Always a good time. Our server was sweet and helpful during our stay. I had the Reuben sandwich with chips and my wife had the salad with chicken as the protein. Both entrees were very good! The ambience is very relaxed and you never feel hurried during your stay. If on Biltmore property take time to try Cedric's even if for just a draft beer! read more

Great place. Hours listed here on Yelp aren't correct - they're open for dinner. Where do I start? Myles was wonderful- very professional & attentive. Our party of ten enjoyed everything we ate. From cocktails to appetizers to entrees to dessert. Notable: the pickles appetizer is very good!!! I was surprised. read more

There was an hour wait but we were able to snag a few bar seats. Bar seats and high tops are first come first serve. We started with a jar of the house pickles. They were good, and it was a lot of pickles for 2 people! I had a salad which was great, but I had food and envy wishing I had ordered the spring pasta that my friend had. I had a taste and it was really good and unique! read more

Second visit to this restaurant. Went there for early anniversary dinner. Loved it. Staff is very nice and accommodating. Wife was craving the Fisk a chips and was not disappointed. I got the pork burger and was very pleased. ( napkins required). Good food. Good local beverages. Can't go wrong with this place. read more

We had a lovely experience at Cedric's! Our dog was with us, so we sat out on the patio, sipped on wine, had some great food (try the Shepherd's Pie), and were thrilled to also be given grilled chicken for our pup! We highly recommend booking a table on the patio if it's a nice day. read more

Stopped here on our way home coming from Cherokee. We didn't have a reservation so we ended up in the outdoor seating area. Our server made a point to focus his attention to my boyfriend which I found quite odd. Perhaps that is the vibe here? Not sure. The tomato soup was absolutely amazing! We split a bowl, but I could have easily eaten it alone. The mushroom toast was also different yet delicious. The reuben was just okay as the bread was a bit soggy & there were some fatty inedible pieces in the corned beef. I'm happy we got to experience the beauty of the Biltmore, but most likely won't be back due to the pricing grounds admission prices. read more

Cedric's Tavern in Antler Village, is named in honor of the Vanderbilt's beloved dog. There's a statue in front commemorating him, as well as family photos inside. As beloved as he was, his namesake doesn't guarantee an outstanding meal at this popular eatery. We had dinner reservations for 6:30, and we were seated in a spacious booth near the back. The pretzel rolls with mustard butter and chicken soup (tasty and very thick) were nice starters. My fish and chips plate was not satisfying. Though served very hot, the fish was quite brown (over fried?) and chewy. The fries were neither hot nor crispy. Overall, this was very disappointing. My companion pronounced their salad Just ok. The atmosphere is cozy and comfortable, our server was prompt and friendly, but I had higher expectations for our meal. read more

Extremely friendly and fast service, great setting, and delicious food. However, the portion sizes were really small for the price.

Cedric's Tavern was one of my favorite places to eat at the Biltmore. I liked the relaxed atmosphere and the everything on the menu looked really good. I wasn't too hungry so just got a soup and salad. They were able to split an entree salad across two people and it was still a good size portion. Definitely recommend a reservation because the wait was impossibly long if you didn't plan ahead! read more

I'm not sure if they seat people without reservations but I'd definitely recommend having one. Even though it's a a "tavern", it's family friendly, which I would expect at a touristy spot. There are a few tvs for those wanting to enjoy a drink and a game, but the tvs are small. My extended family of 9 had a 4pm reservation the day after Christmas and didn't pay and leave until 5:30, cutting it close for our 6pm tour of the Biltmore House. Our server was knowledgeable and pleasant but the kitchen was slow. Our family had a regular burger (comes with double patties), a pork burger, fish and chips, shepherds pie, chicken wings with buffalo sauce, and a couple of kids meals (corn pups and grilled chicken tenders). Everyone enjoyed their burgers although there were some complaints of the buns being too crispy. My husband said the fish and chips weren't that great. I personally enjoyed their shepherds pie although it could've used more lamb. My son liked his chicken wings but it's barely dressed with the buffalo sauce, we had to ask for a side cup. The prices are fair for what you get. We also enjoyed local beers, ciders, and a mocktail. read more

