50 Best American Restaurants near Sunbury

“Atmosphere is casual, mature, classy, simple. Fun and chill place for food and drinks and talk. Definitely not a rowdy bar which is nice if you’re trying to avoid that. Decent prices, honestly good for the quality of food you get. Also GOOD portions (got the nachos, snickerdoodles, and drinks- everything was massive!!!) The Ladies running the food were phenomenal! Quick, and efficient and super sweet explaining how the place works since it was our first time. Our bartender/server was super kind also but maybe not as quick and efficient. First drink i ordered from her was VERY strong, second one was fairley weak. Otherwise good and she just seem to get caught up in conversation. Granted there was only us and 1 other table here, she also sat down to talk and conversate with the other table while we were waiting to order more. Overall really good experience though! Will be back!!!“

“I took a friend to lunch for her birthday, we had a lovely time.... the food was delicious, the waitress was great, and we didn't feel rushed. Did some shopping in the store, can't go to Cracker Barrel and not shop!“

“Chris made us the most delicious WH food I’ve ever had! Excellent service and super friendly!“

“Great service even when busy. staff is amazing.“

“Not busy at all. We called in to make sure they were open. Once inside we were the only customers. Good service good food.“

“The house salad dressing is one of the most delicious things I’ve ever had. I reeaallyy need the recipe for it. I live in TX and likely won’t wind up in Columbus again so… just think about it lol. The coconut shrimp were so good and our service was really great.“

“Great portions for a decent price with excellent caring servers!“

“My husband and I received fantastic food and service on 4/27. It's the little things, such as bringing addional sweet n low packets to the table without prompting, and making sure we had a second beverage before we finished the first glass, that separate decent servers from the excellent ones. Abby is definitely in the excellent category! Our burgers were prepared as requested and tasted delicious! We don't live nearby, however, we'll definitely make a point to visit again when we are in the area.“

“This is one of the best restaurants for breakfast, brunch, and dinner. The food is consistent. I have visited all the locations in the area, and I can confidently say that the food quality, quantities, and flavor are consistent. My favorite meal selections are the cloud nine pancakes, applewood smoked bacon, homemade breakfast sausage, country breakfast, fresh buttermilk biscuit, classic cheeseburger, Northstar burger, fish sandwich, and chopped salad. I have never had a bad experience or meal at Northstar. This is the energy and sense of community that was present at Starbucks. You can see and feel through the experience and the atmosphere that Northstar is firmly committed to exceptional service and quality. This is my go-to spot to rewind, relax, and socialize.“

“We had a great time. Beautiful location, excellent coffee, seriously delicious food, friendly staff. We’re here from Wheeling,WV, but will DEFINITELY make the trip back!“

“We went with friends On 3/29/25 to the Polaris location. First time visiting and it was slammed. Luckily we made reservations ahead of time. All I can tell you is the place is amazing in every way. The food was great and affordable. The service was 5-star. We will return! 👍❤️“

“Have been wanting to try this place forever and finally made it in today with my best friend, what a disappointment. Their posted hours show open till 2:30 pm, we arrived at 1:50 (plenty of time for some pancakes and coffee.) The weight staff was in full on cleanup mode and made it Very obvious they were done working for the day with the way we were greeted. I ordered decaf coffee and was told there was none left so decided to have regular and then didn't even get a full cup of that. At $4.99 a pop I need a full cup. I looked at my friend and said "they don't want to wait on us they are annoyed that they are already cleaning up and we came in" she agreed so when the server came back I politely said "we will just elsewhere we can tell you're cleaning up for the day" There was no "oh you are fine, you still have 40 minutes" or anything like that there just " are you sure?" We left and headed down the street to Delaney's Diner who would also be closing in about an hour at 3 PM but a TOTALLY different vibe. Greeted with a smile from the person at the hostess stand and 2 of the chefs even looked over and smiled and said welcome come on in! We looked at each other and said much better, we are definitely in the right place now. I've heard nothing but good things about the pancakes at the Pancake House I only wish I would have got to experience them But being treated well is more important to me than food. I understand wanting to be done work for the day believe me but it wasn't like we walked in with 3 minutes till closing. Oh well 🤷‍♀️“

“Food was great and portions were large! The value is the best around! Carlie was great and made sure we had everything we need.

Kid-friendliness: The servers made our kids feel comfortable and the kids menu had great options.“

“First time here and it did not disappoint. We all had the hamburgers and they were delicious!!!!! The service was great as well!!! We will differently be back 🍔“

“Great tasting food. Small town vibe. Personable staff.“

“A hidden gem! As soon as you walk in the door, you are welcomed. The decor is so warm, cozy and inviting; a little taste of wine country. The wine and food is excellent. I've been here for happy hour/dinner and most recently lunch. The appetizers and meals have been consistently delicious. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable on the wines and menu items. Excellent service and reasonable prices. We will definitely be back!“

“great waitresses n waiters. Great food n always friendly service. Definitely recommend this place to everyone.“

“Wow. 10/10 recommend this restaurant. Our planned date night on the patio ended up being "to go" thanks to our little guy, but it was still absolutely delicious! We've been dying to eat at the Two One since following them on IG and drooling at their seasonal menu. So glad we finally did it. Great value for money, delicious meals, great menu- we will have to return to sit out on the patio overlooking the fountain and try one of their cocktails. Yum!“

“Such a unique and comforting atmosphere with utterly delicious food!!!“

“We had wonderful food tonight and great service by our server Megan. Haven't been to Wendall's Pub in many years but I will be back sooner next time!“

