for getting takeout. My favorites are the bison burger and the Brussel sprouts, but the salads are delicious, too. Brunch on Sundays is nice: get eggs hollandaise with the crab cake! read more

I have been to this place previously for bar food and it has been good. Recently ordered a couple dinners to go when I was in the area. The Filet steak salad I got was very good. Cooked perfect, however it did have a couple fatty ends on the tips. The jumbo lump crab cake dinner was very good as well but can be a little too spicy with the Cajun cream. Plenty of jasmine rice provided with this dinner. Service fine. Another place that can get loud hence the takeout. read more

This place is amazing. Great service, great atmosphere, and the food is off the charts. If you enjoy a drink, they have a lot of great beers on tap, there's a good cocktail menu, and you have to see the whiskey/bourbon/scotch menu to believe it. The food...oh, the food. I got the Jumbo Scallops. My only complaint is that they have ruined me for any other scallops. Seriously. I had no idea scallops could be that sweet/delicious and soft. It's on a bed of corn and bacon risotto - sweet, smokey deliciousness! The green beans were also some of the best I've ever eaten. Hubby got the PEI Mussels. Also amazing. Spicy, but nothing to scare off even a spice wimp like me. Ask for extra bread. You'll want it to sop up some of the sauce. And, be sure to get all of the little sausage pieces and peppers hiding in the sauce. Maybe put it on the bread and have a little slider? Do not let this gold go to waste. A very, very fair price for the quality. read more

The Breakneck Tavern is the best restaurant in its vicinity. It has an upscale/casual blend at the same time. I have had a few of their meals from a pastrami sandwich to a buffalo burger. Both were above par. They do a good job at trying to go the next level without going over the top. They also have happy hour worth visiting if you sit at the bar. read more

My husband and I had brunch this morning at Breakneck and enjoyed everything about our visit. We both had a version of eggs Benedict-I had crab cakes and he had filet. Both were excellent! The accompanying home potatoes were perfectly seasoned. I also had a blackberry mimosa, which was wonderful. The service was friendly and timely. We even enjoyed the music! I highly recommend trying this place out! read more

Great happy hour Go early as even need to see hostess for seating th bar. Wait staff good. Hostess staff could be friendlier read more

It was a good Sunday afternoon of family and football. The NY steak was so good I forgot to give it a photoshoot

Thursday 4/23/20 Ordered the BOGO chicken sandwich, was it on a Chiabatta bun like the menu said, no. Was there smoked cheddar, honey mustard, prosciutto and kale slaw, I could not find it. The fries, cold and soggy. Just a take out mess. The food was ready when we got there that's a plus. read more

We have been to the Breakneck Tavern and enjoy their food! Today was a mixed bad of my meal being very good and Jo's (my wife) so so. Visiting my daughter and son-in-law often ends up with a trip to the Breakneck as their food is good and they are one of the few places that you can enjoy indoor dining during COVID. I order a draught red ale from their quite good beer menu and unfortunately it was the end of the keg and they could only get half a glass which they brought me and asked me to make a another selection presenting menu with two other red ales suggestions in which I choose the one from Redstone Brewery. I was a happy camper having one and half beers for the price of one! We ordered lunch with me choosing their fried brined chicken sandwich and asking to substitute a side salad for the fries. Jo sticking to her low carb high protein regimen went with the mushroom and cheese burger (sans bun) with a side of mushroom risotto (the risotto was to hard to resist but it fit into the macros at the end of the day so all good). My chicken sandwich had a huge full breast of chicken that the brining made so tender and juicy with a nice slight dill taste to it! So good! The salad was very good as well with goat cheese and nice mix of greens. Jo's went a little off the rails with the mushrooms on her burger patty only being partial cooked and being crisp rather than tender. The mushrooms also came back to haunt her again with the risotto as for some reason they incorporated the mushrooms into it in large slices (like on the sandwich) which put the risotto out of balance. It was a little to dry a well and should have been creamy. Food & Beverage 3-4.5 Not the most consistent day for Breakneck but the good was very tasty. Their chicken sandwich is now on the top of my list. Jo likely won't try her choice again. Brews were very good as usual. Service 4.5 Service was very good. I really appreciate the no charge on the half glass of my first beer choice, when some restaurants would have just come back saying they were out of the first beer. Atmosphere 4 Breakneck has a warm comfortable atmosphere that is always inviting Price 4 Normally good price for value as their quality is high. I think we just lack on execution of my wife's lunch but that is out of the ordinary. OA 4 A choose especially in COVID as you can relax and enjoy a nice meal indoors. Some entrees are better than others, there are some very good ones. read more