The food here was AMAZING. The only bad thing about the pretzel rolls is that there were not enough with the order. I will apologize for the dessert picture, more did come with it, just forgot to take the picture when it arrived. The burger was really tasty and juicy. The service was really good as he was a great server, always on point. It was a really good atmosphere in there as well. 2025-19 #570 read more

Absolutely loved this place! Of course we found it while staying at the village hotel but the food was delicious! I got the pub burger which was 10/10 and if I'm not mistaken a lot of the ingredients are grown on the estate. My girlfriend got the lobster roll which was pretty pricey but still very delicious and filling nonetheless. For anyone into Old Fashioned's I highly recommend the Biltmore Cardamom Old Fashioned. I warn you it is $25 but to be honest it was very much worth it. Overall, loved the place, not sure if it's worth the price but you are technically paying for the location. read more

Start with saying the service was excellent and the best part of our experience. We sat outside and it was uncomfortable but no other area was available as it was end of day. Food was ok the fish and chips were bland both the fish and the chips. Burger was good but again the fires were too plain and floppy. read more

We ate lunch here on our second day at Biltmore. It was our favorite restaurant on the property. My son loved the fact it was themed after the Biltmore pet. Our waitress was really good. She made excellent recommendations and answered our questions. We started with the pretzel rolls. They were delicious and we enjoyed the mustard butter it came with. My son dropped one of the rolls and the waitress was sweet enough to bring him a replacement. Their menu is seasonal so I was able to enjoy a spring pasta dish. The pasta dish was amazing and I was glad I added Scottish salmon. The salmon was perfectly cooked and had a crisp crust. My son loved the cheeseburger and fries. They brought him a brownie and ice cream since it was his birthday. The dessert was also really good. I would highly recommend coming to the tavern and you can make reservations to make sure you don't have to wait. read more

We are staying at the Village Hotel and enjoyed walking around the village before dinner. The interior is comfortable with a lovely outdoor patio. I was curious about the steak special with Biltmore beef topped with a caramel/wine reduction and an olive, parsley, pomegranate salad. It was a delicious inventive combination! I wasn't as excited about the PB&J tart because the angel food cake was a little dry and the peanut butter didn't help. The rest of my party enjoyed the shepherd's pie, orecchiette, and pasty. The chocolate cake looked to die for, and the peach tart was tasty! The staff was very friendly and accommodated a mushroom allergy. read more

The service was outstanding. We did have a 15 minute wait even at 3pm but it is the only restaurant open before dinner. Food was good but not great. Biggest issue - this place allows dogs inside. And not service animals, either. There was one at the table next to us and another one barking his head off several booths away. Would not go back for that reason. read more

We walked up at 2 on a Wednesday and had a 20 minute wait. Plan accordingly. I had the Shepard's Pie- usually a favorite. This however was not the best. It was warm, not hot. I almost sent it back. It was average in the flavor department, and I'm surprised by all of the positive reviews for it. My wife had the fish and chips- they were good. I had a bean and beet soup and that was pretty good, I was surprised it wasn't beet colored. The service was good. read more

The food was fantastic, and the customer service was exceptional. I ordered the Shepherd's Pie, which, at first glance, seemed like a small portion, but it turned out to be more than I could finish. Our server, Catherine, was very attentive to our needs. When we ordered, she informed us that our food would be out shortly. Within minutes, she brought us a basket of soft pretzel rolls to apologize for the delay in our meal. If you find yourself at the Biltmore Estate, plan to stop in at Cedric's Tavern. read more

We loved the whole Biltmore visit as we spent a day and a half there but a great highlight with phenomenal food was Cedrics Tavern there on the grounds near The Village Inn. They served the best fish and chips we ever had and really did a great job with great service. Our friends split the Rueben sandwiche and loved it. The ambiance was top rated as they had super outdoor and inside dining. We loved the outdoor dining. read more

