“Great People, Great Service, Great Food, Great Bar! Jay and Lars are Wonderful Owners! Nick and Aaron are great bartenders. We have been here over a dozen times for brunch, lunch and dinner. Food and Service is always excellent!“

“Love the Broad Axe! The chefs and bartenders are great! And I really enjoy the live music nights. 🎶🎸🥁“

“Riks is a total star. When you're standing in front of the restaurant you're in a parking lot of a an old shopping center. Once inside you're in a contemporary bar and restaurant. I believe that much of the work in creating the space was performed by the then staff, many of whom worked together with owners at a prior restaurant. The food is wonderful, creative, fresh and satisfying. My favorites include a smoked salmon salmon carpoccio (sorry about the spelling). A great selection of salads with the ability to. add to them crab cake chicken etc. The sandwiches range from a Reuben to a grilled mahi mahi .My favorite when I want a substantial dinner is their short ribs and mashed potatoes. Writing this review has just made me hungry. Guess where I'm going for an early dinner. Prices are VERY reasonable“

The bartender is outstanding and very personable. We love the Press Room. We have never been disappointed with any of our meals. The desserts are so scrumptious. 10 of of 10 every time we have visited The Press Room!“

“We enjoyed our lunch. The sweet potato fries were delicious. My burger was dry and overcooked, but had a good flavor. The chef's accommodating my gluten sensitivity was greatly appreciated. My grandson got the pizza and loved it! He was charmed by the cup that the hot chocolate was served in. He was also delighted by the surprise at the bottom of the mug, lol! Will definitely return.“

“Such a wonderful place! Delicious food, inspired chef, creative ideas in different events...I would love to go there daily...“

“Kolby was wonderful! He went out of his way to accommodate my husband with a corned beef sandwich customized to his liking. The crush drink specials were of good balance, not weak and not too strong. We got to enjoy watching the game & enjoy a few tunes. This was a good pit stop for us!“

“This review is many, many years overdue but Cafe Del Sol has been my #1 spot for so long. Its my go-to recommendation for a guaranteed good meal and good service. I dont remember when I started coming but I ate here for my 18th birthday back in 2007 and have been steadily returning ever since. The chicken caesar wrap has a chokehold on me, so much so that I have a hard time ever ordering anything else. I've had the pizza, chicken parm, nachos, and pesto panini which are all great and I highly recommend but the chicken caesar wrap is unmatched. I'm being dramatic but if it was ever taken off the menu or changed it would probably ruin my life. It's at the top of my list of favorite foods and I've gone to great lengths to make sure I can enjoy it, even when I lived thousands of miles away. I spent 5 years living in California and dare I admit that numerous times in those 5 years I made family members go through security and fly cross-country with a chicken caesar wrap in tow to get my fix. These days I don't have a Cafe Del Sol local to me (up around Carlisle) but I order take out as often as I can when I pass through. I cant recommend this place enough. As a self proclaimed chicken caesar connoisseur your going to have to trust me that their caesar wrap is unmatched. Its a must if you're in Hagerstown, Chambersburg, the surrounding areas, or passing through!“

“Stopped in for dinner food was good but service was great thanks to Mary!!!“

“My husband and I came into Cracker Barrel for dinner. Seth was our server and waited on us the entire time. I just wanted to let you know how friendly and attentive he was to us. Dinner was an especially great time meeting with Seth and he provided outstanding service. The food is always good at Cracker Barrel and Seth was a pleasant surprise. Looking forward to coming back and we will be requesting Seth again as our server.“

“I got a to-go order & the Server/Bartender was on point. It was kind of hard to pull up a menu, so she helped me pick out the top flavors quick & easy for a wing order (my fav). Then upon arrival, I accidently had my card turned off and instead of her coming back telling me how it was denied - she knew what was up ... or atleast gave me the chance vs embarassing me. I just thought that was so sweet how she handled it... kudos. It seems hard to find decent customer service out here these days! She made it seem so easy ❤️“

“Love this place it’s my 3rd time to be here 🖤🫶🏻“

“We had your food last night and it was fantastic! We make it a tradition to eat at your establishment early especially when we do our overnight in Shepherdstown around Christmas. Your food is always fresh! It’s the best around! We always leave happy and full! 💙“

“Friendly service staff both bar and floor“

“this was my second time to red lobster and it was a great experience. food was amazing and the workers there are so friendly and welcoming and helpful and hardworking. props to them. the restaurant is clean and a great atmosphere. my waitress her name was Niki if i’m remembering correctly, she’s so sweet and kind. i’ll be visiting soon again for sure. i loved the parrot isle coconut shrimp and the lobster tails were amazing and perfectly done. 😊😊😊😊 oh and the cheddar bay biscuits were so good and yummy, the pineapple juice was refreshing too“

“Wings are smoked and nice and crispy, fresh cut fries, and onion rings are great. Definitely coming back. Paige was awesome!! She does it all and does it well!“

“Wings on Thursdays are the BEST!“

“Our “go-to” spot! Robert is a great bartender! Foods good, drinks are great, and the crowd is very welcoming!“

“Since Stephanie started working there...we WILL start coming back again AND I'm "upping" this rating to FIVE stars! ?????We stopped frequenting for about 3 years because the bartending staff was pretty glum and unwelcoming.Yay, Ms. Stephanie for bringing the uppity AND chill vibes back into Pete's! ??“

“When you walk through the door it's like walking into your family home. Everyone looks at you and greet you with a smile. I love Ms. Linda, talking with her is like talking to my sister. All of the employees are very kind. They even remembered what I like to order and my bacon is always crispy not burnt.“

“My wife and I had a delicious meal , as always. We were served by Allison , her service was excellent and very efficient. As an employee , I hope she is appreciated.“

“Everything was great overall! We were greeted almost immediately after sitting down, honestly the fastest we’ve ever been greeted here. The first server who stopped by let us know he was just getting us started while our actual server was on her way in, and he was very kind and attentive. He even took the time to check on the table next to us and let them know the same.

Our server arrived shortly after, and the wait wasn’t long at all. She was friendly, attentive, and quick, despite explaining that she had an emergency before coming into work (over heard from the table next to us). The table next to us seemed frustrated, but she handled it professionally and kept things moving. Our food came out on time, everything was correct, and overall our experience with her was phenomenal.

However, I did witness something that took away from the experience. The table next to us flagged down another server, and when they asked for help, that server (Triniti) responded in a way that felt really unprofessional. She said things like, “I don’t even know who your server is,” and after being told, responded with, “Oh, I don’t even talk to her that much, I don’t know.” This was said within earshot while the table was already upset, which didn’t help the situation at all and reflected poorly on the team dynamic.

As a former server myself, I know how important teamwork is in a restaurant, especially when guests are already frustrated. It was disappointing to hear that kind of response.

Because of that interaction alone, I’m giving 4 stars, everything else, especially our server and the food, was excellent. I’d strongly encourage reinforcing teamwork among staff, because that moment didn’t match the otherwise great experience.“

“Thank you to Rumsey Tavern and staff for making our Wedding Day beyond what we expected. Services and food was amazing ! We truly appreciated everything! 🧡🤍🧡“

“Very delicious food, only the beef soup could be a little bit stronger, as I remember it from other Bob Evans. And I would cook it definitely stronger myself. But the rest was great.

I had a friendly waitress which was very guest focused and made a good atmosphere.
I was satisfied, I would come again to this Bob Evans, but it's my last night in the area.“
