    Stopped here during a girls' weekend after we spent a day of walking and climbing a multitude of stairs and hills. I had a refreshing lavender lemonade and it hit the spot perfectly. The food was great, the staff was great, the atmosphere was perfection. Would definitely recommend this great place when you next visit Harper's Ferry!

    Excellent service and great cappuccinos. The chocolate chip muffin and the cheesecake were fresh and delicious. Such a cute place and a great start to our visit to Harper’s Ferry. Will be back!

    This place is incredible The menu looked super interesting, so we stopped by to check it out as we were passing through town. As soon as I stepped inside I knew we needed to make time for it before heading out. So glad we did! They have a really fun selection of unique drinks and dishes. Also, the ambiance is lovely and so cozy. Even the bathrooms! Most importantly, the people here are incredibly kind, helpful, and welcoming. Andrea offered to make some hot chocolate for one of our littles, customized a drink order for me, and then personally mailed me a bag I accidentally left behind when we left. Places and people like this are hard to find, which makes them such a treasure. Snallygasters turned out to be one of the highlights of our trip, and we hope to make it back again someday.

    Wow, what a gem!! The menu is so creative, and the food is appealing and delicious. The service is exceptional, the atmosphere is welcoming. I hope to be at a regular here, and I would highly recommend! I’ll add that if you’re looking for breakfast, this is definitely the number one place in Harpers Ferry.

    Went on a two week trip to the US visiting NYC, DC, VA, MD and DE. Snallygaster’s Cafe and Wine Bar was hands down the best restaurant I visited. Had no idea about the place but it was one of the few places open near Haper’s Ferry after a long day trip. Place was casual and unassuming but very homey. Servers were pleasant, knowledgeable and seemed happy to be there. Had the Crab Cake with Orzo special and Pulled Pork with Mushroom Risotto. The food was fresh, presented beautifully without being too pretentious and priced really well. Visiting again in June and this is definitely the only restaurant I would come back to.

    What a gem. Cool wine and bar restaurant. Not expecting such a fun , eclectic, delicious food and amazing drinks. Love Jeanie the mixologist. She listens to what you like to drink and makes you a delicious drink you wouldn’t know how to order or ask for. She makes her own flavored simple syrup or bitters too. Wish I lived nearby. Our server Lisa was awesome too.

    Located in the little village of Bolivar, West Virginia. Just a stone throw from Harpers Ferry. The two of us ordered Old Fashions from the build your own ingredient menu. Choices were offered between bourbon & rye and 3 different bitter flavors. The bartender took the time to verify our selection. After a nice chat, the cocktails placed before us had the most delicious blend of ingredients and we each enjoyed one of the best Old Fashion of all time. We arrived at 7pm and unfortunately 2 of the main course menu items were not available due to being sold out. Our next choices of 1. Snally’s Shrimp & Grits and 2. Red Pepper and Pesto were delicious. We did begin the meal with the Bruschetta and it was excellent! We even bought a couple of reasonably priced bottles of wine from the wine shop located at the back of the restaurant. Great overall service and atmosphere.
