Flannery's Tavern on the Sq

User Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

Let's get one thing straight, although this place has been coined a "beer Bar" mainly because it has 20 draft selections; this tavern is a world class restaurant. My wife and anouther couple dined here last wednesday night, our second time , there first. I told them nothing of the place other than we are taking you out for dinner. My children and our friends attend school in Mercersburg, we drive 75 minutes one way to get here. That being said I would drive here at least once a month to dine even if I had no other reason.
We eat out often, at least 3 times a week in the greater D.C. area, and there is no better restaurant on our radar than this quaint little Irish pub. Do not let that fool you, there is very little Irish about this place other than the Guinness.
The cuisine is stellar, on our visit my wife had Kobe beef short ribs with cracked pepper spatzel, and roasted heirloom carrots, which was as good as anything that I have ever had dining out(and I managed Hyatt properties for 25 years). I was luky enough to get the last order of Kona coffe roasted bison tenderloin with pearled barley and cranberry risotto, served with french beand and a TRUE cranberry demi-glace. Remarkable.'
And the people serving us were obviously there to serve us and not turn tables.

And to top it off we had a bottle of fablous Spanish mencia!

And stopped at the bar on the way out for Framboise (ON TAP)! And the best chocolate cake I have ever had.

This place is in a league by itself!

Cudos!

See you at Flannerys'

what a great place! Food is VERY good. Service is excellent, and a very nice atmosphere.
This place is top-notch. You can tell that the staff and the cooks really care that you have a great dining experience, unlike some restaurants where the chefs could'nt make kraft mac and cheese correctly, and the waitresses care more about texting their boyfriends then tending to your table.

This place rocks! I rave about it to everyone.
