The Tavern In Old Salem

Is the Tavern still closed? If so, it's a shame. Been going there since I was a kid in High Point. Great food and wonderful experience. Now I live in Louisiana. Would like a taste of the 18th century type meal I remember. When it opens again, I'll be there!

I got the Pot Roast, my husband got their Chicken Livers, both were served with mashed potatoes and green beans. Simply delicious. Chocolate Burbon Pecan pie topped my meal off and my husband ordered Fresh Apple cake both were amazing. The service was excellent. They also brought a basket of muffins. So take a afternoon walk around Old Salem then eat at the Tavern you will not be disappointed!

Accommodating and conversational staff. We arrived 45 minutes before lunch ended without a reservation, but they seated us immediately. It was the second day they reopened after the holidays (they close for about a month) and were very busy; however, there wasn't a long wait for our food. The waitress shared about the history of the area and recommended things to do in both Old Salem and downtown. We followed her recommendations and had a great time! They recommend reservations for all meals. I tried calling during lunch and no one picked up the phone, so I would say to call beforehand. Again, just stopping in worked for us. We will probably return to try more food! What we had was delicious and decently priced for lunch. I would like to try the quality of the more-expensive dinner plates.

A meal at The Tavern is an experience. Since it’s located in Old Salem, it’s like stepping back into the past. The waitstaff are dressed in period costumes. The decor is simple and rustic. The food is delicious. Be sure to make a reservation since it gets busy.

Good menu-I wish we could have tried more. The desserts looked and sounded amazing. The fried okra was very good and the pretzel was tasty (watch out for the horseradish in the mustard sauce!) Decor and wait staff are according to the old time period (early 1900s?). Reasonable pricing and convenient when seeing Old Salem. Parking available on the street or visitor center.

Wonderful/wunderbar pot roast with mashed potatoes and green beans. Just baked love rolls and pumpkin muffins. And finish with the gingerbread desert is our favourite. The service in the bar room was terrific at 11 am this morning. Perfect luncheon.

The food was amazing! Service? Not so much. Our apps came with the meal. Then we were brought the wrong dessert. The server kept blaming the kitchen printer. But she is the one who brought the wrong order, and didn't bother checking on the apps when an inappropriate amount of time had passed.

Great experience in this historical village. The food is awesome sourced from local farms. Wine and beer selections are awesome and local as well. Never disappointed.
