It was ok - hoped for more. The location is super fun w the pub and wine next door, which was great bc we didn’t know it was byo. Very loud, but our table was in the middle of it all and it was a Saturday night. Was hoping for more from the food. :(

We absolutely adore Vernafern. From the first time we visited on a whim - doing a double order of their special of duck potsticker, to their never fail depiction roast chicken - Chef Justin always delivers inventive yet classic comfort food. We have dined for casual Tuesday nights, to special occasions, to farmers market breakfast Sandi’s, the entire staff has become, as cliche as it sounds, like family. We always feel welcomed a know we’re getting a memorable meal. This is once hidden gem is becoming a Doylestown staple and absolutely love to see it!!!

Stopped in for the first time over the weekend for lunch and really enjoyed it. Sat at the bar/counter and was interesting to watch the chef making all the dishes.
The calamari was great and the chili-garlic marinara was really awesome. Ordered the crab cake app and it was also delicious.
Went again for lunch this week and tried the burger, also fantastic. Weird as it may sound, the pickle that came with the burger was probably the best one I’ve ever had.
Definitely worth a try!

Really wish I had taken better photos of our food, but honestly… the second the plates hit the table, everyone just went for it. That’s how good it was. These pictures definitely don’t do our lunch justice.
I’m not even exaggerating when I say this is the best American food I’ve had on the East Coast. Vernafern is such a hidden gem.
The Verna Burger was SO good. Juicy, packed with flavor, and just incredibly satisfying. The pork belly is what makes it stand out. Highly recommend it! The for the fries was creamy but not heavy at all. Just the right amount of garlic and smoothness. And the crabcakes... just sweet, fresh crab with a light crisp on the outside, paired with the most perfect tartar sauce. So good.
You can really tell the chef cares. Everything made with heart and passion. Such a genuinely delightful dining experience. We’ll definitely be back.

What a gem of a restaurant! It's a byob nestled in the heart of Doylestown that serves first-class cuisine. We had hey, fabulous meal of monkfish putanesca over s bed of freshly-made pasta. Lisa, our server, was superb. Justin, the chef, is a culinary star. It's a must try!

We had a wonderful dinner at Vernafern. Food was outstanding- we had the halibut cheek, sirloin steak, and the half chicken. Our server was very helpful and kind as well. Reasonably priced. You can grab drinks at hops and scotch and bring it over for your dinner. Would definitely go back.

Came here on my lunch break and the service was fast, the food was amazing and the atmosphere was relaxing. Highly recommend the parched pear salad and crab cake Sando, so good! Will definitely become a regular lunch choice for me!

I went here a couple of weeks ago and had an amazing experience this is definitely a hidden gem I will be going back for my birthday
Incredible is all I have to say. Finally got here today with a friend, and I was blown away. I didn't have many expectations b/c I didn't know much about the food they offer. WOW - they elevate classic food to a whole new level. You must get the polenta fries and the turkey club (the crisp pork belly and homemade white bread for the sandwich are OUT OF THIS WORLD). The flavors just melt in your mouth. Such an enjoyable lunch with a wonderful server.
