"This historic Middleburg tavern dates back to 1728, when it existed as a popular stopping ground for travelers between Alexandria and the frontier town of Winchester, Virginia. The tavern as it is known today has been run by the Reuter family since 1976. In its dining room, a four-course dining experience includes dishes made with regional ingredients like fried squash blossom and garlic and herb-braised rabbit ($125 per person, wine pairings included). At the adjoining Night Fox Pub, dishes like steak frites ($52), a duck-fat seared “Middleburger” ($32) and casual pub snacks are available for diners." - Kalina Newman
