Where to eat: the 20 best restaurants in Ronks

Came here tonight for dinner and everything was really good. We chose the family style dining which was all you can eat fried chicken, baked ham, meatloaf, mashed potatoes, corn, green beans, buttered noodles, apple sauce, gravy, bread, butter or apple butter. For dessert we chose apple crumb pie with ice cream and shoefly pie with ice cream. The atmosphere was really friendly with a gift shop and bakery downstairs. Well worth the short wait and the money.

We opted to go to the other dining room as we wanted to order from their ala carte menu rather than their family style all you can eat option. It was a good choice as the portion size was generous as you can see from the attached pictures. We were also served their super soft bread with whipped butter and jam so we certainly had our fill!

We tried the family style food. It was a very special experience to share food with the other people. The food and the service were good. The desserts were too sweet for me. Overall I recommend to have food with your family when you first visit here!

Ok, I tried this spot due to a recommendation from an Amish woman. I personally liked Katie's Kitchen more for authentic Amish food. Let's see, this place was good that I can see what's cooking due to the open kitchen. The applesauce was okay, the wedding meal was weird but okay, the peppa slaw was fine, the mash was good. The refresher was very very light with sugar but that was fine with me. I'm not sure whether I'd be back but might come back for a breakfast meal. The server was super duper nice!

The staff was so nice and inviting as soon as we entered the building. The family style dinning experience is definitely new to me, (sitting at a hs cafeteria type table with random people). I really enjoyed it though, met a few nice people and the food was good. The fried chicken and mash potatoes was official chicke gravy boat was clutch. My girl got the meatloaf it was good too. They have a family style all you can eat option for $26 per person. If you have the appetite for all that seems worth it to me. They have a nice gift shop too

I really give them a 4 1/2 star rating. This place is good and most the food is pretty flavorful but I have come to other places like this one and they have given me just a bit more on some levels. This place is large inside and you have different choices on what may work for you to purchase a meal ticket. It's either large area with many sets for large groups or for small groups/couples that don't mind meeting new people on the all you can eat price. If that's not for you, then you can purchase off the menu items and sit at a smaller formal area. There's also a bakery on the lower level and a nice size gift shop. They also offer a large parking area that can hold many cars and has space for tour buses as well. That's a bonus to bring in big and larger number of people to visit. The outside area is nice as well with a small petting farm zoo.

We had a very good time at Good and Plenty. Our server was excellent. They have a novelty store connected to the restaurant and it's a lot of fun. It was my birthday on the day we went. They have a birthday policy that the birthday persons food is of no charge and a 20% off coupon for the novelty store is given as a gift. I was very touched. It covered my meal, my drink and my dessert. The restaurant is in the middle of Amish Country I found an interesting display of signs that I had to take a picture of. I have included a picture of it

This was my first time visiting and until now I’ve been going to the more popular one in Lancaster. However, after this visit, I would say Miller’s is better! While the selection may be slightly limited, the quality makes up for it. They also offer just the right number of selection for my personal liking. The service was great, we got seated right away and our waitress was awesome! She was attentive and prompt throughout our entire meal. Millers is a great spot for families and individuals. They do accept reservations which I think is unique ! Food wise, you really can’t go wrong! My favorite pair was the fried chicken, roast beef and broccoli salad!!! The chicken was fried perfectly, not dry and flavorful! The roast beef was also very tender !! Paired beautifully with the horseradish, not too strong. The broccoli salad was creamy and minced fine!! Overall all the other dishes were good. I will say, be warned about their salted caramel cheesecake. It was SUPER salty.. almost unbearable to eat…

We stopped by Miller’s Smorgasbord for Sunday brunch, and it quickly became a new favorite for our group of four. This all-you-can-eat Amish and American buffet really delivers. From brown buttered noodles to the carved roast beef and perfectly crispy fried chicken, everything we tried was fresh, hot, and delicious. Service was just as impressive as the food. Our plates were cleared promptly and drinks were always refreshed without having to ask. Compared to other local Amish buffets like Shady Maple, Miller’s felt calmer, more organized, and overall a better dining experience. Of the over 3 dozen items to choose from on the buffet line, we had our favorites. The fried chicken was crunchy and seasoned just right, the roast beef was tender and carved to order, and we loved the tangy broccoli slaw. Don’t skip the desserts either, ie. homemade pies, cakes and cookies. At $30 per adult, it’s a bit pricier than some buffets in the area, but for the quality and service, it’s 100% worth it, especially if you’ve got a solid appetite. 100% will be back

Food was okay. Some stuff was kind of bland(stuffing), other stuff was kinda dry (chicken).. other stuff was good.. banana pudding tasted fake with no real banana and hardly any wafers. Its quite expensive especially since sodas were extra and not included..

Food is delicious, there was a 30 minute wait if you didn’t have a reservation but that wasn’t a problem. The staff here are really really nice and friendly people. There was no Chinese food, but food here is really good, and the outside looks great with horses walking on fields and much more, very great view of Pennsylvania.

Just excellent. 30 minute wait was worth it. Shopped at the stores and time flew by. The wealth of options, good flavor and clean food was spot on after a long day of travel. The soups, ham, sweet potatoes, apple pie and fruit were my go toast for round 1-3.

This was a great place to eat. It was buffet and there were many good options to choose from. Anyone could find something for their taste. And the dessert bar was excellent with many choices. All of the food I tried was very good.

Everything was amazing! The only downside is we picked a time to go when their happened to be a bus load of people visiting. It was very crowded. I recommend getting reservations. It was a 45 minute wait. Which wasn't so bad because we got to visit the shops on the premises and watch the horses.

