“The girl that was taking our order was too busy speaking with the other men behind the counter and had to stop taking our order just to speak with the men instead of us. They're all rude and joking and making negative comments as we were trying to order They need to get better staff.“
“My experience with Lancaster Pie & Coffee began before even entering. My husband and I were reading the sign and then when we finally headed in the owner was there opening the door for us, because he saw my husband was using a cane. Once we were inside we were met with the prettiest cafe, local art to peruse, the incredible smell of pie and the warmest smile from the woman behind the bar / register. The vibes were top notch. So what about the pie? If you call yourself a pie place the pie should be, at least- good. Well, the pie is actually quite amazing. We tried the apple, blueberry and the lemon. The lemon was the showstopper, but all three were spectacular. It felt like coming home and home is perfect and has great pie. Their hot chocolate was good and included rustic homemade marshmallows. The tea selection was fantastic. One of my favorite things (and there were many from my experience), was the quiche. I've tried the quiche in just about every establishment in downtown Lancaster that offers it- none compare to the quiche here. I ordered the Swiss mushroom and it was a revelation. I feel bad for all of the other quiche makers everywhere else. So far behind..... Overall, I was immediately love stricken with the business. They deliver on every level. And the kindness and charm of the employees, owner and hostess must not be diminished. I have a handful of businesses in downtown Lancaster I order from or frequent quite a bit and the owners who are always there are rarely ever friendly or chatty, which is fine, but I wish there was more friendliness. Pie & Coffee has amazing food, fantastic pies and beverages and then the staff is so welcoming and sweet. It's all the things.“
“I recently tried Rachel's Cafe and had the California Chicken Crepe and the Strawberry Crepe. Both were delicious! The California Chicken Crepe had tender chicken, fresh veggies, and a creamy sauce, all wrapped in a delicate crepe. The Strawberry Crepe was sweet and bursting with fresh flavor. The service was great, and the prices were even better, low price for sure. Highly recommended for a satisfying meal or sweet treat.“
“This place is a gem, my husband and I have been coming here with our two under two. The food is amazing, I'm vegan so I always get the delicious crispy falafel or falafel pita. Everything on the menu is very clear on what's vegan. The hummus is great too, pitas delicious and warm.My husband who isn't vegan enjoys the beef gyro and says it's flavorful and gets it everytime. We also ordered the chicken bites for kids and ours gobble them up.Check out this spot, it's nice and quiet for us but wouldn't mind to see more folks and kids. There's a nice play area for little kiddos to entertain themselves.If you're getting take out ask for the veggies on the side so they don't get too wilted with the heat of the protein.Dietary restrictions: I'm vegan, check out the falafel and pita- so good.Kid-friendliness: Clean play area for kids.“
“Drove past this coffee shop so many times and finally was able to stop by! I got a hot caramel latte and a cheese danish. Both were delicious! Went in the afternoon and wait time was short. The staff was very kind. I also loved that there was a little bible verse on the cup! The design is lovely! I will be back to try more flavors and support this sweet little business!“
“We are a family of 4 (ages 5 and 8) and we loved it!! Best part: a little nook with some toys and books. This made it possible for our kids to play and my husband and I could have a conversation without interruptions! The food was WONDERFUL, all of the staff was lovely, the bathrooms were clean and the decor and atmosphere are awesome. If we ever come back to this area we will definitely be back!!“
“These are the best donuts we've ever had and we're foodies. They're like a delicious mix between a croissant and donut. Literally want them every day and so glad we have such a delicious local donut shop. The atmosphere and decor inside is so cute also.“
“What a great spot!!! I took my kids there for the first time since we had a little bit of time to spare, the service was excellent, it was inviting and the staff were all so patient (since the 3 of us were new the entire Oola bowl experience). Definitely going back...and so lucky we are close! Keep up the great work & service. Cheers.Parking: We parked off of the main street (Old Philadelphia Pike), it's the back of the store entrance but looks like the front. No problem parking.Kid-friendliness: Patient with those that are unsure.“
“The Bolo was the bessssssst breakfast sandwhich I’ve ever eaten. Might try on a different bagel next time- ordered on salt and probably would be better on everything or sesame considering bologna is already so salty. Also had walnut/fig cream cheese on cinnamon raisin which was also perfect. Coffee also tasted super fresh and artisanal for a regular drip?? All around superb.“
“Pretty sweet coffee shop in downtown Lancaster. Coffee is good and the food was ok. I ordered a savory pastry that could have been warmed up but I was not offered that option. Be wary digital nomads, there is no Wifi offered at this shop, despite the name and numerous outlets under the seats.“
