First time , I had an very good experience. I ordered the Walleye and chips. It was as awesome . Nice batter , excellent steak fries, good coleslaw. I really enjoyed my meal. Other family members had burgers which looked great. My wife had the bone in chicken wings and gave them an 8 , reason was to saucy. She enjoyed them. I'd come back. Good food , service and atmosphere. 10 for me. read more

Patriots Tavern - Awesome steak fries - Pubs Near Me - Stillwater, Minnesota

The food was just fine but it took over 45 minutes after ordering before it arrived at the table. And the onion rings ordered from the starters menu another 15 minutes later. AND the dining room was less than half full. Hard to understand. read more

Food was excellent and delivered promptly. Server was enjoyable and added to a nice dinner.

Was a great little find outside of the rush of downtown Stillwater. I had ribs, my husband had salmon, they were both delicious. The best part was their soup though. Best clam chowder and French onion we have had in ages. Our waitress was very helpful in making a selection as everything sounded wonderful on the menu. read more

Patriots Tavern has great food, service, and atmosphere. It's my go-to spot in the area

Really enjoy patriots tavern. They have great food and a good atmosphere. It's not a very large place so it may be difficult to find seating on a Friday/Saturday evening but that's about the only "downside". I've ordered their wings multiple times and you will not be disappointed with the Mac and cheese. I can't say too much ha bout the service because I've mainly ordered the food to go, but the few times I've sat there I've had no complaints. read more

Food is absolutely amazing. The burgers are top tier and the fries are fantastic. They're thick cut and have a variety of sauces you can order with them. Pizzas are wood fire oven and are delicious. Absolutely love the place. read more

The food was good. The atmosphere was great. They had a folk singer playing the guitar and singing songs, We sat in the back so it wasn't too loud, but we could still hear it. Our waitress was the best part of the whole experience she was very knowledgeable about the food and had a great personality. read more

Really nice new-England style tavern. Having leved there for a few years, I can attest that it looks rather authentic. The food is really good. I have now tried their fish tacos, fish n chips, salmon, and some of their deserts, I can say it's all very tasty. The servers are nice, attentive, and professional. read more

We originally tried to get in a German restaurant, but they were packed so we decided to give Patriots Tavern a shot. At first glance, it kind of looks like a hole in the wall but to our surprise, it was very modern. The good: I asked for the chicken wings to be double baked so they could get a little crunchy on the outside. They were not as firm as what I thought they would be, but they were still quite good. The soy ginger flavor was also delicious. 4/5 The fire cracker burger was cooked perfectly with a little pink inside. The bread was nice with a firm texture. The Bad: The fire cracker burger was not as hot as what I thought it would be. Other burger joints with jalapeños are on the hotter and scorching side. It would be tough for me to get this burger again. Also, fries are extra and not included. kind of a bummer. 2.5/5 read more

Our first visit went fine and we will try them again. You can't always decide what you think with one meal. I had the lobster roll but wasn't a big fan of the cold lobster salad filling. I don't know if they have a lobster and warm butter option, which I like better. Their onion rings were good but a bit greasy. The atmosphere is very comfortable and we had good service. read more

Excellent food, excellent service and encellent selection. Tearsa the bartender is great and we've NEVER had a bad experience in several years of frequenting this restaurant. It's a hidden gem! read more

Another Patriot meal for the win! Try the sirloin dinner with Gorgonzola mushrooms and a fabulous Demi glaze - excellent! read more

The first time I was there my sister-in-law brought me. I had your clam chowder on her recommendation and I must say it was the best I have had. The food was outstanding and our server could not have been more attentive. read more

We used to go here frequently. We've had good food sometimes and not so good other times. They're pricing themselves out of our willingness to go there anymore for what they offer. Most the menu is a la carte. You want fries with your 17 dollar burger, that's extra. It seems like they're happy just serving the local development there no matter what they charge. read more

I had one of the best burgers ever at Patriots Tavern! My husband also enjoyed their clam chowder, it was rich flavor but not too heavy and on the thinner side. We will be back! read more

Food so good it will make you weep! Hands down the best burger I have ever eaten (I had the fungi burger). The beet salad was also wonderful! The vegetables were fresh and colorful and did not disappoint. The server (Chip) we had was top notch! He checked in without being intrusive. He was friendly and accommodating. The ambience is that of a New England tavern with revolutionary war period decor. It's absolutely wonderful and warm. Great place to stop and eat great food and have good conversation. I would highly recommend stopping if you are out this way! read more

The Patriot Tavern is a lovely place to eat. Their food is good. I love their pizzas. But don't under any circumstance sit at the bar. The bartenders are not friendly, attentive or efficient. You get the impression they don't want to be there. If they're the face of your restaurant you need new people. She was the most unpleasant waitress or bartender I have met in the last 20 years. They need to not be in the people business. read more

Excellent food quality, atmosphere, home brew beer and service. Must try! I had the turkey sandwich and onion rings. The onion rings look normal but they taste above normal, so good. read more

This one of those surprise finds. Great place that is a little unassuming but wow. A nice Tavern vibe with good menu. Prices are fair and food really seems homemade. We had the Rueben and the Italian wood fired pizza. Looking forward to getting back when in the area. read more

For sure a hidden gem in Stillwater. Spinach & Artichoke dip is a gift from God. The Beast Burger is a 10/10- just get it. The onion rings are massive. Exceptional service and an outdoor patio! Must check this place out! read more

What an overpriced disappointment. $24 for 5 tiny "Fillet Mignon" steak bites that were tough as leather and definitely not good. Tried to contact them through their website before giving a review... no reply from them. Awful. read more

Great staff. Fun bartenders and a good kitchen. Also a very good location overlooking the Delaware River. Deck dining.