Nice and clean restaurant. Very good home made food. Reasonably priced. We just sat in our car in the parking lot for about an hour until the pager they gave us went off. We finally got in at 6pm on a Saturday. Someone told us to get our pie first from the fridge section which was a good strategy as they ran out of some kinds. We loved the big baked beans, butter noodles, corn and the soft serve ice cream. The chicken noodle soup was also good. It was nice to try the place once, but we ate so much we probably won’t go back.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Dienner’s Country Restaurant is an absolute must-visit! We came, we saw, and… well, we definitely ate. And let me tell you, it was worth every single bite. The portions are generous, the flavors are incredible, and the food tastes just like a home-cooked meal from my childhood. From the first whiff when you walk in — that cozy, comforting aroma that instantly reminded me of my grandma’s house — to the last forkful, everything was pure deliciousness. The selection on the buffet is amazing, with classics like tender roast beef, juicy fried chicken, and perfectly seasoned vegetables. And don’t even get me started on the mashed potatoes and gravy — absolute comfort food heaven! And of course, you can’t leave without trying the all-you-can-eat pie. So many choices, and each one better than the last. It’s the perfect sweet ending to a meal that leaves both your belly and your heart full. If you’re in Lancaster County and craving authentic, home-style cooking, Dienner’s Country Restaurant is the place to go. Friendly staff, warm atmosphere, and food that will keep you coming back again and again. Highly, highly recommend!

Houston, we have a problem! Desserts! The choices and the amount of them! Let me back up a bit. This was my first experience at a country restaurant and it was absolutely incredible. Nice place, great staff, good food, well priced. I opted for the buffet and everything was delicious. The reason to opt for the buffet was the desserts. Mmmmhmmmm!

Genuine smorgasbords (aka “Amish Buffet”), gives off just a history family owned vibe. Very clean, staff is extremely friendly, and great service. While others might have more options, Dienners did have a good selection but I felt they focus on quality over quantity. The quality really there in every bite of food. So good! The food is really good and tasteful, true to PA Dutch cuisine. There three bars- main, salad, dessert (at least for the lunch we were at). Highly recommend!!!!

Food was great, a definite good pick for comfort food buffet. Interior was a bit cold and cooled off from the cold air inside pretty quick but it was yummy enough to eat quickly anyway. Fair prices and no wait on a busy day. Place was packed and still no wait. Well done to our server too, very nice servers and they clean up quickly

Visited on a Saturday noon and was told the wait would be about 40 minutes. They gave us a buzzer so we could walk around the nearby shops or wait in the car. Luckily, we got called in earlier than expected. The place was very busy, but the food was fresh and tasty. Prices were very reasonable and the servers were pleasant.

The food was great! I had the buffet and my husband had the ham loaf. I highly recommend the buffet and trying a bit of everything. I also highly recommend the shoo fly pie!

The buffet food was great however we had an issue with them trying to seat us near a stairwell exit door ( how odd as we are not trash) that would put my Mother in-law (who flew in from Guatemala to go on vacation with us)in the aisle and in the direct path of anyone walking past to get to their table as well as all entering and exiting the area. I asked the young man who tried to place us there that this was unacceptable but he seemed to have dozens of excuses (none of them good) as to why he couldn't seat us at several empty booth and tables (some table were reserved for show goers but not all). Why am I treated like a second class citizen to the show goers as our money is green too just like there's. After walking back up to station area passing at least close to a dozen tables and booths that were available the woman hostess there seems to not mind to provide us with a booth as we waited shortly but then were seated. Our waitress came by shortly and she was great. So they saved our evening thanks to their comprehension that our first placement was offensive unlike the young man who could care less where he "dumped" us and have a sorry "song and dance" that made us feel unwanted. Food was excellent and what a great selection. Waitress was friendly and helpful as she smiled a lot. Place seemed clean and we enjoyed our meals. If not for the first ridiculous seating attempt I would have given 5 stars. Maybe train workers who deal closely with the customers to practice empathy in the future.

We had a great experience when we went. The food was good, deserts were wonderful. Our server, Jaun, was the best. Professional, funny, and on top of things. Took another group of friends a week later. Ask for Jaun. They loved him. We will definitely be going back.

Short wait time, but worth the wait! The food was absolutely delicious. Deserts we're too! Our waitress was so nice and helpful. (Our first time there since they re-opened) Returned the next day to get a couple gifts and whoopie pies! Will return in the future!

Great food prepared by an amazing chef who demonstrates his passion for cooking. The table service/ waitresses provided excellent customer service. Plenty of free on site parking and handicapped parking is available. Family and kids friendly, comfortable atmosphere. Handicap and wheelchair accessible without any restrictions. I highly recommend this restaurant for everyone.

the food was horrible, but dessert was good. your choices are very limited when it comes to a main dish. the mashed potatoes were runny, the perogies were doughy, the stewed tomatoes were sweet and still pretty chunky. the tomatoes that were at the salad bar were disgusting. i picked one up and it was black. there was a huge black spot on it. there were quite a few actually that had black spots on it. there was really no quality in the food. the spaces between the different bars was very limited and your constantly running into someone or being stared at by someone. service was decent, our waiter was pretty nice though.

Food was mostly average except the meatloaf was pretty good. The green beans unfortunately were canned. For soups they had chili, vegtable, corn chicken or stuff pepper soup. The stuff pepper soup was spicy. You can get the full buffet or the soup/salad buffet. Sarah the waitress was excellent and very professional. She was very kind to us and explained how the buffet worked since we have never been there before.

Great food. Friendly service. Wonderful atmosphere. There's a varied selection of offerings. You can pay for the all you can eat buffet or just part of the buffet like soup/ salad/ and dessert. I'd eat here every week if I lived nearby. I'll definitely return when I'm in the area.

Hearing people get 1hr waits made me excited that we had reservations. But then it went down hill. Hostess gave a questioning tone when I asked for 2 high chairs. Waitress spilled water on my phone. Food came in one wave (literally within 5 minutes) including appetizer and main courses. Wings were fine but we got burnt end of the short ribs. Literally took longer to flag a waitress than get it replaced with chicken. Which was chewy. Pretty much the only things we enjoyed were the beer and wings. 3 times we were asked if we wanted to take food home and said no thanks "we didn't really like the food". To which they said "oh okay, have a nice night". Honestly. Good thing the kids were rather quiet and enjoying the cheap cheese pizza. Also, it was more than half empty when we left am hour later. So, wait times seemed like a push for a quiet night.