Great location in Antler Hill Village. In the summer months your meal here may be enhanced by the live band in the central village square. Interior and exterior dining options are available. The vegetarian selection is a bit too limited for my taste, but everything I've tried has been very good. The pretzel rolls with mustard butter are fantastic. Service is consistently superb. Dogs are allowed on the patio. Cedric's is a relaxing and worthwhile way to finish up your day at Biltmore. read more

Cedric's Tavern holds a special place in my heart. My husband and I had our first date there, we took our children there on their first trip to Biltmore, and it has become a place to celebrate special occasions in our family. The ambience is delightful. The Irish pub + sports bar + old-fashioned kitchen is splendid. The people who work at Cedric's are so kind and personable. The food is delicious. My personal favorite is the fish and chips! read more

Stopped in after our house and garden visit. Staff were super (our waitress, Ina, was amazing!) we ordered the sausage roll which was delicious and the mustard was so good that we purchased a jar of it! I ordered the pork burger which was out of this world, and my husband had the fish and chips. He said it was good but a bit too greasy. He also got a flight of locally brewed beers. read more

I'm not sure if I expected more because of the reviews , but didn't find Cedric's food to be more than a 3/5. I got the fish and chips, the fish was good but the fries were soggy and/or greasy from the fish on top. The restaurant itself had an "Old School feel" as someone mentioned, but I felt it was just old in need of a refresher. The service was good, but did not stand out. It's always tricky when reviewing places located in a tourist attraction...you are limited in choices and it's difficult to find an exceptional meal. Probably would eat BEFORE I went to the Biltmore next time. read more

Stopped in for food with my boys. A nice enough place with lots of space, a big bar, lots of dark wood, but lit up well enough that we could see. We were thirsty and got the kids sodas while the adults had beverages... mine was non alcoholic. The bartenders were cool, friendly and courteous... We decided to eat here and they gave us tables in the bar area. When we got the menu it was filled with "specialty" foods. Everything had a twist or something different to it. There really wasn't anything for the kids and the prices were really high. We just were not feelling it. We decided to pass... just not what we wanted. I'm sure the food is good... the place is nice... but after all day at the Biltmore we wanted something just simple and hearty. By the way there is a good BBQ truck that smells wonderful just outside... read more

I was not impressed.. the restraunt is clean, dark, (hard to read the menu at night) The Brie app was good. I had the bison burger. I ordered it medium. It came out rare with a bun toasted until it was hard. The fries were also overcooked. My wife liked her halibut. I will not order the bison burger here again. We had to ask for lemon to put in our water several times before they brought any. If you are looking for fountain soda other than cola or sprite, this is not the place. I may return and try the lunch menu. read more

I returned to Cedric's in Antler Hill Village. They have inside and outside seating. The atmosphere is lovely with the darker tones and relaxing setting. The service was friendly and attentive as well. I ordered the fish and chips and it was delicious. The prices are much higher here than other restaurants for the same quality. So keep that in mind if you eat on the estate. read more

In a hot day having a cool tavern is a welcome oasis from the humid and searing heat. Cedric is a perfect example of what a comfortable and inviting place to rest and enjoy a good meal. We weren't quite peckish but wanted to taste their fare so we decided to order their appetizers. The calamari and wings were great! The pale and ginger ale drinks were wonderful in relieving the thirst after a long morning walking around the village and the Biltmore estate grounds. The service was quick, attentive and accommodating. So here are my scores for the items served The wings were an A-. The calamari were an A- as well. The beer was a solid A! Service was an A+. We look forward to visiting this place again! read more

