44 Best American Restaurants near Boiling Springs

“I have loved Allenberry for years, but as of today (July 26 2025) I’m wondering if you switched restaurant managers or head chefs? We just had the strangest menu selections and did you change the interior of the Barn? It was perfect the way it was. You offer Chilean sea bass but the breeches is filled with trout yet don’t offer it? I can hear Gordon Ramseys voice in my head asking you guys why you don’t have something local and fresh. I’m no connoisseur, but meat/poultry/fish is best when sourced locally. A bit disappointed by this last visit. Will be back, because you’re a staple, but maybe not the time after next. We’ll see.“

“Went with family for a Birthday. We were a party of 6 about 5:10 or so. They said we could be seated right away and we were. All appetizers were excellent--fish tacos, mozzarella planks and chicken queso Dias and salads. All excellent. Various dinners of a special Filet mignon wrapped in bacon, risotto, blackened shrimp skewer and asparagus. The steak had a glaze of steak sauce of some sort blended with red wine. Another two persons chose the crab cake and New York strip with two sides, another lasagna dinner and last person ordered the honey infused broasted chicken half with mashed and vegetable of the day which was Veggie medley. We were al delighted with our dinner fare and apps and totally full but opted for deserts to go of Peanut Butter pie, Coconut cake and Creme Broulee. Everyone was verbal in saying they were so glad we went here for Birthday dinner. Thanks for the great time, quick table and excellent service. Hats off to Jordan our server.“

“If you are looking for fresh made to order delicious food, this is your place. It is not your typical restaurant. You place your order at the counter and pay, then it is delivered to your table.“

“Today my daughter and I enjoyed the most delicious lunch at One 13 Social in downtown Carlisle. Small plates are elegant and perfect for lunch. Mine was Spoonbread Shrimp, extraordinarily creative flavors : salty olive tapanade, savory grilled shrimp, and sweet cornbread with honey butter. New to their terrific menu, hope it stays!! I tip my hat to the chef.“

“A classic college town breakfast place. Good-tasting breakfast options and a lot of them in every imaginable combination with solid service delivered well. But be forewarned: it's cash only. So, come ready. And it closes in the early afternoon. Because it's a breakfast place.“

“Had a great time at 1794 Whiskey Bar in Carlisle! A great spot to enjoy a good drink and relax in a nice bar atmosphere. They have a good selection of whiskey, and I also tried the chicken pie, which was a nice addition to the experience. It’s always great to find a place where you can enjoy both drinks and good food. Overall, a solid spot to check out if you’re in Carlisle and looking for a relaxed evening with whiskey and food!“

“Beautiful course. Great conditions“

“Generous portions (which exceeded the expectation for the price they charged) of excellent quality food, with warm n welcoming staff, and a generally great atmosphere!
What more could you ask for?

I cannot praise and/or recommend this establishment highly enough!

C'mon folks, what are you waiting for? 😍“

“I cannot say no more but the chicken and waffles were delicious and the service was good my first time there won't be my last“

“Absolutely Adorable place. The waiters were so nice, and we later became friends. I can and am recommending this place for anyone who just wants to relax and eat some great food.“

“Stopped in Sunday after church. Parking lot was full but available seating inside. Really like the bright, open atmosphere and all the windows. Orders taken and food arrived promptly. The writer had the western omelet with home fries and toast. All of us were happy with our meals. We will be returning!“

“Had a very delicious meal our waitress was great and the atmosphere was nice..I will certainly be recommending this place.“

“Home cooked meals and wonderful staff.“

“No matter your preference, there is something for everyone at Twirly Top! If you’re hungry for a meal, our family’s go-to favorites are the kids mini hamburger meal, the BCB, the Works Burger, or the Cowboy Burger. We enjoy making it a meal or adding a side of fries to share! Though your meal will be filling, a stop at Twirly Top isn’t complete without dessert! Be on the lookout for seasonal flavors and specials, but if you’re a creature of habit the ice cream menu lists creations for anyone’s taste. A cone or dish is a great way to try unique flavor twists, and we love a good twister with 2 mix-ins of our choice. The classic sundae is hard to beat, but if you’re really hungry the banana split is delicious. Don’t miss the dairy/gluten free mountain slushy options or frozen lemonade. Yum! No matter if you’re a local, visiting one of the campgrounds or parks, or looking for a new place to try, Twirly Top has friendly service and is a consistent, reliably delicious destination.“