My husband and I ate here last Thursday for date night. We started with the burnt ends for an appetizer. They were good but a little dry. My husband had a combo platter which includes 1/3 rack of ribs, were seasoned nicely and not smothered in sauce. There is housemade sauce on the table to sauce your own way and brisket. He enjoyed his meal with 2 sides which were fries and Cole slaw. I had platter also and I picked the brisket and smoked turkey. Same issue with the brisket nice thick slices though. The smoked turkey was wonderful. Nice smoky flavor and moist not dry. I also had fries and Cole slaw. We enjoyed our meal and will return in the future

We were staying the night at Amish View Inn and made reservations for dinner. WOW we highly recommend the staff were wonderful. Recommend making reservations before visiting. We had mash potatoes, fried chicken, brisket & coleslaw. Fried chicken was really good. Brisket a little dry. The only downside is that it gets very noisy hard to hear.

This place was great. The service was super friendly and the food was delicious. Our server Mark was on point. Made sure we had our drinks refilled and that our food came out quickly. We got some wings and me and my son both got the 2 meat combo platter that comes with 2 sides. The portions are great and so is the price. I would definitely come back and try another combo platter. The fried chicken was delicious!

Cool BBQ restaurant in Intercourse PA. Not too long of a wait but you can leave your number with the hostess and browse the gift shop until they text you that your table is ready. Once seated our waitress/bartender quickly got our drink orders and once we were served that we put in an order for smoked wings as an appetizer. Dinner followed shortly after. Our kids ate delicious homemade mac and cheese and pasta with marinara (an odd option for a BBQ place but I'm glad they had it) My meal of ribs and fried chicken was ok. Both meats were a little dry. The mashed potatoes were really buttery and the seasonal vegetables were seasoned nicely. My husband enjoyed his half rack of ribs but would have liked them better if they were cooked with BBQ sauce because his were a little dry as well. The desserts were probably the best part of the meal. We ordered one strawberry cheesecake with cookie crumb crust and a large brownie sundae which was large enough for 3 to share. Overall we enjoyed our dinner. The server was polite and attentive and the rest of the staff made sure our table was cleared and we had what we needed.

Berto our server took extra care with us. He was attentive to our special needs son and made him feel comfortable throughout the visit. Also my wife recently had esophageal surgery and he understood her restrictions and made sure to accommodate her. He continued to check on our table throughout our visit and asked us not to worry about anything. It is refreshing to have waiters/servers who actually care. Also Colleen the busboy was amazing at her job. She worked tirelessly there while time we were there. The food was really good. I recommend this restaurant to anyone and everyone.

So I ordered the build your own plate and got the brisket and pulled pork. The pulled pork was ok, but the brisket was dry and burned.the staff was nice but my server saw me pulling burnt brisket off my plate (I was a server for 12 years and I would have said something like"is there a problem with your meal")...but nothing. The atmosphere was nice had like a rustic look like old timey western look. The pictures they have of food on Google looked so good I was very disappointed.

Great food and service. Food came out super quick and the peanut butter served with dinner rolls was delicious. The Tuesday Special Amish Wedding Meal was amazing, I highly recommend it! Prices are great and portions are large. Family friendly too with large playground sets across the parking lot. It started to get very crowded with a lot of people waiting around 5-5:30 so I’d recommend getting there for an early dinner.

A must stop while in the Strasburg area! Typically during peak times they will be a wait, but we felt it was worth it. The food was hot and delicious! Our server was sweet and attentive! We definitely recommend this restaurant for some authentic Amish food and service 🥰

The wait was about 35 min at 2-3 pm on a Friday. I didn't mind the wait, but it gets crowded/congested fast! Lillian was our server and she was so very nice and attentive. We are visiting from Texas and needed a good warm meal. We were not dissapointed! The rolls and the peanut butter spread were amazing! My husband ordered the Philly cheese steak and enjoyed it. I ordered the grilled fish, Mac n cheese, and a garden salad. Everything was so fresh and delicious! The staff was so so nice and all with smiles. We also had shofly pie and a pumpkin whoopie pie for dessert. Amazing! Tasted soo good! Highly recommend this place!

We waited in line for about 50 minutes at this restaurant we chose for dinner. The staff were very kind and extremely friendly. The food was delicious and the portions were large. It’s definitely a place I’d love to visit again.

This place is worth your visit. Staff exceed kindness and attentiveness in every way. And food was simple,classic, and portions that make sure you don’t leave hungry. The dinner rolls were so soft my kids are still talking about them! We are just passing through but if in the area again this will be a returning stop!

We had an AMAZING breakfast at Katie’s Kitchen at 200 Hartman Bridge Road in Ronks, PA! Our server was Rebekka and you couldn’t ask for a sweeter or a more helpful server! Katie’s Kitchen is an owned and operated Amish-staffed restaurant on Rt. 896. It has a dining room with indoor counter and booth seating; as well as outdoor shaded picnic tables. They are open for Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner every day except Sunday and Monday. They are open 7:30am- 7:00pm. On Saturday, they close at 6:00 pm. They offer Pennsylvania Dutch favorites including Amish desserts and soft-serve ice cream for dine-in or take out. The restaurant also offers catering service for events. Katie’s Kitchen has been opened since 2006. If you are looking for a delicious breakfast with Amish atmosphere, please look no further and try Katie’s Kitchen. They even have a very small but cute area that sells Amish goods (jams, children and adult Amish clothing and souvenirs). Rebekka left us a Bible Verse on the back of our bill!❤️

You probably haven’t had a breakfast like this since you were a kid at Grandmas house. HUGE portions and amazing. These fried potatoes! Oh my! Taste like they were soaked in cream and butter for a week before frying. That bacon I swear was squealing an hour ago. Then the friendly Amish / Mennonite staff just topped it off. My wife now wants to move here just to have this breakfast in the mornings but within a month she’d be the size of that cow across the road, so we’ll stay in West Virginia. I don’t know if these are the people that will prepare the marriage supper of the lamb, but I’ve put in a request for breakfast the next morning.

