5.0 of 5 stars.
Red Coat Tavern has IMHO one of the best burgers in the area. They have a variety of toppings you can add (including a great zip sauce) and are one of the few places I know that uses Piedmontese beef...

I loved the food, I was very pleased with the staff, but I was very unhappy with how unfriendly the facility was for people with babies. There was no baby changing station in the bathroom, and they had nothing...

I'm fortunate to live a mile and a half from this little dump. Easy to mistake for a Sign-of-the-beefcarver from the outside, this place is crowded, smoky in the bar, dark, and uninviting at first glance. It...

I used to always want to go here on my birthdays because my brother hated it -- well, he hated the lighting, anyway. As I'd happily eat my giant burger and munch down fries, I'd eye my miserable...

I thought I knew what a good burger was until I went to Red Coat. The Piedmontese beef if amazing: I read that it actually has less fat than salmon (but I'll have to do more research to see if it's true). The...

This place is an institution to die for. It is another place like Carls Chophouse that is frozen in time. Get the house burger (you have a choice of regular or Piedmontese ground beef, I get the latter for the...

Exceptional burger! Too bad it is so far from the house! Very juicy and cooked to order (medium rare please), this burger is the best out there. The onion rings can't be beat. Pricy, as cinred43 commented, but...

what an expensive, overated, and ordinary burger. and the same goes for the bar itself what they charge for a burger they should feed it to you by hand. The Redcoat Tavern is a perfect name for the place. It...

Not a bad place to grab a burger and fries, if you don't mind throwing down $20 to $25 (including tip for waitress) for lunch! Also, light fixtures contain red light bulbs, bad decision!

This has been one of my favorite spots for a GREAT hamburger and the best clam chowder for almost twenty years. Nice high back booths make a great place to spend time visiting with good friends.

Red coat has a burger that brings us up at least once a week, and we often see the same crowd in the restaurant. We love the atmosphere, the food, drinks, and whole experience. It is worth the short wait for a...

In addition to their burger, try their onion rings! They are out of this world!

Not great, not near-great, but OK. This place could really develop into something if they added a menu (an extra menu) like that of "El Nibble Nook"'s

The hamburgers like everything are really good. I usually order an side of the onion rings. These are really good. They are also economical because I can usually make two meals off of this order.