“Ordered the medallion meal. The meat was all fat and gristle.“

“First time dining here. Wanted to take my wife somewhere special for a night away that we don't get often. We were not disappointed. Nicholas was our server and he did a wonderful job. Very informative on menu and very kind. Food was delicious! Will be back for sure.“

“ALWAYS A GREAT TIME HERE, AND OUR GO TO DURING GOODGUYS CAR SHOW IN COLUMBUS OHIO, THE AFTER PARTYS ARE GREAT AND THEY HAVE A SPECIAL AREA FOR HOT RODS TO DO BURNOUTS. AWESOME FOOD , GREAT PEOPLE AND GOOD TIMES.. AND A GREAT PLACE TO GO ANY TIME.. HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PLACE..“

“We are regulars here. The staff are friendly and hard working. Not afraid to have a conversation with you and they will make your order right without issue. They have other locations but we prefer this location based upon the employees we encounter and the food being so on point.“

“Food was delicious!! Our waitress, Janelle, was incredibly beyond terrific!! She took great care and attention to my friend and me.“

“Our waiter was Liam. He was polite and smiled. I was able to change the meal just a little to stay on my diet restrictions. He did an amazing job. Thank you Liam. The food was awesome and was excellent! I live over 24 miles away, but will come back and bring family.“

“The donuts and rolls are great and they recognize my hubby as a regular!“

“Food was delicious! I had the trifecta with the waffle and sausage links and my dad had the sausage gravy and biscuits. Every thing came out hot fresh and delicious. I forgot how good the food was!

Wheelchair accessibility: Went with my father and seating was available for him. We were first offered a booth when we first came in but other than that very accommodating.“

“The onion rings and bbq chicken nachos were great. The french fries were so hard they wouldn't bend. They took them off the bill. We saw a lot of plates as we were leaving with all their french fries left on them. Burger were good.“

“Even understaffed, unlike the Louisville location, everyone killed it tonight! First the bartender was absolutely amazing! Because I’m not behind the scene, all the sudden a manager came out and helped. They actually did really well. Then it got busier. Either the GM or owner came out! This really was a great staff!“

“In my humble opinion , for a chain it's the best place for breakfast . Everything is made to order and appears to be made from quality ingredients.
Staff at all First Watch are very friendly and seem to really enjoy working with there.
Anytime I have a choice for breakfast, it'll always be First Watch.

Parking: It's located in a newer strip mall and sits on the west side of US 23 probably halfway between Delaware and the road that takes you to Polaris.
Hope this is the review for that store. We ate at one the day before that was closer to Polaris. East side of I-71. It was also ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“I have been looking for a good pizza since moving north from Clintonville and I have finally found it! I judge on pepperoni pizzas - it was thin, crispy and the pepperoni was perfectly cooked! Will drive to Westerville from Delaware Alum Creek area anytime! Also loved the Boneless Wings - very little breading and quality chicken.“

“This is an all time favorite in my hometown of Westerville Ohio. You can count on a delicious breakfast or brunch from a large menu. Fabulous staff are always friendly and courteous. The food is really fantastic of high quality and fresh. Can have a bit of a worthwhile wait for a table. Great place always !!

Kid-friendliness: Classic Kids menu“

“It was my first time here. We ordered a BBQ chicken chop. Just the salad bowl. The Romaine lettuce was fresh and crunchy. The rotisserie chicken was soft and juicy. Overall, it was a good decent bowl. The bowl was kind of sweet with the standard sauces that came with it. Adding hot sauce made it right. Good place.“

“I vome here for the dolphins games and I have a great time with my girlfriend. The bartenders though seem to not like me and her at all and I do not know why. We try to tip nice and just seems like we are always ignored or just get treated very standoffish. I go here to enjoy my team with people of similar likeness. Not to be made to feel uncomfortable. Otherwise great place and a good time“

“Dat shizz was fire fire 🔥 bruh“

“Had a great experience the food was great and everyone was friendly“

“Tony and his team are EXCELLENT! All the warmth and friendliness that you'd expect in a "hometown" bar. Food is delicious. Staff is friendly and prompt with service. Pool tables are solid. The regulars are incredible. Hubby and I had such a good time! Can't wait to come back!“

“Exactly what you think it is but exceeds expectations!!!“

“We just had the best beet salads with amazing dressing. You can’t go wrong adding the smoked salmon or prosciutto. Absolutely amazing!!“

“WOW. We will be back! We ordered the Mother load and had more than enough food for everyone. And very tasty! Highly recommend.“

“I pay $10 just for a sandwich.
No drink, no fries, just a it's kid sandwich

Parking: Customers work very hard for their money, and we'll like to get quantity and quality for their hard earned money. $10 for a small sandwich is a great profit for the store and hands in the pockets for the customer.“

“We had a large group (10 people) go in for brunch today. I rarely leave my house due to health reasons. This was a very lovely, relaxing time. The food was delicious and service was great. Thank you very much!“

“Great atmosphere and fantastic food“

“Stopped in for lunch today. First time here and didn't know whether to seat ourselves or wait (no signage). There was a young girl tending bar and she didn't say anything to us while we just stood there waiting (she only had one customer). Finally I walked over to the bar and asked her if we should seat ourselves, and she just "nodded yes". She did come over and take her order and she was friendly enough. Got a barbecue wrap which was very big, but very dry. Tasted like canned chicken. I only had a little bit of barbecue sauce on one side of the wrap. Had the chicken been tossed in it, it probably would have been better. Tater tots are very good. My husband got the pub and fries and said they both were good, although the pub sub had very little meat on it.“

“Food was great and fast!!!!“
