“Our group tried to make reservations for March 16, 2024. This business was called and a female answered and stated the Manager would call back, he never did. She called back and the male manager answered and stated that he called her back two days prior. She only called the day before. Then he said he called he back the day she called and she told him that he did not. So a lieing manager. We we had 15 people interested in coming to your establishment, I would think it would have been a couple hundred dollars, but you refused us. YOUR LOSS. Hopefully anyone from our group will never patronize your business. It would have been my first time since we are driving to meet the others that are from Duncansville/Altoona area. I would give you a ZERO review. The business down the street was more than happy to accommodate us with open arms. YOUR LOSS!“

“Excellent service. Our server was Billy. Great food.“

“What a gem that I stumbled upon! Creative and well executed! The cold and hot shareable apps were arguably as good (if not better) than the ones I love at Beauty & Essex at the Cosmo in Vegas. Cafe Fresco is a must stop for any foodie traveling through Harrisburg!“

“We came here for dinner after a tournament my daughter had today. Food was so so good . We had a brisket wood fire pizza , salad and my daughter had a chicken sandwich. We were waited on by Betsy . So nice and super helpful when it came to helping us pick from their menu / beer selection since it was our first time here . Would definitely recommend!“

“We had dinner this evening at the Water Shed Pub. What an enjoyable evening!!!! The appetizer we started with was the karaage chicken. I can’t explain how the flavors come together for this dynamic appetizer but, Wow! It was fantastic!!! Our entrees of the scallop po boy…..( yum!!! )…… and the seafood enchiladas……. ( oh my goodness!!! ). …were delightful!! So, so delicious!!!! Sweet potato pie and pumpkin cheesecake ice cream were an amazing ending to a superb meal!!! We’ll definitely be back soon! There’s lots more on the menu that we can’t wait to try!!!“

“Swinging little downtown spot in view of Capitol. Great crowd for a Thursday. Good bluesy band. Excellent martini and Caesar salad!“

“We enjoyed the casual atmosphere yet sophisticated menu and food selections. We tried different items during 3 visits - swordfish, scallops and seafood special. All were delicious! We also had mussels in beer broth and chicken flatbread - both excellent choices for appetizers or light meal. Staff is friendly and professional. Would definitely make it a stop on our next trip to the Harrisburg PA area.“

“I’m not sure how we have never heard of CSG. But I’m happy we stumbled upon CSG! For once I’m happy I came to my girls basketball practice! We decided to try this place (thanks coach) this is better than all the places Near me lol I’ll definitely drive the extra 30 minutes for the amazing food, good service, and 27 Pepsi’s! 😂 WE WILL BE BACK! See ya real soon!“

“Great food for the price. We enjoyed the hunters chicken, sausage stroganoff and the roasted duck. The duck flatbread was delicious as well and the potato soup was velvety and yummy.“

“We drive in from Newville just for the food and friendly service! Been a fan since they opened! Victor and the gang are totally worth a drive! thanks again!“

“Good food and service. Soup lovers beware! The bowl of soup is the EXACT amount as the cup of soup! I ordered a cup of soup and asked for an empty bowl. When I poured the cup in it it filled the bowl! Also, I was charged $3 for a small foam cup of iced tea for my three-year-old granddaughter, which is a bit ridiculous!“

“Great food and healthy drinks �“

“Staff was not great me and my friend went to wash our hands and my friend didn’t even run he just skipped to the bathroom and the staff yelled at us for “running”. But overall the Taphouse burger was REALLY good I recommend you guys try it,food was great and the tables and the place was great ⭐️“

“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.“

“Friendly staff, reasonable price and good food.“
