Stouch Tavern

AWSOME dinner! & the service was outstanding! I loved everything about this evening — from the food to the wonderful building. Thank you.

If you are looking for an elegant, romantic dinner or a just relaxing place to enjoy a home cooked meal with your family, I recommend the Stouch Tavern. I have been there a dozens of times and each time is as good if not better than the last. The food is absolutely delicious and homemade! They have great service (I am not picky and understand my server has to wait on other tables). The atmosphere is very quiet and relaxing. The tavern is inside a historical home so if you’re into history you will enjoy the atmosphere. If your from the Gettysburg area, the Stouch Tavern reminds me of the Dobbin House just smaller and people aren’t wearing civil war attire!

UNBELIEVABLE STEAK, SEAFOOD & DESSERT (especially dessert)!
Here is a list of words that best describe the flavor of the food at Stouch Tavern: delicious, mouthwatering, wonderful, unimaginable, delectable, astounding, incomprehensible, succulent, ridiculous, ridonkulous, scrumptious, breathtaking, scrumdidilyumptious, erotic, stupendous, flabbergasting & tasty.
You take a step into 18^th century Colonial America when you vie for a table at this historic eatery; one that in which General George Washington himself once dined at (and according to a web page I saw, he even gave a speech from the front porch). For all intents and purpose, this tavern is remarkably similar in almost every fashion to the manner in which it was over 200 years ago, or at least that’s my understanding of it. And what I mean by that is the layout of the building, room design, décor, menu, etc. Even the arch over the driveway to the back of the restaurant where the parking lot is seems wide enough that only a horse could fit through it, and here you are driving your car through it!
Personally, I believe the seafood it’s the bee’s knees at Stouch Tavern. I’ve had the Baked Stuffed Flounder and I highly recommend it, however on my most recent trip I had the Crabmeat Au Gratin, and I feel that I’ve never had anything like this dish before. They must have put a pound of crab and two pounds of cheese and butter into this dish. It’s as good as it gets.
The dessert is out of this world. You NEED to get either the Bananas Foster or the Cherries Jubilee, or man up and get both. They flambé it right there at your table and serve it up hot. You’ll be charged by the person and they ensure there’s plenty to go around.
(The curious use of the word erotic to describe Stouch Tavern: you should learn that there’s nothing sexier than cherries jubilee!)

Nice quiet little spot in womelsdorf. Building is dated but in a historic way. Service was friendly and very attentive. Started with the crab bisque. It was ok. Would recommend trying the French onion instead. Salad was fresh as were the side vegetables. The couple next to us had the Caesar salad for two which is prepared table side. Looked good, might be something to try. I had the veal madalions, thought they average. She had crab au gratin, prob one of the best dishes I ever tried. Recommend the spinach as a side.
Only suggestion would be to have the giant fire place blazing.

Have eaten three or four times. Favorite restaurant of my elderly aunt. Sunday Brunch is excellent. Great, friendly service too. Reasonable (but not cheap) prices.

I have so many wonderful memories at the Stouch Tavern. This is a hometown culinary gem in a beautiful colonial setting. I have never had better French Onion soup anywhere. Wait staff is attentive and friendly. Bread pudding is to die for — again have never had better. Worth the meander into Womelsdorf.

The best. Atmosphere is unbeatable and the food is the best. Seafood Thermadore & House beef madalions are a must. Along with the best cesar salad in the world.

We dined here for my Grandma’s birthday a few years ago. It was pretty tasty, with basic food and a crazy old atmosphere. It was nice, for what it is, but it is not someplace I would go on a regular basis. It was perfect for a large family party where we used the large main room and all of the tables to celebrate. They were able to get our food quickly and it was very consistent in quality.

The restaurant is in a very small, but historic town in Pennsylvania, out in the boondocks (just the way I like it!). The building itself is extremely old and the vibes are otherworldly. The dining rooms are small and cozy…
It’s definitely not cheap, but the quality of the food is impressive, most certainly worth the price. The service is awesome, they roll your meals out on sweet silver carts… so fancy.
I ordered the salmon and it was perfect… served with bread, veggies, and salad.
The wine was pretty good too.