“It is now closed, for the foreseeable future.“

“Very relaxing and good food.“

“My favorite spot for lunch. Quality food made to order while you wait. Sit on the porch, play checkers or brush up on your trivia.“

“Ordered take out for 4 adults on Saturday evening. First time we ordered food from this establishment but we checked other reviews and decided to give it a try. . Excellent. We ordered a couple of some evening specials: 1/2 Rack of ribs with chicken and 2 sides; another night special, pork and kraut with mashed as side. I might add if those mashed were not home made, I want the name of them--delicious, others ordered a cheesesteak sub. and the roll was absolutely delicious., with onions and peppers, fries and also another of mozz sticks with marinara, plain cheeseburger and fries. Everything was delicious and order perfect and they said only 15-20 time for pick up. The only thing that could have been better is if the pork and kraut meal and the rib & chicken meal came with dinner rolls or garlic bread. But no biggie. Would highly recommend and the 4 adults who ordered for this meal have all said will definitely go back. Great Job Mays!!!“

“Lunch on Monday. Party of 14. Food was good all around.“

“Pizza was so delicious and fresh, Jose Sal took care of a party of 10+ people in one go, all by himself!!!! definitely underated and became my favorite pizza joint!!!“

“I frequent Johnny Joes. And I think people get the wrong idea about what kinda of bar Johnny Joes is. It isn’t your fancy pants bar, crazy mixologist, wild beers, life changing food. It is however a reliable place to always get consistent quality food and affordable drinks. It wouldn't hurt if they cleaned the bathrooms every once and awhile but it’s a great time otherwise. They have lottery tickets, pool tables, darts, PA skill machines and a TouchTunes. Sounds standard for a bar but it’s hard to find one this close to home anymore. Smoking is allowed as-well.

Parking: Pretty much unlimited parking. You could easily park a couple bobtails in the parking lot, even with the trailers attached they’d have space to move.“

“We just left Mechanicsburg restaurant and Kiki was our server. She was an absolute blessing to us. She's very friendly and a great server. If in Mechanicsburg, please ask for Kiki. She's beautiful inside and out. Thank you fo making our visit a great one.

“Great night after we parked the Corvette and sped walk to get right in. Food was amazing although it took a bit it was understandable. It was a big rush night with the Corvette Parade and Party in town. We had fish and chips, two different salads and a Rueben. All cooked to perfection. The atmosphere is great and our waitress very friendly. The beer selection is gigantic. Must go back when we are back in Carlisle. Thank you.“

“The food is great and 99% of the staff is excellent besides the 2 younger gentlemen that check IDs at the door. They’re absolute scumbags.“

“We ate here for the first time last night for boyfriend’s birthday. I had made a reservation and we were seated right away. Everything we had was absolutely fantastic. From the pretzel covered mozzarella squares to the agave fish tacos (soooo good), to the elephant ear we had for dessert! We also had a flight to help us choose what we wanted a full pour of to drink. I went with the sour nitro beer (Wildest Dreams) and my boyfriend had the Grinnin’ Grizzly… both of which were excellent. On the way out we picked up some bottled soda to take home. All the staff were super friendly and our waitress was very attentive as well. Overall amazing experience and we will definitely be back again. Thank you for a wonderful evening!“

“Great food but I would rather order my food online instead of having to order over the phone. Even when the online ordering website did work it didn't include ordering wings just the other food items. Sometimes it's hard to understand the person over the phone when the place is loud.“

“Honestly, this is one of the best bars around. Great atmosphere, good vibes, and excellent service. I especially want to give a shoutout to the gentleman (soccter) working the day shift. He’s always professional, friendly, and treats customers with respect. You can tell he genuinely cares about his job and goes above and beyond to make everyone feel welcome. Big respect to him. If you’re looking for a great bar with amazing service, this is definitely the place to be.“

“We were a little nervous driving in not knowing if it would be weird to stop in for food and boy were we happy we went! The pickleback wings are phenomenal and Friday was $1 wings all day. All of the food and dressings were fresh and craft. Friendly, attentive service and great prices. Make the stop off the turnpike. You won’t regret it!“

“Great job with service and food for group of 25! Well done!“

“Food is quite good. Alcoholic drinks are very reasonably priced. They make an excellent virgin Pina colada for those who prefer a non-alcoholic drink. Staff are very courteous and helpful.
I do find it a bit chilly though. But then I'm 76. A sweater fixes that concern very nicely:)“

“Friendly staff, good service and good food.“