The website said happy hour is 4-7, even listed Thanksgiving times. We went wednesday night before Thanksgiving. Arrive at 6ish. The waiter tells us happy hour ends at 6. I show him the website- he acknowlwdges it, tells me can't change it and then that's that. We literally came to your bar because your website stated it lasted til 7. I feel he could have handled the situation better, but.... Otherwise it was a normal night out at breakneck...good food and drinks. Maybe overpriced for area. read more

THEY SUCK BIG ! My wife made a reservation for 20 to celebrate her mother's 80th Birthday over a week in advance. They call her the day before and say they can only do 2 tables of 10 in separate areas, 15 minutes apart, and with separate waiters. WTF! They then have the nerve to suggest my wife made the mistake of not knowing they could not accommodate a table of 20 read more

Good food, great service but when I asked for tartar sauce for my fish sandwich I was charged 75 cents for a small side container. Come on, seriously? Do better read more

I loved this place, it was super quick to get in and their choices on the menu were amazing, I felt like there was something everyone could like. I got the Cajun pasta and it was amazing! The drinks were really good and the desert was as well! The staff was super attentive to us and any special requests we had. The atmosphere was also amazing! I know restaurants are struggling right now with having full staffing but this place was seriously on it, if they were struggling to hire people you would never know. 10/10 would definitely go again, and plan to! read more

Visited for dinner during the week with a friend who frequents here. We had a great dinner. We went with their famous smoked wings -a dry rub and their fresno honey wings. I also tried their mushroom risotto and their brussel sprouts, which were both smaller dishes. The wings were absolutely incredible. Some of the best wings I have ever had. We all really were impressed with them. The other food items I ordered were good as well, but the wings really stood out as the star of the dinner. Can't wait to come back and get the wings again, and try some of their other menu items! read more

Very good hamburgers and don't miss the shoe string fries. Good selection of tap beers.

Love the lobster tacos and the great happy hour! Bartenders with great attitudes! Casual, fun and friendly atmosphere!

There were 8 of us for Easter Brunch. We all loved our meals and our drinks. The service and atmosphere was superb. So nice not having to cook and do dishes on the holiday. read more

Place was very busy, which for them is good. We were able to get ourselves in line before we arrived. Biggest plus was the draft list. Several decent craft beers on tap. I ordered two at one time, a Brew Gentleman General Braddock IPA and a New Trail Moonlit stout. I like to let my stout warm a little to bring out the flavors, which is why I orders both at the same time. It was a Friday in Lent, so I ordered the fish sandwich. It was a huge portion of fish, however I was disappointed as it was heavily breaded and over cooked. My son order a steak, despite ordering it as medium it came out close to well done. Finally, my wife ordered two apps as a meal. The half flatbread she seemed to enjoy, however the scallop app was a big let down. It came with a whole 2 scallops. She really wished she knew that before ordering. Our server was nice but was also covering the bar. The plus is the beer selection and decent beer pricing, the con, we weren't impressed with the food. We will try again and see if we had an off night. read more

Meals here have been tasty. Like the menu variety. Service can be slow but it is also attentive. A little loud if you eat in the bar area, otherwise relaxing place to dine. read more

The only thing keeping me from giving this a 5 star review was the wait time for the food. We met our friends here on Saturday night. This place is truly a hidden gem! The food is delicious the renovated atmosphere is spectacular - the bar area is cute with enough TV's for the sports enthusiasts. The dining area is small but quaint and nicely arranged. We ordered appetizers - smoked chicken wings and Brussels sprouts. The chicken wings were a hit amongst all of us! The Brussels sprouts were great as well. The waitress did an excellent job keeping our drinks filled! For dinner I ordered the filet! Best steak I've had in a long time! Cooked perfectly! It game with mashed potatoes and asparagus, also very good! The 3 others I was with also enjoyed their meals, portions were reasonable and cost was spot on considering the amount of food and quality we were served! We will absolutely be back! read more

