Our daughter was hungry so went here not long before they closed to get food for her. She had a smoked duck sandwich which was very good. I’ve never seen this offered on a menu, great idea. The duck was shredded and moist. The sauce was slightly sweet, which went well with the duck. My husband and I shared fried artichoke hearts. They were great, nicely battered and fried. And came with an herby sauce. The portion was a good size.

Legitimately one of the best customer service experiences I’ve had. Our server was fantastic! She was very helpful and nice, and you could tell she genuinely liked her job and it wasn’t an act.

Food was also fantastic! A little greasy, but very good! I would definitely return!

We were just passing through. We really liked the restaurant. We ordered pasta with mushrooms, a sandwich, and fish. Everything was very delicious. The service was good. The prices were affordable.

Wait staff was excellent. Food for the most part was pretty good. Breakfast pizza was boring. Menu variety is amazing though, so many tempting items.

My recent visit to Melville Tavern was an absolute delight from start to finish. As soon as we walked in, we were warmly greeted by the host and promptly seated at a spacious table for our party of four. The ambiance was cozy with its low lighting and inviting atmosphere, setting the perfect stage for a memorable dining experience.

The menu boasted an impressive array of options, making it difficult to choose just a few dishes. To start, we indulged in the mozzarella and spinach artichoke dip, both of which exceeded our expectations. The housemade mozzarella sticks were a standout, impressing us with their cheesy goodness and generous portion size. The spinach dip was equally delightful, offering a tangy freshness that left us craving more.

For my main course, I opted for the blackened chicken Alfredo, and I’m so glad I did. The decision to use rigatoni pasta instead of the typical fettuccine was a stroke of genius, as it perfectly complemented the creamy Alfredo sauce and flavorful blackened chicken. Each bite was a symphony of flavors, leaving me thoroughly satisfied.

From the friendly service to the delectable food, every aspect of our dining experience exceeded expectations. Whether you’re craving a casual meal with friends or a special night out, this tavern is sure to impress. Be sure to try the blackened chicken Alfredo – it’s an absolute must-try!

There is something uplifting about this place with its book shelves. The buffalo chicken pizza was top notch, and was destroyed by us! The spicy honey glazed pork belly was like meat candy! The blackened chicken sandwich was super fresh. One person brought us a dessert that we hadn’t ordered , but it was replaced with the correct one super quick. I would definitely recommend the apple crisp! With an absolutely delicious crumbly coating, it tasted like heaven. This place also has a jar of cute treats for your pup.

Super good wings, burgers and sandwiches! The service was awesome, super quick and really attentive. The vibe of the place was relaxed and the decorations/history was interesting. Slightly pricey for a burger but it was super good and i’d get it again. I’d recommend the blackened chicken sandwich the most!

I loved the atmosphere here, sitting outside on a beautiful night with some great music there isn’t much better.The Blackend Chicken Alfredo was definitely our favorite, along with an Ace Pineapple Cider. Some food was missing some salt but overall everything was pretty good. They offer a nice variety of adult beverages as well, there’s definitely something for everyone here. I would definitely come back just to enjoy a bite and a drink on the patio.

Went on a Sunday after the brunch crowd. We were told it would be a minute or two wait, but it ended up being 20 minutes. We were okay with that as we chose to sit outside, and it was a really nice day. (Inside had plenty of open seating and the hostess did ask if we would rather be seated immediately inside.)

We didn’t order drinks and, clearly, our waitress wasn’t thrilled with that choice. We could tell as soon as she took our drink orders. We did, however, order two orders of wings for appetizers. We had three people in our party.

We had a food allergy in our party and the waitress didn’t want to be bothered with a question or two, and kind of threw an attitude about this. Which was VERY disappointing. The waitress forgot to bring out the requested condiments, and after asking she still forgot them. She also never refreshed our drinks. She did ask if we wanted refills on our drinks as we were paying our bill – a little late and I think she just didn’t want to be bothered with getting them, and knew we would say’ “ no thanks” because we were already gathering our items to leave.

The food was served hot and looked great when it came out, but the burger was slightly under seasoned. The meatloaf definitely was under seasoned, but the food was pretty good otherwise. The cauliflower that was served with the meatloaf was cooked from a frozen mix and had zero salt or seasoning on it. Pulled pork sandwich came out buttered (even though we requested it dry due to the food allergy.) The fries were crispy and creamy in the middle – the best part of our meal.

So now we have tried Melville’s in-house and we did take-out previously. Ironically, take-out was over salted. So, maybe it is consistency that needs to be looked at.

I will say that those with drinks looked happy and seemed to really be enjoying their meal. Maybe we should have just stuck with a mimosa or two.

All in all, I’d say give it a try but hope you get a helpful server. I think the experience might have been better if we would have had someone helpful and who wanted to be there. We usually tip really well because we know jobs in the service industry are really demanding and they can be hard, but we couldn’t justify leaving a great tip for poor service on this visit.

We probably won’t visit again, as there are so many wonderful restaurants in the area that combine amazing service and delicious food.

Quite a nice place with a variety of food options. A little bit on the expensive side, but totally worth it. The staff were generally friendly, but the kitchen staff took a bit of time. Despite that, I would say the wait was worth it. The food that came out was just amazing. Really enjoyed the food, the atmosphere and the overall ambience of the place.
