I liked this place, but there are some caveats. To call it a German restaurant is really a stretch. Yes, there are some German entrees on the menu, but they are not the heart of the menu. Food is tasty, service is very good, and it sports a really cool decor. It is a relaxed atmosphere with casual food and good beer selection. Highly recommended. read more

Son and his girlfriend were here for a visit and after endless debate on where to go for dinner, Devil's Acre Tavern was the choice. This used to be called Devil 's Half Acre, so not sure why the name change. We did notice that there were also some menu changes. We've been to this restaurant probably about five times in a two year period so we are not regulars but we are familiar with the tavern, it's menu and the general atmosphere. We started our meal sharing a large order of chicken wings ($16) which was plenty for the four of us. We went with the hot and spicy, one notch below their hottest wings...they had just the right amount of heat. A good choice to start the meal. Our entrees were all deemed from acceptable to really good. The Fish and Chips was the least successful of the entrees. The waffle fries arrived soggy, the fish was crispy with a pretzel coating but it was numerous small pieces...almost as if they were the Fillet scraps. I had the crab cakes which were excellent, two cakes (ate 2 brought the second one home) served over crisp green beans and roasted beets. $22. The hit for our fingers was the crab and kielbasi Mac and cheese. Served piping hot with a bread crumb topping. It's a large serving and totally filed up a strapping 24 year old male. The final entree was jambalaya which was pronounced "good"...nothing more was send. Our waiter was attentive and pleasant. The Fish snitzel is no longer on the menu (my favorite -and which I had planned to order). We had our choice of which room to dine in, we choose the room with the bar and tvs so the men could watch the two football games that were on. This was our first time there on a Sunday nite ands of you don't like crowds this is a great time to go. Every Friday and Saturday seems to be packed. Dinner as described with one iced tea and a liter mud of Octoberfest ($12) came to $114, $135 with tip. read more

Not real German food , green ( spinach ) Spatzels not heard of . Great German Beer. Pricey for what you get. Very loud !!

My husband and I stopped in for lunch this weekend with our two toddlers. I ordered the Reuben sandwich which was very good. My husband ordered the burger special and was disappointed due to his burger being way over cooked. The biggest let downs were the "kid meals". We ordered a hot dog and mac and cheese. The mac and cheese was okay but the hot dog was so burnt that my daughter wouldn't touch it. The biggest shocker was the cost of the kid meals. The Mac and cheese was $11 and the hot dog was $9.50 !?! We eat out very often with our kids and I have never seen such expensive meals so poorly made. Needless to say, we will be crossing Devil's Acre off our list of places to eat out. Definitely not kid friendly and way over priced for over cooked food. read more

Went here a couple weeks ago, and I have to say this place left a good impression on me! I tried the Bacon Brulee dessert and although I was hesitant to try it, I'm glad I did. Also had one of their sandwiches (I forgot what it was called), but the dessert was more memorable to me. read more

Being german i could not wait to try. Great selection of beer on tap tried the schnitzel just ok meat platter much better maybe they need more practice?? read more

I went there about 2 months ago for dinner. I had the pork shank which I liked. My fiancé had a steak with spinach and whoa was it salty. We informed the server of the over saltiness. Drinks were a bit pricy. Service was good. Probably go back but for beer and maybe try an appetizer. read more

An out-of-the-way surprise! Glad I found this place for dinner tonight. Good service, good food, good beer. Can't go wrong here. If you're in middle-of-nowhere Pennsylvania. Wish they had one of these in Ashburn, Virginia. Would have been such a skyscraper up from At Kaiser. Please open another Devil's Acre in NoVa!!! :) read more

I recently had my first experience at this restaurant. It's a very unique place with a cool decor. The drinks were excellent as was all of our meals. Service was friendly and in point. I will definitely be going back to try different offerings. Would recommend this restaurant for sure. read more

My husband and I were here, the beer was great and we had a fantastic dinner. I had the wurst of the day and spaetzle and sauerkraut my husband had roast beef with cheese and fries. The waitress gave us a lot of info on the food. The apple strudel looked fantastic but I was to full. I would recommend it read more

Pretty good! A unique German themed restaurant with a great craft beer selection and fresh homemade meals. Also reasonable priced. But kind of in the middle of no where. read more

Food was good but wish they had more then a German selection on the menu. Can't say service was quick but giving the benefit of the doubt they are new. read more

There aren't many restaurants like this around Doylestown. It's kind of hipster/German. It was delicious. The service was spot on, friendly and attentive. We went for brunch and can't wait to go back for lunch or dinner. Excited to have this restaurant nearby! read more

I have been here a few times so far, and for the most part, I have been very impressed! A few things to consider when you go... - The sausage and Schnitzel platters are BIG. My wife and I split a Schnitzel platter (which came with 2 sides) and it was plenty of food - The trotter app is fantastic, highly recommended - The cocktails are boozy and delicious - The beer list is great. Decent IPAs and sours along with a few good local offerings. The bartenders are friendly and knowledgeable and the servers have been wonderful. Apart from an unfriendly hostess one night and the plain pork Schnitzel being underwhelming, we have been very happy with our experience. read more