This place was fantastic!! Had the bricked chicken that was so flavorful and moist. BBQ meatloaf sandwich was huge and hugely GREAT! Nice meatloaf, bacon, tomato, and BBQ sauce. As big as my wife's head. My son had the chicken strip platter (shareable). Very good. Son said the fries were super good. Had good chocolate cake. The hot chocolate was good. The PEANUT BUTTER pie is "slap yo mama good"!! No lie.

Soooo, you are going to see Sight and sound (great experience), want a dinner that is just as amazing?? The Fireside Tavern is the place to get that amazing. We were running a little late to get to the show and our servers response!!? “ No problem, we will get it done!”. The meals were excellently prepared and the portion sizes border on “too much”. The restaurant is very comfortable and not cramped at all. As you can imagine I confidently recommend the Fireside Tavern, to be honest 4.6 is low in my opinion, I give it 5 stars.

I visited the Fireside Tavern with my husband for our anniversary. The service, atmosphere and mussels were excellent. We ordered the fried mozzarella and garlic white wine mussels, both were very good. The mozzarella was fried perfectly and I can't express how much I loved the mussels. My husband had the french dip, it was loaded with prime rib and the au jus was flavorful. I had the jalapeño popper burger, I enjoined the roasted jalapeños but felt the cheddar cream cheese was too heavy and took much of it off. As for drinks, I ordered a specially drink called the Golden Hour which I was not a fan of, it included bourbon and a brown butter wash. Luckily husband liked it, and I tried the vanilla bourbon which was fantastic. If you try Fireside Tavern get the mussels!

Wow! Not sure how else to explain. First visit ever and I can't wait to return. Diamond was our server and wow does she deserve a round of applause! Wonderful, helpful and over all kind. So many gluten free options which is hard for me when I go out, so tonight to have so many choices besides a salad was great. Got the stuffed shrimp 🍤 and boy it did not disappoint! So very full but of course had to try a gluten free dessert. The shortcake bar was amazing. Can't wait to return!

Very good dining experience! Our server, Jeff, was excellent. The food tasted very good overall. The atmosphere was fine for a casual dining tavern. We had a party of ten next to us...a lot of noise. I needed a little more zest for my Thai Grilled Chicken. I was amazed about the amount of cabbage for the salad. It was well-dressed. Perhaps it would've been better with some basil or cilantro if I'd be very critical. I'll recommend this place. Just a few minutes walk from Holiday Inn Express & Suites.

Had dinner 6:30 Friday evening, Megan took excellent care of us during our visit, and was able to address an ingredient concern with ease. The Tavern Fries and the Brick Chicken were great, but the star of the show was the Bone-in smoked pork chop. The bacon jam was outstanding. The dining room was clean and tastefully decorated. Noise wasn’t an issue at all. Would definitely recommend if you’re in the area.

Drinks off the bat sucked they were like water with fruits no liquor at all soup me and my daughter had were great i ordered the stuff shrimp with crab meat not worth the 31.00 bastami rice seemed microwaved my wife's sandwich was ok red lobster serves better food for there price not even a salad with my dinner never mind a piece of Italian bread. One and done.

My first time at Route 30 Diner. There was plenty of Car and Truck Parking. I showed up at 7:50pm and I didn't know they closed at 8pm. However They gave a prompt greeting and sat me down without even letting me know they were closing soon. They waiter was patient with Me as He told Me to take My time. The Food came out quick and hot. It was delicious. There were plenty of booth seating and bar counter seating as well. The Bathroom was clean.

I will definitely be back!! The breakfast I ordered here was amazing! Also in these times it was very affordable! 😁 Service was really quick for the amount of people dining in (was pretty full) And they were very friendly! Kudos!!!

4/12/25 7:30am My husband found this place at the last moment for our short visit to PA. At the first I was not happy at all, because is not the type of breakfast places I usually go. The place inside is very small and outside is not impressive, but OMG our breakfast was sooooo good! Coffee too! I ordered 2 eggs, toast and home fries and my husband ordered a spicy jalapeño sausage casserole. The waiter was very attentive. I definitely recommend this place. Thanks!

We had a great experience and great food. The service was so fast and everyone was so kind. We also got in right away on a Saturday afternoon when things were real busy everyone. Thank. You so much!

We stopped by this diner in Amish country and were pleasantly surprised by their accommodating vegetarian options. They made a veggie wrap by customising from the menu, fries were hot and fresh, the lemonade was refreshing; the onion rings could have been better. Prices were reasonable, making it a good value. The ambience was retro style and tte overall experience was a blend of local hospitality and thoughtful service. Highly recommend this place!

This was our second time here while visiting taking a mini vacation in Lancaster. We love the feel of the old time dining car. The staff is always friendly and the food always delicious.

Old school PA diner!! Hot roast beef sandwich with mashed potatoes. Great patty melt too. Fast, friendly and delicious!!!

Olde Mill Restaurant is a hidden gem you absolutely need to add to your itinerary! We had the pleasure of dining here during our stay at The Inn & Spa at Intercourse Village, and we received a voucher for a free appetizer with the purchase of two entrées—such a thoughtful touch and a perfect way to complete our experience. The food was delicious, beautifully prepared, and full of flavor. From the first bite to the last, everything exceeded our expectations. The customer service was top tier—the staff was warm, welcoming, and had the kind of friendly, smiling faces that make you feel like family. It was no surprise to learn that the same wonderful owner of the Inn & Spa, Carl, also owns this restaurant. You can feel the same spirit of excellence and intentional hospitality in every part of the experience. One thing to note: you’ll order your drinks separately, but don’t let that deter you. The quality of the food, the outstanding service, and the cozy atmosphere make it well worth the visit. This place made our trip even more special—we’ll absolutely be returning!

