    Are second visit. This time I made reservations. Glad I did because it got very crowded! I had THE WORKS pizza and the wife and her mom had white and sausage personal pizzas. We really like the pizza!! The service was very good. Food came out very fast. We also had a very good IPA on tap. We are looking forward to coming here again soon.

    If it wasn't for Yelp and maybe the more modern sign outside I would never think to try this place. In other words, it looks like nothing from the outside. Coming in the place is cozy, the menu is large, and the beer is cold. Well, it's not only cold, but I have never had beer served in glasses that were so frosty before. Nice job! The CREAM OF BROCCOLI CHEDDAR SOUP that was on special I could have all day long and the FIREHOUSE BURGER - 8oz Pork Bacon Burger with Provolone Cheese, Spicy Minced Pickles, Shredded Lettuce, Topped with Jalapeno Crema on a Brioche Bun, Served with Shoestring Fries was great too. It was interesting that someone mentioned the rum punch 'to die for' in one of the reviews. Though I did not try it I saw it being made. Strange place for such a thing but it seems to have become something they are famous locally for--and if I understood the server correctly it is something that is not always 100% the same.

    Great bar! Traveled pretty far to try the place out and loved it! Out bar tender was very attentive and friendly. The food was flying out the kitchen and our meals were still perfect.

    We stopped for lunch. On a ride planned by a New Jersey born and raised buddy and his wife - we rode some stunningly scenic roads. Sure my list of their errors in planning could fill a small to medium size library but the lunch stop at the Layton Hotel & Tavern was NOT on that alleged list. The menu is large enough and varied enough to require a "Clift Notes" version. So many excellent choices and our group of 13 sampled a wide variety and all I can say is it seemed to erase our "very damp"... some might even say soaking wet morning and our tour of a low hanging cloud. Cold drinks, great service, and cool rustic establishment all tucked into the middle some of the best Mother Nature has to offer. It is easy to dwell on the fun that can fill your life like a great meal with great friends while rolling on two in beautiful surroundings that even rain can't dampen. But it is so much more nourishing to your soul to have happenstance provide the opportunity to help someone in need. Jess we all wish you a speedy and full recovery!

    White pizza with broccoli and tomatoes. Simply delicious.

    This was our first visit back to Layton Hotel, since the virus hit back in March. They are now doing outdoor seating in addition to curbside pick-up. Although we were picking up an order to go, I have to say that Layton has the social distancing done right with the outside dining. There are picnic tables spaced out back and it just seemed so peaceful out there tonight. We plan on coming back and eating al fresco once the summer heat dies down. As for our order, another amazing white pizza with broccoli and tomatoes and an order of baked ziti for my fiancé. He says it's his favorite thing on the menu right alongside the chicken Parmesan.

    Beautiful setting, eclectic menu... short rib on pappardelle.

    What a wonderful surprise! I expected @laytonhotel to be good... after all there are ALWAYS cars in the lot. I expected great bar food... instead I got braised short rib with Guinness gravy over pappardelle! An eclectic menu, great beer selection, lovely location for outdoor dining, friendly and timely service! Oh... the bar food looks great too! Why didn't I try this sooner?!

    Library Lounge at Skytop Lodge feels like stepping back in time in the best possible way…read more From the moment you walk in, everything slows down. Dim lighting, big comfortable leather chairs, bookshelves lining the walls, a fully stocked bar, and historic photos throughout the space create a classic lodge vibe that feels timeless without being stuffy. It is cozy, polished, and incredibly relaxing. The staff is knowledgeable and clearly takes pride in what they serve. The craft cocktails are well made and thoughtful, and if you prefer beer, there are solid options there too. As a bourbon lover, I especially enjoyed their private barrel pick served neat, a real treat and easily a standout pour. This is a perfect pre-dinner or post-evening stop, we have done both, and it works beautifully either way. Dress is slightly casual but leans upscale, and while pricing is a bit higher than average, it feels completely worth it for the setting, quality, and experience. We sank into the chairs, talked story with friends, and lost track of time, which really says it all. If you are anywhere near Skytop Lodge, make sure this is on your list. Plan extra time, you will want to linger.

First off, this is truly indicative of Sussex County--off the beaten path, luscious, green... a dining experience that is elevated because of its location--if you are able to request a window seat, I would advise in doing that because we definitely enjoyed the beauty of the mountains and were entertained by the deer that came to graze right outside of where our table was located. I appreciate the history.. location.. service was quick and pleasant (Tina was our server). Food was decent enough.. we enjoyed the bread--though some parts seemed a little hard--and I recommend putting out salted vs non salted butter. Salad bar has a decent variety. My New England clam chowder was really good. My seafood platter with salmon, scallops, and shrimp was ok. The seafood was a little fishy for me. The cook said he tried his best to get my salmon to medium, but it was more well done. I appreciated that they informed me of their efforts. The shrimp were well done. We skipped dessert.. Would I return? It is super far from us at about an hour and forty minutes away, so because we weren't wowed by the food, it was nice to visit once.

    What a beautiful building and that's all. The potential is limitless…read more My experience today is what should never happen at any restaurant. From the servers lack of knowledge of anything on the menu to the cold food we waited 45 minutes for, this place ranked "the worst place ever" to have a meal at. Even the drinks fell short with lack of flavor and ingredients. The tables are low and the chairs are comfortable, but not the greatest to eat from. Great for drinks and maybe finger food? When the food came we changed seats to a table, which they have a few of. From the moment they served our food cold I could no longer hold my tongue. I asked to speak with the manager and began to tell her my concerns. Her response was unbelievable. "this is my third day here", we don't have a Chef today and all of the staff are new". I said why open then. I really need to preface that. There were four people dining. We all had burgers and fries. One of us had a veggie burger. If you can't serve burgers, hot and fries hot that's a real low bar that you can't seem to get under. I really hope the Owner reads this review and straightens out what's gone wrong here. They removed three burgers from the order as one of our friends was so hungry. He decided to eat his burnt on both sides, veggie burger and he showed this to the manager and she didn't even make a suggestion like let me just take it all off the bill. My wife is not a person that would send stuff back however I am and the couple we were with the wife is the person who would send things back and the husband's more of a I won't come back here kind of guy. Both me and my friends wife post reviews, me in yelp and her on google. Look for her review. This was a truly disappointing experience. we wound up going right down the block to a place that we always dine at and had great burgers and some fish n chips. PS I took the menu pictures before all of this took place and I'm gonna post them anyway.