Ordered the lobster Mac. Ale potted beef roast. Side of asparagus and side of buns. The entrees were great! Sides not so much. For $8 got 8 pieces of asparagus. Got 2 buns for $3 which was okay just less than expected. They are always packed and the wait staff does a great job! Wait staff gets 5 stars. Everything else not so much. read more

Burgers are great. Ribs are amazing. The onion rings were better than average. Had the wings they were a little tough. Overall the food is great and the service really makes the place. read more

Love this place despite the cost and the occasionally spotty service. We try to avoid dinner rush when the service seems to be the most problematic. * Pizzas are great although they periodically mess up the toppings * Lettuce wraps are awesome * Pomme Frites are a must order especially with all the sauce options * Salads are large and very good * Soups have always been great * Crab cakes are ok....not lump but ok Service can be slow. Bar is small and some of staff can be less than welcoming. A little pricey but love that it's so close to my house. Full disclosure though...I don't think I'd stop as often if it wasn't so close to my house. read more

Ok! I've always loved this place. Frequent quite a bit actually. However, something has shifted the atmosphere in Patriot's lately. Has Patriot's become the "New Roma"? Food was good but has been better. Service was Meh... sat at a middle booth. Did not know my server or anyone else in the place! Anyways, Hope things can figure themselves out. I've always been a huge fan! Also this is my first review but I think It says alot... read more

I'm not sure what has happened to the place. It's as if they don't even care anymore. We tried to go yesterday evening (2/20/22) and found the doors locked at 8 (the website says they close at 9 on Sundays). We tried again tonight. The guy at the desk (I sure hope it wasn't the manager, because he clearly didn't like being there) didn't greet us. It was 7:50. We asked if we could get a table. He said we could, but the only thing they'd be willing to make us was a burger and fries. We were hungry, and their burgers used to be good, so we said that would be fine. He sat us at a table and took a drink order. When he came back, he told us that they had decided to close at 8 and that if we wanted to eat, we needed to order immediately. Then one of the servers broke out the windex and started cleaning the front door. It felt like we were imposing, so my wife and I went home and popped a frozen lasagna into the oven. I don't know what happened. We live a half mile away and liked having them as an option. It's a shame, really. read more

Great burgers. Friendly service. Reasonable prices. Crowded but easily found seating.

I've been going to Patriot's Tavern for years. It's been one of my favorite restaurants. As a teacher, my lunch break is early. I have always been able to come there at 10:45, just before it opens and get a cup of their famous clam chowder to go. I was always told that was fine, but it might not be hot enough. Last Friday was a different experience. I knocked and finally was greated by an unfriendly man telling me that they weren't open yet. I told him that I've been able to get a cup of soup early because that was my lunch break. He said that they were busy getting ready to open, but finally acquiesced. He grumpily got me my soup. I apologized and said that I wouldn't do it again. Then a woman came in, also early, and sat at the bar and was treated much nicer. Apparently there are different rules for different people. They have lost my business!!! read more

Cute little place! In fact the whole area reminded me like I was on vacation. The little round about area and look of the area reminded me a little colonial area I might walk through on vacation. Met a friend for breakfast and so glad she picked this place for breakfast. We both ordered the pork belly sausage benedict with fresh fruit. It was delicious. The fruit was a nice mixture of blackberries, pineapple, melons and strawberries. The pork belly sausage was delicious. Service was great. Plenty of tables. Booth, tables or high tops. My friend said their burgers are amazing. Will definitely stop back sometime to try one of those. Cute place! read more

: the truffle mayo with all the Toppings was an amazing combo! Honestly, this place is a favorite. It's quiet, classy and still doesn't take itself too serious. I haven't been disappointed yet with the food/drink. People working here are always so nice and they always give a good recommendation when I can't decide. The bloody Marys are also a favorite of mine! read more

Patriots Tavern - TAVERN BURGER - Pubs Near Me - Stillwater, Minnesota

I review and rate Friday fish frys during Lent, 1 - 10 rating scale. I then post my rating on various sites. I always check the resturants's website first. Menu - $22. for Fish& Chips. My bill was $26., four dollars higher. I qustioned the bartenter, condescendingly said "You can't always trust our website" WTH!! Instesd of apologizing and honoring thier website price, she .could care less! Who I asumed was the owner checked the website, said yes it is wrong, did nothing. Definitley not the type of service I will be back for! By the way the fish fry rated 4 out of 10 read more
