Capital Ale House Midlothian

The first time there and we loved it. bretzel with cheese app was great. dinner was delicious and our server was wonderful! will come back!

Capital ale house is always a good way for biz chats. cold beer, good eating options from ground to lure and always fun.

The food wasn’t bad but wasn’t great either. It was simply hoo hum. Not much flavor. Service was nice but the waitress had no idea about flavors in dishes or recommendations. The place was too big and awkwardly laid out. Pricey for what they offered. Beer was good. Don’t get me wrong, it wasn’t terrible. It was just a completely forgettable experience.

We were annoyed that when we arrived with a 6:30 pm reservation for three we were told there would be a 45 min wait for indoor seating because two large parties had walked in. We were offered immediate seating outside, which we took, but it was a chilly evening and we had not brought jackets (we had not planned nor wanted to sit outside). Ale House food is decent but not rave worthy. I had the salmon, my husband and MIL each had a burger. We also had spinach and shrimp dish appetizer, which was good but not enough bread is given. Service was fair.

Great selection of beers and the food was delicious.
