Pennsylvania’s Very First Steakhouse Has Literally Been Around Forever

Pull up a chair at this charming Pennsylvania steakhouse, where history whispers from every corner. Indeed, a quick look around will give you a glimpse into decades - and centuries - past in this popular eatery that pays tribute to its rich history with its decor, fresh flowers on every table, and old-fashioned friendliness. Of course, the highlight of your visit will be the food, especially if you order one of the steakhouse's award-winning steaks.

Nestled in an historic farmhouse built in 1750, The Stockyard Inn has seen its fair share of owners over the centuries, including President James Buchanan.

In its early days, the charming farmhouse served as an inn and steak restaurant. However, in the 1950s, its focus shifted as it became a "traditional steakhouse."

Embrace the cozy ambiance as a warm light glows on your table. Or, grab a seat at the bar to peruse the generous menu.

Choose from such popular steaks as the filet mignon, the prime New York strip steak, or the prime rib.

Or, opt for another tantalizing dish, such as the tenderloin beef tips or the French rib pork chops.

If you're in the mood for steak, but not too hungry, don't worry. Order the petite filet mignon or the petite prime rib.

Of course, you might also want to try another popular entree, such as the Chilean sea bass, Norwegian salmon, surf 'n turf, or chicken Savannah.

Then, top off your meal with a scrumptious dessert, such as Jim's cheesecake, peanut butter pie, or toasted almond cake.

Treat yourself to a mouthwatering steak at the Stockyard Inn, open for lunch from 11:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Tuesday through Friday. Or, stop by for dinner between 4:30 p.m. and 9:30 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday.
