O'Rorke's Family Eatery

Dana Sullivan

Stopped in here after our first choice had too long of a wait. We were in a little bit of a hurry but even with a group of 6 we got in and out in a little under an hour without feeling like we were rushing to eat. The food came out reasonably quickly after we ordered (but not so quickly that it had to have been made in advance), and our waitress was super friendly and did a great job of making sure we got in and out. I had the salmon entrée with coleslaw and corn fritters sides. The salmon was cooked well and the seasoning was very tasty. Coleslaw was very basic (just green cabbage and dressing) but it was good. The fritters were probably also pretty standard but I don't think I've actually had corn fritters before so it was new to me, and I really liked them. Nice and fluffy inside. If I return to Gettysburg, I'd want to try again to go to one of the classic American taverns, but this is definitely a safe choice as an alternative. The food was good and the hospitality of our waitress plus the nice patio made it a great time even though it wasn't what we'd originally planned.

Great experience yesterday.! We reserved a room for 20 upstairs. Erin our server was fantastic considering a long flight of steps she had to navigate to bring our drinks and food. She offered helpful suggestions when asked and overall made our evening wonderful. The food was delicious. I had a generous portion of salmon which was seasoned and cooked to perfection. Their homemade coleslaw is the best I've had anywhere. Everyone in our group enjoyed their selections. I would highly recommend this restaurant and will be back soon. Rich Fehele is a fantastic singer and we enjoyed his music throughout our stay.

Delish! We stopped here for a quick bite to eat, not wanting too much since he knew we had dinner reservations coming up soon, But also didn't want to starve until then. Wife and I settled on splitting the authentic shepherd's pie And the waitress was so nice and thoughtful as to have them split it into two separate individual cups for us without us even asking. It was the perfect serving size for us and amazingly delicious. We also got a side of the corn fritters and they were very good as well. In the perfect location for a lunch while browsing the shops downtown.

The food was good. They definitely use fresh crab meat here, no doubt about that! Because I found a piece of shell in my crab dip. I wasn’t too bothered by it because it showed that they are using fresh real crab meat. I’m just glad I didn’t chip a tooth. Try their Sheppards Pie. It is authentic and very savory. Pair it with the extra Champ (mashed potatoes with butter and fresh scallions) on the side because you don’t get nearly enough mash with the pie. We also ordered the fresh kettle cooked chips, they came out warm so they were freshly deep fried to order. Fresh cooked chips. I was hooked. A little pricy though at $9. There is a bar. The atmosphere is very lively here. Everyone is happy and busy. Good food in traditional Irish Pub style. We will definitely come back!
