Before I go in to it originally being from MD I must confess I’m very particular when it comes to crab cakes. The crab cakes are not what I saw on other reviews, lots of filler with mostly shred and some lumps. The smoked chicken from the bbq pit was very moist and tasty. The service was ok but not very attentive even though it wasn’t that busy. The ambiance is great and what you would expect from a historical district. I gave a 4 overall I recommend the smoked chicken but I do not recommend the crab cake if you are from MD.

Great pulled pork sandwich, smoked right in front of the restaurant. In fact, I smelled it while driving by and just had to turn around and have lunch here. My waitress Jessie was very pleasant and helpful, and the place is very cozy with ample seating and a nice bar. They actually surprised me with a few non-alcohol beers to choose from. If you’re in the area and can’t deal with finding a parking spot down the street in the historic section, you can’t beat The Anvil (open Thur-Sun, I noticed). They also have PLENTY of parking.

This place has fallen on hard times since the original founder died. I read that on their website he passed right before the pandemic. The new owner is combative and not very accommodating to their customers. They are short handed and have had to cut back on the beer garden, and the patio seating. This restaurant used to be a fun place to go to, but now that is all gone. I ordered the baby back ribs for lunch, and they came out dry. Took the restaurant over an hour to cook the food. The servers are argumentative, and combative at this place. I called to the restaurant to speak to the owner after the way I was treated and the owner screamed at me. I fail to see how being rude and combative to customers will help save a small business. The prices have gone up, and a lot what is advertised on the restaurant’s website is gone. Definitely missing the old place, and shocked to what this restaurant has not become.

A gem in the mountains! Absolutely delicious and exciting food options. Best fried mushrooms I have had. Great crab dip. Awesome service too. The inside is dated, but we loved sitting outside at one of the two tables out there. Don’t pass up a chance to enjoy a meal at The Anvil.

Great meal, very satisfying. Loved Maryland crab soup, Vodka seafood meal! Jessie our waitress was outstanding. She was knowledgeable, kind & so very gracious & courteous. She helped us with our great meal choices! Also we left a sweatshirt in the booth & she chased out out on the street to return it!!! That’s service! When visiting HF again will definitely stop here again! Thank you!

My wife and I came to Harper’s Ferry for a long weekend and had dinner at The Anvil. The restaurant was extremely clean. Alyssa was our waitress and we couldn’t have asked for better service. I had the best steak I’ve ever had. Their Mac and Cheese was delicious. The Cole Slaw was very good. I would really recommend this restaurant.

Our waitress Jessie made our evening at The Anvil fantastic! She insured that my husband’s meal was indeed gluten-free as requested. We both had the crab soup as an appetizer. Absolutely delicious! The ribs and chicken were incredible. Meat on the ribs simply fell off the bone. The smoked mac & cheese to die for. And the giant scoop of vanilla ice cream with caramel sauce was the perfect ending. Jessie was so personable and friendly. We can’t wait to go back!