This restaurant is trying too hard. The liquor is handle by another party. Don't get the chicken meal cause it's an airline wing at and it's $28.00 with no food. (They will explain it to you it's an Airline wing at like it some kind of royal food) Lexis our server didn't tell us her name we didn't know her name till we got the bill she young but come on. (When got our food she no where to be found my husband had to get someone else and this other guy came over to explain the chicken who cares he doesn't want it make as royal as you want.) I will share a picture of the chicken meal so you will see not worth $28.00. My salad was ok too much dressing it was swimming. My mom got a salam sandwich she really liked it. She thinks the best sandwich there. Oh the paid the Amish to eat there. The Liquor is handled by wine company. My sangria was good but not much fruit in my mom got the wine flight and my husband got a whiskey sour I think. I wanted another drink I told are server I really didn't think she told the woman but then she finally came. My husband ordered a burger that was much better. Now breakfast you have go to this restaurant for the breakfast and I thought the other people were rude staying there no they were just fighting for the food. The local Amish eat there for free to give Amish atmosphere and it's insane and then breakfast is over get there on time cause the locals come and take everything that's left my husband asked one of the guys that worked and he yeah they allow that here I just work here. By time we got there was no yogurt they had fo fill the eggs and you had to wait. Be careful when leave there horse poop all over the roads cause you need that atmosphere you really don't you see them in the area. But get there early. It was very stressful.

What a wonderful experience I had I have nothing bad to say about this amazing place. The food was phenomenal the servers and all of The staff went above and beyond to make us feel like family even the owner was there and came to our table and spoke to us directly. The bacon wrapped scallops so delicious and the pork chop just juicy as ever no complaints here. If you’re in the area, definitely stop in cause I’ll definitely be back!

We were excited to try a new place as we are from out of state. The waitress was friendly. The food looked good but was barely warm and had no flavor, like the cook forgot to use seasoning. Both the dishes that were ordered were sent back and we were only refunded for one which I disagree with since we didn't eat them. The place was quiet which I can understand now why it wasn't busy. Would not go back, very disappointing.

My husband and I recently enjoyed dinner at this restaurant using a coupon for a free appetizer with two entrees from the Inn and Spa at Intercourse. My husband had Beef Tips and a lovely salad. I had Linguine with Grilled Vegetables. We started our meal with bacon wrapped scallops. Our food was served hot, tasted very good, and was beautifully presented. We also had old fashioneds served by the bar. Overall, our dining experience was very pleasant. The staff were friendly from the bartender to our waitress, Abigail. We would definitely return when in the area again.

I worked with Carl to plan a surprise birthday dinner for my mother. He was very responsive, thorough, and helpful planning our large party meal. My mother was so pleased, and they were so accommodating to young children we had with us. Our server and the bartender were wonderful as well. Thank you for everything!

The service was was really good. Everyone was very nice and friendly. The food was not as great. The salad i had was really good with the house made dressing. The bacon wrapped scallops were pretty good. The spinach and artichoke dip really wasn't that great and the stuffed salmon was OK. I love risotto so I tried it and I was a bit disappointed.

The best pretzels we’ve ever had. My 6 year old enjoyed them too. We tried sesame and garlic. They were both delicious. The prices are reasonable. They have outdoor seating.

Best pretzel I’ve ever had! Worth the drive over from Baltimore. Go a head and get a few because you will want more than one!

I love finding new pretzel places. Found this small pretzel place and wanted to give it a try. They have a variety of pretzel options. I ordered the regular salted pretzel to compare it to other pretzel places. My pretzel was good but not great. I’ve had better pretzels in the Lancaster County area. It wasn’t as soft or as buttery for my personal taste but it was still good. I also tried their real fruit strawberry smoothie. The smoothie was actually really good and really fruity. You can see and taste the real fruit in their smoothies. I would go back for a smoothie when in the area.

Great little place to visit. $2.75 per pretzel. Young Amish women making them fresh. Good variety.

We drove from Philadelphia just for the tasty treats offerred here. Its a small shop that hit the spot where Pretzels are concerned. Very charming young polite staff and the smoothies where refreshing.

Nice warm pretzels. This store seems to be run by Mennonites. $2.75 for a pretzel.

My wife treated us today to pretzel wrapped sausages and a pretzel for dessert. We’ve become regular customers over the years and enjoy the homemade taste of Immergut “homemade” soft pretzels. When in Lancaster County, your visit isn’t complete without “Immergut” Hand rolled soft pretzels!!

This place is great! We started off on a rough note, the room we got was clearly not what is pictured on their website. I spoke to the management and they took care of it. Gave us a different beautiful room at no additional cost and made sure the rest of our stay was flawless. Food was awesome. The resort itself was beautiful and the pool was great, a little chilly but the kids didn’t care. The employees there were so nice and very accommodating. Would definitely stay again.

I’ve been staying at Hershey Farm since I was 6 I’m 46 now. This is my home away from home the staff treats you like family with open arms. The new building since having a fire. Is so modernized but with a farmstead feel. Good food never disappoints my wife loves the baked French Toast. We make it a point to stay 1-2 times a year. Keep up the great job. God Bless

Recently stayed at the Hershey Farm Inn and I will start off by saying that the property is absolute beautiful you’re surrounded by greenery and the structure with the shops and restaurant is built very nicely. They do have different options for the rooms. We stayed in the cottage House and unfortunately, for the first night didn’t have a great experience. There was an issue with our room and they were not able to move us since they were fully booked. However, the next day management took care of the issue with our room and our second night stay was much better. The room is nothing lavish. It’s pretty small and basic. I suggestion that would be nice is if they added a built-in shampoo, conditioner, and body wash into the Showers. I would consider staying here again and possibly in the actual main hotel. Something we really enjoyed was the pool and the buffet breakfast. There was a great selection of food and the restaurant was very nice as well.

Didn't stay at resort, went to sights and sounds play Thursday evening and the restaurant was literally 50 yds from theater. Thought I could eat, had absolutely no idea the price was $33/person and the food was either overcooked and bland or the dining area was so packed with tour busses it took 25 mins to make 1 plate. Would not recommend and will not return again.

Absolutely loved our stay at Hersey Farm Resort and will choose this place for our next visit. The grounds are wonderful, rooms are very upscale with the most comfortable mattresses I have ever slept on, and the breakfast smorgasbord was delicious and abundant! There was a slight issue, but management resolved it to my satisfaction. Also, the staff at the front desk were wonderful. Only recommendation for improvement is for more room for the little goats stuck in those small caged areas. Someone mentioned there were plans to provide more space to them, and I hope so because they made me sad every morning on my walk.

