Definitely a must stop when you are in Gettysburg – after all it is the oldest building there with a long history. We stopped here for an early dinner and had only a short wait. You walk down narrow old stairs to the quaint Pub. Quite comfortable and authentic feeling of the times. Tables are close together, but no one seems to mind. The servers are dressed in time period Colonial attire. They are very friendly and efficient – excellent service. We opted for drinks for starters – wine and root beer. Entrees included half rack of ribs with side salad and the swordfish special – both excellently cooked and yummy. Coffee and Cheesecake with blueberries for dessert was delightful. Highly Recommend. Wish we had more time to check out the building

This was our second time here! Thankfully we had made reservations way in advance because it was packed! We decided to have a romantic dinner for two and the food was superb. The presentation was beautiful and appetizing, the flavor was phenomenal, and I had the steak and lobster and the lobster tail was huge! The ambiance is definitely charming and romantic. The staff is super friendly, and the restaurant is clean. Great dinner! Cannot wait to eat here again!! ❤️

My wife and I received a gift certificate from her mom for Christmas. We had a date today and went for supper. Best joint gift we have ever received. Everything about our dining experience was amazing, from the gift shop to the service. Our waitress was awesome and very quick. We each had the French Onion soup and the Fillet Mignon. My wife had the house salad and I had the Ceasar salad. She had a regular baked potato and I had the baked sweet potato. We both agreed that it was the best steak we ever had and the salads were amazing as well. We, unfortunately, were unable to take the door as they had booked a private party in the museum portion. We will definitely be back and told her mom she can get us a gift card for the Dobbins House every year for Christmas. Take the time, make a reser

I had dinner with my family in the tavern and it was excellent. Best French onion soup I've ever had and the crab dip was awesome 👌 Kinda mad I never tried Dobbin House before!! Cute shop upstairs, too. Highly recommend. Good to go a bit early as it fills up quick.

My wife and I dined at the Dobbin House Tavern today and we were very impressed with the food and service. Kelly was an amazing server. She was pleasant, quick and professional at every step. We enjoyed the perfect soups we ordered as well as the Reuben and crab cake sandwich. You just don't receive this overwhelming professional dining experience everywhere. We were super impressed and will be back to enjoy this perfect tavern in Gettysburg. Thank-you.
