Super slow service. The people around us were waited on, served before we were able to order our drinks and we were seated at least 5 minutes before them. When we did get our drink order in it took forever to get them, again, a water and a coke and one drink from the bar. It is 6pm on a Saturday yet they were not all that busy at all. Got the Brussel Sprouts appetizer and was highly disappointed. Charbroiled would be an understatement. They were fried to the point of being inedible. Definitely wouldn't recommend those. My husband burger was ok. He got the Honkey Tonk Burger and it didn't taste horrible but wasn't something to write home about. I got a Cesar Salad and it left me questioning what the purpose of even saying it had avocado on it with the 3 slivers on the top as a garnish. At least the bartender made a good drink. That's about as good as it got. We come here on our anniversary and on New Years Eve every year and this is by far the worst service and food we have ever had. read more

This place was great. Super cool old hotel. We sat outside and the patio was great but inside is really cool. We had the Brussel sprouts which were really sweet. Didn't love those but we did eat them! Got the meatballs, French onion soup and a side salad for a meal. All were excellent. Huge meatballs. Husband got the Seafood dish cooked in the tomato broth--don't remember the name but he loved it. Make sure to see the dessert tray. We got the espresso cheesecake. Very good. Not heavy on the coffee flavor but really good. Service was great! Definitely go again. read more

Enjoyed an AMAZING pre-St. Patrick's Day dinner at The Galley tonight. Enjoyed the Guinness Stew, Soda Bread and Cheddar, Shepherd's Pie, and Irish Cream Creme Brulee for dessert. Everything was absolutely delicious! Get thee to The Galley before it's all gone! Have dined here several times in recent months and find it to be consistently good! Food, service, and atmosphere are all superb. One of the Top 5 Best Places in the MOV. read more

Best restaurant in Marietta...hands down. Delicious food including an incredible pork chop, creative burgers, and crazy good desserts. Fabulous service as well read more

This was an overnight stop on a road trip. Hungry and tired we looked for a location close to the hotel with good Yelp reviews. The Galley is located in a beautiful area close to the river. The interior is well decorated and very inviting. The brussels were the perfect appetizer and were delicious. They offer many beers on tap. After reviewing the menu, i asked our server for recommendations, there were so many things to choose from. I ended up with a burger and glad I did. Perfectly cooked to a med rare, full of flavor. Our server was spot on and checked in often. If you are a local to Marrietta, OH or just passing through, I highly recommend that you stop in. read more

Not have band warm up during dinner hours. A manager that smiles when he seats people. Greet customers immediately when they are sat and don't take 20 min for drinks and 30 min for appetizers. fish and chips is boxed fries and two pieces of fish for 23$ way too much read more

The Galley - These are not hand cut fries and two pieces of fish 23$ manager didnt smile once and food and drinks took way too long. Do better!! - American Near Me - Marietta, Ohio

The Galley has always been one of my fav spots to go when I'm in town! The vibe has an old school pub feel, the staff are usually friendly, and their spinach and artichoke dip never disappoints. I went with a burger and shared it with my little one. We devoured it. So glad to see The Galley is still going strong! read more

Great restaurant, we've been here several times when traveling and love the quality of food and service. Love the old touches of decorating too. read more

We love this place! Food is amazing and the service is great. Big drink menu. Love the decorations inside.

I ordered the mushroom burger and fries. It took forever to get to my table. The burger had very little cheese and what cheese was on it had melted completely away. The aioli was good. But 22.50 plus a suggested tip for that? They had a few gluten-free options and the vegetables they did offer (like the brussels sprouts) were coated in brown sugar... Restaurant was pretty and everyone was cleaning but the food was overpriced and not very good for a small portion of it... Will I return? Not so much. read more

We happened upon this place while in Marietta to attend a play. The restaurant was lovely, and we were seated and waited upon promptly. I ordered the pasta with scallops, shrimp, and calamari in vodka sauce, and my fiancé ordered the fennel-brined chicken. The portions were perfect and delicious! Flavors and seasoning were outstanding, although I felt the mushroom risotto which accompanied my date's chicken was a tad underwhelming, but risotto is a tricky thing to get perfect. The seasoning on the chicken more than made up for it. And it was HALF of a small chicken! Price to value was fair, service was good, and I will definitely return on my next trip. If you're in Marietta, this is an excellent choice for a good meal! read more

