New American Restaurants near Hanover, VA

“Our small wedding party (10) dined at Hanover Tavern after our late morning wedding on a Friday! The atmosphere was very nice and cozy and the staff was delightful and attentive. Our server Lisa did an exceptional job taking care of our orders and the food was absolutely delicious, portions were larger than expected, and pricing was fair for the quality of food and service we received. The grounds are very pretty and we loved that we could explore the tavern after our meal and shop from their gift shop. I would absolutely recommend this historical restaurant for those who like pub style dining with comfort food flair. My entire party was 100% happy with our dining experience at the Hanover Tavern!!! Thank you for making my special day even more special!“

“Stopped in for lunch. It was very busy as the hostess was dealing with two large groups. She apologized repeatedly. I understood and was patient (I'm never in a rush to rush others). I ordered the mini burger, chicken tenders and fries for my two children. My wife had the hangover burger with a lemon drop martini. I had the fried fish Gripper (it was huge). The flavor and crust was perfect. They have a great beer selection. There were no IPA's on tap so I had the Lost Coast Tangerine Wheat. Our server, Taylor, was amazing and attended to every requests quickly. Thank you for being awesome!“

“McCoy our server is the best server Kreggers has had in 4 Years. Wonderful customer service, a cut above the others for sure. He makes you feel like family and every need is taken care of before you need to ask. The food here, the burgers are the best. McCoy should train the other servers because he gas a gift many don't have.“

“Thought they were more of a place that served pub food, but they are actually closer to a higher end restaurant. Even though they do have some sandwiches, their main entrées are more elaborate. The atmosphere is really cool, and we ended up sitting outside. Ashland is such a quaint little town. They're right on the railroad tracks, and a train comes by probably every 15 to 20 minutes or so. Took my family because my wife hadn't seen the new Secretariat statue yet, and she wanted to, so we went there for lunch. It's a pretty big place with lots of feeding inside, a bar area, and then outdoor seating. We got a large pretzel for an appetizer. My daughter got a double cheeseburger, I got the meatloaf dinner, and my mother-in-law and wives split a wedge salad. Overall, the food was pretty good. Not a cheap place, some entrées were in the high $20's and $30 range. Staff was very nice and sweet, but kept forgetting things and didn't come by that often. We waited quite a while for our food, and mine came out cold. Luckily, I don't mind cold meatloaf, but the mashed potatoes weren't that good this way. It's an old staple of the area, so I'd probably try again for more of a special occasion. We did get to see Mr. Jingles, bike ride around and put a little show on.“
