Duvall Grill and Tap Room

What a cute little place! My friends and I stopped here after a hike at Cherry Creek Falls to get our traditional after hike brewski and some nibbles. We walked into the restaurant side and were greeted by a friendly smiling woman, who directed us to the bar side when we asked. We walk into the bar side to see cozy booths and many beer taps. Yesssss.... my precious...

We sit down and our server is just a doll! So friendly and warm, I felt like I was in someones home. I got a delicious beer, Schoolhouse Pale Ale and the largest BLT I had ever seen in my entire life. In fact, the gal who brought it to the table laughed because she thought it had to be for one of the men folk I was dining with. Nope, it was for little ole me. A table behind us got what looked to be some amazing fish and chips, and my friends split a Reuben and a Caesar salad.

Everyone enjoyed their choices and the respite from the great outdoors. I had half of a gigantic BLT along with a heaping portion of sweet potato fries to take home with me, because it was all just too large to consume at the time.

Loved this little spot. Will definitely be back the next time I happen to be in Duvall.

Cute small down ambiance reminiscent of Cheers!  

I've had the wings and wild boar fries several times, and always they're consistently great!  When they have their fried chicken on special, it would be criminal not to order it...the batter is out of this world yet the chicken is tender and not dried out.  The short ribs are a bit too mushy and fatty for my taste but the grits that come with it could compete with good ole' fashion Charleston grits.  
I usually sit at the bar area because I like to try their new beers on tap, and there's always something new to try!  Though I found this place by accident after a long day working on the farm, I now make a special detour to drop by.  The staff is super friendly and I never feel out of place in my riding breeches and boots!

The price of my meal was not justified by its taste.  I had the classic cheeseburger and honestly nothing about it really wowed me.  I found it to be flavorless and a little dry, I didn't like the bun, and my sweet potato fries were highly disappointing. And sweet potato fries are high on my list of favorite things.  They were very mushy/soggy and yet burnt.  It's hard to describe, but they were not good.  My husband enjoyed his blue cheese burger and our friends enjoyed their meals (they both got the specials for the night - one was fish and the other steak), but commented on the hefty price tag for their experience as well.

We found ourselves here on a Friday night around 8 p.m. with some friends who live in town.  The grill is small and the entrance is awkward, making us constantly dodge customers entering and leaving for the 20 minutes we were waiting for a table.  Though the restaurant was clearing out, service was a bit slow...we were in a corner and I felt like we had to track down our waitress a few times.