So, my wife has grown up in the area this place is located in, and has never been. We decided to finally go check it out one night. It was a little noisy and crowded, as you would expect of a tavern. The prices were a little higher than I would have guessed, and thus set the expectatoins of the food fairly high. The atmosphere was nice, decore was neat. It was clean and our server was very friendly. The dissapointment was the food. We order the pretzel nuggets, and while the cheese sauce was excellent, the pretzels themselves were so hot you couldnt even pick them up. On top of that, four out of the around 6 "bites" we got were burnt so badly the steak knife they gave me for my Prime Rib wouldn't cut through it compleatley, and i dropped a portion on the floor. My wife ordered Crab and Kielbasa mac and cheese, and it was so dry and full of bread crumbs that it was almost inedible. Litterally half the boat they served it in was Panko bread crumbs. Cost, $17. The prime rib that I had ordered came out, SWIMMING in Aus Jus. Every time I attempted to cut my prime rib, aus jus splattered everywhere. Now I spent 20 years working in the restaurant business, and I have never seen aus jus just dumped on a plate, or a guest served a burnt bread item. Cost of my aquatic Prime Rib? $26 I see many good reviews of this place, but honestly I feel like if you were looking for a Happy Hour bar, this place would be great. If you wanted to enjoy a quality meal, maybe look else where. I know for the cost to quality ratio, my wife and I will never return to this establishment, nor would I ever take an of my out of town friends or other Restaurant owners here. The way the food is served is embarrassing. I could go on about a few other things as a life time food service manager I saw that I wasn't thrilled about, but, they are minor things compared to what I've already been over. Keep your expectations low on this place, and you may not be as dissapointed as we were. read more

Nice little gem in Plumsteadville. I have driven by many times and often remarked how I wanted to stop in. Finally on one of the coldest nights of the year, my girlfriend and another friend found ourselves dining on some wonderful brats, burgers, and goulash. Our server Josh not only took care of us and made us feel at home but also was charming and entertaining. Great local restaurant in an area that's over run with Italian places. Well worth the stop in if you want something different. Oh yeah, don't forget to get the devil sauce barbecue wings. Those babies rocked! read more

Food was fabulous! We had the sausage sampler, everyone loved it! I had the crabcake which was delicious and added the sweet potato fries 'cause I was craving them! I had the Plumsteader drink fresh squeezed lime juice - so refreshing! Can't believe the transformation in this location from its previous life! Our waitress was also very attentive. Was surprised by how busy they were as they have only been open a little more than a week. read more

Really like this place, since they've adapted their menu from opening. It's not all German. It's delicious. Try the Tots and The Kielbasa dip. Soooo good. Great beer choices too. read more

It's a sign: The kale caesar used to be fabulous but recently they are slipping. Ditto for the wings and other menu staples. We took our friends to brunch there and the skillets were barely discernible from each other--flavors were blah and lacking. Being locals, we love that they are busy and we want them to keep it that way. We are rooting for your success--please get back to your original great quality. read more

We have stopped here several times. The bartenders are always very friendly. I've tried most of the beers on tap and I have to say they are just ok. Couldn't find a favorite so that will limit my visit frequency. I love the food! We have had multiple meals and every one has been awesome. If you want a American beer to be aware that you will get it in the can. The place is quite a difference from the dive bar it used to be. Clean and a nice place to stop for an app. read more

Really great food. Nicely renovated decor. The grapefruit radler brings me back! I enjoyed the roast beef on week...the roll makes this an amazing sandwich. read more

A little pricey, but GOOD FOOD and a great beer selection. The kielbasa dip was awesome. It's a different selection from your typical restaurant...and a great spot! read more

Stopped in for dinner, food and service were good. Interior design is very nice. Got a bit loud, between the music and guests talking, but totally bearable. Food prices on the high side, however I'm sure we'll be back read more

Really enjoyed this place, as a change of pace from our normal go to spots. Food was great, and the beers were excellent. I had the Wurst sampler, boy was that a lot of meat. It was served with sauerkraut and spicy mustard. Would definitely go back again in the future. read more

Had dinner tonight, waited an hour and half for food. Waitress never once came back to the table, service was AWFUL and food was not great! DON' T WASTE YOUR MONEY or TIME!!! read more

My husband and I have officially made this our go to spot for when we go out to dinner. We went here because it replaced a bar we used to frequent so we figured why not give it a try and we are glad we did. I had the braised chicken as my entree and can't really find the words to describe it because it was that good. My husband had the hot dog as his entree that had "the best mustard he's ever had in his life" on it. We had the apple strudel for dessert which was equally as awesome as everything else. Good craft brew selection, not a fan of beers that are too hoppy and the waiter was really helpful in my beer selection. It's very clean and the atmosphere is very comfortable and they play pretty good music. read more

Great atmosphere, good pub food. Service could be a bit better, but then, we were there on a busy Saturday night, so I'll cut them some slack. Altogether, a very nice experience! read more

