8 Best Gastropubs near Herndon

“Bartender was so bubbly and the tater tots so crispy and delicious 🤤🥔“

“I got the Penne Pesto Pasta. It has a parmesan pesto cream sauce with grape tomatoes, peas, asparagus, and artichoke hearts. Add chicken.

The pasta sauce was absolutely delicious but there were so many things going on, it was too much. If it was any one or 2 of those vegetables it would've been fine but every single bite had a new texture, new shapes, and new flavor. Overall the dish was overwhelming but enjoyable nonetheless. I added chicken to the pasta which was also good, though a bit dry. I would come back to the restaurant, I probably would not get the penne pesto pasta again, I would give 3.5 stars if I could.“

“Was looking forward to trying The Wine House. Read great reviews and Restaurant Week seemed a good way to sample the menu. We were pleasantly greeted by the hostess. The place is cute and casual, tho the food more upscale. Our food was very good, tho my spouse thought the lamb shank was dry. The chicken piccata was a different presentation - whole chicken breast in more of a light creamy sauce. Both entrees would have benefitted from a touch of salt. Our appetizers and desserts were very good.
Despite reading many reviews about great customer service and education about wine pairings and such, we received none of that. Our server was more going through the motions, offered no explanations when we said it was our first time here, no wine or food recommendations. He seemed rather distracted. The table next to us received the wrong bill.
Maybe our expectations were too high for a more engaging experience.
Still worth trying the place out.“

“Feel good and safe with healthy food and good atmosphere . love it“

“All around great bar and great bartenders!“

“Many thanks to Max and everyone at Ornery Public House in Fairfax City for helping my wife give me a great party.“

“Don't write many reviews but had to offset the one current negative review. This is not a full blown sports bar but serves one of the best burgers in the area and the wings are very good. Also have an excellent rotating selection of ~20 beers on tap. There is one big screen and several hanging TVs. Yes its the dining area at Whole Foods with a limited menu but the food/beer are worth a visit IMO.“

“Very nice hotel restaurant. People visit despite not staying at the hotel. I’ve had both breakfast and dinner here and the service and food is very good. I don’t find it to be a British pub but apparently it is. As you’d expect, the liquor, wine and beer lists are very extensive. The wings are great and so is the burger. They have a few sweet options if you’re looking for that as well. Seating is first come first serve and usually pretty active in the evening regardless of day of the week. Mornings seem to be a bit less busy but the coffee is good, hot and fresh!“
