    Tavern Burger
    Brian M.

    I came here after attending a off road event at Hamilton Farm, the US Equestrian Team Headquarters in Gladstone, We were looking for a quick simple meal. The Gladstone tavern is a cozy restaurant, we had great service and the food was very good. It's spacious, has ample parking, nice outdoor seating with heaters on the porch. All of the dishes we ordered were excellent. We had the tavern burger and the grilled chicken sandwich. For desert we had the chocolate chunk cookie which is a Jacque Torres recipe. It's warm and very tasty. Our waiter recommended the ice cream toasted coconut, pretzel-chip, it was awesome. They offer a wide variety of salads, entrees, desert, wines, beer liquors. They appear to do a lot of catering and have live music at certain times. This was not a planned visit and I would definitely go back. Everyone wax courteous, the restaurant is very clean, and it looks like it would be a nice place to relax when there is live music. I would definitely recommend them.

    Nice casual spot. Started with the short rib Johnny Cakes which we shared. They were delicious! I had the Korean hanger steak for an entree and my husband the brisket, both were very good.

    This was in an old-fashioned farmhouse with a rustic setting. There was a small bar upon entering and a section in the back for private events it looked like. The menu offered seasonal American comfort food with a few twists sprinkled in. The service was solid, and the food came out in a timely manner. I went with the tavern burger ($22). It was local pasture raised beef that was grounded in house daily with cheddar, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, pickles on a toasted brioche bun with fries. I opted for the burger to be cooked medium rare and it was more on the medium side. Overall, this was okay. The patty was of good size but lacked much seasoning. It helped that the other toppings were present. The fries were very tasty as they were seasoned appropriately and fried to perfection. I also tried the bear sandwich which had braised short rib, cherry pepper, mushroom, onion, and provolone on a garlic toasted roll. This was very tasty. The cherry pepper really made the entire dish I thought. Another item I tried was the chilaquiles. There was something that threw me off here and I believe it was the salsa verde. The people who had this at my table did enjoy it though. Will I go back? Probably.

    Cute porch dining. Gracious host & server. Food spot on with perfect drink of hard cider!

    Buffalo Chicken Salad

    Interesting setting. Looks like a house converted into a restaurant. We sat in the back room on the left just to the right of the fireplace with a window looking into the backyard. Our server was very funny, and I'll say he was about 15% over the top in terms of trying to yuck it up with us. Am sure a lot of people wouldn't have appreciated the constant jokes. My choice was the wedge salad. It was good however, I wish there had been more blue cheese, and it had hardly any red onions so he brought me more which was very nice. The bacon was way overcooked and I like crispy, well-done bacon, however this was well beyond that. It also needed a little more tomato to compensate for the serious dryness of the bacon. It's a decent choice in a small town that doesn't have many options.

    Five stars for the Gladstone Tavern! It's a perfect spot for lunch with friends, dinner with family, or drinks at the bar. It's in a renovated 19th century farmhouse with lots of different rooms. It offers cozy seating spaces, a front and back patio, beautiful wood and stone details, and warm lighting. The food is top notch and the menu is seasonally inspired. I love that ingredients are sourced from individual farms and that herbs are grown in the restaurant's garden. This restaurant is accommodating to diners with specific food preferences and allergies. They made my friend's meal the way she asked for it to be specially prepared due to her food allergies. I've been here a few times and look forward to returning. Staff has been consistently attentive and helpful. I appreciated our server today, Mark, especially. He has an upbeat and friendly way about him and made our lunch extra enjoyable. You can park for free in one of the two parking lots. Dogs are allowed on the front porch dining section.

    On our way home from south Jersey, we were looking for a nice place to stop for dinner. I had Gladstone Tavern bookmarked for quite a while, so it was a good opportunity to stop here. Since it was a hectic day, the first thing I liked is that this restaurant is located in a quiet location with plenty of parking. We made a reservation for outside seating which was perfect on this June evening. The food was very good. My wife especially enjoyed her Chicken Schnitzel entree. I went with the baked pasta special which had broccoli rabe and sausage, my in-laws each had burgers. It took a little while for the food to be served, but that wasn't a problem since it was so nice out. All in all, this was a good find and a perfect spot for us to enjoy dinner!

    Short Rib Pasta
    Thomas C.

