Harry’s Tap Room

«Baby spinach salad» was MASSIVE spinach salad, with super long stems. The cuban sandwich was basically lunchmeat on soggyish bread (even though it had grill marks on it), and the tortilla soup tasted, for lack of a better descriptor, canned.
Caveat: I know this is not the establishment’s fault, and this doesn’t affect my rating of the place. But I have to share:
There was a wild, crazy child terrorizing people. At one point she hid under my table and LIFTED MY SKIRT and the parents refused to do anything about it.

I loved my chicken and waffles. More importantly, we had six kids with us and six quality kids meals. Most places just phone in the meals for the little ones, but these were very generous portions, well made, and the desserts were awesome (check out the cotton candy). Extra points for a nice server lady and getting 12 meals prepared and served correctly.

My husband and I stopped here for a bite to eat before heading out on a long flight. We ordered breakfast and it was nice because I could order my meal how I wanted it. I wanted an egg white omelet without the potatoes. So I was given extra fruit instead. The omelet was okay but could of used extra flavor (seasoning??). Thank you for the hot sauce! My husband enjoyed his omelet but what was strange is they melted two american cheese slices over the omelet. It made it look unappealing to eat.
The meal was pricey but I shouldn’t expect differently for the location since it was at the airport. Maybe next time I should of got a few shots to calm my angry over the prices.

8.00 for a shot of tequila? 8.00 for a draft beer? 16.00 for a turkey sandwich that was basic — not even a pickle? Snotty, slow service — even seated at the bar? Slow service? If you answered yes to all of these, youre in the right place

Ehh, the service was slow and the food is hit or miss. Don’t get a sandwich on the Pick Two/​Three menu. Looks like what my son makes for lunch, just two slices of bread with some package meat in the middle. Spinach salad was only good thing I enjoyed. We almost left since it took them close to 20 – 25 minutes to bring our food.

For an airport, I thought it was a pretty good alternative to the myriad of fast food offerings at Dulles. I’ve got a 5 hour layover, so while the Reisling in me is saying ‘make this review obnoxiously long, you’ve got 5 hours to craft this one’, I’ll give you the short version: great service, decent wine, decent prices for an airport resto, and the food was pretty good. I got the spinach salad with bacon vinaigrette and the open faced Tarragon chicken salad. All good in my book! Damnit, that only took 2 minutes to write… guess i’ll go eat something else now.

Surprised the place is called a «tap room» with only five beers on tap. That said, at least they were craft brews.
Limited menue, but the Harry burger was ok. Pricy, but not bad at all given the local.

I actually thought this place wasn’t bad… given that the food is super over-​priced for what you get, it’s typical for airport food. Service was pretty good and the place is conveniently located — especially if you have been waiting in line to check-​in to your international flight and need a quick pick-​me-​up. Coffee was actually pretty descent too.

Ugh! What an awful experience I had on my most recent trek through Dulles Airport. I made the mistake of stopping here on a layover before flying to Copenhagen and really wish I had checked Unilocal!first.
The quick and dirty? Service was absolute and complete crap. Slow, disengaged and completely apathetic. Mind you this was mid-​day, not 10pm or something, so I have no idea why the staff was trying to imitate «The Walking Dead», but that’s the best way I can sum it up. Unreal.
The food? Also crap. Wife and I ordered their most expensive burger, well done, and received tasteless, dripping wet yet somehow not flavorful and bloody/​still mooing hunks of meat. Bun was falling apart from all the juices, but there was no taste whatsoever. For something this greasy, you’d think it would at least taste good, but either they didn’t season the meat or it was going bad. I really don’t know which is worse. How the heck do you possibly screw up something as simple as a hamburger when you charge $ 15 a pop? I would have sent it back but we waited for what seemed like forever just to get this steaming pile of garbage, and we had a plane to catch. It’s sadly ironic that the most expensive burger I’ve ever eaten was also, by far, the worst tasting. It should be criminal to charge this much for something this bad and call it a burger, much less «Kobe». What the hell are they thinking???
Server couldn’t refill to save her life, didn’t even care that my wife left half her burger untouched or that it was obviously still blood soaked and very rare. She never even asked how the food came out or if it was tasting ok and cooked properly. Like I said, totally disengaged, just wanted our money. Will never be going back to this cesspool.

Had a blackened turkey burger. Flavor was ok but cheese was not melted at all. Tap beer: multiple choices not available and the lager I had tasted off. Not sure if if it was stale or lines not clean. Service was on the slow side but server was hustling, might have had too many tables. Will go to the Five Guys if stuck in Dulles for dinner again.

Typisches Flughafenbarfeeling. Die Flasche Sam Adams 0,3 Liter kostet
stolze sieben US$ und sorry, das ist way to much. Service ist
gelangweilt, TV flimmert europäischen Fussball und irgendwie kommt auch
kein internationales Flair auf. Nichts besonderes.

