The food was so good I couldn't wait to take a photo before eating. The chicken was juicy and flavorful, and the fries were crispy and hot! The staff was super friendly, kind, and accommodating. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The vibe in the restaurant is relaxing and perfect for a chill date night or getting together with friends.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Road trip, Sat., 8/1 to the 33rd Annual African American Festival in Manassas ended up here. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Super small but super cute, super trendy restaurant. We all agree on 2 thumbs up across the board for decor and ambiance. It was giving industrial-NYC-Soho vibes. Quite impressive for Main Street Manassas[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. Timing was everything ... we were too early for the dinner crowd and just missed the lunch rush so the parking Gods were on our side ... we snagged a spot right in front of the restaurant. Stephen was a gracious server / bartender to our wee little party of 3. The beers were cold and the Cadillac Margarita was decent. The Rueben and bbq wings were raved about (especially the bbq sauce ... it was legendary)! Unfortunately, the salmon bites and the pork belly deviled egg appetizers were soooo salty and just not edible. Also $15 was diabolical for the portion size of the salmon bites. (Pic attached) I've paid that for a full bourbon glazed salmon meal with rice and veggies. Not a deal breaker. Would most def return to try other app / entree / summer cocktail options. Looking forward to hearing YOUR opinion. When you go, tell them you saw it on yelp. read more

A fun casual option in the heart of old town, Manassas with delicious burgers, drinks, and a variety of appetizers and light meals. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's rather small inside but sidewalk dining is also available and it's a happening place on first Fridays.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Cute place in downtown Manassas.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Beer selection was decent. Service was good. Food left a little to be desired. I ordered "famous" fried chicken, and it was incredibly dry unfortunately. The mac & cheese also left something to be desired. Sort of seemed like Velveeta cheese poured over the top. Just not enough flavor for a Southern girl. Chicken Cordon Blue was ok, but again not something we would be excited to order again read more

Food and staff here are always amazing! Their burgers are the bomb. We also love their chili and just about anything that Teresa cooks!

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Awesome down-to-earth place with a very homely vibe.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I made the trip to VA for some quality time with my BL who lives about 5 mins away from Public. We decided on brunch and hit this spot. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambiance, service and food were top notch![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] He had the two eggs with bacon, and I opted for the Benny with a hard fried egg (instead of over easy). It was a very delightful experience with everything fresh and hot. Highly recommend and whenever I get to this side of the world, I will be back!!! read more

Came here after rock climbing cause they had some food the kids would eat... [[HIGHLIGHT]]the dining room was empty when we arrived (a few people at the bar) and the server put some tables together for our group of six (three kids).[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It took a while for the server to come (we were ready to at least order apps and drinks right away)... finally took our appetizer order and then disappeared... our chili nachos came out pretty quickly but we had polished off the entire plate before the sever came back to take our orders (two drinks were also empty) before drinks being refilled and an order being taken. We ordered kids grilled cheese, kids burger, kids chicken fingers, salmon frittata, Greek burger, and chicken and waffles... the server opted not to write the orders down which made me nervous based on the inattentiveness of our server... but hoped for the best.... When our food came out it was quite wrong... we ended up with two kids burgers, chicken tenders, chicken and waffles, Greek burger, and veggie frittata... we were missing the grilled cheese and the frittata was incorrect... so we opted to just cancel the frittata and send the incorrect one back because it took so long to try and waive someone down to help correct our order. My Greek burger came out with no tzatziki sauce(and took asking three people to get), the grilled cheese took a while to come out too so we asked for it to be boxed up and our check. I hope this was a one off thing because this place seemed to have a good menu... but based on our experience we won't be back and I can't recommend it as a place for other people. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was packed as we were getting ready to leave but our bad experiences started when it was still dead... if you're in the area I'd suggest checking something else out![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Stopped in for lunch at the Public House. I had the tips sandwich with mushrooms, onions, and Swiss. It was delicious on a soft fluffy roll. I got fried Brussels sprouts as a side and they were delicious too. My hubby had the Rueben and it was very good! He liked the shaved corned beef. The fries were good too. I had the Strawberry Fields forever and it was perfect, not too sweet. My husband had the spicy Bloody Mary and enjoyed it. The server was friendly and helpful. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant is smallish but eclectic. They do have some out door seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We look forward to coming back. read more

