The Trappe Tavern — Restaurant in Trappe

The experience of the Trap tavern last night was nothing less than unsatisfying we ordered a steak sandwich and a BLT sandwich and a french onion soup to start that was our entire order It took me 20 minutes to get my French onion soup and another 45 minutes to wait for our regular food, there was no reason for this our server blamed it on the party of 100 people upstairs.. and the outdoor seating but I went and checked on both the upstairs party of hundred people already had their food.. it was catered there was food up there already and there was no a la carte of everybody ordering individual dishes. The outdoor seating area was not packed at all. and when we finally got our food The BLT sandwich that I had ordered the bacon was precooked and hard as a rock bacon should be freshly cooked and soft and chewy and a little bit crunchy it shouldn't be hard as a rock , the steak sandwich that my guest had also gotten was a prime rib sandwich, prime rib is expected to have some gristle on it and some fat but this was excessive if they need help in the kitchen or they need more staff they need to do so I don't know what's going on with this place but every waitress was apologizing to their table for the long wait that was extremely excessive we will not be returning to this place again . Please fix your...

First time here and I have to say our group wasn’t a fan and the experience was super disappointing. We first ordered a chips and queso appetizer with jalapeño (which we asked for no jalapeno). The appetizer came out with the jalapeños and to top it off they were super sour and old. Took the waitress 20+ minutes to come back, which was when our main meals were ready, and she hadn’t checked on us once since bringing our drinks initially.

Then for our main meals, one member of my group ordered Alfredo tortellini which was very overcooked and mush. Another member ordered crab cakes which ended up burnt on the outside and mush/undercooked on the inside. He returned them and didn’t get any other food. The fries tasted as if the oil that they were cooked in is super old and hasn’t been changed. Again our waitress disappeared and we couldn’t find her when we were ready to pay. One member of our group had to go find our waitress/staff member to pay. In which the cost of the bill wasn’t worth the food and service we received.

Overall it was a really bad first experience and we probably won’t return. We were barely here for an hour and the experience was nothing like...

The reviews make sense when you consider that their target demographic is older Caucasians. The menu is probably 75% sandwiches, nothing original.

On this visit, we were seated. The girl asked if we wanted anything to drink, then looked at me like I had 2 heads when I asked for a beer off the list.. then she walked away. About 10 minutes later a server showed up to ask again if we wanted drinks.

The food came out and it was...underwhelming/unacceptable. The "Nashville hot chicken sandwich" was covered in some kind of weird chili powder based paste/sauce that was awful. I don't understand how someone tasted that bs and decided it belonged on the menu. The server was cool about it and gave us a different sandwich. My wrap was soggy af, had obviously been sitting in liquid for a while..

All in all, I don't recommend this place. Troubles End is just down the road and they are worthy of the accolade "famous". trappe tavern absolutely is NOT and they should fire the kitchen staff.

This is the second time ever, that I have sent something back, but that sandwich was inedible. I suffered through the...
