I will preface this review by saying we used to love Wakefield Tavern. The apps, quesadillas, burgers, sammies were always good. Yesterday we ordered shrimp nachos and Philly steak eggrolls. The eggrolls used to be large and filled with what could at least pass as steak. During our visit yesterday, the eggroll had shrank in size considerably and the meat was more like beef gruel...something you might serve maximum security prisoners. The queso was a whole other issue. The taste was not horrible but it was like someone added a whole bunch of flour to the previous day's runny queso and it ended up with a jello consistency. The queso on the nachos was the same way. There was actually a few more shrimp on the nachos than I would have expected. As we paid the bill we noticed a 3% service charge which was not mentioned previously by the waitstaff. I support Wake Forest restaurants regularly and will not be coming back to Wakefield Tavern again. Over the Falls has not provided a service charge nor changed the overall composition of items I have enjoyed there for years. Prices have risen but quality remains at least the same. I wish I could say the same for Wakefield Tavern.

Why charge your guest a credit card processing fee even before we present we're paying with a credit card. You should never charge your guest for your credit card processing fees!

I don't eat burgers often. Like once a year maybe. But the last two times I've had a hankering, I got a Swiss cheese and sautéed onions and mushrooms burger at Wakefield Tavern. With a side of sweet potato fries. It's hit the spot both times.

Came here for lunch today with my wife and we were both pleasantly surprised. We were seated right away. It was fairly loud inside so we took a seat outside. The food and drinks both arrived soon after we ordered. We started with their chorizo dip with pita chips, which really hit the spot. I was a big fan of their Tavern Pasta with shrimp and an even bigger fan of their Painkiller cocktail. Honestly there were at least a dozen things on the menu that I'd be interested in trying. Everything we tried was extremely salty so maybe be careful if you have sodium issues, but it sure tasted great.

We love Wakefield tavern! The food is always delicious, the service is consistently great, and the atmosphere is always upbeat. We bring our kids so it's definitely family friendly. My reason for only 4 stars is that since we are a larger family, we are often put in the huge corner booth that has missing filling in the cushions, so you are sinking into the wooden base and it's really not comfortable.

Went on a late Saturday afternoon and had the patio to ourselves. Loved the quietness & the nice breeze from the outdoor fans. Enjoyed my blood orange cider and the burger was incredibly juicy & tasty!

Always a great time at Wakefield Tavern! We've been delving into their Burger menu and really enjoying the different offerings. My favorite is The Goat! Everyone in our family looks forward to either going to the restaurant or grabbing takeout. The service is always great, friendly and helpful. The atmosphere is warm, upbeat and family friendly.

Ate here last week for lunch. If you call yourself a tavern- you better be able to make Reuben sandwich- nope- bread all soggy, no color whatsoever on the bread, looked liked they put unbuttered bread on a not so hot griddle. Tater tots? Nope can't make those either and that's a hard one to screw up since they come frozen in a bag- how to cook them wrong? Drop them in a fryer that's not hot enough so they absorb grease and taste disgusting. Home made chips? I don't think they were homemade- looked like frozen to me-- pro tip- after you fry them- try putting some salt on them- it would help. Please set some standards.