This is the restaurant inside the Lafayette Hotel in downtown Marietta. They were short staffed BUT REALLY STEPPED UP THEIR GAME!! The big breakfast is included with your room, and they went over and above, preparing it exactly as we had asked. Some ordered scrambled eggs some ordered over easy some ordered over very easy.. we got crispy hashbrowns as ordered with onions thrown in and refills very quickly on our coffee and tea Could not have asked for better service!! read more

First time we've been in here since forever. Prices a little high, but fantastic food. I had a muenster burger with veggies. H had an applewood smoked burger with fries. Burgers were juicy, done perfectly. oh-delicious!! I haven't had mixed veggies (cauliflower, cabbage, carrots) done this excellent in a while. Will definitely come again soon. Ambiance seems the same to me, a blast from the past. Great service. read more

Good ambiance, service and food. Stopped for lunch while traveling. Did not have to wait, and had a nice waitress.

I'm an out of towner, I'm here a few times every year. Very nice staff and I met the owner years ago and he was super nice. 2024 fall review: Sweet potato bisque-excellent. Ultimate bacon cheeseburger with side salad. I added a fried egg to burger-excellent. Great tap list. Keep up with cleaning those tap lines, it makes a huge difference. read more

A go to lunch spot when we're are in town for work every year, but he best salad I have had I. Marietta

I used to come here all the time up until 2017 when I moved away. I'm not sure what happened to the Galley but it's gone downhill. We had a reservation for 6 people on the patio. We show up and the hostess takes us outside and presents us with two tables for 4 and basically tells us to figure it out. So we (the patrons) moved the tables in order to sit together. Oh and it wasn't very busy at that time so I'm not sure why someone couldn't have moved the tables around beforehand, especially since we had a reservation. Now to the food. The menu was mostly the same so I went with the New York Strip (medium rare). First of all the steak was way overcooked. It was almost well done. I would have sent it back but I don't do things like that. The mashed potatoes were not fluffy at all, they were stiff. It was like they were made and plopped on the plate and sat for 20 minutes. Then the mixed veggie side. It was like tiny pieces of peppers and onions "stir fried", but they seemed way over cooked. I tried some of Brads coleslaw that came with his food and it was not good. Overall I don't recommend the galley anymore. Im not sure if management changed or what but the value is not there for the price. read more

Hubs and I were looking for a late dinner and drinks and turned to Yelp for help. We were a little hesitant based on some of the reviews but limited in our options. I'm so glad that we were. This place did NOT disappoint. We shared the Brussels app. Delicious. If Brussels came in an addictive drug form, this would be it. Sweet and acidic and smoky and crunchy and yum. I had the fig and burrata salad on the recommendation of the server. Delicious. Hubs had wings. Delicious. Service was attentive and really kind without being overbearing - the type of service that you pine for when thinking about the good ole days when people liked their service jobs. People were laughing and enjoying their time with each other and the staff. Do not walk; run to the Galley. I would add pictures, but we were so enamored with the experience that I forgot to take them. read more

Food was delicious! Service was spot on and drinks were amazing! I would highly recommend a stop here for dinner or a drink!

Service was out of this world and extremely attentive. Prices were pretty cheap (comparing to what we spend in Denver) and the food was tasty. Such a neat restaurant in a beautiful old historic building. read more

The food was pretty good but pricey for what we gI loved the Brussels sprouts. The boneless chicken wings were smaller than chicken nuggets from any fast food restaurant and were dry. Chili was good the Mac & cheese was tasty. There was not a crowd at 1:30 when we stopped but it seemed to take a long time to get our food. The vanilla ice cream that came with the kids meal was the tastiest item. read more

The Galley - Brussel Sprouts delicious. Boneless chicken wings for &12.00. Not worth it. - American Near Me - Marietta, Ohio

The food was excellent and our server was wonderful. She picked up on each of our personalities and was a hoot we loved her. The restaurant was wonderful. We felt very comfortable there. read more

It's not my normal go to but my husband wanted to try it for our date night. Very dimly lit inside, not much seating indoors. But I got a salad and it was very large and tasted delicious. My husband got a steak that looked good as well. I'm a very picky eater, and there wasn't tons of options I would eat. But that doesn't make them bad, just my preference. read more

Always fabulous! The local farm raised beef, great fish and the brussels sprout is always a hit.