This review is for the buffet/smorgasbord. Dare I say it’s better than Shady Maple for breakfast. Every item on the buffet was high quality. I loved the baked oatmeal, and the pancakes, they had blueberry, and chocolate chip. They also have an omelet and waffle station. The soft serve ice cream is some the best I’ve had outside of Japan (try the chocolate). All the staff were so friendly and pleasant also. I can’t wait to come back and try their lunch/dinner and maybe even stay for the night. The restaurant is really bright and open too with lots of windows! For more food reviews, watch my channel @RossEats on YouTube!

Went to the Smorgasbord after Sight & Sound Theatre show today. This was our 1st time back to the Hershey Farm buffet since 12/2017. Huge disappointment. The food used to be warm and flavorful and the carved prime rib was the best. Now the food is cold, and flavorless with dry meat and you can’t even get a warm roll. There is no more carving station. The only items we enjoyed were desserts. Waitress was great. We miss the country charm of the old Hershey Resort and the great food.

Less than impressed. We had high hopes it had decent reviews and a good google score. We made reservations to make sure we could get in, and after arriving, we got to stand awkwardly in the doorway, waiting to be seated. I think I make eye contact with every waiter/waitress there, but not even so much as a "Hey, we will be with you in just a minute." After about 10 minutes or so, someone finally greeted us and showed us to our table. We ordered drinks when we sat down, which didn't arrive until after we finished our appetizer. I ordered fish and chips, which were definitely not battered in house or fried particularly well. My girlfriend had the pot roast which was edible but not great. I hate to leave a bad review, and I normally won't, but this place just really did nothing right in our opinion. Maybe it was an off night or whatever the excuse. We basically wasted $80 bucks on TV dinner food.

It was just OK. We stayed at the hotel which I easily gave 5 stars. I made a brunch reservation. We were standing at the entrance and after employees looked at us a few times standing there my wife spoke up and we got seated. They didn't even acknowledge we we standing there. Only 5 tables were seated at the time. It took a little while to get drinks and to be able to place our order. At this time there were 4 tables seated. We only got our food 55 minutes after our reservation time. The foods were breakfast items and were nothing special. We will stay at the hotel again but will get breakfast somewhere else.

Food was okay. I had the crab cakes and they were loaded with what seemed to be a rich mayo base. I didn't enjoy it. The ribe steak that my husband ordered was fatty and grisly and loaded with a brown gravy. He was hoping to have a nice grilled steak. Although our waitress was friendly, she lacked attentiveness. When we finally finished eating, we waited twenty minutes as she passed us by several times to bring out orders and take away plates, to get a takeout box which we asked for 3 times. I was taking home the crab cake, which was definitely not worth taking. At one time this restaurant may have been a place to definitely visit but I agree with other reviews that it has passed its time. There can definitely be improvements on waitstaff and food. The older gentleman playing at the piano played some nice old tunes.

Although seemingly small, the menu offers very good variety and good balance. The weight staff is very friendly very quick service. However, they kept giving me refills without asking, although not necessarily a bad thing I do it would be necessary to ask sometimes. Also, the best part is that you’re literally eating in a steamboat! The atmosphere is really cool, and there’s even a section on the history of Robert Fulton, who apparently designed the steamboat and early submarine technology. Great value for the money. Love it.

3 at best on this day. When I am in an area, I always try to find some plane local. They started with a nice tomato soap and a chef salad. When trying a spot for the true value of tasting pleasure, I have water to drink. The Steamboat Martini was nice. (See picture.) The service was good, nothing above a good employee doing her job. The atmosphere was nice, welcoming, and the decor was put together well. That's about as good as it was. The fish and chips (their classic dish) was disappointing all around. The fish lacked flavor, and the chips (fries) were fast level. The steak (today's special for $40) was a true letdown. The green beans did nothing for my taste buds as well the mashed potatoes let me looking for water. The main focus of the dish was truly a puck. To look at it, the outside seared to invite you in. Once, cutting (with force) the inside, the flavors, the texture, and the overall steak was sad. I would not recommend this dish. It could be by chance, and this was an off moment. With that said, I will not be stopping in if I am in this area in the future. Enjoy the moments, Cheers

The quaint nostalgia that this place once had still lingers, but has past its prime. While the food really is good, the abrasive staff seems like they have lost their enthusiasm of being there. We even made reservations and STILL waited for a table. The old crotchety piano player had “imbibed” a little too much and, while he was friendly with us, was dissing anyone who irritated him. All of that collected, it really didn’t make it worth returning, even if we didn’t stay at the hotel. And then, there’s the hotel…..🫣

Tasted like prepped food thrown in a microwave and into plate. The space definitely needs an update and they need to do something about the food coming out of that kitchen. The server was very nice and that's the only highlight.

Great place to stop off for breakfast. The food was very fresh. The waiters were very attentive. After 8:30 AM it gets very busy. The place was very clean, and calming. I would definitely recommend it. And I would go back. Kid, friendly, and wheelchair accessible. There’s plenty of parking with a free parking lot.

I love this place! It’s always a great stop for a fresh quality breakfast and a fancy coffee. Great staff and service, food is always excellent, and the vibe is relaxed and welcoming. The manager is amazing! Highly recommend!

I had breakfast here after spending the night in a motel next door. I had pancakes, which were very tasty. My server Lilliana did a great job taking and filling my order.

Everything was great here.. So far all the beverages we've tried are delicious.. I would highly recommend breakfast.. Haven't tried lunch yet but If breakfast is any indicator in sure it's amazing.. Server was great with orders just a little slow checking out..

