Welcome to the Playhouse Deck! We've re-opened with a new chef, a new look, but the same fantastic views of the Delaware River. Located on the river side of the Buck County Playhouse, we cater to both theatergoers and those just in search of a great meal. Expect all-new seasonal menus showcasing the best of Mediterranean cuisine. The bar program is seasonally inspired with lots of fresh fruit and herb components that will complement the cuisine. The cuisine is Mediterranean and Italian inspired, as are the wines. The beer program will have plenty of options for local craft breweries in addition to bigger names and some imports as well.

The Deck was a perfect and relaxing spot for a weekday lunch. Sitting along the river, with the last colors of fall on display was a real treat. The food waa yummy; we had lobster sliders and the cheese steak Panini. As for dessert: the affogato is the BEST ANYWHERE!!!

Very convenient. Good food. Great staff. Great ambiance. Eight dollars for a bottle of domestic beer and 21 dollars for a mixed drink. Never again.

Thank you for your review. We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the convenience to the Playhouse, your meals, as well as the ambiance. Our cocktails are priced at $16; however, top-shelf liquors add to the cost. Every dollar spent at The Deck Restaurant and Bar supports the non-profit mission of Bucks County Playhouse. We appreciate your feedback, value your patronage, and hope to see you again soon!

The food was delicious and the service was excellent. We split the hummus for the appetizer and we ordered the cheesesteak panini and scallops- both were so yummy. I would recommend this place to anyone who wants a beautiful view of the river and a great meal

Table service was stellar! Bar service was absolutely horrible. 4 bartenders, waited almost 30 minutes to be greeted by perhaps the rudest of them; other tenders were smiling and greeting customers as they approached. Won’t be back and will not recommend.

Made the reservations months in advance yet when we arrived they had us wait then put us off the side of the bar on high top table. Manager did treat us to an appetizer which was nice but we did have reservations well in advance and was seeing a show. We expected better having been there several times over the years for dinner and play.
