Great atmosphere and service. Chairs not the best for obese person. Two meals were great and third wasn't. Pork was dry. Cheesecake was dry too.
I had the crab cakes and they were wonderful!! House dressing on the salad that was quite tasty. Others had prime rib Oscar and they truly enjoyed it.
We ate in the dining room which was very quiet and great or a dinner date. We originally went to try the burgers since we heard they were good and they had a special on Mondays for $6 burgers. I think that is in the tavern area, which as our first time didn't know there was a difference. Overall still great and would recommend.
Authentic scenery and great food combine for a unique dining and lodging experience. This 1760s tavern has maintained much of it's charm in the low ceiling, wood beams, and massive fireplace. The food and drinks feature seasonal, locally sourced favorites. I was at the Tavern for a 50th birthday/ college roommate reunion. Three of us booked the 2-room Suite 3, with 2 queen beds and a bath and a half. The rooms were spacious with a sitting area in each room. Shutters covered the deep-set windows, and lovely 4 poster beds graced each room. It was a really lovely setting and the staff was helpful and gracious. The only negative for me, alone, was the complete lack of handicap accessibility. I wear braces on both legs and find steps challenging. There were 2 full flights of steep stairs to get back and forth from our room to the main restaurant area. I know that these old buildings were not created with accessibility in mind, so it was my own fault for not asking. But it was difficult to get around.
Beautiful, eclectic, with a historical feel. Great food and the friendly staff made for a great experience. The basement level has a stunning raw rock wall interior.
Very nice Tavern fare. Had Crabcake sandwich which was very good. Desserts a bit high priced. Enjoyable outdoor Dining experience
This is one of my favorite places to eat! The food & service are always exceptional! I love that you have the choice between tavern style dining upstairs that is more casual or a more romantic style dining downstairs that's more formal.
They always have a featured food & drink menu that changes monthly/ seasonally. They consist of very taste appropriate dishes & drinks that play off of the time of year.
I highly recommend the creamy crab & shrimp covered salmon! By far the best salmon I've ever had! Tasteful hint: if you order the red skinned mashed potatoes as your side, you can put in a request to have the mixture added to the top as a gravy if requested when ordering.
This is a very popular place for locals & out of town visitors; reservations are a must at peak hours to avoid waiting.
A historic landmark, riddled with ghost stories (has been featured on Halloween travel documentaries every year for a decade), and great atmosphere. There is a pub with tavern food on the upper level and a proper restaurant with quite a cultured menu downstairs (I always opt for the downstairs because I can "feel" what it must have been like in pre-revolutionary days to eat there). The staff are always friendly, as are the local regular patrons who seem to come with the place. Highly recommended!
We stopped in to have dinner. The ambiance was they type I enjoy. Since I like history and antiques, this over 250 year old tavern was perfect for me. The menu had many choices. The food was fresh and delicious! Our waitress was lovely, very friendly and accommodating. The cost of the food was reasonable. This was a fantastic alternative to a fast food meal along the highway. Loved it!
The main attraction of Jean Bonnet is the setting - dining in the historic tavern. The food was average, service was fine. Interesting place to stop as you travel Route 30.
Food was ok, I wish they would put there efforts to local ingredients being that it is surrounded by PA agriculture; I had the bison burger.
The atmosphere was really cool! It was your picturesque tavern.
Sat on the back porch on a sunny day and completely forgot I was along the interstate.
I recently stopped here on the way back to Pittsburgh and was pleasantly surprised by our experience here. Service was prompt, the prices were a great value (especially compared to the prices that similar "historic" restaurants charge), and the location off the turnpike was convenient without being too touristy. I ordered the French dip and crab chowder, both of which were excellent. A great beer list was a plus as well. I will certainly be returning if I find myself passing through the area in the future.
Jean Bonnet Tavern has amazing food and service, and a wonderful atmosphere. It is a historic location and one of PA's top 10 haunted locations. It has a lovely little shop and provides free goat food. Why do you need goat food, you ask? They have goats that you can feed and they're great.
Wonderful old authentic building and decor. Not the modem new ideas except the new bar. Very nice, food is great have spent the night before. It was an awesome outing out of the ordinary. Love it
