35 Best American Restaurants near Abbottstown

“We went last Friday to celebrate a friends birthday. We just went in for drinks and appetizers so we went downstairs to the pub. I was surprised it was not very busy. The server came to the table in a reasonable time we ordered 2 beers and 2 martinis. It took a long time to get our drinks. The complimentary chips with balsamic were very good. I was disappointed in the appetizer selection. There were 3 soups, Brussels sprouts and crab dip. I was hoping for a few more options as our friends don’t like Brussels and I didn’t want soup to snack on. So we had crab dip and a lite fair item. Everything was very good but as soon as the server found out we were not planning on having dinner she essentially ghosted us. We still tipped her very well hoping it will boost her Evening and remind her not to brush off a table just because they are not having an entree. I look forward to going back. Everything we ate and drank were very good. I am eager To try more items. It was a nice place for celebrating with friends“

“We came here for dinner on a Saturday evening in September. We saw on Facebook that a musician we like was performing. Facebook has this listed as Center Square Brewing but the sign outside still says underside bar.

We sat at the bar. We ordered drinks and then dinner. I had the cashew crusted chicken and it was good. It came with two pieces of chicken and I took one home as leftovers. The steak meal was very good as well.

The bartender was friendly and attentive. There weren’t too many people down there. The atmosphere felt like a basement - I mean, it’s a little dark because it’s down stairs and there is no windows and everything is brown or dark colors. It was casual and relaxed. Prices were comparable to most other local places we go.

Parking was a free paved lot adjacent to the building.“

“We had a buffet style meal for 32 people and it was just awesome. The food was hot and delicious the server was a gem. Definitely would recommend for your gatherings.“

“Just passing through and we were looking for something good and simple. This is a must stop if you want outstanding service and food. The mgr Shawn was a rare bird. Extremely friendly with his greetings and exits with everybody as well as every coworker in the place. If I didn’t live 1500 miles away this would most definitely be my favorite eatery.
Thank you for making our experience exceptional.“

“they have the very best food around and very freindly people that work there they make sure you are happy with everthing.“

“We ate at Pattin' before seeing a Broadway show. We were seated immediately at a quaint table for 2 overlooking the street. The wine, the food (brussel sprouts, branzino, halibut), and the dessert (creme brule) were all amazing and we'd order every single item again. The service was also spectacular! The atmosphere was romantic and we loved being able to sit and talk while we experienced dining at Pattin'.“

“For awhile, there was some turnover in the cook staff and the service and food was not very good to be honest. Some of these issues seem to have been fixed and changes have been made for the better. Service is much faster and food quality has improved. If you haven't been there in some time, give it another chance. I'm glad to be patronizing again.“

“Carissa was our waitress and she was excellent! Our entrees and desserts were fantastic as well, but Carissa's great personality and professionalism made us decide that we will always ask to be seated in her section!“

“Had lunch at the upstairs bar today. Everything was wonderful.“

“Authentic Mexican food. Delicious.“

“I really love the food here, and never had a bad meal. We love going for breakfast and glad you changed from home fries to hash browns. But we don`t get there for breakfast much because you changed your hours. For us 10am is to late when you get up around 6am.Please try to open around 8am. I hate to have to go some place else for breakfast. Thank you“

“Excellent food is amazing“

“Always go for breakfast and it’s always great! Excellent friendly service! Restaurant is very clean and plenty of parking.“

“My husband and I order from here at least once a week. They have great food, they are convenient to our location and they meet all our exceptions when it comes to take out orders. My favorite by far is their Philly Cheese Steak Pizza! Oh my gosh...it is so good. If you like the sub you will love the pizza.“

“Good food , good prices , good service😊“

“Very outstanding,Delicious food. Service is beyond great! Chef Neil is there please. You will want to go back to Sidney's every chance you can.“

“Returned to Perkins after many years as was in the area. About an 1 1/2 hour before close, just my wife and I in the place, some people leaving as we arrived. The waitress was flying solo and doing double duty as hostess and was fantastic (Hannah I believe). She gave good recommendations, friendly service. I got a big breakfast and my wife got a quesadilla. Both were great. I remember when they opened years ago, and while the building shows its age in some places, will be visiting again when in Hanover area. All day breakfast!“

“CARRY OUT REVIEW

Locals know they serve to go breakfast sandwiches... now you do to!

So go stop in, quicker than the gas stations and better quality too. Yes there are drinks that are for your workday cooler like Monster type drinks, sodas and WATER. The sandwiches are really delicious... and UNDER $5.00
WAIT DID YOU SEE THAT?!?! A SANDWICH FOR LESS THAM 5$ WITH CHEESE AND BACON!!!

Plenty of parking in front to the carry out building. Easy in & out even when the traffic picks up.

If you look at my reviews, I like local eats over big corporations.“

“Best burgers! Look forward to opening day.“

“Tried it for the first time got the classic burger with bacon pieces and it was absolutely amazing and I let my daughter have a bite a she wanted to eat my whole burger… started running around the house yelling burger.. 😂 also ordered the Pierogi’s and they were good as well.. definitely worth trying. Although should have meal options… and more options period I saw other pics other ppl posted of other menus.. good place !“

“I came here 9 years ago broken by life yet again. I went to work and held my responsibilities but I needed a lot of alone time. Cathy is such a great listener. Donna is manager. I'm moving on today but I will always be connected to The Rambler Inn 💕“

“had another great experience at Dylan’s Bar in East Berlin! I ordered the ribs with mac and cheese and curly fries, and everything was absolutely excellent. The ribs were tender, flavorful, and cooked perfectly—they were just as good as the first time I came here and ordered them before. The mac and cheese was rich and delicious, and the curly fries were crispy and seasoned perfectly.

It’s always nice finding a place that stays consistent with both quality and service, and Dylan’s Bar definitely does that. The atmosphere was welcoming, and the staff was friendly and attentive throughout the visit.

After having such a great experience both times, I can confidently say I’ll definitely be coming back again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for great food and a great dining experience! 10/10 if you want amazing food you have to go!“

“My family and I visited Avalon Ale House not long ago and I felt I needed to share. The friendly staff was very attentive to our table. The exceptional food selection was a plus! I would recommend this to someone who has not visited and we will definitely be back again! Keep up the good work!!“

“Food was good, service great. Drinks delish!!“

“What a night! I finally took Cooper for his 1st Lobster. After watching lots of “Coyote Peterson” uTube videos for a couple months, he’d been asking me to take him to eat one. Today was the day. Thank you to Hanovers Red Lobster & their General Manager Michael, he gave us the ultimate educational experience & even sat down with us & showed Cooper how to eat it. Mike got the meat out while Cooper ate it 😂😂. Cooper loved every bite of it & dipped it in his “hot warm butter”. He suggested his 8 year old friend Mia, try a “no thank you bite” ( that’s my rule ! 😂) And, she liked it! It was so funny! Had a great time. Cooper had a blast & enjoyed having Mia join him too!! Thanks so much Michael, for accommodating my request, you’re the best👍😀“