Casual dining with a cool atmosphere. I say cool because it feels very homey when you are there. The staff is great and they always take care of you. Now for the food. I doubt you will ever have a bad meal here. It is not pretentious or trying to be something they are not. Just good food at a good price with a wonderful staff to take care of you I like this place for lunch but it is better for dinner especially on a week night when they are a little less busy. They do get busy so just be aware that during prime time you may have to wait a bit read more

A go to stop for any occasion. Happy hour, brunch dinner or lunch. We love this place and will continue to come back. read more

Breakneck Tavern - Brunch - Bars Near Me - Mars, Pennsylvania

One of the better places on Rt.228. Always friendly and the food is good to great. I will be back for more visits but there is one thing that bothers me, it is the french fries. Instead of being crisp they are wimpy, even McDonalds are better. The last couple of times I just got slaw. I hope the owner/chef reads this. You are a great chef, New Years dinner 2019 was the best meals I have had in years and I will keep coming back hoping to give 100% instead of 95%. Oh Happy Hour one of the best. read more

Went for Mother's Day early dinner and everything was wonderful! The tacos were a huge hit and the lobster ones were the best. Will definitely be going back. read more

Our first visit to this amazing restaurant. So many food choices, extensive beer menu and excellent service. The interior and exterior building design is modern with outside patio seating. We had the walleye entree, corn and bacon risotto as an appetizer. Unbelievable beet salad. Unique and delicious desserts. This will be our favorite restaurant September 2020.. I will not be returning to this restaurant. This place "had" dedicated and hardworking staff. Sad to see them gone... See June comments below. JUNE 2020 The coronavirus has changed all of us personally and professionally, but the owner of Breakneck Tavern fired all his loyal, hardworking staff. That is his decision. The problem I have is, he hired a new staff and paying them lower wages? Will not be a cu read more

Ordered the Cajun crab pasta (with shrimp instead of crab) and the wild mushroom burger. Food was brought to our car immediately after we arrived. Pasta serving was giant and delicious- perfectly creamy and peppery. The shrimp were HUGE. Wild mushroom burger was amazing (according to my brother) and came with a generous portion of fries. Would definitely eat here again. read more

Breakneck Tavern - Cajun Blue Crab Pasta - Bars Near Me - Mars, Pennsylvania

This place is going down in quality. I ordered a prime rib medium rare and got a curled up well done steak. I asked for it to be redone and then received blue raw steak. My brother's risotto looked like cooked white rice that corn and bacon was added after the fact. What happened to this place? This was on a Saturday night no less. I emailed the restaurant to find out if it was a bad night and got no reply. Very sad, I loved this place and this is the second time my food order was not up to previous standards. read more

For our area this is some of the best food available. The beer selections are wide as are the drink options. The beer selections can be more of the mid road brewers. I realize they are trying to appeal to the masses. Would like to see them draw some of the highest quality craft brews in the country to go along with the great local options. The service is great and they have really good bartenders. read more

Attitude sucks. Service sucks. Everyone that works here will not make eye contact, so they don't have to wait on you. All of the urinals were out of order in the men's room. Wow! Ordered takeout and wanted to grab a beer while I was waiting and the hostess said they were too busy and I couldn't sit at the bar that had 8 open seats read more

A favorite of ours! Great atmosphere and even better food. The eichner farm chicken is delicious and a yummy cider is always on draft!

Ordered two dishes to go. Crab linguine and Scallops. Both were very good and ready when I arrived to pick them up. The risotto was a little under cooked and the green beans lacked flavor but the scallops were perfect. I'll order again. read more

Terrific food, service and chef. The menu regularly updates with new delicious selections, but retains the dependable favorite staples.

Food is always great. Like that menu changes. The lobster mac and cheese is amazing! Great burgers. Nicely crafted cocktails. Has a southwestern slant to the food - some heat to some dishes read more