This was a great stop for breakfast. We were away for the weekend, and I needed my coffee. I also wanted a little something for breakfast. Best choice ever. I had the Sammy Jammy and my husband the steak bowl. The Sammy Jammy is an everything bagel, scrambled egg, bacon, hot pepper Jam cream cheese, spinach tomato and onion. Wow, what a pop of flavor and of course a mocha latte, scrumptious. My husbands steak bowl was thin steak, cheese sauce, chimichurri and pickled onions with scrambled egg on a bed of hasbrowns. He wants to know if we can get a Coffee Co. Up hear. He also liked his regular coffee. That's saying something for him.

Great breakfast spot! Food and service were wonderful. We had the All star breakfast with speciality pancakes (lemon blueberry, strawberry Nutella, cinnamon bun…all the pancakes were great). My cappuccino was amazing. My girlfriend enjoyed her macadamia flavored iced beverage. Lovely spot, would definitely visit again when in town! Plenty of parking available in their parking lot.

Honestly the fluffiest pancakes I’ve ever had soooo yummy and good.

⭐⭐⭐⭐½ This new American café has a lot to love — the food is fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with quality ingredients. The menu offers a great mix of modern comfort dishes and seasonal specialties, perfect for brunch or a casual bite. The atmosphere is vibrant and energetic, with a stylish, welcoming vibe that makes it a fun place to catch up with friends or enjoy a relaxed weekend outing. The only downside was the wait time. During peak hours, we had to wait over an hour to get seated, which was a bit frustrating. That said, the staff was courteous, and once we were in, the experience made up for it. Overall, definitely worth visiting — just plan ahead if you’re going during a busy time!

Food is really good and the service staff are friendly. I would suggest people stick to the smoked meats portion of the menu, I thought the fried shrimp were very underwhelming... While the smoked burnt ends were absolutely delicious. The Mac and cheese and mashed potatoes also very good. It is pricey though, but for the smoked burnt ends the portion was very large. On the other hand the shrimp portion wasn't that large. I wouldn't recommend the shrimp, but the smoked meat was good enough I'll rate them high. 75 dollars for only 2 people though, pricey but good meat, good portion sizes.

The food here is five star, and abundant, you are not shorted on your meal and you’ll likely leave with a to-go box. There was a little bit of a wait, but good restaurants create lines because of their popularity and a wait would be expected, so plan for that. Atmosphere is loud with chatter, but it’s enjoyable as life is good and people are excited. Take it as a positive. I have food sensitivity and always feel good and energized after my meal, which is rare. Many specialty non-alcoholic coffees and fruit spritzers. Please pay them a visit. Family owned and operated, everyone works hard to make the experience enjoyable.

I loved the place. The staff is very attentive and helpful, and everyone has a welcoming smile. The food is very good, and the portions are large. The desserts are delicious, especially the caramel cookie crumble affogato. 100% recommended.

This place is pretty awesome! The food is delicious and reasonably priced. All the staff were warm and welcoming. If I had known about this place earlier, I would’ve come here every time I visited Lancaster, PA.

Ate lunch here yesterday with my family. The service was kind and efficient and the food was fresh and flavorful. I ordered the veggie wrap and it came with chips and a pickle. I also got the homemade snickers bar. My husband ordered the smoked brisket with Brussels sprouts and sweet potato fries. The fries were the best!

Stopped in here to grab a fancy coffee. Such a cute little spot very close to Sight and Sound theater. I had a brown butter espresso recommended by the woman at the counter. It was very crowded and I had to wait more than 20 minutes for the coffee. They said the girl who makes the coffee was backed up. I really didn’t mind the wait because the shop next door was so lovely to browse. The coffee was delicious and hit the spot. Will go here again next year when we come for the Joshua show.

As we got ready to drive home, i wanted to stop at Zook's to buy a couple of their frozen chicken pies, one for dinner after we got home to keep things simple and tasty. We also bought some frozen sticky buns. Everything kept very well on the 5 hour drive in the little cooler and we had a chicken pie for dinner which was scrumptious. They also have canned goods and other grocery items. The store is spotlessly clean! i think we have a new tradition, a way to bring home a little Amish cooking with us.

If you like Chicken pot pies and you haven't been here, what are you waiting for? These are the best chicken pot pies and beef pot pies that I have ever had. You will definitely enjoy every type of goody Zook's has to offer.

The best chicken pot pies I've ever had... beef and sausage pot pies are excellent as well. Everything we have gotten from the little market there has been very good.

I have to say that all the years we ( the wife and I) have going to Lancaster and we found Zooks ,and love the pies . Chicken has big chunks of chicken, not pieces that you have to get the magnifying glass to find the chicken. The same with all their pies . Now I can get them at my grocery store ,but still like to go for the ride.

We will no longer be buying the chicken pies. We used to buy them all the time. We bought one about a year ago, hardly any meat in it. We bought another pie last week thinking maybe the last one we had was a fluke. No, this one had five small pieces of chicken in the whole pie. I'm sorry to say we will no longer be buying any of your products, which is sad because we used to love your chicken pies.

Nice selection of desserts, seasonings, and canned foods, delicious home made chicken corn noodle soup and the famous Chicken Pies ! (Sausage and beef pies also available). Different varieties of chocolates and more. Great place to grab dinner and dessert to take home.

Zook's pot pies are delicious. Whenever we're in Lancaster County, we buy a cooler full. We keep them frozen and eat them year-round. We stopped at Zook's new location about two weeks after it opened. They now have a much larger shop with condiments, pickles, and other locally canned foods. Try it - you'll like it.

Been here a few times now, always slow... lady making the subways seems nice, but stops making to talk to other people.. I just wanna get and go. And was charged a TIP?!? Paid with card and a $1.42 was added as a "tip" I NEVER Aproved a tip.. never clicked anything to add a tip.. never even touched the pay pad, I paid with card tap. I'll stop at Rudders right down the road from now on.. not happy.

Great service- new owner/ manager Much better experience

Staff was amazing and gave us great food. We were treated so well and they made our food with care. Highly recommend this subway over any subway in the county and I’ve been to them all!