    A cozy experience at Gladstone. My party of 3 decided to dine in the bar area on the high tops near the from windows. It's a bit cramped, and I'd recommend just having 2 tables over there than 3. But overall comfortable. The bartender was kind and helped us out in a gracious manner. All of our drinks were great. Though through the night when it got busy, I think there needed to be another bartender to help her out. Someone in the party ordered the split pea soup, and it was delicious! She said "it reminds me of my mother's" so I think that's a great sign. The wedge salad had fresh ingredients and the bacon was unique compared to other wedges with their slab bacon. I ordered the short rib pasta, and gosh it was delicious. All of the ingredients blend together really well. Tender, tender meat with a perfectly balanced sauce. I would've liked the pasta a bit more al dente but still so very delicious. Someone from the party ordered the steak frites, and it was cooked perfectly. The peppercorn sauce was out of this world! The short rib pasta was on a special menu. For dessert, the bread pudding with ice cream! Very sweet of the restaurant to add a beautiful happy birthday message on the plate but the ice cream and bread pudding lacked some flavor - would've love some more coffee and toffee taste from the ice cream and the bread pudding needed some more moisture and cappuccino taste, maybe more sauce? Would love to come back in the summer!

    Just a stop-in after a nice walk, so hungry and thirsty. The flatbread pizza was undercooked and the buffalo chicken salad was just ok. Not really a wide variety of food and no appys but just a big eh for what we had. Service was ok, but you can see, as we sat outside, challenging to have service from inside. Nice outside area though.

    Good chopped salad

    3 1/2 stars! Nice place 2 parking lots (1 was closed so it was a little confusing to know where to park but found street parking no problem!). Interior is very nice, tables are spaced out & they have a lovely fireplace. The bar area tables are small for 4 or more people so we moved to the main dining room but I'd go back to enjoy a drink in the bar. I love the large ice cubes served for bourbon drinks! Service was pretty slow - a table that came in after us got drinks & their order taken - not cool. Drink orders took 15 minutes & the place was not full. Menu is small & eclectic - very unique offerings - wish there were more "normal" things like a chicken sandwich or clams, or even wings for example. Our group enjoyed our food - chopped salad, chips & salsa, shortbread flatbreads, caesar salad, focaccia bread, & brussel sprouts. The food that we did not care for: cheese plate on the special menu - pathetic - 3 different pieces of different types of brie-type cheese & the crab claws - we had to ask for a fish fork - they were miniscule - why bother even offering something like this. I would go back definitely but with the annoyance of a closed parking lot with no sign advising where to park, the service flaws, & some issues with the food, I cannot give this place a 5 at this time but it definitely has potential!

    The service was top notch! The food was amazing. Amazing! They are really doing a fine job during the pandemic. Strongly recommended.

    Amazing pea soup!

    Stirling Tavern is a casual but polished neighborhood bar and grill with a trendy aesthetic and a…read morecozy ambiance; a menu featuring classic pub favorites elevated a notch above your average bar fare with gourmet ingredients; an innovative and seasonally-updated adult beverage program; and attentive and friendly service. The space on the first floor is divided into a lively bar area with plenty of TVs and a slightly quieter main dining room with comfortable booths and tables. There is also seating on an outdoor terrace on the second floor and a few tables in front of the restaurant on South Street if you're up for dining al fresco. It's a terrific option in Morristown that's sophisticated enough for a date on the outdoor terrace when the weather cooperates or a pre-theater meal in the dining room, yet casual enough for beers and appetizers while watching a game in the bar area. The menu captures the essence of modern American comfort food. Whether you're grabbing the Stirling Burger ($18) -- made from a tasty short rib and brisket blend -- or splurging on the Grilled New York Strip ($48) topped with crabmeat fries, the quality is evident. They are also great with dietary restrictions. Between the various poultry, fish, and vegetarian options on the menu and the kitchen's willingness to make moderate accommodations in any other dish, there's something for everyone. What really makes this place stand out, though, is the service. We recently celebrated my niece's 21st birthday here, and our server made it memorable by honoring her milestone birthday by playfully asking for her ID EVERY SINGLE TIME she ordered a drink. It became a running joke for the night and made the occasion feel extra special. The only reason it's not a full 5 stars for me is that both sides of the main floor can get pretty loud when it's packed and the prices are a bit on the higher side for casual dining. We will definitely be back! PRO TIP #1: Stirling Tavern offers a Happy Hour Monday through Friday between 3pm and 6pm, which features specials on certain cocktails, wines, beers, and light snacks. You must be seated at the bar to take advantage of the promotional pricing. If you enjoy a good Old Fashioned, try the JB ($10), made with Four Roses bourbon, blood orange amaro, orange & angostura bitters. PRO TIP #2: Stirling Tavern does not have a private parking lot, but there is plenty of paid on-street parking on South Street or Maple Avenue. Bring change or use the ParkMobile app for the meters ($1 per hour) Monday through Saturday from 8am til 6PM; all street meters are free Monday through Saturday after 6pm and all day on Sunday. If you can't find a spot on the street, paid parking is also available in the Morristown Parking Authority Lot #8 (@ 10 Franklin Street) and Vail Parking Area (@ 110 South Street). FREE on-street parking is located on MacCulloch Avenue, just two blocks from Stirling Tavern.
