Busy Saturday night and the staff did a great job. Food was excellent and the beverages were excellent.
Delicious dinner from start to finish at our local Bay Pony Inn. Drinks didn't disappoint. Salmon was hot off the grill, perfectly cooked and seasoned nicely with the black bean and corn salsa. An excellent tiramisu made for a perfect end to our meal. Attention from the owner and delightful conversation with our Server, Laurie made the evening special. Grateful to enjoy this local eatery through the years.
Very nice ambience for cozy dining. Food was prepared and plated nicely. Their pork-chop and the sea bass were delicious. I would order the pork-chop sans the blue cheese on top (overpowering). Attentive service and lovely experience overall.
Rather than eat leftovers, wife and I decided last-minute to go out to dinner. Able to call for reservation on Saturday evening at near-by Bay Pony Inn. We had not been there in recent years, and were very pleased with wonderful meal and service in this historic place. Made our weekend special! The low Yelp rating totally wrong. We'll be going back- with friends.
We we went at 5:30 when the restaurant was not totally full, and it was such an enjoyable experience to sit outside. Both of our meals were pretty good. I had the five spice duck and the crackling, the skin was great. My partner got the Soufleed crab which was a mixture of crab and shrimp. I guess they were slices for a crab shrimp crab cake. And that was fair. I'd love to service at this earlier seating but then I saw mistakes be made another tables And the tables were crowded together
I was here for a group brunch rather than a normal dinner so my experience is somewhat limited but what I saw, I liked. Just a few miles up 113 from Skippack it is easily found and the front of the house is an old colonial era tavern with thick stones walls, the motif keeps going inside with the dining area and entry hall maintaining the colonial image with rich wooden surfaces and settles. For larger groups there is a large room on the back, by the design it looks like it was built in the 1940's and another section that looked like a rehabbed train car. I was there on a cold day in February and it was only when looking back on it that i realized I was comfortable, neither too hot nor too cold so they have that properly set up too. - let's be honest some of these period taverns can be a bit cold. Because it was a group function we had a buffet rather than picking from the menu and i went with the chicken. OK potential kamikaze move as institutional chick like that can be more like a Dunlop tire but in this case, it was tender, moist, I loved it and had to stop myself for getting more before others had had firsts. So i was left with a good impression. How good? my wife and I want to go back sometime and try the regular menu. That's probably the best endorsement I can give. When i've had the full menu, I'll update this further.
I got invited to a birthday dinner and I like the place and the owner was friendly and nice and cozy romantic and the food was delicious
