“Place is really cool inside.. love the huge TV screen in the center and it’s a neat atmosphere although it was pretty empty. Cheesesteak eggrolls and Bougie Burger were delish, Smash burger was average and the pork sandwich was disappointing. French fries are advertised as seasoned but seemed like regular to me.. maybe you have to ask specifically for the seasoned… not sure. Will go back but the food seemed inconsistent with the last two times my family was here. They raved about it before so I excited to check it out!!“

“Very friendly and a lot of fun. Awesome people as well!!“

“Excellent place, food, and service. I can honestly say that, after visiting many states and several restaurants over the past two years, this is the best of them all. It's a hidden gem that my family and I discovered today. They should open more restaurants in other locations!“

“I love it here Jessica,Laura great date night

“From the moment you step in until you leave you are valued. Frank met us when we arrived insured our meals were up to his and his wife's standards. I have eaten meals at some of the finest dining restaurants around the country. What makes this different? One it is caring from service to ownership. Second, they are culinary chef's and its shows in the taste as well the presentation. I ate vegetables that I usually leave on the side, because it was hard to leave food on the plate. We usually have leftovers, but honestly the portions we appropriate for the price. This is not kid's place. This is a great place for adults to enjoy a meal that is the Best in Berks County and probably beyond. I have been to 48 states, and we usually go where the recommendations are. If you live anywhere near this place and you want a meal that you won't regret, please pick up the phone and call. You will never be disappointed. The best duck I have ever had. Really, you will not pick a wrong dish. Say hi to Frank, he really enjoys knowing that you came.“

“Five stars all around!
I go here almost every single day, and it never misses—from breakfast to lunch and dinner, they have you covered! Hands down my absolute favorite spot. The owner is truly the best, always so welcoming, kind, and attentive. The food is consistently incredible (the chicken taquitos and the loaded chocolate strawberry French toast are flawless), but you cannot leave without trying his natural drinks. The piña coladas are absolute top-notch and made to perfection! 5 stars all around for the food, the vibe, and the amazing service.“

“The food is fabulous. The best Part. Dutch cooking.“

“Bring your kids, your parents, your friends… tasty food, sensible prices.“

“This is a solid and affordable diner-like restaurant. The best feature is the unlimited soup and salad bar which seems well monitored for freshness, availability and cleanliness. The hack here is to get the salad/soup bar and order the meal to go.“

“Food is delicious, excellent bartenders and cool atmosphere. The ambiance of an upscale neighborhood restaurant/bar with friendly staff“

“I've dined there no less than 25 times in the past year or 2 and never had a bad meal! Allison is the best waitress I've ever had anywhere!“

“we had dinner Thursday night, the special seafood menu was great! The food was excellent and we had a wonderful waitress! Can't wait to return!“

“I enjoy stopping by the Third Rail for dinner or after our weekly golf league. The food is outstanding and the staff is very attentive. Third Rail has a relaxed atmosphere and is a great place to meet friends or unwind. It is worth your time and money!“

“Our Lunch Bunch group of 29 had a fun time today...Thanks for feeding our hungry crowd!“

“Had the best time last night with a party of 8. All appetizers and dinners were delicious. I cannot stop thinking about the homemade tomato Gorgonzola vinaigrette. I almost licked my plate. You cannot beat this homemade food. We will be eating here regularly and will tell all of our friends!“

“I was just there today and the one young lady she was very polite she was so professional.“

“Have been eating lunch here with the LHP crew regularly for the past few months!! Great food!!“

“It is a is a quaint little bar and restaurant. The atmosphere is very warm and welcoming. I enjoyed my smashed burger tacos, fries, and Mojito. You enter through the tavern up front, followed by the regular restaurant in the back, with Patio seating, off to the side of the restaurant. The staff are very friendly. Very reasonable priced.“

“Aniyza and Niki are two of the best bartenders I have ever had. They both go above and beyond and always extremely pleasant. I never have an empty drink or bad experience with either of them.“