In a sea of 4 and 5 star reviews this may be startling. Ordered the strip steak with chimichurri. The absolute worst steak I've ever had. The chimicurri was a day and a half old - as confirmed by our waiter Davon (sp? as there are many ways to go); the steak was supposed to be grilled, but there was no grilled flavor - NO flavor at all. The green beans did not live up to the description. To his credit our waiter defended the cook, but he shouldn't have. One of the worst dining experiences we've ever had, and we don't have many. read more

Great customer service, food, and drinks! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Very clean and overall great establishment![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

Who's open late on a Christmas Eve while others shut down at 10PM? Public House! I've been here off and on and have never been disappointed. The hospitality, diversity, good natured staff and cozy environment paired with good food and drink are what makes this restaurant bar a welcome sight when you are hungry and wanting a good meal and to relax. Everything in the menu had always been great, the only thing missing are non- alcoholic drinks, but a Shirley Temple solved that. There is indoor and outdoor seating, street parking or a nearby garage, within walking distance of local old Town shops, VRE and Amtrak train station, banks, post office and police station. You will make this one of your favorite pub stops, give it a try. + great eats + great vibe + customer service + parking + outdoor seating - non-alcoholic cocktail beverages read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Ambiance is that of a neighborhood corner pub where you can catch the footgame and eat well.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Varied menu that does not disappoints had the deviled eggs (skip these as they are very plain) and the maple bacon appetizer (more of a pork belly cut, still delectable!). The Service is a tad slow as our waitress was running behind, HOWEVER the other waiter DID make sure we had drinks and appetizers to start. Great teamwork! So I started with a sugar cookie martini with all the sprinkles! The Spicy Southwest burger with peach bbq sauce was SPICY and great to warm you up in a cold wintry day. Highly recommend getting the sauce on the side and dipping instead due to the spicy nature of the burger. Definitely able to breathe well after this one! The spice level was epic and delicious, so you are forewarned! read more

Just dined here for the first time and it will be the last. The food was mediocre, server was nice but admittedly very awkward and service was slow. For what we paid we could've dined at a much nicer establishment with quality food. I ordered a "melt" which wasn't a melt at all it was just an unseasoned burger with nasty beer cheese. The French onion soup was some of the worst I've ever had. All the food lacked flavor. Everything was bland. The best part of the meal was the frozen fries that was served with it. Ordered a orange creamsicle margarita - it was decent , but was rimmed with salt and orange zest when it truly should've been sugar. That's just my opinion as a bartender myself. Was nothing note able, very forgettable experience. Don't recommend. read more

Great food, Great service We eat here very often [[HIGHLIGHT]]Wish there was more outdoor seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Wondering if the old screened in porch that used to be upstairs facing the back of the restaurant is still there because that would be a great place to eat[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

We came here for lunch after my son's soccer game. Very good food and fresh beer on tap

We went for the first time on a Saturday at 6:30. The restaurant was pretty full, but we were greeted right away and sat at a 4 top table in the back. Destiny, our waiter, was great - fast with orders, gave recommendations, cleared items quickly. We had the poutine to start - very good! We ordered the wings, the Mac and cheese entree and a kids meal pizza. The flavors were all good, but every food item needed a few more minutes of cooking. The restaurant was 1/2 empty so it wasn't because the kitchen was slammed. The wings were on the rare side. The onion rings were limp. The Mac and cheese had pieces of undercooked bacon in it. The kid's "pizza" was a pita bread. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It is too bad that the food didn't match the ambiance or quality of service.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We brought the food home because with a few minutes in the air fryer - everything will be delicious. I included picture of the food we brought home. read more

