    Sweet chili chicken tips
    Brittany L.

    I stopped here for dinner while staying overnight in Lock Haven for work travel after looking at the menu and reviews on Yelp. The place was pretty busy and there was not a single seat in the bar area so I asked the hostess to seat me in a corner somewhere since I was eating alone. My waitress was Brooke and she was energetic, sweet and efficient. She recommended the crab corn bisque soup which I tried and enjoyed. My entree was the sweet chili chicken tips over rice. It had a good flavor and was a large portion. The restaurant had a ton of choices for homemade desserts so I settled on the peach pie. All the food was good and I left feeling overly full.

    To say that your dining options are limited in the Lock Haven area would be an understatement. However, the Dutch Haven tries its best to represent - albeit in a comfort food, home cooking kind of way. When we visit family in the area, a trip to Sunday Brunch is usually on the agenda. The prices are amazing and the food is good enough that you are not gonna want to eat until the next morning. Starting off, you can gets eggs any style, omelettes, pancakes, and some delicious French toast. There is a carving station with ham and turkey, but the star of the carving station is delicious ham gravy - you ain't gettin that at some gastropub in Philly. Overcooked green beans, over sugared candied sweet potatoes, stuffing, extra salty bacon, and hash browns remind you of Grandma's on Thanksgiving and are just part of the buffet. At the far end are sticky buns and other desserts. Someone told me there was a salad bar somewhere, but I was too busy eating meat to go and find it. Definitely check out the Dutch Haven for Sunday Brunch - oh ... And by the way, this belt loosener is going to set you back a whole $9.95 - sweet!

    Went for the first time on a Friday night post Thanksgiving meal. all in all your typical American eatery with a wide variety on the menu. The restaurant is joined: with a bar which lends to the ambience. Wait staff was friendly and cordial and our food was brought promptly considering the large party size. Kids ordered chicken appetizer which they enjoyed, as the individual pieces were actually white meat chicken coated with panko bread crumbs, and they wolfed them down. Just before the meal service the servers brought out bread, which included sliced white bread and cornbread topped with cinnamon sugar, which was quite tasty. I had the Dutch haven steak which was an 8 ounce Angus cut cooked medium, served with fries and house salad. It was cooked perfectly and my only complaint was that it wasn't larger. Wifey ordered chicken mushroom dish which was good also. Kids had the grilled Reuben sandwich and fish and chips special. Both were delicious. When they say the meals come with chips - the potato kind- they will not come from a bag. They will probably be from fresh, thinly cut and fried in their kitchen. I would definitely repeat, it was hard to believe that this place existed and I haven't been. We will see you on Sunday for the brunch there have been reviews on yelp for.

    8-ounce steak and fries, with mushrooms. $8 on steak night. Mushrooms cost extra.

    Food is awful, building is in disrepair, and the restrooms are disgusting. Avoid at all costs.

    Foods bland and mediocre and they don't let you take your leftover wings home, overall just a weird experience.

    Atmosphere, service and food was perfect. So much better than Fox's Cafe. Don't miss out on this dining experience.

    Best restaurant in the area. Good prices for a good made from scratch meal. Corn bread is amazing.

We stopped in basically off a couple reviews and found parking difficult as we don't live in town. You need to park in a lot just off the bridge and then walk over railroad tracks. The side lot I believe is for an apartment building and there are tow signs everywhere, but a welcome door into the establishment? The bartender was very welcoming and the bar has a great view of the Susquehanna river. They have tvs but they are hooked to some Roku thing so you'll never see anything live. They have a decent beer menu, probably bigger than they need. They offer a Sunday brunch menu which looked delicious but we ordered off the regular menu because it was 1pm. I had the crab cake sandwich. Not bad but mostly filler. The homemade chips are a plus. My wife had the shrimp po boy. She loved it. My wife's mocktail was tasty, she said. I get what this place is trying to be and it could be awesome. They have a lot of promotions posted. This reminds me of restaurant/bars on a river or an inlet except they had a dock or marina near by. The drinks were good.