“If you’re looking for a solid dining experience in Wyomissing, Coastal Grille is absolutely worth a visit. I’ll be honest, I didn’t know much about this place going in, but I’m really glad I went and I’ll definitely be back. Walking in, the first thing you’ll notice is a beautiful, large fish tank built right into the wall on your right. The restaurant is dim and upscale-feeling, but still very family-friendly and not loud or overstimulating, so you can actually have a conversation. They have both booths and tables, and the space is very open and spread out. As a parent, you can even strategically seat your family in view of the fish tank or the windows to give the kids something to look at. It’s great for a casual family dinner, a date night, or even a birthday celebration. The restaurant is wheelchair accessible with no ramps, you can roll right in to your table. It’s located in a plaza but set apart, so parking was never an issue. Plenty of spots, including handicap parking up front with just a short walk to the entrance. They have a solid variety on the menu including alligator bites, burgers, pasta, salads, and more. It is on the higher end price wise. Most entrees start around $14 and up, and even the kids meals begin at $8.90. The cocktail menu is extensive and the dessert menu is worth a look too. They also have a lunch menu where prices vary a bit more favorably. I ordered the Coastal Cheddar cheeseburger burger with no tomatoes and it was excellent. Very fresh, well seasoned, and served with shoestring fries that were equally on point. They also bring out a ciabatta loaf with butter to start, which was a really nice touch. Food came out quickly (always a plus). The staff is genuinely incredible. There’s a tag team mentality where anyone on the floor can help you, refill your drink, or check on your table. My server was very attentive, and even when they got busy someone always stepped in. No reservations needed, at least when I went which was on a Sunday around 1pm. Highly recommend!“

“Applebees has a kids eat free? Plus ages 10 to 18 years old. Might dine at restaurant only (not) bar area.“

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at an incredible Guatemalan restaurant, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. From the moment I walked in, the warm and colorful decor transported me straight to the heart of Guatemala. The staff was incredibly friendly, greeting us with genuine smiles and offering helpful suggestions for first-time visitors. The menu was rich with traditional dishes, each one promising bold, authentic flavors.

We started with the antojitos, and the pupusas were perfectly crisp on the outside and filled with warm, cheesy goodness. The chuchitos, small corn tamales with a savory tomato sauce, were delightful and full of flavor. For the main course, I ordered the Pepián, a thick, aromatic stew with tender chicken and a rich blend of roasted spices—it was beyond amazing. My partner had the Jocon, a traditional green sauce chicken dish, and said it was one of the most flavorful meals they’ve ever had.

Every bite tasted like a home-cooked Guatemalan meal made with love. The portions were generous, and the prices were more than fair for the quality. The homemade tortillas were fresh and the perfect accompaniment to every dish. The beverages were just as memorable—the rosa de jamaica was refreshing and naturally sweet, while the atol de elote offered a comforting, creamy finish.

The ambiance was relaxed yet festive, with traditional Guatemalan music playing softly in the background. Service was prompt, attentive, and knowledgeable. We felt truly welcomed, like we were part of the family. Even the presentation of the dishes was beautiful—colorful, rustic, and inviting. Dessert was a standout as well, especially the rellenitos de plátano filled with sweetened black beans and dusted with sugar.

This restaurant is a hidden gem that deserves all the recognition it can get. I’ve already recommended it to several friends and can’t wait to return. If you’re looking for an authentic taste of Guatemala, look no further. This place offers not just food, but a cultural experience that warms the heart and soul. service is great“

“This place is so cute 😍 French toast was super good 🥰“

“Great variety of ready to eat meal options. Takes away meal planning and keeps us eating healthy!“

“I have never had a bad experience, always fresh, creamy and delicious, with a lot of stuff that you can look around and purchase if you wanted to great staff great ice cream.“

“This restaurant and staff is the absolute best!! The food is always spectacular, and the staff is so friendly, personable and hard working. I can’t say enough about their food! Always great quality ingredients and their service always goes above and beyond. Highly recommend!!“

“Our server Melissa was great! She was very attentive and checked on us frequently. Our food took long and she kept checking on us and apologizing and they gave us dessert on the house for the inconvenience. The only negative was that the food wasn’t good but everything else was great.“

“Deluxe is our go to for breakfast any time of day. Just like being at home, but you don't have to do the dishes. Owner and staff are always smiling.“