I’m enjoying my widmor hefeweizen!
My Harry’s amber ale is ok.
It’s a good place to enjoy a beer pre-​TSA checkpoint. Nice TVs w sports and news on.
Lots of liquor and wine to choose from. Only a few beers though. I think «tap room» is a loose term here.

The draft/​bottled beer is the ONLY thing good at this place – simply because you know what it is. Other than that, my experience at Harry’s was terrible. I wouldn’t come back even if they paid me to. The waitresses – two Indian, two Middle Eastern descent, and one Mexican – were equally rude and did not care to do their jobs. I mistakenly ordered the «American Kobe» burger and realized after it came that Kobe beef isn’t imported into America – so I assumed they meant to say «Wagyu». I specifically told the waitress that I wanted my burger medium and with pepper jack cheese. However, when it arrived at my table, it was well done and came with cheddar. Additionally, it wasn’t wagyu or kobe beef; it was simply ground beef – a low quality ground beef, in fact. Also, I should mention that while I was waiting for my order to arrive, I was rudely asked by one of the Arab or Indian woman, «Are you not going to order something to eat? You just going to drink beer?!» I cannot convey the rudeness of these waitresses by using words, but trust me avoid this place and go get some food at ANY OTHER restaurant at Dulles. You’ll thank me later.
I still can’t believe I’m writing such a negative review. But I feel that I must inform other prospective customers about this place.

I would have been a 4 if my server was not was not clueless or just didn’t care… I can’t quite figure that one out yet. She walked by my table at least 3 times and looked right at my empty glass before I finally said something.
As for the food, very good for airport food. The wings with the Spicy Plum sauce were awesome. Having just got off an eight hour international flight, I was still hungry so I ordered the Bison Burger and it was perfect. cooked to medium so it didn’t dry out and had lots of flavor.
So, good food… miserable service. But if you have time to waste in an airport it is not a bad place to eat!

Food was ok. Service was horrible.

First off its not really a tap room. They only have 4 taps and bottled beers there after but I enjoyed sitting and getting to watch people pass by and watch the huge tvs at the bar. It was the best bar that I found in my terminal to sit and waste away the time before my flight.
I would defiantly sit here again and enjoy a couple off their local craft beers.

It’s the ONLY option you have to hang out with travelers before they go through security. So, since we are a pretty punctual family (and get to the airport 3 hours or more before an international flight) we end up passing the time at Harry’s before sending the travelers on their way. The food is quite mediocre, although Harry’s claims to be all about locally-​sourced fresh food. But, we know better than to expect greatness from an airport restaurant.
They have pick 2 and pick 3 combinations of soups, salads, and half sandwiches that aren’t TOO expensive ($ 12-​$ 13), especially if we aren’t too hungry. Yes, we are that family that orders a combination and shares it. The service can vary depending on the server (ours today was terrible).
Beers are around $ 7-​$ 9, and aren’t THAT exciting for a tap room. Ah well, again… it’s the airport.

Harry’s is awful. The crab cake was maybe the most unpleasant and pathetic collection of stringy crab and burnt filler I have ever laid my eyes upon. It was shiny with grease, served on a wet and limp lettuce leaf, and was an unnatural yellow color. If you eat with your eyes first, Harry must think we’re all blind.
The only palatable item out of the bunch ordered by my family (including the US’ «best» fish n chips) was the fries. Everything else was condescending tripe designed to minimize overhead instead of please the palette and satisfy.
By all means, have a beer and the fry basket at the bar, but if you eat the actual food, the joke’s on you and the punch line will probably hit somewhere over 10,000 feet.

Best fish and chips in the States. Ever! Seriously good for an American restaurant in an airport or out of the airport.
I can’t speak to anything else on the menu and why should I? Get and ice cold beer and some of these fishies that are chippy!
Dark batter, crispy outside, flaky white fish inside. Yummo!

Eating at Harry’s is always so bittersweet for me. I fly over to the DC every so often to visit the boyfriend and everytime we eat at Harry’s, it’s about an hour before my flight takes off. Sigh.
Now for the food –
The side of fresh fruit hasn’t disappointed me.
Turkey sandwich has disappointed me. It gave me a tummy ache 20 min before I boarded and at my landing (in LA) I puked up what tasted like bacon… what? I thought I had a turkey sammich!
Service was good. Our waitress was prompt and attentive, so no complaints about the service.
Overall, this place is a bit pricy for pretty bleh food. I’ll probably end up going again on my next trip home.

Sat at the bar with a buddy and had a few beers. Beers are way overpriced and the selection is terrible. Bartender salted my napkin before putting my beer on it. What is this, college?
Look elsewhere for a decent airport bar.
