History

Established in 2010.

Built in 1900 to construct and repair horse drawn carriages, the Devonshire Arms is located in the heart of Shepherdstown, WV. We are just a stones throw away from the historic Entler Hotel and town’s main thoroughfare. Shepherdstown is said to be the best preserved town in West Virginia. The historic building that houses the Devonshire Arms still has the original look and feel from 1900 in many respects, such as the wood beamed ceiling and wide doorway to accommodate the carriages.

Disappointing lunch. Wanted the traditional English tea but since they need 24 hour notice, we decided on the cream tea. Tea was only warm and even though the scones were adequate, there was no butter and less than a tablespoon of clotted cream. The fish and chips were ok, but the Welsh rarebit was terrible. A quaint atmosphere but needs more attention to food.

Excellent! This is the place to go for British comfort food and good cheer. Recently I started a low carb diet and, guess what? They offer amazing low carb options, too! Check out this «Reuben.» What a treat! This place is definitely worth a visit. I’ll be aback again and again.

Charming little place with wonderful service– the perfect place to have a nice lunch and relax with a friend. Service was great with friendly and attentive staff. The fish and chips was very good. We will go back. We almost missed this little treasure because of some bad reviews left by a disgruntled ex-​employee. That would have been a shame.

Been a patron here for years! Great food and great people! Live music most weekends is normally good. Best Reuben and Fish and Chips around with a warm atmosphere.

Let me start by saying, the service was amazing. This rating is low based totally on food and lack there of. We ordered a cheese plate to share, he ordered the fish and chips, and I the cream tea. The cream tea is supposed to be a pot of tea, 2 scones, jam and clotted cream. First of all, they no longer served cheese plate, ok, I’ll still take the cream tea. Wait, no scones. I should have left, yes, but hubby really was looking forward to fish and chips, which were very good, according to Him. I settled on a potato leek soup, very sorry I did that. Anyhow, service great, fish and chips, very good!

No. Just no. Maybe we came on an off night… but the beer selection was terrible, food took an hour and was overcooked. Was served a plate of stale tortilla chip crumbs to eat with our artichoke dip. To top it off, some douchey kid was «vaping» at the bar the entire time, which filled the whole place with a foul smelling smoke. Disgusting.
I’m from Philadelphia, and I’m a huge fan of small pubs and dive bars. It take a lot for me to dislike a place… this place is a complete mess and I will not be returning.

No doubt this is a great bar! My first impression wasn’t so great but, I’ve heard great things so I didn’t want to give up. Service could be better and more friendly but, I might have been around on an off night. Great pints!

Just stopped in and had the best time I have had in a long time! If I lived locally this would be my «regal beagle»! The owner Caroline is the best! The banoffe pie is the best. If you are looking for a place to enjoy fish and chips and a pint, this is the place! Entrees and desserts from scratch! I will be coming back again!

A unique bar for a unique town. A coworker and myself went there for lunch after I ran into a friend on the street who said I had to try it.
It’s a very small place, cute bar. Definitely older and has that rustic feel. The menu has a lot of great choices. From tuna melts to bangers and mash. I got the tuna melt. Aside from the fact the tuna was cold, with half melted cheese, it was really good. The French fries are clearly hand cut and had great flavor. My coworker got the fish and chips. She said the fish was cooked perfectly and the batter was amazing.
The service was good. The waiter was really friendly and seemed to genuinely liked his job. The food took a little longer than I expected. (Between 13 – 15 minutes) but it was nicely presented.
I’ll definitely. Be going back. I really want to try the Reuben, and the desserts looked so so yummy.

It’s all about the art. The food is fine. Excellent fish and chips. The tea service is charming. Staff pretty casual, but fine. Don’t let the shop’s name give you the wrong impression. This is NOT a prissy place. More like a hang out for students. BUT THE ART IS ALWAYS NEW AND INTERESTING.

Honestly, the place is s bit small and you’re not sure what to expect at first. The fish and chips are terrific and the Rubin is authentic. Besides the good food and the bar guitar, the bartender Danny is absolutely makes the place. He’s a wise cracking smart ass who won our hearts. Stop in for the food but stop in for Danny. Leave that boy a BIG tip — he’s worth it!!!

Great food, very slow drink and food service, crazy crazy prices! 102.90 for burger, salad, 3 rail vodak’s 3 rail captain and cokes. The drinks were $ 12.00 each!
$ 72.0 for week drinks, Extra for fries with your burger, and terrible salad for my wife.

Awesome place… Not fancy but food is great and service is beyond expectations. Danny at the bar is amazing… He does everything. Bar service, table service, cashier… And he knows the menu– how it’s made, what it is and whether you’ll like it. And he’s easy on eyes ;). We will definitely be back!

The «dev» is a small British style pub. It’s small but very fitting for Shepherdstown. It can sometimes be difficult to find a spot at the bar but that being said I’ve never had a bad experience there. Bartenders are pretty laid back and the owner is there most days to mingle. Typically go for the bar/​beer but I have eaten there once or twice. If you’re not into British cuisine then I would eat before I came but everything I’ve had has been great. Their fries are excellent! If you’re looking for drinks more advanced than a jack and coke you may have to explain how to make it, but other than that no complaints.

Great service… fish and chips amazing, hand carved chicken pesto sandwich and royal club all really good. Nice selection of local ipa’s and other beers on tap. Wonderful way to breakup or finish off a ride!!!

The «Dev,» as it is called by locals, is a quaint and adorable little restaurant. There’s a comforting home-​like feel to the place, even more so when the owner, Carolyn, takes time to greet and get to know her new customers. My favorite items on the menu would have to be the Bangers and Mash, and the Portobello Sandwich which is served on homemade foccacia bread with cheese and pesto sauce. Delicious! And so is their sausage gravy. It’s also a great little place to stop by on wing night. And there’s often a band on Friday and Saturday evenings. Check it out!

This is definitely a quirky restaurant in a quirky town.
We were greeted by a woman in her 50s who was quite the atypical hostess. She was talking with other people almost as if she was in a group of her friends. After a brief but awkward exchange, we sat down.
Our server was in his mid 20s and offered to make us snake bites (Guinness and Hard Cider), almost as if he felt bad for their tap beer offering.
There was a giant sign out front that said «It’s Banger time.» Indeed it was.
The meal too a strange turn when a man with a parrot on his shoulder walked in and the bird squawked the entire time. Could have done without that.

Good place to sit down and grab a beer, the people that worked there were really laidback and easygoing. You can play dart here which is cool. They also had a special shot you should ask for pretty cool, young clientell