“It has the ice cream shop vibe that we all remember from our childhood, at least I do. It's a pleasant wait in a calming environment, it's fun to watch them work, even if it's not my order. It tastes great, and is so creamy. This place rocks.“
“OMG !!! Such amazing cupcakes!!! We bought 6 and received a discount for each cupcake. Every cupcake we bought was absolutely delicious!! Staff was so helpful. Iced coffee was delicious. Best cupcakes I have ever had . !!! Must go and visit this place !!!“
“Been frequenting both locations for a year and a half. Even when I’m not getting a coffee, I’ll grab a bag of their whole beans for my home setup (minor bias I’m a fan of coffee in general)Pricing is on the higher side but the quality is there; They set the gold standard for a great cup of coffee. Treat yourself!Also those vegan chocolate chip cookies are excellent“
“Parking: New Holland Family Restaurant next door to Comfort Inn, which is very good, share the same front parking lot, therefore, sometimes restaurant and inn are both busy. There is much free parking in the outdoor mall across Pennsylvania State Route 23 East and West from the Comfort Inn and New Holland Family Restaurant.“
“I’ve eating their ice cream for a few years which has always been fantastic but yesterday I tried the soup for the first time and oh my goodness, it’s amazing! This will be my go to place for soup from now on.Dietary restrictions: Soup was gluten free.“
“Such great service and I couldn’t have asked for a better result. The girl that helped us (can’t remember her name) was so helpful, patient, and thorough. They nailed it and we got so many compliments on the looks and taste of the cake.Also got a chai tea latte and a pastry when we were there ordering the cake and both were delicious. Definitely recommend and happy I found this place. Will certainly be back.“
“I finally understand the hype... Locals are obsessed with Dosie Dough because of their hours (open on Sunday), quick, good food, and free coffee multiple days throughout the month thanks to local businesses. Sometimes the baked goods could be a bit fresher in my opinion, but that's about it. They have some healthier options too like granola bars, 4 seed cookies, etc. I like that they have oat milk in their fridge for drip coffee.“
“Consistently good coffee. Good variety of drip coffee and espresso based drinks, and a good selection of teas. There is a small offering of food and pastries. Including a couple of vegan options.There is a variety of coffee beans for sale.Staff is very friendly and there is plenty of seating. It is a nice environment to sit down and work but the tables are not large so no space to spread out.I love coming here every time I’m in the area!“
“this is by far our favorite coffee spot to come too on the weekends!! such friendly employees, coffee is always soo good and their lotus drinks are a fun tasty drink to have as well!the little notes they leave on your coffee will definitely brighten up your day!highly recommend if you’re in the area !“
“Went for a February Saturday morning right when they opened. The staff was friendly and the food and coffee were delicious. We got the shakshouka for 2. Food took about 20 minutes, but that was probably because they were just opening. I would definitely go back. Also great ambiance inside.“
“Came here on Labor Day at 12:30pm (thanks for being open!) There were a lot of people working on their computers I would assume from the surrounding college. We were fortunate enough to find some seating outside, while there were space inside, everyone kind of seemed in grind mode. Service was pretty straightforward for coffee shop. The aesthetic is very hipster coffee shop vibes and decor is admirable. They do not make their own syrups however, I do believe they make their little snack choices (vegan cakes and snack stuff) in house. There seem to be a lot of coffee bean choices and some yummy drink specials. I chose the cappuccino at first but was given a 12 oz latte like drink that was too exciting. The espresso didn’t really carry through my choice of milk: oat (although I did ask for whole milk-no biggie though.) I later purchased a cup with peanut brittle syrup and ice to make an iced latte. The flavor of the syrup was a nice addition and carried the coffee. My friends caramel iced coffee was average. Good coffee flavor but not too aggressive and on borderline of water-like in my opinion. I was appreciative of the condiment bar they had for the coffee including simple syrup. The coffee cake my friend got was a little underwhelming and dry, but the vegan blueberry coffee cake with pecans was quite delicious and flavorful. I received it cold in wrapped in saran wrap, so it’s most definitely a great workplace/take out coffee shop. Would be a pleasant place to return to. Thanks guys :)One double shot cappuccino with oat milk, and a blueberry vegan pecan cake thing came to 11 dollars.“
“This place is my staple place for when I want to get a good coffee, a yummy snack/meal, all while getting some work done on my laptop. I haven't had one bad thing here yet. I highly recommend their salt and pepper fries - a VERY generous helping so more than enough to share with other people. It's also very convenient because it's right down the road from me!“
“Super kind employees, amazing lattes, and food thats almost always worth it. There's nothing bad I could say about this cafe even if I wanted to! Its definetley stop by and try it out.I'd personally recommend one of their paninis alongside an Iced Sweater Weather[Maple & Dirty Chai w cinnamon]“
