Nice place to stop and grap a drink or some food. The menu had a nice selection. There was bar food, appetizers, and dinners on the menu. We got wings. They were chicken wings. Would definitely go back and try one of the dinner options. I recommend the cheesesteak egg rolls for a starter.

Not the Place it used to be... In past 25 years of deer season Venture Inn was always a good place to eat dinner. Not for me anymore. Ordered a steak sandwich and there was more bun than steak and not very tasteful. Just 2 minute steaks with some melted American cheese drizzled on top. In the past, food portions were always generous and definitely more tasteful. I immediately noticed the new owners removed seating behind the bar for a pool table. Maybe that generates more income?

Great roadside bar. We had drinks and the pretzel appetizer with beer cheese. Highly recommend! Staff was super.

Food was good, service was excellent and atmosphere was styled to the area. Only negative was screaming/crying child.

First time in. Our server was very friendly and seemed nice. The restaurant was out of 2 of the 3 things I asked for. We were served our starters and salad without being given silverware. The cook forgot to drop a fried appetizer so we waited on that. When the meals came my wings ( 6garlic hot & 6 garlic parm ) came out absolutely covered with brined garlic to the point that it overwhelmed the meal and made the meat taste sour and inedible. Our waitress was kind and comped the chicken . Nice casual atmosphere. Outdoor dining available in a pretty location. Sweet staff. The food leaves a lot to be desired .
