Lots of good placed to eat in Greenfield Village but this is the best. We split the fish dinner with a Mixed Green salad with beats. The bread before the meal was a roll and cornbread mini muffin with fresh butter.

Delicious food in a cozy and family friendly atmosphere. Kids were given a piece of chalk and a board to draw on. We tried the fried green tomatoes, corn fritters and pickled pork and onions.

#EagleTavern located in #GreenFieldVillage is a unique place to bend an elbow at the bar or enjoy a traditional inspired meal in their eating area. The servers and help staff wear period clothing, mid 19th Century like the tavern, and are very friendly and helpful in their service. There was a wait to be seated, but that was ok, we put our name on the list and the wait allowed us to chat with the host. Once seated my husband ordered a nice hot #AppleCider and I went with a traditional #CherryEffervescent beverage. Both very tasty. The meal comes with various “Relishes of the season” fresh baked breads, fresh churned butter, and house made pickles. I loved them. For mains we went with #RoastChicken with Horseradish Sauce which was served with yummy roasted #Potatoes And lovely #Carrots cut rustically. A simple dish with great flavor, hearty, and filling. #beefStew was the other main, suggested by the server, which was an excellent recommendation. The stew was rich and had great depth of flavor. The stew was served with a great crusty sliced bread and the lovely Rustic Carrots. It was fun to enjoy the meal amongst community tables and to see the other patrons enjoying thier meal. The Eagle Tavern is definitely a must visit when visiting the Greenfield Village, part of the Henry Ford Complex. You do have to be a paying member to visit the Tavern but we just payed for a year membership for the museum and village and feel like we are supporting a good organization and can visit anytime we are in the area. #eagletaverngreenfieldvillage

The Eagle Tavern is something special I feel . It definitely takes you back to a simpler time .. where the menu will consist of food that’s in season and readily available from the area. I.E roast pork (which I got and was amazing ) Fish , roasted chicken various root vegetables and nice homemade breads and desserts. Staff is dressed to period which dates around the 1850’s or so and are very welcoming and accommodating. You sit at tables with other families like a big dining hall. Though you can get a table for yourselves if you have a big enough party . We just had three in ours so we were sat with another party of three and it was nice to meet and eat with other people and hear their stories . They do have a kids menu it is limited though !! Chicken fingers , PB&J and Mac and cheese. My son got chicken fingers and it came with orange slice’s and roasted potato wedges. Overall we had a great experience and the atmosphere sights and sounds does kinda take you back to a simpler slower time which I enjoyed . Must visit if you plan on a trip to greenfield village . Expect to wait around a half hour or so. Not sure if that’s the average but it was pretty busy the day we went . Definitely will be going back if we go back to greenfield village.

Very good food. I got the pork cutlets. The seasoning was great. Most time they are a little bland at other places. I loved the 19th century dinning feel in Greenfield village.