Cute bar/brewery with outside seating. We chose to eat inside which was fine - especially once the very loud person at the bar left. The service from Jack was very attentive. My son had a cheeseburger ($10.50) and a side of kids Mac & cheese (without the roasted onions and smoked bacon - kids - what do they know). He enjoyed them both and ended up ordering another cheeseburger. I might return for the full bore Mac & cheese... I had the mussels in wine garlic broth - a pound for $11.50 which is a great price. They were absolutely delicious -- wishing I was eating them now. Unfortunately 10 of them were dead. When I brought that to Jack's attention, he checked with the kitchen. They offered me another full order for no charge, but I was already pretty full. They ended up comping me the entire dish = which was unexpected but very generous. We will definitely return when in Manassas again. read more

We came here on a Sunday evening for dinner. We sat outside because it was nice outside today. Waitress was very great. 5 stars. She was very polite and friendly and helpful. She was also very prompt. Food was 3 stars. The pretzels and cheese was really good. The burger and crispy chicken cordon blue were okay. The cordon blue was a little bit over fried. We tried a new place. It was okay. Probably won't come back. But this was worth a try. read more

Came here to celebrate the high school graduation ‍ of my youngest niece. Last one to graduate in our extended family - technically she is our grand niece or daughter of our niece. Staff was friendly and helpful. Burgers are good. No gluten free bread option. Anything fried is in soybean oil and there is cross contamination. But I liked the burger - I had the double decker. And the area is very nice to walk around. You can actually buy a drink to go and walk around with the drink in this area. Not a great place for gluten-free folks but otherwise seems fun. read more

I love this place. I've only been here twice and only had two things (plus beer). Their signature burger is awesome. One of my favorite takes on a burger around NoVa. And their Brussel sprouts are also quite tasty. I've had a different server each time. In fact, table service with the wife once and then solo at the bar. Service was top shelf both times. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I suppose the decor could be better, but if they knock it out of the park on the two most important parts of the experience, I can honestly say I don't care so much about the decorations.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The other aspect of hanging here is the local feel.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I can't say whether or not people are actually local or not, but if they are I want to move to Manassas. Truly a great place to eat. read more

I've been here several times to try the poutine, and omg, it is worth it!

I've been in the DC area for over 20 years and had no idea there was a quaint downtown in Manassas. We stopped by on our way back from WV. The patio at public house was smaller than some of the other restaurants, but they welcomed dogs. The amber ale was good but the other beers I tried were terrible (the wheat beer and the oatmeal stout). The mussels were decent and my husband liked his burger. read more

The fried chicken sandwich is something I downright crave sometimes. Then I get there and am tempted by the siren song of the poutine. The only spot in the area I've found with good poutine. It usually results in me taking half of everything home because I can't decide and order both. Service is always friendly and helpful. Food is always hot and exactly as promised. Only once did they not have the right sauce for the sandwich and swapped it with something else but that was equally as yummy so no harm no foul. Dependably great food! read more

After trekking out to Manassas for their Farmers Market we decided to roam around the quaint old downtown. While there are plenty of cute small restaurants, and an abundance of breweries, the Public House looked most inviting. A nice patio streetside, on a slow one way, in nice weather is quite enjoyable. A large beer selection, including their own craft brews look enticing, but as we had a drive home we had to skip those libations. The Mediterranean Plat is a beautiful and plentiful sampler with tons of Olives, a great home made hummus, roasted peppers, pickled artichokes, olive oil, cucumbers and 2 types of bread (pita & French loaf). The Thai Scallops were delish, with noodles, green onions and crisps. the Scallops were just about perfect, but there are only 3 so it goes fast. Very attentive service for a small place that was busy. On our next trip out here we will definitely be back. read more

There are a lot of choices to eat in this neighborhood. We wanted a good beer selection and a variety of food options. We really enjoyed this restaurant and our friends from out of town really liked it too. It was a Saturday, parking, no fault of restaurant, was not easy due to an event in town. We were able to find free parking on a residential street and walked about 10 minutes to the restaurant. It was a nice day, so the walk felt good. We sat outside and the weather was just right. We were enjoying the company of friends we had not seen in awhile and the servers were patient with us as we took our time ordering. I had mussels sautéed with bacon jalapeño and the Gouda mac and cheese. Both items were tasty and I would order again. Friends had the "Best Reuben Around" and liked it, but it wasn't their best they ever had. I really liked this restaurant and the ambience of the location. Will visit again. read more
