We were extremely pleased with our meal at Brookville Restaurant and TapHouse Bar. The atmosphere is like an old hotel from the 1870s. The menu is sort of like a prix fix. The fried chicken is excellent and includes all of the sides. Our server was extremely friendly and attentive. The old hotel rooms on the second floor are really fun to explore and the TapHouse bar is worth another five stars. Really fun and great food.

Not what it used to be. Glad I have the recipe cards for the AMAZING corn and coleslaw they used to serve. Both bowls of corn were cold, coleslaw is a different recipe than the original. Pickles were still good. Chicken was good. But so sad that those sides aren't like they used to be. Google the original recipes that you could buy on postcards. I've used them for 40 years at least and they are amazing!

Surprise ending ! The meal and service were very good. However, they neglected to tell us drinks were extra, so I added soda. Then after a nice meal was asked if we would like me refills, I said sure but wanted to limit soda so asked if I could switch to coffee. The waitress was very kind and said sure. It was good coffee also. So here the catch. There is no Menu. They place a bill that said chicken and emphasized it is served family style. Had no idea it was going to cost an extra $8+ for for a 8oz soda and a cup of coffee!🫣

The fried chicken was a bit overrated since it could use some more seasoning, the breast was a little bit dry. At least the breading was well-seasoned. The sides especially the fruits were overrated to since the pears had a slight mealy texture to it. On the bright side, the mashed potatoes and creamed corn were delicious along with the rolls. The cole slaw was a little too sweet. The ice cream however was not very creamy since there were some ice chunks in it. The dining room was well-decorated with late 19th-century era furnishings and decorations. The experience was good since I've came in with an empty stomach, left with my stomach full at the end of the meal including ice cream, and the staff were friendly.

Been eating at the Bville for over 20 years ! Wonderful and the fried chicken is delicious. Now it is owned by the Munson’s who ran a fabulous steak house in Junction city. All the meat comes from the Munson’s farm. The steak is as great as the chicken. The historic atmosphere is unmatched. There is a historic museum upstairs showing the hotel rooms as they were a century or more ago. The bar tap room has gorgeous murals too. Friendly and quality service. Enjoy!!!

We have eaten at Brookville hotel many times even when they were located at Brookville, KS. This is our first time eating here since the new ownership took over. We live 3 hours away and would either make a special trip out or try to time it when they were open when traveling. We got there when it was opening on Thursday and did not have reservations, They were able to sit us in the dining room. We sat there several minutes before anyone came to our table. Finally, a young man came with water and brought slaw in a bowl with a couple roughly cut peaches and a couple pickles on the side. We asked about cottage cheese that they have previously served but said they no longer offered that. Later the waitress came and brought our chicken and sides and never asked if we wanted more slaw as we had devoured that. The mashed potatoes and gravy were very dry, lumpy and room temperature. I actually thought maybe it was sausage gravy due to the large lumps but was not. The creamed corn was cold but the chicken was hot! We had emptied the bowls and sat there for at least 10 min before she returned and asked us if we wanted anything more?? We thought maybe the food would be warmer but was not! We asked if they had strawberry preserves like we had previously, but she said only on request. We had the "homemade ice cream"---It was maybe homemade, but very crystally and freezer burned. We could have understood poor/slow service if they were busy, but there was only one other party of 4 in the restaurant at the time. We are going to tell our family who have also made the effort to visit Brookville, if they are hungry for fried chicken, we would suggest KFC or Go Chicken Go instead of Brookville.

I give this 5 stars because the entire experience was wonderful! We were seated and asked what meat we'd like to have and our drinks We ordered the beef and the chicken. It was all delicious and big portions! Our server had several tables but she kept our drinks full, was friendly and let us know the status of our food. The hotel and restaurant were very clean and beautiful. You can tell the food was homemade and quality made. And the ice cream was a special added touch.