Rude employee , bad experience overcharged in presence of owner

Stores hours state they are open until 10 p.m. on a Wednesday night. I got there about 9:50 p.m. and they were already completely shut down. The area was dark. I questioned the woman behind the counter about the hours stating they're open until 10, and she laughed and pointed at the clock and said it is 10! In my line of work if our hours say we are open until a certain time, we wait on customers until that time. If that involves cleaning up after we close, so be it. I drove almost 30 minutes to this location for the second time now and left empty-handed. The only reason I'm even trying to go to this location is because I bought a Groupon... And it wasn't clearly marked that it was a local flavor certificate for a specific location! I believe tomorrow I will be contacting Groupon for my money back, as this is a piss poor location! If their customer service is this bad I can't even imagine how terrible their food must be.

amazing service amazing food loved the atmosphere!!!

Very nice location, spacious and clean. And very welcoming too. Make delicious pizza here. The cheese pizza with veggies and green peppers really good.

Pleasant place to eat at. Good for a quick bite. Definitely causal spot. Great view of the trains. Got the chicken sandwich, strawberry salad and smash burger. Filling food, $5 to make things a meal (fries & drink). Clean and friendly staff.

I recently visited Café 1832, and while the food itself was just okay—not bad, but nothing particularly memorable—the overall experience was made much better by the service. The staff was genuinely friendly and welcoming, which created a warm and inviting atmosphere. Sometimes great service can make up for a meal that doesn’t quite hit the mark, and that was definitely the case here. Everyone I interacted with had a positive attitude and seemed happy to be there, which really added to the experience. If you’re looking for a spot with kind people and good vibes, Café 1832 is worth a visit. I’d come back more for the people than the plate, but sometimes that’s just what you need.

We visited this place after the train ride for a coffee. Ambience was so warmth and welcoming, and the staff were super friendly. I got seated right away. The waitress took care of me, and I ordered a chicken nuggets, sandwich, French fries and Coffee. I would totally recommend this place, and the quality of the food and service here was beyond expectation. Also it’s pocket friendly and has outside patio seating to enjoy the serene atmosphere.

The food here is great! The smash burger is delicious and the fries are nice and crispy. It's small, so both times we've eaten here we've sat on the front porch. It has tables that you can eat at or a high top ledge that gives you a nice few of the train coming and going. The children's meal came with apple slices and fries, so my child was happy.

I haven’t had a burger this bad in a long time. I saw some good reviews, but I feel like something must have changed in the kitchen. nothing here seems professional at all

If you want to wait 15 minutes for a cheeseburger and fries, this is your type of place. The location is nice, however, the service is slow. When there was 5 slips up, it took others the same amount of time. Yikes...

First the good: convenient for those visiting the train station, the burger was good and the buns were excellent, the fries were better than I expected. Indoor and outdoor seating to watch the trains. The bad: it's a tourist trap so prices are high. I paid $15 for a burger and fries. And they were good but not $15 good. The ugly; I asked for a cup of water because I didn't like soda and the cashier charged me the full soda price. I again explained I just wanted water, she said the cup costs $2.50. I just wanted tap water. I'm a water guy, I order water all the time and always get free tap water except for Cafe 1832. I could even understand a quarter. Perhaps it was a new employee or maybe that is the policy but it shouldn't cost $2.50 for a 12 oz cup of water. The food itself was better than expected, next time I'll just bring my own water.

We came here because other local brewery restaurants were full and one was closing soon. The lady who seated us was pleasant as was the waitress. The food and drinks were fabulous! However, I think the tip suggestions on the check out site are ridiculous considering we place our own order and get our own glasses of water. Also, once we received our food, no one asked how it was. I suppose since we already paid by phone it didn't matter what we thought. All things considered it was worth the money and we'll probably try it again if we're in the area.

Order on your phone and they bring you the food. The beer is good amd the food is so so. Nothing to write home about but it's definitely not bad. If your interested check the place out. It has a nice vibe and staff is friendly.

This place is the BEST spot in Lancaster county! We are from Philly and this place absolutely rocks. The food is incredible at a very fair price. Our only regret is we didn’t find it sooner. This is hands down our lunch or dinner spot when we are in the area. Also the staff are SO sweet. Absolutely love them!

First time visiting here. Was excited to see they had gluten free options since I have an allergy. We got French fries (not gf) with Garlic Aoili and Dill Aoili and I had shrimp tacos with corn tortillas. Very flavorful and filling. The flavors of everything were wonderful. Looking forward to returning.

I ordered a burger and mac & cheese. Was very good. The fries (table shared)and dipping sauce (dill aioli and garlic aioli) were wonderful. It felt a little cold in the building as we were seated directly under the a/c vent in a corner. Overall, I can't wait to visit again

Currently 4.4 but deserves closer to 4.9. Burger’s great, well cooked, great tasting local beef, I went Black and Blue no BBQ. Kid’s Burger is just as high quality. Mac & Cheese is well done as are the Fries. Couple nerds I was with got shrimp salads, they were good too I guess. Handful of kids high chairs and booster seats. Pretty good kids menu. Shuffleboard. Booths & ample seating. Great IPAs. Cold is better than Hoppenstance. This is a good meal and good beers.

Staff was friendly. Location was clean and attractive. Food was good. I felt the prices were a little high.

Very disappointed. Everything else was closed on Sunday so we came here big mistake. Tge charged us $65 for $35 dollars worth of food and forgot a whole order of breads ticks. My family will never eat tg Here again. The only thing good was the friendly staff

Excellent Pizza ! Staff , very friendly. Check out TA Express for great food and fuel .2622 Lincoln Highway East .Ronks Pa.

Didn’t get the pizza I ordered. Pizza was very undercooked.

Best Pizza in town. Don’t look any more.

Great pizza. Love it.

Food was hot and service was kind .

Really good 👍

No this is truck stop cooking at its most finely failed attempt. Dont eat this. Just get the subway located on the other side of the same gas station.

This chicken is surprisingly good as it's not overly salty and if you get it fresh it's pretty bomb diggity!

The chicken is okay. The customer service is horrible.

This place is always closed that what the employees always said,,they need to hired real people who want to work not this lazy guys

Closed before 2 on a Monday and it says they are open online

Fresh chicken and very good service

Good.
