   Lovely restored Inn with lots of character. Service friendly and timely. Food very good. The only issue we had was the limited menu with mostly non traditional choices. Other than that great experience! Would go back again

   The food was ok, but over priced. My breakfast potatoes were burnt. Our server cared more about her conversation with the bartender then anything else. She also didn’t tell me that soda refills were not free. Our coffee mugs were dirty. Only real good thing I can say is that the place was cute.

    Fantastic brunch spot! We were there with a fussy toddler, and the staff was so wonderful and accommodating. The food was fantastic, ambiance great. Towards the end a guitar duo started playing, very pleasant volume and really added to it.

    Very limited graduation menu at a high fixed price. Food was ok, but frankly well below expectations - particularly for the price. Sort of struck me as a “catered” meal effort at some fund raiser event. Night before we had a far superior meal at a competitor that was superb across the board and far cheaper. Might give it another try with a full menu, but they really missed the opportunity to impress us with a fairly weak effort for a high price. Many other good choices in C’ville.

    I never give a bad review but unfortunately this disappointed on most fronts. It took half hour before our drinks even arrived. Appetizers were decent. Dinner meats were heavily salted (hamburger) and overall the experience wasn’t enjoyable which was a disappointment given it was a graduation weekend dinner for four in a city where there is amazing dining at every turn.

    The food was uneven in quality. When your best fare is the French fries, there is a problem with the food. The food prices also were far in excess of the food quality. The service was attentive and fine at first, but it trailed off significantly as the meal progressed. Plates and glasses were left on the table long after they were finished. But worst of all were the pieces of plastic — one small and the other large — that were in the soup. Eventually the waiter told us that the plastic was from a broken mixer used in the kitchen. He further said that the restaurant would not charge us for the plastic-laiden soup, but when the bill arrived — delivered by a waiter trainee on her first night of work rather than our waiter or the manager — the billed included a full charge for the soup. Talk about adding insult to injury. For all these reasons, I encourage the restaurant to commit itself to high quality food and service and potential diners to find another restaurant in Charlottesville until that is done. This advice come from a person who is engaged in the hospitality business — a high-end B&B — who knows the quality of meals and service that can and should be delivered to patrons.

    This restaurant is struggling from shortness of staff and quality of service and food for the price. Currently I do not recommend Tavern & Grocery.

    It feels like a very special place to experience. The atmosphere is like a cute house not a restaurant. You really are treated like a guest. It’s small and comfy, they think about small details like fresh cut flowers and small lamps at each table. It’s super stylish with a mix of old and touch of modern. The food was great, we had the salmon tartar (absolutely delicious), duck breast, and the thyme creme brûlée. My husband had the old fashioned cocktail and he loved. I had the local sparkling wine suggested and I really enjoyed. The music is just perfect for the ambiance. I never felt rushed just wanted to stay longer and we will be back!

    This was how we ordered! Cocktails, appetizers, entree. 10 minutes later the appetizers arrive at the table. I asked for my cocktail. They said it will be a few minutes. Meanwhile the bartender made and delivered drinks to three other tables. Also taking a few minutes to chat with people at the bar and offering to buy them another round. Still no drink (house old fashion and a ginger ale). With now a cold appetizers in front of me, they deliver the ginger ale and said the drink was on its way. Drink arrive, tasted the appetizers with the drink and set the appetizers aside to finish the drink. A few sips and then the entrée arrived. I asked her what was wrong at this table. I could have done McDonalds for the same dining experience! THE REST OF THE EVENING WAS VISITATIONS FROM MANGERS . Still they asked for a 18% tip as their suggested tip!

    We had the Arctic Char, Atlantic Cod and Brussels Sprouts with rice pudding for dessert. All of this was amazing. Only recommendation is to offer heating up the rice pudding for those who like it warm vs. cold. Service was excellent. The ambiance with soft jazz music playing in the background made for a great date night for my husband and I.

    It was our first visit, my sister and I from the Midwest and myself from the DC area. The meal was exceptional, so far as the meal, beverage, and presentation are concerned. The service was excellent also and we did not have to wait long for our order. The dining service in many places is a crapshoot these days with staffing issues and food quality that is average. This was a welcome treat. Oh, and did I mention the music? It was an additional spice to the already awesome experience. We will be back during our next visit to Charlottesville. Many thanks.

    They had live music that precluded any thought of conversation. Fortunately, it was a perfect day for sitting outdoors. They were gracious in our request to be seated in a manner that was unexpected.

    Table seating was very exposed to the chill of every front door opening which made dining very uncomfortable. Bison was not cooked to satisfaction. It arrived cold. The best part of the dining experience was leaving the chilly table to move to the bar after the meal. Wonderful barman (service and stories)! I’ll return, but will eat at the bar next time.
