| - Once again, Afton Tavern provided us with a tasty, affordable meal. We went on a Saturday night at 6:00. We were able to sit down right away and we had a monster glass of ice water within minutes of parking.
My wife had a chicken sandwich (called the Everything Else sandwich?) with avacados, a couple other ingredients, and a side of sweet potato fries. I had a Kickin Chicken sandwich with ranch and cucumbers and a side of regular fries. The homemade wing sauce on the Kickin Chicken sandwich was amazing. It had just the right balance of spicy and sweet. They must make it with BBQ, hot sauce and maybe some ginger? Whatever's in there, it was excellent. The sweet potato fries were a 9 out of 10. They could've been slightly crispier.
The dessert was the best dessert I've ever had at a restaurant. I don't care if you're not hungry for dessert, you HAVE to get the cookie skillet. Imagine three freshly baked chocolate chip cookies, a scoop of ice cream, and whipped cream and chocolate syrup topping on a hot skillet. This dessert literally melts in your mouth. You have to eat it fast which shouldn't be a problem for anyone. And yes, this is a kid friendly place; they do have milk! You can get it in two different sizes, one with three cookies and one has six.
Overall, Afton Tavern is definitely a restaurant we will return to. The atmosphere is casual and kid friendly and the service was above average. Our bill for two sandwiches, a couple waters and the best dessert ever was less than $30. That's what I call a successful restaurant trip.
