We heard of The Schoolhouse Tavern from a friend. We traveled and hour and a half to try it for pur anniversary. It did not disappoint. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere and staff were welcoming and inviting. Our server, Mike, was fantastic and was very personable and informative on all the dishes. For appetizers we had the brie and the beet salad. Exceptional! For dinner I ordered the special that day, which was the pan seared red snapper, and my husband ordered their famous meatloaf (not your momma's meatloaf). To round it off, we had the Limoncello Cheesecake for dessert. The dishes were out of this world! The flavors of all components of the dishes, and their eye to detail, surpassed all of our expectations. The plating was gorgeous, as well. They deserrve a Micheline Star! I would venture to say that the Schoolhouse Tavern is one of the best restaurants in our area. We will be back!
The best meal from our vacation! Everything was beyond delish. The fritters and ravioli are 10/10 appetizers. I had the salmon and it was my favorite risotto ever. Ended the meal with creme brulee and it was excellent. Will definitely be back when in the area.
We had our wedding at the School House Restaurant and Tavern and it was amazing! The food was phenomenal and the service was perfect. Sarah was great as our coordinator and she helped us plan the perfect day! I can't say enough about how easy she made everything for us...it was all handled with zero stress for us and our families. It was fantastic and we got several compliments from our guests that it was the best wedding they'd ever attended!
Alright, I finally stopped into Schoolhouse after 5 years living on the mountain tonight. The old fashioned was amazing, had two. The meatloaf… delicious… the gravy succulent, spinach perfect, meatloaf itself perfection, as well as the mash… I had two. Thanks to Amy the bartender for the service/recommendation, Sydnie the musician for the set & smiles. Definitely an amazing ambiance to stop into the tavern side and have a bite and beverage. I’ll be swinging by anytime I’m back this way.
The School House is truly a hidden gem. We had dinner reservations with another couple and were seated right away. There was a brief wait before our server came by, but once they did, everything flowed smoothly.
We ordered drinks and dinner, and the presentation was absolutely beautiful—every dish looked as good as it tasted. The food itself was outstanding and clearly made with care.
While it is on the pricier side, it’s well worth it if you’re looking to enjoy a high-quality dining experience. We’d definitely return for another special night out.