“AMAZING PLACE!!! MORE AMAZING PEOPLE!!! I am a tour operator and had a group at Tanger Outlet Lancaster. Long and the short... I had a client in need of seat, and an outlet for his portable O2 in a standing room only Butter & Bean. So, one of the staff hears my plea for help and Jessie, the owner comes out. She makes arrangements for not only a seat near an outlet but grabs an extension cord to allow for some movement. The patrons in the entire cafe made way for Jessie and my client. I ask if we can just chill for an hour or so, till he gets charged up and she wouldn't hear of it. "Stay as long as you need to", she said. So, I bought my client a coffee and a sandwich, which was amazing, bought some coffees for those that made space for him, and invited the entire bus group to join us and support Butter and Bean. And we sure did. The food and coffee were great, but the spirit, the vibe and the whole experience I needed to share. Oh, did I mention it was Black Saturday, November 25, 2023, at 1230p!!! Who does that??? Well, Butter and Bean does! So, get great coffee and really good eats, and support a business that we will proudly support in every way.“
“Tin Roof is amazing! I love their signature cold brew and their seasonal flavors are delish, too. Their food is fresh and very tasty. They have great service and a nice atmosphere. I love stopping at Tin Roof for a quick coffee or a bite to eat. They even have doggy ice cream!PS: The raspberry chai (a seasonal drink) is sooo good!“
“Super friendly. We were greeted upon entering and showed a menu. Tried the butter latte (delicious!) which was perfectly prepared. Chocolate croissant was divine. Pistachio macaron was oh so lovely, as was the dark chocolate lavender one. Great little coffee shop with welcoming staff. Honestly, we didn't find what we were looking for while shopping at Tanger outlets, but this coffee shop saved our trip and brightened our day!“
“First time to Pennsylvania. Super cool coffee shop/store combo! Grab a drink and walk around the store. I ordered a custom made shaken espresso (too much milk but still very good), friendship bread with butter (excellent!), and a Honey Bee latte (for my wife). Great vibe in a great town!“

“After being addicted to Dunkin' Donuts coffee for decades, I discovered Lancaster County Coffee Roasters at a local store. This is by far the best coffee I have ever had. I'm thoroughly addicted to Ross Street roast with Market House a close second. Do yourself a favor, go on their website and check out all their different coffees and buy some. You will enjoy superb coffee at reasonable prices.“
“So happy we found this breakfast place! Tons of gluten free options for breakfast. Beautiful atmosphere. Wooden elements and tables nicely contrast with the concrete floor. Very clean. Great drive through pick-up. 3 young employees keep the place and orders running smoothly.“
“I love this shop. I have been there many times. The donuts are always fresh and made to order. Today I got the spooky box. Nobody likes coconut in our house so we substituted one donut out and it was no problem at all. Customer service was great. The girl at the counter was friendly. She made the donuts quickly. The donuts are delicious as always! Return customer and will return in the future“
“Every time i'm visiting family in Lancaster I have to visit this copper cup in Lititz. Everyone is always so kind & helpful so it gives a really nice atmosphere. My order is a large iced matcha with whole milk. I love a good quality matcha and they get a 10/10 from me! It has just enough sweetness while still getting that tea taste. They blend it so it has a great frothy texture! It is a must try if you're in the area“
“Traveled all around for work and had coffee in many states and countries. This is the best of them all. I love making a stop here every time when I come home to see my sister. A must try for anyone in PA or passing through. Wasting your time any where else.“
“Was not expecting baked oatmeal, bagels, and treats from the local Ric's Breads bakery at this two-track train station! Service was quick and friendly. The drip coffee I got from their carafes was pretty good, hot, a few options available. And there are even a few tables outside, or you can sit on one of the lovely wooden benches as the morning light streams in from the windows of a lovely, clean train station. Love that this cafe is here now!“
“I grabbed breakfast here yesterday and have to say this is quite the hidden gem. The building and decor are so cozy and made me feel right at home. The owners have a dog who runs around the property and was just the sweetest thing, making the trip even more fun. I ordered a vanilla latte, which was good and had a strong espresso. I also ordered a brick house omelet to eat. Unfortunately it seemed like my omelet was forgotten about because they were in the middle of a rush, so I asked for it after 30 min. They then got it out quickly and it was delicious- filled with sausage, bacon, peppers, onions, and cheese. It was so big and came with toast, so I was stuffed by the time I was finished. Other than the service snafu, I really liked this cafe!“
“My husband isn't a coffee drinker, well that was until he tried their coffee. Beyond thankful that you have sugar free chocolate to add to his now new love, your coffee. I wrote an email to the manger of the Roasted Rooster, and she replied within hours with information that I am so very thankful for, because now I can get my husband a special Christmas gift. If you find yourself in the Kitchen Kettle and in need of a coffee or tea, do not hesitate to step inside. It's clean, friendly and delicious. We can't wait for our return in a few months to get some more coffee.“
