Best Restaurants for Special Occasions in Dover

I was so grateful that the Blue Pig Tavern honored my requests for seating by putting my partner and I at the table we hoped for, off in the corner of the room with the fireplace. The atmosphere is cozy, welcoming, and warm and everyone treated us so kindly. What a special anniversary dinner. (Also, the pumpkin pie with cranberry drizzle was one of the best desserts I've ever had).

Dining at the charming Franklinville Inn is always special. From the gracious welcome by Marianne at the front door to the perfect Old Fashioned by Tiffany at the bar to the enthusiastic, friendly service by the FOH staff. The ambiance during the Christmas season is wonderful, and the decor is beautiful. The wedge salad and prime rib were spectacular, and the homemade desserts (chocolate mousse pie this visit) are always the perfect closing. Celebrating here is unforgettable.

I can not say enough. It was a brunch for my dad’s 75th bday. I was running late because my son’s nurse called out. He is handicapped and has many medical needs. They allowed my family to be seated so they didn’t have to be wait in the cold (my father and aunt walk with canes as well). My son’s kidcart (wheelchair/stroller) had to be kept outside the tent and it started to rain and they came with bags and covered it for me. I didn’t ask them to do so. The food was excellent. The staff was very courteous. These things may not seem like big deals but when you have a child with special needs they are really huge things. Thank you so much!

Our server, Ryan is outstanding!!! He goes above and beyond to take care of his customers.

Food was great. It was inside Bally’s so Convenient to the casino. The service was very attentive and pleasant.
