Restaurants near George Pickering Nichols House

Christmas Eve dinner. Festive, lively atmosphere without being too loud for easy conversation. Service was excellent, beginning with the accommodation of a late addition guest. Staff was there for every need and question yet never made us feel rushed—even though our meal went past closing. I expected great food and was not disappointed. Oysters were particularly good and French-pressed coffee always adds a great finishing touch. My teenagers had a great time and have a new appreciation for real food. Highly recommend.

It was Christmas Eve and what could be better than dining at the Publick House? Nothing! We were greeted warmly by the hostess and other staff members. The Christmas lights twinkled and the poinsettias gleamed as we walked through the beautifully decorated halls to our table. The bread basket was filled with corn bread and the delicious pecan rolls! The menu was diverse offering some specials for the evening. Turkey Dinner, Chicken Pot Pie and Prime Rib dinners all fantastic! Desserts yummy too! If you have a special event this is the place to go. Even for a lovely evening out any time of the year including lunch...you will not be disappointed!

Great and friendly service, excellent food, with a cozy ambiance.

Extremely quaint and well worth the visit. Food, service and ambience are superb. Very affordable and a great value for the portions and variety they offer. Owner is usually on site and very approachable; a family run business.

The food was generally outstanding. We had bourbon steak tips and Gorgonzola steak tips and both were delicious. The nachos, which came out much too close to the main dishes, were lacking enough toppings for the chips. We left half. Service was friendly if a tad slow. And with the live music - which was very good - it was very noisy in there, making it hard to chat. Overall, though, we enjoyed and will return.
