Reviews for Harper’s Tavern in Annville, PA
Food is good.. Service was great.. Definitely worth a stop by..
We had the BEST EVER experience at Harper's Tavern!! ???????? Not only was the food absolutely out of this world delicious--we... also had an absolutely out of this world server. She was on top of things & could not have been any more accommodating! I am aBIG tipper no matter what but this server received a 70% TIP!! She was worth every penny & we made sure she knew we appreciatedall she had done for us. I am so terrible with names or I would give her a shout out. Unfortunately I cannot do that because Icannot remember her name. ???? There is such a history there & they give you a paper that has all the info from 200+ yrs agowhen the first person owned the property. It is known to be haunted-this was my main reason for taking my daughter there for herBIRTHDAY DINNER ???? We both love that kind of stuff. Anyway-I was glad we went not only for the fantastic service but for theEXCELLENT FOOD & to SPOT a GHOST!! My daughter saw the little girl in a dress-running around & playing behind the bar-just priorto me mentioning that a little girl in a dress has been seen by other's!! THAT WAS CRAZY-WE LOVED IT! It is a must see place. Ifyou love knowing anything about the past ( meaning bout 150yrs ago or MORE) I would be the 1 to follow & THIS PLACE WOULD BE 1TO SEE!! It is very different & beautifully transitioned w/o changing much originality. Read more
The food was great! There were several different items that I would want to order and hope I have a chance to down the road. ... The special on Saturday was Prime Rib so I went with that and was not disappointed. Very good cut of meat and extremely tasty. I also had a cup of the clam chowder and that was delicious as well! The tavern itself is very cool. Neat rooms and you candefinitely get a feel for the history of the building. Definitely will go back again! Shame it took me so long to visit in thefirst place!

This is an old building that apparently has been a pub and restaurant since 1804. It certainly has not been updated in a while.... But it is charming. Service was first rate and prices were very reasonable. I got the Chicken Parmesan (which I found in thePasta section for some reason) and it was good. It was served with a dinner salad, came with a warm roll, salad dressingetc. My only complaint was the the chicken itself was tough. So tough that I had to ask for a steak knife to cut it. Acolleague of mine got one of the veals and had the same problem so it was either a problem in the kitchen that night, or maybethis is the way they prepare their meats? The server had a hard time describing the vegetable of the day. It was BrusselsSprouts and when we asked him how it was prepared, the question stumped him. Luckily the table next to ours had ordered it,overheard the conversation and showed us that the Sprouts were roasted. It was a good meal and enjoyable service even with acouple of small mishaps and if I'm in the area in the future, I will definitely want to stop in again as the menu is quiteextensive with lots of options to explore.

Never disappointed! Delicious food, refreshing libations and warm inviting servers
I drive by Harper's Tavern all the time after kayaking and never once stopped. The other day my brother and I just made that... spur of the moment choice to stop there after paddling for several hours. We were not disappointed. Menu pricing is a bit more,but the quality is a bit more, but still completely affordable. I went with a Bacon Cheeseburger meal. Let me tell you, this wasthe best burger I've had in Lebanon County. I always have my burger done "medium" and this place delivered a near perfectlooking sandwich. The bacon is worthy of praise too, it wasn't soggy or over cooked, just perfect bacon for a sandwich. The rollwas soft and tasted great. Our service was quick and our waitress was nice and very well mannered. Read more
Great place. Comfortable atmosphere. Friendly efficient service. Excellent food.
The server was wonderful, very knowledgeable and attentive. The ambiance was lovely, Christmas decorations inside and out. The... ladies room was warm, which is unusual in my experience, but certainly appreciated! The food was good. I would definitely eat atHarper's again if in the area. Read more
