Lot 12 Public House
West Virginia
Lot 12 Public House serves chef Damian Heath’s seasonal cooking in a restored 1913 house in Berkeley Springs. Diners can sit on the porch in suitable weather or inside the house’s dining room. The restaurant pairs its food with wines, microbrews and spirits. A three-course menu offers choices at each stage rather than a fixed sequence. Recent autumn dishes include toasted house-made gnocchi with apples and local Italian sausage, scallops with squash, apple and leek risotto, and a duck combination of confit leg and grilled breast. A lentil and root-vegetable pie provides a meat-free main course. Dessert choices range from apple crostata to chocolate pot de crème, with dessert wine or a small cocktail offered as alternatives.
