    We were visiting from Western New York and were recommended to go to the Continental Tavern. The one who recommended it gave us a brief description of the restaurant and its history. We loved the design of the restaurant. The server did a good job and was a pleasure to talk with. Once she heard of our interest in the history of the restaurant she arranged a meeting with the general manager, Chris. Chris set up a video for us to watch that covered the establishment's history. It was very informative. He also took us on a tour to see the different floors of the building that held a lot of historical significance. Wow! So cool! Thanks Chris. We look forward to going back and would recommend the Continental Tavern to anyone.

    Visited the Continental Tavern while staying in Yardley Pennsylvania and the experience was amazing A historic Tavern in a beautiful town, with artifacts discovered while renovating the lower part of the building Incredible artifacts from the prohibition speakeasy era, but the most interesting was a secret room which was a stop in the Underground Railroad passage. Thank you to the General Manager Chris Mascio for the great video and tour! The food was amazing and delicious and staff and service excellent. Also want to thank the owner Frank Lyons who took the time to sit and explain to me the history of the establishment . Can't wait to visit again

    Looking for a spot where you can have something to eat and enjoy historical feature in Yardley, PA? There is this restaurant that boast on its historical value. It was an underground railway passage. We went for a tour after our lunch where the hostess showed us where the underground passage was. It was pretty interesting to see the past kept in pristine condition where you're able to peek in to see and touch a little bit of the past. The service was quick, we came in right before a wave of people starting to pour in, before noon. At first they served a small sized steak and the waitress said that we're going to have a second plate because the steak size was smaller than what it was indicated which was 8 oz. So they did well on that. The steak was ordered medium rare and was aged. I can tell it was aged because the texture of the meat was different, it almost melts in the mouth. I decided to ask the waitress if it was air dried for aging but apparently she's not sure so we asked the main hostess and she's not sure how long it was aged. Sometimes it well do well when hostess or waiters/waitresses know how their food was prepared because that adds interest to would be patron. Anyway, I'll go back for the steak alone. It's a bit pricey on the side but it's worth it. The mushroom soup is also pretty good, creamy texture with almost earthy taste. The salmon is just a ho-hum, you can tell if it's fresh based on texture of the salmon meat but this one is little bit on the dry side. Ambience is typical of a pub. Restroom is clean both upstairs and one near the bar. The place is pretty small and can be a little crowded. Just be prepared to look for a parking spot, it can also be really tight especially when you drive a bigger car like SUV or trucks. One more thing, they pass on to customers the cost on merchant fees when using credit cards which is about 2.5%. It's fully disclosed when you walk into the restaurant. Just pay in cash when you want to save up on dollars.
