Roanoke Inn 1825 72nd Avenue Southeast, Mercer Island, WA 98040

"Nothing spectacular but what a nice place to go on my way home from skiing. The service can be a bit slow but if you're just chilling it's totally fine. I always get the chili and honestly it kinda slaps."

"I hesitate to post this glowing review because the Roanoke Inn is a hidden gem. However, the food, adult beverages, service, and atmosphere are all top-notch. There is plenty of seating inside and outside. It’s a solid & tasty menu. The servers are fun and personable. Propane heaters keep you warm when seated outside…along with a couple of shots of whiskey. There are plenty of TVs with sports both inside and outside. The structure itself is now 110 years old! The only downside is when it is packed inside and the beers are flowing it gets very loud. Sometimes it’s hard to hear the person seated across from you. That’s just part of the fun atmosphere."

"My wife and I stopped by and we were thoroughly impressed with every aspect. This establishment offers an extensive menu of delicious food, making it a fantastic place to stop. The consistent bustling activity speaks to the undeniable appeal of this place. The service is always excellent which is why we keep coming back."

"Husband and I stopped in for a bite to eat on a Sunday evening. There was plenty of seating, it was cozy and warm inside, and the music was great. The Roanoke has a very nice atmosphere. Ollie made wonderful drinks and was very attentive to us despite being busy at the bar. This was our first time visiting the Roanoke, and I already can't wait to go back! The food was good, but the prices were a bit high, which was the only drawback for me."

"Local institution, outdoor seating on sunny days is magnificent. Beer selection is good, hot wings were ok, avoid carne asada tacos. Menu probably needs a refresh. Staff very friendly."
