Great spot for a pint and great food. Stopped here after hiking in the area. They have a great selection of beers on tap and a large menu. The staff were extremely attentive and friendly. We enjoyed our time here.

We had an amazing experience during our visit—everything from start to finish exceeded our expectations. The food was absolutely incredible. The beef dip was packed with flavor and perfectly cooked,and the mac and cheese was rich, creamy, and easily one of the best we’ve had.
What really made the visit stand out, though, was the service. Emma was fantastic friendly, attentive, and genuinely made us feel welcome. She went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect, and it truly elevated the whole experience.
We’ll definitely be back and highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for great food and outstanding service!

We came to State & Main on Mar/21/26 for lunch. It was our first time trying them out and they didn’t disappoint! The experience was better than expected. I had the Honey Glazed Cajun Chicken which came with asparagus and mashed potatoes. The blackened chicken was juicy and the veggies were cooked perfectly! My husband’s chicken club sandwich and fries were amazing too! Our server was super great too. She was on the ball and on point with everything from drink & food delivery to the bill. We would recommend this State & Main location!

Literally just got back from dinner & couldn’t wait to give our review!
This was our first visit & won’t be our last.
We were celebrating my birthday tonight. From the time we got inside to the very end the hospitality was spot on. The food was fantastic to say the least. Portions were huge and don’t get me started on my special birthday cake!! An ice cream cake with fudge and toasted nuts!