The galley is a consistently great place to grab a bite! The atmosphere is relaxing and the staff is attentive. I've had many different things from the menu over the past several years- most recently we ordered wings, a burger, and the fish and chips. All we're excellent! The French onion soup is also great and we loved all our drinks from the bar :) I love visiting the Galley/Adelphia when I travel home, it's a nice place to spend time with family! read more

Everything was delicious! Service was excellent! Burgers were cooked perfectly and we enjoyed the chocolate pecan pie.

The food is worth it in my opinion. The Brussel sprouts, burrata salad, and steak tasted delicious and were cooked perfectly. The lemon cake can be skipped at the end though because it is DRY- probably a pre frozen cake. The waitress was friendly and gave us time to decide without rushing our big group. MY ONLY QUALM- THERE IS NO BABY CHANGING TABLE IN THE WOMENS RESTROOM. They have a family restroom but it was locked and we had a full dipey and a crying baby. This grinds my gears. So overall a good place to get after work drinks and apps, but not entirely family friendly. read more

Pretty ambiance. I sat outside on a nice October evening. Had the fried chicken. It had an interesting flavor.....and I think it's because they added fennel to the batter. Different from traditional fried chicken, but not in a bad way. Washed that down with a cider, which was crisp and dry. Great service. Fair prices. Interesting story about the building. Attached to a small boutique hotel that was once a brothel many years ago. And of course there are some ghosts there. In the restaurant the ghosts favor the male chefs. Apparently. read more

Great find for a salad. Black mission figs with burrata. We can certainly make it at home. There's arugula so peppery. Green home crisp apples for some tartness and sweetness. Almonds for a different crunch. Reduced balsamic and the burrata which made the salad decadent. You can add a protein but to me it is good in itself. I wish there's a smaller version so I can have something else. I had it 2 days in a row Kettle chips were great. Not salty I gave them a 4 stars because the server is not quite familiar with their beers. I had Cool Beans beer. The server could've mentioned that it is coffee flavor or infused. Hated it. Only had a couple of sips. I prefer my beers tasting like beers while coffees tasting like coffees. I'm certainly afraid of coffees tasting like beers Service is great read more

The galley is a nice restaurant in Marietta. It has a great outdoor patio for a nice summer evening and the inside has a lot of character and charm. They have a good selection of wine and beer also. The food is good but expect to pay for it. We had salmon and a pasta entree and both were very good. A good solid restaurant in Marietta. read more

We had a lovely time on the patio while visiting Marietta. The sweet corn chowder bisque was tasty and my partners dinner salad ample and delicious. A side of bread was provided and then we shared a dessert apple strudel to top off our delectable meal. Great service with charm!! We'll be back!! read more

...and you want to go where everyone knows your name... For some reason, this place reminds me of Cheers. Maybe it's the classy bar and the wood. There is a lot of wood in this place. In 10 years, I have only made it a point to dine in the Galley maybe twice. And in writing this, I realize that I want to go back. It's a great place! The interior is elegant and spacious, and they offer outdoor dining during the warmer months. I can't believe that I haven't went more often. But I guess that we get busy and lose track of time, and take for granted that some of the greats will always be around. With that being said, I hope that the Galley continues to serve the mid Ohio Valley as they have for years. I have only always ordered the steak, but it has always been made to order. They have a great baked potato and delicious fries too. In looking at other people's post, I would really like to try a burger now too or maybe the fish and chips. Next stop? The Galley. read more

The Galley isn't what you would call everyday dining. They have a nice selection of cocktails and entrees. I ordered the "crispy skin" snapper and the flavors were okay; it was the pile of wet vegetables on top that soiled the main star- crispy skin. The gnocchi was dry too unfortunately. There was also some sort of mustard sauce that just didn't do it for me so though the plate had serious potential it was not cohesive. I was disappointed. It was soggy and my server told me that was subjective, but everyone knows you can't put soaked veggies on a crispy skin or it will defeat the purpose of leaving the skin on a fish. In any manner our server replaced my snapper without any outbursts for the salmon and it was phenomenal. Awkward seating arrangements. Friendly enough staff. Just not somewhere I'd suggest someone who is on a budget or wanting to take any foodies either. Some dishes are confusing, but over-all good experience. I would like to come again and try something else. read more

Right in the middle of downtown, this place has amazing food, great cocktails and many live music events.

Good food. Great Drinks! A little weak of service . Waited a while for someone to wait on us ( even long for post Covid times.)
