Pennytown Pub — Restaurant in Hopewell Township

Loved our Cobb Salad! Sooooooo good! A friend and I wandered in a little after 8 pm on a Wednesday. They would be closing in about an hour and we didn't want to eat something heavy so we ordered the cobb salad and it was delicious! The best bacon, the best everything was in this salad! We loved the dressing, and he even mixed it up for us so we didn't have to do it ourselves! The service was a little lacking, not attentive, and they weren't even that busy. But the one thing we really did not like is that they charged three dollars for a refill on a half finished coke. So $6.00 for soda! Not cool! TELL US THAT BEFORE YOU REFILL IT! And it was half a glass. We thought the refills were free. When we saw the bill, I was pissed! Despite that, the food that was coming out of the kitchen was incredible looking for other tables and we will definitely be back even just based on the great salad we had! The chef was out by our table and even asked how we enjoyed the food and I really appreciated that he really cares about what comes out of his kitchen and he's an amazing chef! They added some new items to the menu, so we're definitely going back to try some more amazing food! Food 5 stars, service 3 stars and food is pricey, (which we were told before we got there by others) but you know what? I'd rather spend a little extra and get a good decent meal with good quality ingredients, then pay for junk food. So to us, the prices are irrelevant as long as we enjoyed the food and it's of good quality. Which it is! Our cobb salad was $19.00 with no protein. But it was so delicious. It was worth every penny! Kudos to the chef for great food and a menu that really caters to a bunch of different tastes, and I love all the...

Had to go pick up an etched bottle of wine commemorating the Eagles win nearby so we tried it and I was blown away. It’s small but we were there at 4, so that wasn’t an issue. Husband got the buffalo wings, I got fish and chips and we shared lobster mac and cheese. Also got zucchini fritte for an app. Husband prefers thinner zucchini; I loved that they were thick and you could taste the zucchini. They were piping hot and super crisp. Husband said the wings were really good and the blue cheese dip was great. I am a huge fan of fish and chips and have eaten it all over the globe. Pennytown Pub has one of the best ones I’ve eaten. Nice thin batter, thick, flaky fish. Homemade chips (wedges). They were served with malt vinegar, as all fish and chips should be. Mac and cheese was decadent. Delicious spiral pasta and rich creamy cheese sauce with a very generous amount of lobster. Ended the meal with one of the dessert specials of Chocolate chip mousse. So much food - packed up half of everything for another meal. Can’t...

I was really disappointed with my recent visit to Penny Town Pub. The experience fell short from start to finish.

We waited around 20 minutes just to receive menus, and our drink order was incorrect when it finally arrived. The food took an unusually long time to come out, and when it did, it was cold — not to mention, they brought the wrong pizza to our table. The restaurant was nearly empty, so the slow service was especially surprising.

Our server, Liam, mentioned he was new, which we appreciated him sharing, but overall the service and coordination were lacking. Even getting the check took longer than it should have.

This place just doesn’t compare to what Union Boil used to offer. Unfortunately, I won’t be returning...