“This cafe was small and cute. I came here for lunch and I really enjoyed their sandwich. However, they had forgotten the fruit on my friend’s meal. The latte was presented beautifully and tasted even better. It was a pretty good experience!“
“Wonderful food and exceptional service. I have visited other locations of this franchise and this one is my favorite. the varied menu is quite tasty and i always order the teriyaki chicken onigiri and "milk strike" oreo wow. it is always well prepared even during busy hours compared to other locations. great!Dietary restrictions: I do not consume milk, and they offer delicious "milk strike" prepared with lactaid.“
“Food was great and a welcome alternative to the offerings at the hotel we stayed at, which was just a stone’s throw away. Cute walk-up window and benches for sitting on the sidewalk. We came at a good time on a Sunday, but a line formed soon after us and there was a a bit of a wait. Don’t go if you’re in a rush.“
“Just wanted to give a shout out that all the cookies that Laura makes are amazing from the drop cookies (which if you take and melt a marshmallow like you would making a smore and sandwich in between her drop cookies it is amazing)Plus her decorated cookies puts a smile on peoples faces because they are so cute and some people have a hard time eating them because of that. LOLAlso the baby shower cookies she made for my two nieces this year were absolutely adorable and delicious. Keep the cookies coming. Thanks so much!“
“If you crave sos (creamed chipped beef on toast), they've got it. This one has an added egg and English muffin. A bit heavy but nostalgic. The French toast was very good and seemed to use two batters with a thorough custard soak and a crispy outer coat. Mocha was so good I had two.“
“I was in the area to work the Lancaster Tattoo and Art Festival. I stopped here over the weekend with my boyfriend. I had the street corn hash for breakfast and OH MY GOD. I can see how they needed to keep it on the menu. It was absolutely delicious. I wish I had one of these shops closer to home. The Chai is to die for as well. Food was delicious and the staff was very friendly. I hope to come back sometime soon!“
“We did to-go coffee. Waited about 5 minutes on a busy Saturday morning. Staff was friendly and quick to great us. It was charming and cozy inside. My wife ordered a mocha which she said was quite good.Parking: Free parking lot in shopping complex, very short walk.Wheelchair accessibility: curb cuts in sidewalk with no stairs to entrance. Wide enough doors.“
“The Food was so delicious will definitely come back . We had the Philly cheese steak crepe, chicken bacon ranch crepe and classic waffle topped with fresh fruit and whip cream . The staff were very friendly . Place is very clean. Lots of pretty plants .“
“Seriously one of the most breathtaking coffee shops you’ll see , a fireplace , greenery and you can see through a window of the coffee roaster they use! The coffee was good , could’ve been a little stronger but that’s a personal opinion! Their pastries and food were straight up delicious! It’s a cozy environment for sure , so be prepared to stay there longer than you should!“
“I've been buying their coffee for months! They roast it fresh and it's incredibly good quality with plenty of options of flavored and unflavored. I love their light roasts, and my two favorite flavored coffees are vanilla macadamia nut and Aztec! I highly recommend this coffee producer!“
“My go to cafe, I’ve personally worked in coffee shops and food for over five years and the owner runs this place really well, amazing staff and good food. The specials are always changing and they never skimp on portion size or quality! Their bagels are the closest I’ve come to fresh NYC style bagels in PA, and they make their own cream cheese flavors daily, they respect the schmear!“
“This starbucks is going to top all other starbucks in berks county I have to say the staff is incredible and the service they provide is superb. I went when they were doing that red holiday cup giveaway and that place was packed! But they still made sure they all had a pleasant experience 100/10!! :) Blessings to them!“
“ONLY PLACE YOU CAN FIND AMAZING NY STYLE, ITALIAN COOKIES!!!From Long Island, and this is only place I will go!I almost died when they told me $30 per pound for pignoli cookies...but everything else isn't as expensive.I'd try EVERYTHING if I could!It all looks so delicious!!“

“I order coffee from them online nearly every other month! Starbarn is one great espresso bean! 5lbs worth of coffee is great! Works great in our espresso machine. I've been buying their local coffee for over 7 years now! Always great quality! Love supporting a local store!“
“10/22/23 When our son got married here about 14 months ago, this was just opening up. I think it's a splendid addition to this gorgeous hotel. It's bright, clean, chill and relaxing to enjoy a coffee or breakfast item here. The staff is ultra pleasant and polite. Not only do they have fabulous light breakfast- lunch selections but feast your eyes on the case that has all on site hotel Pasteur chef creations. Not only are they beautiful but they are absolutely delicious made with fresh ingredients. It's so nice to sit here with a fresh cup of coffee and watch the sunrise. I'm so happy this beautiful cafe was added.“