Cedric's Tavern is in a cute area of the Biltmore property called the Antler Hill Village and Winery. It has a good size outdoor seating area, inside, and nice size bar. It was packed, so we had a 30 minute wait. Our server Tom was great. We had some wins, some misses, and some flat out losses. First up they brought 4 waters and there was about 4 ice cubes in each. I don't understand why restaurants are getting so greedy with the ice! (Loss). Next up the jar of pickles came. Best fresh house made pickles I've had. Crunchy. Vinegary and full of flavor. (Win). Next up our cauliflower with beer cheese. It was served cold. Under seasoned and hardly any of the cheese sauce. (Miss). A runner brought us a bowl of the beer and bacon almonds. We hadn't ordered them but since she had set them down she left them. Salty with a touch of sweetness. (Win). Our final app was the baked Brie. Described as mini baked Brie until bubbling... our Brie was the opposite of bubbling, it was cold. And the crostinis were also cold, not buttery or toasted and borderline stale. The cranberry pistachio compote was good. (Loss). The last of the food that I had was the pork burger. Something I've never had before and would never make at home. It was described as a blend of estate-raised pork, bacon and roasted garlic, topped with Irish Cheddar, Guinness mayo, sauteed sweet onions, and pickle chips, served with a side of Tavern chips. The tavern chips were ice cold. And had zero salt on them. I don't know if all of our cold food was the chefs fault, the expediter, or the runner but it was an issue. An issue that we didn't complain about so shame on us for not speaking up. The pork burger was good. Seasoned, warm, and served on a buttery toasted bun with a good amount of the Guinness mayo. I did pull almost all of the sautéed sweet onions off because there was too many. (Overall plate was a win/miss). Feedback from my friend's on their food: Pub Burger, awesome. fish and chip; fish was greasy but fries with malt vinegar was good. Wedge salad good minus the cherry tomatoes. (It's not tomato season yet). My Oh George cocktail was Crown Royal, Grand Marnier, and ginger ale. It was a good sipping cocktail. Overall it's a nice spot inside the Biltmore property to dine. We'd all go back. I would just be more vocal about the cold food if that was the case again. read more

Biltmore is such an experience. To be able to wander through this little village and find this gem was a blessing. It has a cool Irish pub vibe. Dark wood and tributes to the Vanderbilt's dogs. Don't miss Cedrics collar in the entry. You won't believe it. Comfortable seating and excellent service!! Fun and delicious cocktails and a full bar. Food is fantastic!! I had a salad that was 100% sourced from the estate and it was incredible. Shepherds pie and fish n chips better than we had in Ireland.... Don't miss this spot on your visit to Biltmore!! read more

Cedric's Tavern is a VERY well run, clean, pub style restaurant near the Biltmore. And yes, CT's backstory and decor all align well. Props to CT's GM, floor managers, and servers. Tim/Tom (apologies) was always one move ahead of our needs; we made it a point to compliment him. Cedric's Tavern's bar food well reflects the atmosphere, Biltmore vibe, and price point. The ONLY thing we'll ask for is more sauce on the Sloppy Joe. Burgers, Fish and Chips, and other bar food options (as well as plate presentations) were exactly what you'd expect at this style tavern. The patio vibe was chill and the (needed) fans will keep you cool in the summertime. Great experience. We look forward to our next family Biltmore outing and CT lunch. read more

So far so good.... This is our first time dining at this restaurant and we are waiting on our food at the moment. We ordered for the kids when we sat down, so they are already eating. The service has been great and very accommodating. The kids love their food! They both ordered the Grilled Cheese. We just got our food and it looks amazing! Paused to enjoy our meal. We finished our meal! The dining experience was great overall. The staff were very friendly and hospitable! We enjoyed our food. I had the cheeseburger with fries. The burger was perfectly cooked and was paired with cheddar cheese. Our dining neighbor (the table next to us) strongly suggested we try the corn dog bites, so we ordered some. They were good, but not over the moon amazing as the people next to use led us to believe. The atmosphere was casual and relaxed, just what we needed after a few hours of walking around the Biltmore Estate. I read and appreciate the reviews provided by others, but as always my reviews are based on my experience. Hope this is helpful. read more