Really good steak fries and good kielbasa dip. Nice feel inside, but kind of cold. The beef on weck is good but you might want to ask for a little extra au jus on the side. read more

The service is amazing, the drinks are perfect, and the food is worth every penny. The braised short ribs are phenomenal!!!!! This is one of the best restaurants I've been to in the area and i would recommend it to anyone!!! read more

My husband and I came last night for a quick bite before a movie. The place is lovely - beautiful decor. The beer selection is spot on and their radlers (a beer/soda mixture) are delicious. He got a burger (he's picky - he really liked it) and I got the roast beef sandwich that was on an amazing salted/seeded roll. Everything was delicious and the server was wonderful. Looking forward to coming back for a German dinner. read more

Their Schnitzel is just a deep fried piece of pork. I can make better at home and will from now on. Wanted to give the new place a try, Glad I did. Now I don't have to go again. Food is pricey. You better enjoy German beer, because that is basically your choice. Service was friendly though. I say try it for yourself. read more

Saturday, April 22, 2017. Drove 35 minutes to try this place on the recommendation of friends. YUGE disappointment. Here's my tale of woe.... ordered cocktails... Bloody Mary was awful. Whatever it is they use for their home made Bloody Mary mix, they missed the mark(I think the addition of Olive juice was a mistake as it made the drink bitter). My wife ordered the Wurst & Sausage platter... 2 links of their sausage of the day(hot Italian sausage stuffed with Fontina cheese) and 2 links of Kielbasa. What arrived was 3 links of Italian sausage and 1 Kielbasa. We brought this to the attention of our server, showed her the platter and she confirmed it was incorrect. She asked if she could bring another link of Kielbasa and we said "yes, please". After an inordinate amount of time, she returned and said, "The chef said he delivered the platter personally and the order was correct"; basically, calling us liars. Irritated, we asked the server to bring the plate back to show the chef. After another unusually long time(admittedly now I am getting pissed), she returned, without the returned platter, without anything, except the check that I requested. We asked to speak with the chef. After ANOTHER long wait, she returned and said the chef would be out in a while as he was busy in the kitchen. We asked to speak with the manager. ANOTHER long wait... the manager comes to the table with an attitude saying he was tired of this matter and the server was crying?!?! Told him that our meal was ruined and that we would pay for the apps and the cocktails($48.79), but not the entree's. His response... if we don't pay for my entrée(they removed the Wurst Platter) he was "going to call the cops". At this point, I was irate!!! My wife, being the diplomat, explained everything that occurred, step-by-step, He said he was going to discuss this with the chef and left our table. Another longggggg wait, and the server returned with a check without the entree's charge. The "manager" never returned to our table to apologize, or attempt to make any amends. I sincerely hope that the owners of this establishment read this post and look into the deplorable service and attitude of the "manager". This guy needs to go to some classes on how to treat customers. I felt like I was on American Airlines! I will NEVER patronize this establishment again. read more

Went there last night with my wife and another couple. Place was packed but we had a reservation and got there a half hour early. Waited at the bar and tried some of the German beers. Got seated 15 minutes early. Pork schnitzel was a large portion and so good I ate the leftovers when I got home. Wife had the beef short ribs and she loved them. Wings were good. Service was good. Probably one of the best drinking and dining experiences I have had in a while. We will be back! read more

Best pork schnitzel we've had since Germany and the spaetzle was delicious as were both appetizers (tots and eggrolls). Great beer selection. My first visit was last month with husband and 22 year old son (the one we were visiting in Germany) and then last week with 2 girlfriends. There are probably 60 restaurants between my home and Devil's Acre but the atmosphere and food is worth the trip.The only reason I did not give it a 5 is the noise issue. We had a very difficult time on the second visit hearing each other as our table was right in the midst of the dining area whereas the first time our table straddled the dining room and the bar area. Noisy or not, heading back in 2 weeks with the other son in tow. read more

Been coming here off-and-on since opening week. Really unique beer selections. Entrees are bountiful but I found the salad appetizer to be on the small size. read more

We had an excellent dinner last night. The six of us all had various dishes and were very pleased. I had the wild boar/smoked tomato/mozz link - excellent! The spinach spaetzle was also excellent. Terrific German beer selection. Service was spot on. Will return! read more

Friendly staff. Great German beer selection as well as a few locals. I've had a few things off the menu and everything has been delicious and well portioned. The spaetzle is amazing! Clean and sharp all around. read more

Great food and drinks all around. Service was great I enjoyed the beef schnitzel with spatzel and braised cabbage. The beef was so tender and delicious. Great new addition to plumsteadville will defentily be returning. read more

Very limited, expensive menu. Staff is hit and miss. We had a pleasant waitress. Bartender was rude to young couple seated at the bar. Guy appearing to be manager (or boss's kid) didn't help any of staff when needed - just made comments while drinking at bar. read more

Good food and good service. The ambiance could be improved if they separated the "sports bar" area from the dining room with either a wall or at least remove the televisions in the dining portion of the restaurant. I found that annoying. read more