“We cannot speak highly enough about Stokesay, their entire team, and, most importantly, Hannah Kufro, our Wedding Coordinator that we worked with! My wife and I signed our venue contract one-year to the date ahead of our big day, with a different coordinator, one who ultimately ended up transitioning to a different organization just a week before our tasting was scheduled. For a couple planning a wedding, especially so close to their big day, this would normally have been an incredibly stressful change to hear about, however, we were expeditiously contacted by Hannah and met her days later at our tasting – immediately after meeting her we knew we were in great hands, and we both agree that our initial impression was spot on. Hannah’s attention to detail, flexibility, and knowledge have continued to impress ourselves, our parents, and our guests who experienced a phenomenal wedding just this past weekend. She not only hit the ground running with our event, but confirmed several details and was able to work with us to ensure our wedding day was as perfect as possible. While I have personally sent messages to several friends I know who are engaged and looking for venues, I wanted to share this note here for those couples looking for venues – Stokesay should 100% be on your list; the charm, history, venue, and staff will all make your big day as perfect as you could ever dream of – if anything, just go check it out – once you see this in person you’ll see exactly what we are talking about. With deepest gratitude, Blake and Lindsay Tobias“

“My family and I came to dinner last night for my birthday. The service was great and the food was delicious! Thank you for a good birthday experience!“

“We stopped in for brunch and had such a great experience! Our server, Callie, was absolutely wonderful—super friendly, attentive, and made the whole meal even better. My boyfriend ordered the State Hill Loaded Bloody Mary and boy was it loaded… totally worth it! I went with the BOGO mimosa deal, and for the price, you seriously cannot beat it. For food, we highly recommend the Shrimp Eggs Benedict and the Wagyu Meatloaf Bowl. Both were delicious and so satisfying. Overall, great drinks, great food, and great service. We’ll definitely be back!“

“We go regularly to Cross Roads, the food is always very good, but yesterday was disappointed ordered a Swiss Mushroom burger, which was a frozen patty at 13.99 with fries. I was hoping for a real nice juicy burger“

“My bartender, Kirsten, was so helpful to me and my party. We came in after a long day at the hospital, she took time to walk us through the new food and cocktail menu and couldn’t have been more pleasant! Her knowledge of beverages was outstanding and we had the best visit! Cannot wait to come back, and visit her and this amazing establishment. I’ve already told friends to go in and ask for her, she is rare gem in a redundant town.“

“The service was great and so was the food! We got the fried mozzarella, the frog burger and the caprese Flatbread. Everything was so delicious! We highly recommend! Can't wait to come back and try some new things“

“10/10 all way around!! Julia was our server and she was super sweet!! Was very informative about the food and what options we had to choose from. She was very friendly!!! The food was amazing!!! We got 4 different dishes so we could try a little bit of everything! The coffee was absolutely perfect! We both got cappuccinos. We also got the cannoli french toast, cream chipped beef, garden omelette and the reuben. The sweet potato fries are light and crispy. Definitely on the pricey side but was 100% worth it for our anniversary date. We love to support local small businesses!!“

“Best breakfast in the area!
Friendly staff! Generous portions and quality food — they use real eggs for all of their dishes (I personally watched them crack >100 eggs from my table. One reviewer was reporting they used powdered eggs which is simply not true). Only the best at Chatty’s!

Don’t forget your wallet — cash only, my friends!“

“they make a great long island iced tea“

“I had the best haddock that I’ve ever had there! Loved it! 😍“

“2 adults and a kid had a decent meal at a decent price. Our server, while seeming scattered, was actually super attentive to our needs! The coffee isnt the best coffee of all time but it is good enough to drink. I think that would be the only complaint if I had any at all, but it did not ruin the experience at all!“

“Yum is the word of the day“

“Them collard greens has never disappointed 🙌🏾🔥“

“Fist time eating at this place
Steak was made to protection, crispy brussel sprouts were out of this world, chicken wings were mosit, crispy, seasoned well. Bread was rye and good. Price was not bad for 3 people $70 dollars. Will recommend others to eat here.“
