Where should I begin ?…read more The chose the name Deer Lake Pub & Restaurant. Their name could not be further from the truth. It is a bar, not a pub, and certainly has no right to call themselves a restaurant. I have been to many, many true pubs and this is nothing even close. It is a low tier bar, at best. The "restaurant" is a drab room with square tables, no table cloths, the room has no decorations or environment. It is drab and blasé, just like their grossly overpriced poor quality food. The Manheim Diner a few miles North serves MUCH better food tan here and it is a third of the price. I have actually had far better hot food from vending machines in bus and train terminals. I ordered the crab stuffed haddock and my wife ordered the 12-oz. ribeye steak. We asked for rolls with my French onion soup while we waited for our entrees. We decided the soup had to be made in fifteen minutes as it tasted poorly, onions were hard and NOT caramelized at all and there was no bread whatsoever under the cheese. Our requested rolls was not forthcoming until after our dinners were half eaten. The "rolls" were actually a small piece of halved hoagie roll which came to the table charred, hard as a rock and fully burnt on the entire bottom. We could not eat them as they were so hard and burnt. And, they charged $3.99 for that ! I requested the crab-stuffed haddock only have the light lemon butter sauce with no added salt, pepper, Old Bay, oregano, etc. it came to the table overcooked, dry, hard and tasteless. The "stuffed crab" was the same and had portions burnt on the bottom. My wife's "12-oz. ribeye" was more like eight ounces, tough as leather, appeared to us to have been hard beaten with a tenderizing mallet and almost unable to be cut with a steak knife. It was hard to chew and had little taste. We seriously doubt it was a ribeye as it was as tough as a flank steak and was most likely a cooked frozen piece of meat. The entire dinner cost almost $100.00. It was worth, at most, $30.00. We dine out a lot and enjoy good food. This was definitely NOT good food. It was not even mediocre. It was just poorly prepared low tier bar food. Save your money and go get hot food from train station vending machines. It will taste better and be appropriately priced.

Casual night out for drinks and a cheap bite, this is your spot. I ordered off the specials menu. For a starter I went with the house crab dip and chose the toasted bread. It was surprisingly delicious and full of actual lumps of crab meat. For my main I did the surf and turf. Filet with lobster tail. My tail was overcooked and rubbery. My friends was cooked to perfection. Maybe I was just unlucky. My steak was a little more done than preferred but it was tender and had good flavor. You could choose one side and I got mashed potatoes and gravy. They tasted like instant potatoes and canned gravy. It was the biggest disappointment of the meal. The service was ok, our waitress was somewhat attentive to us. The atmosphere was very casual even for a special evening. I was hoping to see a little more effort put into table centerpieces or general decorations.

The establishment is clean, friendly and easy on the budget. A must go to if you're in the area.

July 17, 2025 Well I…read morehesitate to share this review because their Thursday night Steak night is bonkers already! lol!! I've been to this restaurant numerous times, but it was my first time trying steak night this past Thursday my husbands brother was in town so we thought we would take him to the Mckeansburg Hotel. He was there in the past and ordered scallops. I couldn't stop talking about how delicious they were. We opted to sit at the bar and got prompt and friendly service from the owner bartender, Kevin and our server and I'm very sorry. I did not recall her name but she gave very good service and I know that she was extremely busy even being so busy, she was very efficient and polite . I opted to get the strip steak. It is 9 ounces and I ordered it medium in addition to the strip steak. You also get a soup or salad +2 side dishes and homemade fresh baked bread. I heard through the grapevine that the owner comes in at 3 AM and bakes the bread for the restaurant . It has a very pleasant oniony savory flavor. My steak was cooked to perfection and was only $12.95. My brother-in-law law ordered a steak that had onions and mushrooms and my husband ordered the steak with Cajun seasoning. I believe in a blue cheese crown that he absolutely loved. I think those steaks may have been a couple dollars extra but still the price was phenomenal. I would highly recommend steak night. You should consider making a reservation if you want to sit in the dining room all the board tables were already reserved when we arrived, but luckily we were able to find three seats at the bar, but we also went very early. The Mckeansburg is a charming restaurant in the beautiful countryside and it is a well run business most of the times when I go to Mckeansburg, I tend to order the thin sliced roast beef french dip with their delicious creamy horseradish sauce, but for the same price I could have steak on steak night, so I had to try it! It is their specialty and did not disappoint!! I can see what all the excitement is about. I'll be back to this quaint lovely hotel restaurant soon. It's so homey and inviting. The food and prices can't be beat!

First opened in 1890 as an eatery and hotel, the hotel portion is no longer in service, but the restaurant is still thriving where my partner, his family and I came to this hidden gem for breakfast yesterday morning. Reservation was luckily made last minute by calling that morning for an available 830am seating; otherwise, it would have been at 11am. They are that popular for brunch, and patrons would be turned away without one. Upon arrival, some of us stood at the "wait to be seated" sign for a few minutes before being acknowledged. The restaurant appeared to be empty by the number of available parking spaces off of Chestnut Street, with at least three or four tables occupied by customers. Once greeted by the staff, we were immediately seated by the kitchen in the dining room to a simple, traditional, and inviting atmosphere. Like many older buildings, the bar is in a separate room from the restaurant. The breakfast menu was limited compared to other establishments in northern Jersey. We decided on the Farmer Breakfast, Creamed Chipped Beef, Breakfast Quesadilla (no meat) with potatoes substituted, and Eggs Benedict. Our meal was served hot, delicious, homemade with fresh ingredients, and cooked to order. Our server, Sheila, was attentive and accommodating. The price was very reasonable. With history and roots for food and drinks, we can recommend this place.

There was only a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese on top, I think it was parm. There was too little to tell.
